cobalt (ii) chloride was used as a precursor to prepare co 3 o 4 nanotubes in reverse micelles. tween 80 was added as surfactant. the products were characterized by x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electron microscopy. the diameter of co 3 o 4 nanotubes was about 58 nm and the average length of them was around 261 nm. the study provides a simple and e...

a facile and efficient one-pot three-step process for the synthesis of 5-acetyl-2-imino-4-methylthiazoles via the cyclocondensation of 3-thiocyanatoacetylacetone with various hydrazine or hydrazide derivatives in etoh has been developed. 3-thiocyanatoacetylacetone itself has been synthesized as the intermediate from substitution reaction of thiocyanate with 3-chloroacetylacetone. better results...

abstract:turmeric is a member of the ginger family (zingiberaceae), which is extensively used as a spice, food preservative and colouring material. curcumin is a main bioactive natural compound derived from the rhizome of this plant. curcumin can exist in several tautomeric forms, keto and enol. the keto form is more stable than enol form. silyl ethers have proven to be versatile substrates for...

metal—polyaniline nanocomposites such as platinum-polyaniline nanocomposite is prepared by insitu oxidative polymerization of aniline and reduction of pt+4 ions into pt nanoparticles. thepolymerization of aniline was carried out in the presence of 1(2ptcn6 [potassium hexa cyanoplatinate (iv)] as oxidizing agent. during the reaction aniline monomers undergo oxidation andform polyaniline (pant) w...

α-fe2o3 (hematite) is the most stable iron oxide under ambient conditions. this transition metal oxide has been extensively investigated because it has unique electrical and catalytic properties. in this report, a novel microwave method for preparation of α-fe2o3 nanoparticles has been developed. the process contained two steps: first, precursor were obtained from a mixed solution of 50 ml of 0...

b1-xlaxfeo3 (x = 0.0, 0.025) crystallites were prepared by chemical solution route. xrd analysis confirmed the phase formation of the materials. thermal characterization was done by dsc-tga to confirm crystallization and thermal behavior for phase development. morphological studies by fesem showed the agglomerated nature of the ferrite and edx analysis confirmed the degree of doping. ftir studi...

aminocarboxylic acids, such as 2-aminobenzoic acid, react easily with [ir(cod)(pme3)3]cl, (cod=1,5-cyclooctadiene), in thf to produce hydridoaminocarboxylato iridium(iii) complexes in high yields. these octahedral complexes are formed via oxidative addition reaction of the o-h bond of the carboxylic group with the central metal. the starting iridium(i) complex losses the cod molecule, the chlor...

manufacturing new hepatitis b virus vaccines, specifically by the use of nanoparticles, is of high global interest. in this paper, a new biocompatible and biodegradable structure of nano-sized hepatitis b virus’ surface antigen (hbsag) was generated by conjugation with dendrimers, a low cost biodegradable and biocompatible polymer. the physicochemical properties of the conjugate were characteri...

in this research nickel zinc ferrite nanoparticles with composition of ni1-xznxfe2o4 (where x=0, 0.3, 0.7, 1) were synthesized by a sol-gel method at 600 °c for 5 hours. the structure of nanoparticles was studied using x-ray diffraction pattern. the lattice parameter of ferrite nanoparticles was calculated and indicates lattice constant of nanoparticles depend on zinc concentration. the crystal...

in this study, hydroxyapatite (ha) nanocrystals have been synthesized via chemical precipitation technique. diammonium hydrogen phosphate and calcium nitrate 4-hydrate were used as starting materials and sodium hydroxide solution was used as the agent for ph adjustment. the powder sample was evaluated by techniques such as scanning electron microscope, transmission electron microscope, fourier ...
