Organic solvent-free production of lignin nanoparticles opens a new and scalable route to lignin-based nanogels other materials.

A novel bifunctional catalyst based on partially reduced iridium oxide supported on TiO2 was found to be exceedingly efficient for the organic-solvent-free synthesis of dimethylformamide from CO2, H2 and dimethylamine.

Insolubilized cr-chymotrypsin bound to porous glass gel has been prepared. The kinetic behavior of this fixed enzyme proved to be the same as that of the free enzyme. The effects of aprotic dipolar organic solvents on the kinetics of cr-chymotrypsin-catalyzed hydrolysis were successfully studied using this insolubilized enzyme at concentrations up to 95% v/v dioxane, taking advantage of the ina...

Mesoporous metal-organic frameworks Cr- and Fe-MIL-101 are highly efficient, true heterogeneous and recyclable catalysts for solvent-free selective oxidation of cyclohexane with molecular oxygen and/or tert-butyl hydroperoxide under mild conditions.

copper (ii) phthalocyanine and 2,9,16,23 tetrakis nitro copper (ii) phthalocyaninehas been synthesized respectively from phthalonitrile and 4-nitro phthalonitrile under solvent-free condition using two different catalystsovernanodimensionalzeolites. 4-nitro phthalonitrile synthesized from phthalimide in three steps. the newly prepared compounds have been characterized by ir, uv-vis, 1hnmr and m...

An elastomeric gel is a cross-linked polymer network swollen with a solvent (fluid). A continuum-mechanical theory to describe the various coupled aspects of fluid permeation and large deformations (e.g., swelling and squeezing) of elastomeric gels is formulated. The basic mechanical force balance laws and the balance law for the fluid content are reviewed, and the constitutive theory that we d...

An organic solvent and surfactant stable α-amylase was obtained from soybean seeds. The direct and indirect effect of various organic solvents (non-polar, polar protic, and polar aprotic) and surfactants on the activity and stability of free enzyme was determined. The enzyme showed a very high catalytic efficiency and stabilization against most of the organic solvents and surfactants tested, ex...

highly active cu (ii) complex with 1,4-dihydroxy anthraquinone as a cheap and accessable ligand could be used as a catalyst for the preparation of structurally different propargylamines from a one-pot, three-component reaction of terminal alkynes, aldehydes, and secondary amines with high yields under solvent-free conditions. the 1,4-dihydroxy anthraquinone is a very efficient cu(ii) scavenger ...

copper (ii) phthalocyanine and 2, 9, 16, 23 tetrakis nitro copper (ii) phthalocyanine has been synthesized respectively from phthalonitrile and 4-nitro phthalonitrile under solvent-free condition using two different catalysts over nanodimensional zeolites. 4-nitro phthalonitrile synthesized from phthaimide in three steps. the newly prepared compounds have been characterized by ir, uv-vis,1h nm...
