The effects of grain size and strain on the temperature-dependent thermal transport of antimony telluride (Sb2Te3) thin films, controlled using post-annealing temperatures of 200°C to 350°C, were investigated using the 3-omega method. The measured total thermal conductivities of 400-nm-thick thin films annealed at temperatures of 200°C, 250°C, 300°C, 320°C, and 350°C were determined to be 2.0 t...

In today’s world of electronics, nanomaterial applications pose a challenge. The spin coating approach was used to create nanostructured ZnO with wurtzite structure in recent study. Antimony doping, aluminum, and antimony codoping 2.0 percent were make these films. impact doped codoped films on structural, optical properties, morphological has been examined using variety characterization approa...

A versatile and high-yielding indium trichloride mediated cyclization reaction of silylated homoallylic alcohols, thiols, or amines with aldehydes or epoxides is described as a rapid route to a range of unsaturated heterocycles. The excellent diastereoselectivity observed offers a method of wide scope and generality.

A simple, chemoselective transfer hydrogenation of aryl aldehydes with the aid of Amberlite((R)) resin formate (ARF), a stable H-donor, in the presence of catalytic ruthenium trichloride is described. Aromatic aldehydes and 1,2-diketones are reduced efficiently and selectively, while aryl ketones remain unchanged. Several other potentially reducible groups attached to the aromatic moiety are un...

A novel cyclization process of 2,3-bis(trimethylsilyl)buta-1,3-diene with various acyl chlorides in the presence of aluminium trichloride affords 2,5-disubstituted or 2,3,5-trisubstituted furans in short reaction time; a subsequent acylation process of the furan ring occurs if the reaction time is prolonged.

(2R,3R)-2,3-Diaminobutane-1,4-diol 6 and its dibenzyl ether 7 were efficiently synthesized starting from L-tartaric acid 1a. The crucial step, debenzylation of intermediate dibenzyloxydiazide 4, was accomplished in good yield by boron trichloride–dimethyl sulfide complex. The enantiomeric series was similarly obtained starting from D-tartaric acid. c 1997 Elsevier Science Ltd

Cyclopentalljphenanthrene titanium trichloride and its 2-methyl and phenyl derivatives were synthesized; the crystal structure of the 2-mcthyl-substituted complex was determined by X-ray diffraction analysis. In the presence of methylalumoxane (MAO), these complexes give highly active catalysts for the syndiotactic polymerization of styrene; the 2-phenyl-substituted complex exceeds all previous...
