the efficient and environmentally friendly method for the one-pot synthesis of polyhydroquinolines has been developed in the presence of cuo nanoparticles. the multi-component reactions of aldehydes, dimedone, ethyl acetoacetate andammonium acetate were carried out under solvent-free conditions to afford some polyhydroquinoline derivatives. this method provides several advantages including high...

copper nanoparticles were fabricated by electro-reduction of cuso4solution in the presence of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctab) cationic surfactant as an additive through potentiostatic method. the prepared copper nanoparticles were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem) and electrochemical methods. the sem images reveal that the nanoparticles with diameters at about 70 n...

Biofabrication of metallic nanoparticles have attracted the researchers of various disciplines for the past few decades, due to their wide range of applications in the various fields of electronics, textiles industries, nano medicine, biopharmacy and biotechnology. Keeping in view the above important applications, we have successfully biosynthesized the silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using leaf e...

DNA-directed assembly of nano-objects as a means to manufacture advanced nanomaterial architectures has been the subject of many studies. However, most applications have dealt with noble metals as there are fundamental difficulties to work with other materials. In this work, we propose a generic and systematic approach for functionalizing and characterizing oxide surfaces with single-stranded D...

Nanoparticles have long been known and their biomedical potent activities proven that these can provide an alternative to other drugs. In the current study, copper oxide, nickel oxide copper/nickel hybrid NPs were biosynthesized by using Curcuma longa root extracts as a reducing capping agent, followed characterization via UV-spectroscopy, Fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), energ...

Objective(s): Antibacterial and antifungal nanocomposites are widely used in food packaging and pharmaceutical and medicine industries. Among the polymers of these nanocomposites, epoxy coatings are commonly used for health and industrial applications. The present study aimed to synthesize CuO nanoparticles using the chemical reduction method and characterized them by ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vi...

The petroleum industry requires the best materials to reverse the rock wettability to water-wet state which give significantly improved oil recovery.Nanoparticles are suggested as enhanced oil recovery potential agents to decrease viscosity and alter the wettability of reservoir towards more water-wet. This study provides new insights into CuO nanoparticles effects on wett...

Coriander leaves and seeds have been highly appreciated since ancient times, not only due to their pleasant flavors but also due to their inhibitory activity on food degradation and their beneficial properties for health, both ascribed to their strong antioxidant activity. Recently, it has been shown that coriander leaf extracts can mediate the synthesis of metallic nanoparticles through oxidat...

For the first time, ordered mesoporous ZnO nanoparticles have been synthesized by a template method. The electroplating after chemical plating method was creatively used to form copper film on the surface of the prepared ZnO, and then a CuO film-decorated ordered porous ZnO composite (CuO/ZnO) was obtained by a high-temperature oxidation method. In2O3 was loaded into the prepared CuO film-ZnO b...

CuO nanoparticle was found to be an efficient catalyst for the synthesis of flavanones derivatives from the reactions between 2-hydroxyacetophenones and aromatic aldehydes at room temperature. The protocol offers advantages in terms of higher yields, short reaction times, and mild reaction conditions, with reusability of the catalyst. The structures of the synthesized substituted flavanones wer...
