Biofuels offer potential to mitigate climate change, increase energy security, and economically support farmers around the world. Licuri (Syagrus coronata) could be an important biofuel feedstock because its kernel (edible seed) has high energy conte...
Fused-bicyclic heteroaromatic cores are a common framework in drugs and other biologically active compounds. Those containing azine rings are widely used in drug discovery campaigns. Although these cores are very common, C–H functionalization o...
There are 880 studies focused on trivalent chrome baths, and several studies suggest the formation of
Azaoxyallyl cations, as novel and versatile three-atom components, have been widely utilized in cycloaddition reactions, with the competition between O- and N-cyclization pathways remaining a key research focus. This study investigates the mechanism...
Biodiesel is a green, low-carbon, and renewable fuel with the potential to substitute fossil fuels. The effects of reaction temperature (175–290 °C), residence time (5–75 min), and molar ratio of methanol to palmitic acid (6:1–3...
The treatment of refractory nitrogenous organic matter in industrial wastewater management poses challenges in the removal of organic matter and nitrogen. To address these issues, this study utilized a novel composite hydrodynamic cavitator, mainly c...
Furo[3,2-b]pyrroles (FPs) are important members of the heteropentalene family. In particular, furo[3,2-b]pyrrole-5-carboxylates (FPcs) are commonly used as versatile building blocks for the synthesis of a large library of FP derivatives. Their struct...
Neglected tropical diseases (NTDs) remain a significant global health burden, exacerbated by the ongoing climate emergency, which alters disease distribution and increases vulnerability in affected populations. The urgent need for novel therapeutics...
Catalysis remains the indispensable bedrock of modern industrial chemistry [...]
Water pollution caused by synthetic dyes is a major environmental concern due to their stability, toxicity, and resistance to conventional wastewater treatments. This study presents a sustainable approach for synthesizing zinc oxide (ZnO) nanoparticl...
A series of clay–spinel nanocomposites reinforced by tungstophosphoric acid (TPA) were prepared and examined for the esterification of oleic acid. The type of spinel (ZnAl2O4 and CuAl2O4) and the weight ratio of clay-to-spinel were evaluated. T...
To explore new possibilities in topological materials, we designed a tetrafunctional crosslinker composed of a [c2]daisy-chain rotaxane framework. In this study, a novel topological network polymer was successfully synthesized via an addition reactio...
Biochar has emerged as a promising adsorbent for removing organic pollutants from aqueous media, with its efficiency strongly influenced by the feedstock and pyrolysis conditions. In this study, biochar produced from fique pellets under controlled py...
Lignocellulosic residues represent a promising source of raw material for obtaining several high-value bioproducts, including cellulose and derivatives. One of the main barriers to cellulose extraction from these residues is the presence of other com...
Tungstophosphoric acid (TPA) has been supported on mesoporous silicas prepared using urea as the pore forming agent. The amount of urea (20, 30, or 40% w/w) influences the silica specific surface area (SBET), total pore volume (Vp), and average pore...
Biodiesel is an alternative, sustainable, renewable, and environmentally friendly energy source, which has generated interest from the scientific community due to its low toxicity, rapid biodegradability, and zero carbon footprint. Biodiesel is a bio...
This study investigates the efficiency of biocarbon derived from Prosopis juliflora shells in removing Astrazon pink dye from aqueous solutions. The biocarbon obtained from the thermochemical process was characterised using FTIR Spectroscopy, SEM mic...
Searching anode materials is an important task for the development of sodium-ion batteries. In this regard, bronze-phase titanium dioxide, TiO2(B), has been considered as one of the promising materials, owing to its crystal structure with open channe...
Green synthesis represents a sustainable, reliable, and eco-friendly approach for producing various materials and nanomaterials, including metal and metal oxide nanoparticles. This environmentally conscious method has garnered significant attention f...
The regioselectivity of the Claisen rearrangement with different meta-substituted and meta- and para-substituted allyl phenyl ethers was investigated. The main results were that in meta-substituted Claisen rearrangements the regioselectivity depends...
Fungal laccases are promising oxidative enzymes for bioremediation applications, particularly in the degradation of synthetic dyes present in industrial effluents. Here, we evaluated the inhibitory effects of sodium chloride (NaCl) and sodium sulfate...
With their considerable capacity and structurally favorable characteristics, layered transition metal oxides have become strong contenders for cathode use in sodium-ion batteries (SIBs). Nevertheless, their practical deployment is challenged by prono...
The coordination chemistry of benzimidazole ligands combines σ donation and π backbonding. Owing to this electronic flexibility, benzimidazole ligands stabilize both electron deficient and electron-rich transition states in the catalytic cyc...
