in this study, amine functionalized kit-6 silica mesoporous magnetite nanocomposite (nh2-mmnc) was synthesized by chemical methods and used as an efficient and recoverable adsorbent for removal of ponceau 4r, as a toxic dye, from aqueous solutions. the synthesized nanocomposites were characterized by xrd, ft-ir, bet and sem instruments. the effect of various experimental parameters on the dye r...

Azlactone-functionalized polymers are used as reactive templates for the synthesis of a library of amine-functionalized polymers of interest in the context of DNA delivery and other applications.

choline oxidase (chox) was chosen as a model enzyme for evaluating the performance of cnts’ functional groups for development of enzyme electrodes. cnts were functionalized with carboxylic acid, amine or amide groups. carboxylic acid, amine and amide functionalized cnts were obtained by acid treatment, ethylenediamine or tetraethylenepentamine chemically modification and ammonia plasma treatmen...

We have successfully prepared mono- and bi-functionalized multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) with thiophene, amine and thiophene-amine groups. The dispersion of nanotubes has been enhanced and stable optimized dispersions in organic solvents were obtained. These functionalized nanotubes have been successfully incorporated into bulk heterojunction (BHJ) organic photovoltaic (OPV) cells with a po...

In this study we report the use of functionalized carbon-based nanomaterials, such as amine-functionalized graphene oxide (GO) and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (CNTs), as effective immobilization supports for various lipases and esterases of industrial interest. Structural and biochemical characterization have revealed that the curvature of the nanomaterial affect the immobilization yield, the...

the synthesis of functionalized 2-oxo-2h-coumarin derivatives has been studied by a one-pot reaction of o-hydroxybenzaldehyde, ethyl 2-bromoacetate and triphenylphosphine in the presence of catalytic amount of triethyl amine in etoac, water or under solvent free conditions. we have found the best results obtained under solvent free condition.

A simple protocol was used to prepare amine functionalized cellulose nanocrystals (CNC-NH2). In the first step, epichlorohydrin (EPH) was reacted with ammonium hydroxide to produce 2-hydroxy-3-chloro propylamine (HCPA). In the next step, HCPA was grafted to CNC using the etherification reaction in an organic solution media. Various reaction parameters, such as time, temperature, and reactant mo...

The mechanism of CO2 adsorption in the amine-functionalized metal-organic framework mmen-Mg2(dobpdc) (dobpdc(4-) = 4,4'-dioxidobiphenyl-3,3'-dicarboxylate; mmen = N,N'-dimethylethylenediamine) was characterized by quantum-chemical calculations. The material was calculated to demonstrate 2:2 amine:CO2 stoichiometry with a higher capacity and weaker CO2 binding energy than for the 2:1 stoichiomet...

N-alkylation reaction of amine functionalized phenylene moieties in crystal-like mesoporous silica is successfully achieved with about 87% of conversion in two reaction cycles. A potassium iodide catalyzed method commonly used for the selective N-monoalkylation of aniline is adapted and optimized to the N-monoalkylation reactions of the amine functionalized periodic mesoporous phenylene-silica ...

Commercially available silica gel is chemically modified for carbon dioxide capture. Calcinated silica gel of certain particle size functionalized with amine using two different methods, wet impregnation and grafting via silane chemistry has been employed as a porous media. The prepared material is characterized by Fourier transform infrared, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive anal...
