A study is conducted to determine the amino acid, fatty acid, and carbohydrate content of breadfruit using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and gas chromatography (GC). An HPLC method is used for the determination of amino acids and fatty acids in breadfruit. Representative amino acid samples are derivatized with phenylisothiocianate and the resulting phenylthiocarbamyl derivatives...

The roles of silver ions and halides (chloride, bromide, and iodide) in the seed-mediated synthesis of gold nanostructures have been investigated, and their influence on the growth of 10 classes of nanoparticles that differ in shape has been determined. We systematically studied the effects that each chemical component has on the particle shape, on the rate of particle formation, and on the che...

Myeloperoxidase (MPO) structural analysis has suggested that halides and pseudohalides bind to the distal binding site and serve as substrates or inhibitors, while others have concluded that there are two separate sites. Here, evidence for two distinct binding sites for halides comes from the bell-shaped effects observed when the second-order rate constant of nitric oxide (NO) binding to MPO wa...

The hetero-anionic lead-free double perovskite halides are realized through mechanochemical synthesis by Tae Heon Kim and co-workers in article number 2201119. degree of anion substitution is tunable inducing manipulation the band gaps emitted colors anionic-mixed halides. gap engineering via exchange applicable to fabricate optoelectronic devices with high performance.

Condensation and cyclization of 5-hydroxy- 1,2,4- thiadiazol-2-yl hydrazine 1 with pyruvic acid, phenacyl bromide, propargyl bromide and ally1 bromide afforded compounds 2,5,7 3, 4 ,6 and 8 respectively, Reaction of 1 with epichforohydrine afforded 4-hydroxy-N-[5-hydroxy- 1 ,3,4-thiadiazoly1] pyrazolidine 9

The mechanism of reductive cleavage of model alkyl halides (methyl 2-bromoisobutyrate, methyl 2-bromopropionate, and 1-bromo-1-chloroethane), used as initiators in living radical polymerization (LRP), has been investigated in acetonitrile using both experimental and computational methods. Both theoretical and experimental investigations have revealed that dissociative electron transfer to these...

A promising imidazole compound was synthesized through the following route. The reaction of 5-methyl-2-phenyl-1H-imidazole-4-carbohydrazide (1) with carbon disulfide and potassium hydroxide in ethanol (80%) afforded salt (2). Refluxing (2) phenacyl bromide (3) ethanol/water (1:1) gave 2-((5-(5-methyl-2-phenyl-1H-imidazol-4-yl)-1,3,4-oxadiazol-2-yl)thio)-1-phenylethan-1-one (4) a 76% yield. stru...

the conversion of the cellulose into 5-hmf would experience three steps, cellulose to glycose, glycose to fructose and fructose to 5-hmf. chloride ion can break down the hydrogen bond in cellucose, chromium can catalyze the isomerization of glycose to fructose, and the high temperature is helpful to cyclohydration of fructose to 5-hmf. in this paper, the sawdust has been directly degraded into ...
