The activity of a Te-MgO catalyst prepared by adsorbing Te vapor onto MgO powder was determined by dehydrogenation of indane, 9,10-dihydrophenanthrene, cumene, and p-cymene. The activity of the Te-MgO catalyst was higher than that of the MgO catalyst in most of the cases investigated. The selectivity of the former catalyst was much higher than that of the later in all cases studied. The Te-MgO ...

Bis-(L-tyrosinato)copper(II) was reacted with 3-(chloropropyl)-trimethoxysilane functionalized silica that has infused magnetite to yield a magnetically separable catalyst in which the copper carboxylate is covalently linked to the silica matrix through the silane linkage. The immobilized catalyst has been characterized by spectroscopic studies (such as FT-IR, EPR, Magnetic Measurement...

full factorial experimental design (23) for the evaluation of slurry ethylene polymerization in the presence of an industrial ticl4/mgcl2 ziegler-natta catalyst was employed. the following parameters were used as independentvariables: al/ti molar ratio, reaction temperature and hydrogen partial pressure. the total polymerization pressure was 9 bar. catalyst activity, mfi (melt flow index) and m...

a green, efficient and selective approach for the oxidation of sulfides to sulfoxides and sulfones with uhp at room temperature is reported. the reaction is performed in the presence of vanadia catalyst supported on mesocellular silica foam (mcf) with a v content ranging from 2% to 10% as heterogeneous and reusable catalyst. the structural and textural characterization of this catalyst were don...

In the present research, silica bonded n-propyl-1,3,5-triazine-2,4,6-triamine (SPTT) was synthesized by direct incorporation of chloropropyl groups through co-condensation of tetraethyl orthosilicate (TEOS) and 3-chloropropyl trimethoxysilane (CPTMS) and subsequent grafting the melamine onto the propyl groups via simple nucleophilic substitution reaction. The catalyst has been characterized by ...

the esterification of free fatty acids (ffa) with methanol is studied using sulfonated porous carbon (spc) as catalyst. in compare to the amorphous sugar catalyst and protonated nafion, the proposed catalyst shows stability and high efficient performance in biodiesel production. the highest initial rate of oleic acid conversion is obtained at catalyst loading of 1 mmol h+ and mole ratio of meoh...

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.

nano sulfated titania was tested as solid acid heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of 4-(trifluoromethyl) coumarin and coumarin derivatives under solvent-free condition. factorial design evidenced a positive effect of reaction temperature, amount of catalyst, and solvents.  this nano-sized sulfated titania has been prepared by a sol-gel hydrothermal process. the prepared sulfated titania s...
