Microwave assisted reactions have gained considerable attention, due to versatility and reduction ofsolvent and reaction time. The reaction of a nano-coconut shell and boron tri-fluoride in diethylether solvent resulted in preparation of nano-coconut shell-BF3 as a catalyst. The nano-coconutshell-BF3 catalyst has been characterized by fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (F...

Pyrano [2,3-d] pyrimidinone derivatives have received considerable interest from the pharmaceutical industry due to their wide range of interesting biological and therapeutic properties. Nano Al2O3 was found to be a highly efficient solid acid catalyst for the preparation of pyrano [2,3-d] pyrimidinone derivatives from the reaction of barbituric acid, aryl aldehyde and mal...

Background: Despite global interest, the development of single step processes for the preparation of effective drug delivery systems still faces numerous challenges. There is great demand for processing methods that are efficient, flexible, scalable and economical for the generation of wide range of encapsulated structures. Over the past few decades, electrohydrodynamic (EHD) processing has rec...

Based on driving force for crystallization of one-component gas hydrate, in this report an expression for the supersaturation for crystallization of multicomponent gas hydrate is derived. Expressions for the supersaturation are obtained in isothermal and isobaric regimes. The results obtained are applied to the crystallization of hydrates of mixtures of methane plus ethane and can apply to ...

Zinc chloride silica gel-supported was found to be an efficient, inexpensive catalyst for the synthesis of 1,8-dioxodecahydroacridines via one-pot three-component condensation of aryl aldehydes, dimedone, andammonium acetate in high yields. The described novel synthetic method propose several advantages of safety, mild condition, short reaction times, high yields, simplicityand easy workup comp...
