the one-pot, multi-component synthesis of 4,4′-(arylmethylene)bis(1h-pyrazol-5-ols) by tandem knoevenagel-michael reaction of phenylhydrazine, ethyl acetoacetate and aldehydes in the presence of silica-bonded n-propylpiperazine sulfamic acid (sbppsa) as a recyclable solid acid catalyst was reported. sbppsa showed much the same efficiency when used in consecutive reaction runs.

Urine samples must be acidified if accurate calcium analyses are to be obtained (1). In many institutions the nursing staff is not permitted to dispense the strong acids traditionally used to decrease the pH of urine, so that the acid must be transferred into the collection vessels in the clinical laboratory. To avoid the dangerous practice of using a caustic liquid acid as a preservative, we h...

Mild and applicable synthesis of mono-, bis-, and spiro- perimidines is demonstrated in high yields via the condensation of 1,8-diaminonaphthalene and aldehydes or ketones in the presence of sulfamic acid as a green and highly efficient catalyst. This environmentally benign and clean synthetic pathway offers several advantages, such as high yields, short reaction times and easy work-up procedure.

The behavior of Pu(iv) and Pu(iii) was investigated in aqueous nitric solutions under ultrasound irradiation (Ar, 20 kHz). In the absence of anti-nitrous reagents, ultrasound has no effect on Pu(iv), while Pu(iii) can be rapidly oxidized to Pu(iv) due to the autocatalytic formation of HNO(2) induced by HNO(3) sonolysis. In the presence of anti-nitrous reagents (sulfamic acid or hydrazinium nitr...

An easy and efficient procedure for the synthesis of 4-indolylquinoline derivatives is described. This process involves two steps, the first of which is the Michael addition of indole to nitrochalcones promoted by sulfamic acid under solvent free conditions and the second step is a reductive cyclization of the indolylnitrochalcone intermediates to 4-indolylquinoline derivatives by Fe/HCl in eth...

The one-pot, multi-component synthesis of 4,4′-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ols) by tandem Knoevenagel-Michael reaction of phenylhydrazine, ethyl acetoacetate and aldehydes in the presence of silica-bonded N-propylpiperazine sulfamic acid (SBPPSA) as a recyclable solid acid catalyst was reported. SBPPSA showed much the same efficiency when used in consecutive reaction runs.

Polyaniline shows great potential and promises wide application in the biomedical field thanks to its intrinsic conductivity and material properties, which closely resemble natural tissues. Surface properties are crucial, as these predetermine any interaction with biological fluids, proteins and cells. An advantage of polyaniline is the simple modification of its surface, e.g., by using various...
