Real-time monitoring of chemical reactions is still challenging as well as important to study reaction mechanisms and reaction kinetics. Herein, we demonstrated the real-time monitoring of o-phenylenediamine (OPD) oxidation on the surface of gold nanoparticles by surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS). The oxidation mechanism and the reaction kinetics were investigated on the basis of the S...

The CO oxidation behaviors on single Au atom embedded in two-dimensional h-BN monolayer are investigated on the basis of first-principles calculations, quantum Born-Oppenheim molecular dynamic simulations (BOMD) and micro-kinetic analysis. We show that CO oxidation on h-BN monolayer support single gold atom prefers an unreported tri-molecular Eley-Rideal (E-R) reaction, where O2 molecule is act...

A particle reaction model including mass and heat transfer has been developed to know the temperature variations produced inside the oxygen carrier particles during the cyclic reduction and oxidation reactions taking place in a Chemical-Looping Combustion (CLC) system. The reactions of the different oxygen carriers based on Cu, Co, Fe, Mn, and Ni during the reduction with fuel gas (CH4, CO, and...

1. Dihydroxyfumarate slowly autoxidizes at pH6. This reaction is inhibited by superoxide dismutase but not by EDTA. Mn2+ catalyses dihydroxyfumarate oxidation by reacting with O2 leads to to form Mn3+, which seems to oxidize dihydrofumarate rapidly. Cu2+ also catalyses dihydroxyfumarate oxidation, but by a mechanism that does not involve O2 leads to. 2. Peroxidase catalyses oxidation of dihydro...

A novel one-pot aerobic oxidation/Knoevenagel condensation reaction system was developed employing a Cu(ii)/amine bifunctional, basic metal-organic framework (MOF) as the catalyst. The sequential aerobic alcohol oxidation/Knoevenagel condensation reaction was efficiently promoted by the Cu3TATAT MOF catalyst in the absence of basic additives. The benzylidenemalononitrile product was produced in...

Oxidative alkene cleavage is a highly interesting reaction to obtain aldehydes and ketones. The Mn-dependent protein TM1459 from Thermotoga maritima can catalyse of styrene derivatives in the presence tert-butyl hydroperoxide. Despite high thermal stability enzyme, it gets inactivated during reaction. data reported here indicate that auto-oxidation responsible for low oxidative environment requ...

UV/TiO2 photocatalysis of chelated copper in aqueous solutions has been performed starting from Cu(II)-tartaric acid, Cu(II)-citric acid, Cu(II)-EDTA and Cu(II)-DTPA,in the presence of oxygen and at acidic pH. The photocatalytic reaction obeys first-order kinetic equation. The influence of Cu(II) on photocatalytic oxidation of organic ligands and how the various organics will affe...

OBINGER C , BURNER U. & EBERMANN R. 1997. Generation of hydrogen peroxide by plant peroxidases mediated thiol oxidation. Phyton (Horn, Austria) 37 (3): (219) (226). Thiol oxidation by plant peroxidases is an oxygen consuming process independent of hydrogen peroxide addition. The in vitro system consists of two interdependent reactions, i.e. hydrogen peroxide mediated oxidation of thiols via the...

The oxidation-reduction potential of the reaction-centre chlorophyll of Photosystem I (P700) in spinach chloroplasts was determined by using the ability of the reaction centre to photoreduce the bound ferredoxin and to photo-oxidize P700 on illumination at 20K as an indicator of the oxidation state of P700. This procedure shows that P700 is oxidized with Em (pH8.0)(mid-point redox potential at ...

Reaction of thionyl chloride with 2-acetyl-1- benzenesulfonylpyrrole semicarbazone (6 c) gave 4 - (1- benzenesulfonyl-2 - pyrrolyl) - 1, 2, 3 -thiadiazole (lc). Selenium dioxide oxidation of 2-acetylpyrazine semicarbazone (10) in acetic acid afforded 4- (2-pyrazinyl) - 1, 2, 3- selenadiazole (4). Reaction of thionyl chloride with compound 10 gave 4- (2-pyrazinyl) - 1, 2, 3- thiadiazole (3)....
