An efficient four-component synthesis of 1,2,4,5-tetrasubstituted imidazoles is described by one-step condensation of an aldehyde, benzil, ammonium acetate and primary aromatic amine with nanocrystalline magnesium aluminate in ethanol under ultrasonic irradiation. High yields, short reaction times, mild conditions, simplicity of operation and easy work-up are some advantages of this protocol.

As the aluminate base [LiAl(TMP)(2)(iBu)(2)] 1 displays halogen tolerance towards substituted aromatics, 4-halo-anisoles have been ortho-aluminated and electrophilically quenched to form synthetically useful multi-heterohalogenated anisoles, with the Al intermediates along the route structurally defined.

Hydration products of calcium silicates and calcium aluminates often are difficult to identify by X-ray methods. In this study the hydration products of the aluminate phase especially under the influence of additional chloride ions were studied. Special X-ray measurement conditions must be applied for accurate identification including 1. In situ control of relative humidity 2. Exclusion of CO2 ...

A number of root-repair materials have been developed by various manufacturers, including Mineral Trioxide Aggregate (MTA) that has adequate biological and physical properties of a good root repair material [1,2]. MTA has been used for apexification, perforation repair, root resorption, and as a root-end filling material. The main ingredients of MTA are silicate oxide, tricalcium oxide, tricalc...

In this work the reagent purification of aqueous solutions from sulfates with use red sludge Nikolaev alumina plant processes were investigated. This sludge, according to chemical analysis, contains a sufficiently large amount (up 18 %) and calcium oxide 10 along silicate iron oxides sodium aluminates. The ability aluminate be deposited solution in form sulfoaluminates was used purify water sul...
