Microcrystalline cellulose (MCC) samples pretreated by ionic liquid (ILs)H2O mixtures were studied for application in a pyrolysis process. A 1-ethyl3-methylimidazolium methanesulfonate [Emim][MeSO3]-H2O mixture with solid acid catalyst NafionNR50 was used in the pretreatment process. A lower amount of hydrogen bonding between neighboring pretreated MCC chains resulted from a less ordered cellul...

In this research, SO3H-functionalizedphthalimide (SFP) has been prepared through simple reaction of phthalimide with chlorosulfonic acid, and characterized using FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, SEM (scanning electron microscopy), mass and TG (thermal gravimetric) spectra. Afterward, the solid acid has been utilized as an efficient, green, heterogeneous and recyclable ca...

We demonstrated a simple and green chemical method to obtain Michael adducts and their derivatives by using GO as a phase transfer catalyst with different kinds of bases in water and dichloromethane, and we also used GO multiple cycles almost without reduction in reaction yields.

cui nanoparticles as an expedient and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of n-cyclohexyl-3-aryl-quinoxaline-2-amines in ethanol via a multi-component reaction are established. the products were separated from the catalyst simply by filtration. the catalyst could be recycled and reused for several times without noticeably decreasing the catalytic activity.

A novel hydrophilic pyridine-bridged bis-benzimidazolylidene palladium pincer complex (3) acted as a highly efficient robust recyclable molecular catalyst towards Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reactions in aqueous media and tolerated various functional groups (even heterocycles) with extremely low catalyst loading.

n,n-diethylethanaminium-2-(sulfooxy) ethyl sulfate was synthesized and used as  an efficient, green, and recyclable catalyst and solvent for the nitration of aromatic compounds by nitric acid at 80oc

Well-dispersed palladium(0) nanoparticles with small and narrow size distributions were synthesized conveniently on a graphene oxide (GO) surface. The GO-supported nano-Pd(0) was found to be a highly efficient and recyclable catalyst for the carbonylative cross-coupling reaction between arylboronic acids and aryl and carboranyl iodides, respectively. Benzophenone and a series of carboranylaryl ...

The disposal of solid waste is a serious problem worldwide that is made worse in developing countries due to inadequate planning and unsustainable solid waste management. In Mexico, only 2% of total urban solid waste is recycled. One non-recyclable material is poly (styrene-co-butadiene), which is commonly used in consumer products (like components of appliances and toys), in the automotive ind...

phenytoine derivatives were synthesized , via the  pinacol condensation  with the  reaction of 1,3- diphenyl- propane- 1,3- dione (benzyl) analogs with urea or thiourea in presence of slica gel and solid KOH as Solid phase catalyst  in the mortar / pestle at room temperatures. The reaction was completed at short reaction times (approximately 15min) and pure products were obtained with high yiel...
