This work focuses on introducing new sustainable chemicals in the wool grease removal processes by aiming to understand effect of an eco-friendly solvent, cyclopentyl methyl ether (CPME), solvent-based extraction and, addition, impact protein hydrolyzate (WPH) as a biosurfactant derived from green hydrolysis scouring process. In solvent process assisted using CPME, CPME and presence four primar...

The application of a monolithic form of triphenylphosphine to the Ramirez gem-dibromoolefination reaction using flow chemistry techniques is reported. A variety of gem-dibromides were synthesised in high purity and excellent yield following only removal of solvent and no further off-line purification. It is also possible to perform the Appel reaction using the same monolith and the relationship...

inor i8obutanol. Removal of the lipid is accompanied by simultaneous release of the enzyme into true solution. No other organic solvent tested was effective in releasing the bound phosphatase, indicating a unique action of butanol. I wish to thank Dr M. Dixon, F.R.S., for his encouraging interest and advice during this work. This work was carried out while holding a Travelling Scholarship award...

[reaction: see text] An efficient, user-friendly procedure for the oxidation of alcohols using IBX is described. Simply heating a solution of the alcohol in the presence of suspended IBX followed by filtration and removal of the solvent gives excellent yields of the corresponding carbonyl compounds. We illustrate this procedure with a panel of primary and secondary alcohol substrates and note t...

Quick on the uptake: Following its identification during a targeted search, the intriguing crystal structure of 3,3',4,4'-tetra(trimethylsilylethynyl)biphenyl was investigated. Simple removal of the included solvent provides an organic crystal with an open microporous structure that has a striking similarity to that of zeolite A (see picture). Reversible adsorption of nitrogen and hydrogen gase...

We present a novel approach for fabricating monodisperse phospholipid vesicles with high encapsulation efficiency using controlled double emulsions as templates. Glass-capillary microfluidics is used to generate monodisperse double emulsion templates. We show that the high uniformity in size and shape of the templates are maintained in the final phospholipid vesicles after a solvent removal ste...

This work aimed to comprehensively examine the pretreatment efficiency of oil palm empty fruit bunches (EFB) using two different types deep eutectic solvent (DES) mixtures, i.e., choline chloride/imidazole (DES-I) and chloride/glycerol (DES-G) in terms pretreated EFB structural composition enzymatic hydrolysis. The influence temperature (55 °C, 90 125 160 195 °C), ratio (1:5, 1:10, 1:15, 1:20),...

Catalytic hydrogenolysis of Z-Gly-NH2 and Z-Ala-NH2 resulted in the corresponding free amides and carbamate salts. This observation is a further experimental proof that carbamic acid derivatives are intermediates of hydrogenolytic removal of carbobenzoxy group under neutral conditions. The ratio of the formation of the two compounds is dependent on the solvent, concentration and chemical struct...
