The rodlike ionogenic polymers poly(p-pyridylene-phenylene) and poly(p-pyridylene/phenylene-ethynylene) form polyelectrolytes when protonated with toluene sulfonic acid or ethane sulfonic acid in chloroform solution. This molecular modification, clearly indicated by a marked red shift of the UV absorption band, induces the formation of prolate, bundlelike aggregates, whose size and shape are ob...

Single step pretreatment-saccharification of corn stover was investigated in aqueous p-toluenesulfonic and sulfuric acid media. Dilute aqueous solution of p-toluenesulfonic acid was a better catalyst than aqueous sulfuric acid of the same H(+) ion concentration for single step pretreatment-saccharification of corn stover at moderate temperatures and pressures. For example, 100mg corn stover hea...

4-chloromethyl styrene homopolymer and its copolymers with styrene were prepared from their corresponding 4-chloromethyl styrene and styrene monomers at 1:0, 1:1, 1:3 and 1:5 mole ratios. these homo- and copolymerswere synthesized by radical polymerization in presence of aibn as initiator and dry toluene as solvent. then, chloromethyl groups were converted into azidomethyl groups on the homo- a...

In the title compound, [Pd(C(7)H(7)O(3)S)(2)(C(13)H(14)N(2))(2)](n), the metal ion, located on a twofold rotation axis, exhibits a slightly distorted octa-hedral coordination environment, with bond angles that deviate by at most 2.2° from an ideal geometry, completed by two O atoms from two deprotonated p-toluene-sulfonic acid ligands and four N atoms from four 1,3-di-4-pyridylpropane ligands. ...

Abstract In this paper, polypyrrole coated conductive fabrics were prepared using pyrrole as the monomer, p-toluene sulfonic acid doping agent and ammonium persulfate oxidant, adopting simple method of situ polymerization liquid phase. Six types polyester-cotton blended fabrics, nylon wool silk basalt aramid fabric respectively base materials same process conditions; its electrical conductivity...

The title compound, C(15)H(17)ClNO(2)S(+)·C(10)H(15)O(4)S(-)·C(3)H(6)O, was synthesized by N-alkyl-ation of α-amino-(2-chloro-phen-yl)acetate with 2-thienylethyl p-toluene-sulfonate, followed by reaction with (+)-camphor-10-sulfonic acid. In the crystal, the cations and anions are linked through N-H⋯O hydrogen bonds. The thio-phene ring of the cation was found to be disordered over two sites, w...

Silica boron sulfonic acid [SiO2–B(OSO3H)3] as an inexpensive, reusable, and Lewis and Brønsted acid catalyst was successfully synthesized, and used for the one-pot three-components synthesis of biologically active substituted Hantzsch 1,4-dihydropyridine derivatives  in the absence of solvent at 90ºC. Silica boron sulfonic acid is attractive and efficient, because it plays in two role as a Lew...

The title compound, C(21)H(36)O(3), was obtained by treatment of cyclo-hexa-necarbaldehyde with catalytic toluene-4-sulfonic acid monohydrate. This redetermination results in a crystal structure with significantly higher precision than the original determination [Diana & Ganis (1963 ▶). Atti Accad. Naz. Lincei, 35, 80-88]. The asymmetric unit contains one sixth of the mol-ecule, the formula uni...
