the difficult to handle and store zinc borohydride, zn(bh4)2, is stabilized by supporting it on polyvinylpyridine. this new mild, efficient, selective, and regenerable polymer supported borohydride reducing agent reduces a variety organic compounds such as, aldehydes, a-b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, acid chlorides, epoxides, disulfides, as well as reductive acetylation of carbonyl compounds...

The palladium nanoparticles were immobilized on DNA-modified multi walled carbon nanotubes as stable and powerful heterogeneous catalyst. The catalyst was characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, UV-Vis spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, inductively coupled plasma and elemental analysis. DNA as a well-defined structure and...

A kinetically inert, reversible coordination polymer (3) was obtained through complexation of dicyclohexylphosphine telechelic poly(tetrahydrofuran) with palladium(II) dichloride. This coordination polymer is unreactive towards palladium(II) dichloride bis(1-diphenylphosphino)dodecane (4), because ligand dissociation in the coordination polymer is slow. However, upon ultrasonication of solution...

palladium nanoparticles supported on multi-walled carbon nanotubes (pd/mwcnts) have been synthesized using a modified polyol reduction method and its performance in methanol oxidation reactions has evaluated. the morphology of palladium on mwcnts was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem). the catalytic performance of synthesized catalyst ...

The primary objective of this paper is to enhance the water-vapor-adsorption capacity of multiwall-carbon-nanotube (MWCNT) from nitrogen gas by grafting sulfonic acid groups and doping palladium nanoparticles into the adsorbent. MWCNT has been selected to be modified because of having homogeneous adsorption energy compared to silica gel. As a result, it is capable of creating isotherm having sh...

A series of novel pyrazolodibenzo[1,4]diazepines has been synthesized with good overall yields. The diarylpyrazole intermediates, with structure similarity to biologically relevant compounds such as currently marketed drugs like rimonabant or celecoxib, were prepared by a tandem sequence amine-exchange/heterocyclization starting from readily available enaminones and arylhydrazines. The key step...

Primary aromatic amides are valuable compounds, which are generally prepared via Beckmann rearrangement of oximes and the hydration of nitriles in organic solvents. We investigated the environmentally friendly catalytic aminocarbonylation in water. Thus, a novel heterogeneous transition-metal catalyst, a polymer-supported terpyridine–palladium(II) complex, was prepared and found to promote azid...
