stable crystalline phosphorus ylides are obtained in excellent yields from the 1:1:1 addition reactionbetween hydantoins or thiohydantoins and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates in the presence oftriphenylphosphine. these phosphoranes undergo smooth intramolecular wittig reaction followedby an electrocyclic ring opening to produce dialkyl (e)-2-(2,5-dihydro-5,5-diaryl-2-thioxo-1h-imidazol-4-yl)fum...

nanocomposites based on vinyl ester resin (derakane 470-300) and nano clay (cloisite 30b) were prepared. the effect of clay content of 1, 3 and 5% (by weight) on the morphology, mechanical properties and water absorption of vinyl ester resin nanocomposites were studied. the nanocomposites were characterized  using  small-angle x-ray  scattering  (saxs),  feld  emission  scanning electron micros...

Peroxyoxalate system includes an oxalate ester, peroxide and a fluorescer, The energy resulted from the reaction of oxalate ester and peroxide is transferred to fluorescer and cause it to fluorsc. The effect of reactants chemical structure, their concentration, solvent media (polarity and viscosity) and the temperature, on the intensity of the illuminated light with respect to time have bee...

an efficient three-component reaction of dialkyl acetylendicarboxylates and 2-pyrrolidin in the presence of triphenylphosphine produces dialkyl 2-(2-pyrrolidin-n-yl)-3-(triphenylphosphanylidene)succinate. these phosphoranes undergo mild intramolecular wittig reaction to produce dialkyl (e)-2-(4,5-dihydro-3h-pyrrol-2-yl)fumarate in excellent yields.

biofuels are the main substitute to fossil fuels. these fuels are less polluting in compari-son to fossil fuels and can be produced from agricultural material residues for use in die-sel engines. in this research work bioethanol was produced from potato waste. it was de-hydrated in a vapor phase using 3a zeolite and was used in combination with sunflower methyl ester oil and diesel fuel blendin...
