This project studies the synthesis process of 2-D nanostructure of Bismuth oxycholride(BiOCl). The experiment involves synthesis of BiOCl particles and its exfoliation steps. BiOCl will be synthesized from Bismuth Nitrate (Bi(NO3)3) or Bismuth Cholride(BiCl3) with water, and Hydrochloric acid(HCl). Synthesized particles will be dispersed in Methyl Amine-Methanol solution and subjected to sonica...

The reactions of bismuth(III) nitrate pentahydrate and bismuth(III) chloride with heterocyclic thiosemicarbazones and derivatives of dithiocarbazonic acid methylester were used to synthesize the respective bismuth(III) complexes, which could be divided into five groups D-H because of their stoichiometrical properties and their molecular structures. The molecular structure and the near coordinat...

Multiresistance among microorganisms to common antimicrobials has become one of the most significant concerns in modern medicine. Nanomaterials are a new alternative to successfully treat the multiresistant microorganisms. Nanostructured materials are used in many fields, including biological sciences and medicine. Recently, it was demonstrated that the bactericidal activity of zero-valent bism...

Two simple, rapid and accurate conductometric methods were developed for determination of losartan potassium, pantoprazole sodium, sumatriptan succinate, rabeprazole sodium and lomefloxacine HCl in pure form as well as in their pharmaceutical formulations. The proposed methods based on using two different precipitating agents for conductometric determination of the cited drugs. Method (A) based...

The high temperature treatment of kaolinite-muscovite alternate layers doped by bismuth oxide was studied by TGA and DTA, X ray diffraction, and electron microscopy (SEM). Thermal analyses shows that the two main transformation stages are the dehydroxylation of phyllosilicates and the structural reorganization of the whole assembly. During dehydroxylation, a progressive decrease of the structur...

An efficient and one pot synthetic method of ipso-nitration of arylboronic acids has been developed. The high efficiency, general applicability, and broader substrate scope including heterocycles and functional groups make this method advantageous. Due to its simplicity, we expect to find application of this method in synthesis.

Efficient aerobic oxidative methyl esterification of primary alcohols has been achieved with a heterogeneous catalyst consisting of 1 mol % Pd/charcoal (5 wt %) in combination with bismuth(III) nitrate and tellurium metal. The Bi and Te additives significantly increase the reaction rate, selectivity, and overall product yields. This readily accessible catalyst system exhibits a broad substrate ...
