an efficient and environmentally benign   method for the synthesis of aryl iodides have been developed by diazotization of aromatic amines with nano2 and nanosilica periodic acid (nano-spia) as a green catalyst via grinding followed by a sandmeyer iodination by ki under solvent-free conditions at room temperature. the ensuing aryl diazonium salts supported on nano-spia were sufficiently stable ...

The chemical properties of oil from arils of both ripe and unripe ackee (Blighia sapida) were evaluated with a view to investigating the variations in their domestic and industrial applications. The chemical analyses of ripe and unripe aril oils respectively in different locations showed the percentage yield of oil from 54.91±2.75 to 78.25±3.91; 37.78±1.51 to 54.61 ± 2.18, iodine values of 90.0...

Under favorable soil conditions such as existence of easily destructible organic compounds, balanced heat and moisture, adequate ventilation and abundant nutrients, organic materials are mineralized. Once mineralizing occurs, mineral elements like P, S, Ca, Mg, K and other cations are released. A related study was conducted to determine the effect of seven organic fertilizers (Leaf Mold (LM), R...

Abstract Sweet passion fruit (Passiflora alata Curtis) is a species native to Brazil that economically important for consumption and can also be used as an ornamental plant. The objective of this work was evaluate different forms storing Passiflora seeds the purpose preserving accessions in germplasm banks. Three experiments were performed. In first, without aril stored two periods (one three y...

Abstract Here we present a taxonomic treatment of the subfamily Celastroideae (Celastraceae) in state Espírito Santo, southeastern Brazil, as part ongoing project Flora do Santo. The work is based on analyses herbaria specimens and fieldwork since 2012. Two genera thirteen species are reported for covering all vegetation formations found state. Celastrus represented by one species, C. liebmanni...

Pomegranate fruit is to rich in phenolic compounds and antioxidant properties can show difference the composition according cultivars, part of fruit, environmental conditions analysis method. Therefore, aim present study was analyse compare chemical from different parts Valenciana Wonderful pomegranate cultivars. The fruits were separated into aril, peel, membrane seeds manually analysed by com...
