The effect of gamma and microwave irradiation on antioxidant and antimicrobial activities of Cinnamomum zeylanicum and Echinacea purpurea were investigated. In this study, all samples were exposed to gamma irradiation at doses 10, 15, 20 and 25 kGy and microwave irradiation at power of 100, 180 and 300 W for 5 min. In order to undergo the sequence expriments, the hydroalcoholic (EtOH 50%) extra...

michael addition of pyrimidine and purine nucleobases to substituted as well as unsubstituted α,β-unsaturated esters efficiently proceeds in the presence of catalytic amount of zinc oxide in ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide (zno/[bmim]br) under microwave irradiation to afford carboacyclic nucleosides, as biologically important compounds, in good to excellent yields and in short ...

A new dimeric orthopalladated complex was synthesized via reaction of 2,3-dimethoxy benzaldehyde oxime with palladium chloride and lithium chloride in methanol as solvent and sodium acetate as base at room temperature. The catalytic activity of this dimeric [Pd{C6H2(-CH=NOH)-(OMe)2-2,3}(µ-Cl)]2 complex as an efficient, air, and moisture tolerant catalyst was investigated in Mizoroki–Heck cross ...

a phosgene-free synthesis of symmetrical n,n'-disubstituted urea by the reaction of aromatic and aliphatic primary amines and urea promoted by  microwave irradiation in the presence of a suitable energy-transfer solvent such as n-n-dimethylacetamide is described.

As-may have been mentioned by previous speaker?,'the basic process of food irradiation does not differ in the physical sense from any other food processing techniques which involve the application of radiation energy to food. Thus ordinary or microwave cooking uses longer wavelength radiation while food irradiation employs the shorter wavelength of gamma irradiation produced by Co or Cs or by e...

sulfonic acid functionalized sba-15 as a nanoporous acid catalyst was used in the synthesis of 2-aryl benzoxazoles 4 by the condensation of 2-aminophenol 1 and benzoyl chlorides 2 under microwave irradiation in solvent free reaction conditions. the advantages of this methodology are good product yields (60-98%), being environmentally benign, short reaction times and easy work up.

nanocrystals of zno were prepared by microwave irradiation using zn (ii) acetate and triethanol amin (tea) as the starting materials and water as solvent. the nanocrystals of zno with hexagonal (wurtzite) structure were characterized by x-ray powder diffraction (xrd), transmission electron microscopy (tem), scanning electron microscopy (sem), uv-vis absorption and ftir spectroscopy techniques.

nano silica-h2so4 is an efficient and mild catalysis system for the regeneration of aldehyde from aldoximes. ketoximes are converted to amides by beckmann rearrangement in the presence of nano silica-h2so4. the reactions are carried out in solvent-free conditions under microwave irradiation (600 w) within 50-120 sec in good yields.

a new efficient method for the synthesis of carboacyclic nucleosides as biologically interesting compounds via aza-conjugate addition of pyrimidine nucleobases to a,β-unsaturated esters in the presence of catalytic amount of lioh.h2o (1.2-4.8 mol%) under microwave irradiation is described. this method affords the title compounds in good to excellent yields and in short reaction times.
