an efficient and direct procedure for the synthesis of benzo[h]-indeno[1,2-b]-quinoline derivatives has been described. the procedure employs a three-component condensation reaction in one-pot using 2h-indene-1, 3-dione, naphthalen-1-amine,and aldehydes in the presence of catalytic amount of l-prolinein aqueous media.

a systematic study on the electrochemical behavior of the s-derivatives of 2-amino cyclopentene-1-dithiocarboxylic acid (acda) has been carried out in aqueous ethanolic solutions by means of polarography, coulometry and voltammetry. all the compounds studied exhibited a well defined anodic wave corresponding to a diffusion controlled process. controlled potential coulometry gave n=1 per mole fo...

Developing organic chromophores with large two-photon absorption (TPA) in both organic solvents and aqueous media is crucial owing to their applications in solid-state photonic devices and biological imaging. Herein, a series of novel terpyridine-based quadrupolar derivatives have been synthesized. The influences of electron-donating group, type of conjugated bridge, as well as solvent polarity...

Single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs) dispersed in aqueous media have many potential applications in chemistry, biology and medicine. To disperse SWCNTs into aqueous media, it is often necessary to modify the surface of SWCNTs by either covalent or noncovalent methods. As a result of this modification, the properties of SWCNTs may be profoundly influenced by the nature of the surface modifica...

Mukaiyama aldol reactions in aqueous media have been surveyed. While the original Mukaiyama aldol reactions entailed stoichiometric use of Lewis acids in organic solvents under strictly anhydrous conditions, Mukaiyama aldol reactions in aqueous media are not only suitable for green sustainable chemistry but are found to produce singular phenomena. These findings led to the discovery of a series...

The enzyme immobilization has been adopted to enhance the activity and stability of enzymes in non-aqueous enzymatic catalysis. However, the activation and stabilization mechanism has been poorly understood on experiments. Thus, we used molecular dynamics simulation to study the adsorption of α-chymotrypsin (α-ChT) on carbon nanotube (CNT) in aqueous solution and heptane media. The results indi...

Sucrose hydrolysis reaction, catalysed by invertase under microwave irradiation was carried out in aqueous, isopropanol + water and polyethylene glycol + water system. The effect of conventional and microwave heating on the rate of hydrolysis was studied under a range of physical exposure conditions. The catalytic activity of invertase in aqueous and organic solvents were measured at different ...
