some n¬-acyl-n'-aryl thiourea derivatives 4(a-f) have been prepared by the reaction of acyl halides ammonium thiocyanate and aryl amines. the structures of synthesized compounds have been characterized by ir, 1hnmr spectral studies. the synthesized compounds 5(a-f) have been screened for antibacterial activity. the effect of the structure of the investigated compounds on the antibacterial activ...

aqueous polyurethane dispersions (puds) have recently emerged as important alternatives to their solvent-based counterparts for various applications due to increasing health and environmental awareness (green chemistry). anionic polyester-polyurethane dispersions were synthesized by three steps. in the first step, macromonomer diisocyanate having carboxylic acid was prepared by isophorone diiso...

molecular sieves mcm-41 were synthesized from rice husk ash (rha) as alternative sources of silica. the material was synthesized by a room temperature method from a gel with the molar composition sio2: 1.6ea: 0.215hdtmabr: 325h2o with ph correction. the cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (ctmabr) was used as a structure template. nanocomposite containing 5.0 and 10.0 wt.% of cu was synthesized unde...

the aerobic oxidation of alcohols was efficiently completed in high conversion and selectivity using cu3/2[pmo12o40]/sio2 as catalyst under mild reaction condition. this reaction provides a new environmentally friendly rout to the conversion of alcoholic function to carbonyl groups.

an efficient and green method for the synthesis of pyrano[3,2-c]chromene or pyrano[4,3-b]pyrone derivatives is described by using a three-component condensation process of malononitrile, aldehyde, and 4-hydroxycoumarine or 4-hydroxypyrone in [bmim]bf4-licl as an ionic liquid.

pure azo schiff bases were readily and conveniently accessible in high yields by mixing of the reagents either as aqueous slurry, or by grinding at room temperature. this method, unlike a classical method, needs neither harsh conditions nor organic solvents. the satisfactory results were obtained with excellent yields, short reaction time, and operational simplicity in the experimental procedur...

Gilbert's chemistry sets, those that many of today's practicing chemists received as children, proved to be the spark that ignited many a lifelong exploration of the wonders of chemistry. While DuPont was espousing its contributions to the world with its motto, "Better living through chemistry," children were using the popular Gilbert's chemistry sets to perform the simplest experiments and vie...

Since their initial appearance in the scientific literature, the terms "green" and "sustainable" have been increasingly used and are nowadays ubiquitously present in the terminology of several research areas. The seminal origin of what is considered “green chemistry” today might be ascribed to the launch of the Responsible Care® initiative by the American Chemistry Council (ACC) [1] and to the ...
