Multi-component synthesis of 2-amino-6-(alkylthio)pyridine-3,5-dicarbonitriles using Zn(II) and Cd(II) metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) under solvent-free conditions

Multi-component synthesis of 2-amino-3,5-dicarbonitrile-6-thio-pyridines has been developed by using the reaction of aldehydes, malononitrile, and thiophenols in the presence of a Zn(II) or a Cd(II) metal-organic framework (MOF) as the heterogeneous catalyst. This protocol tolerates different functional groups on the substrates and does not require the use of any organic solvent. Moreover, the Zn(II) and Cd(II) MOF catalysts can be recovered and reused for a number of runs without loss of activity.     

1,4‐Dipolar Cycloaddition Reactions in Ionic Liquids: A Facile Synthesis of 9aH,15H‐[1]Benzopyrano[3′,2′: 3,4]pyrido[2,1‐a]isoquinolines (=9aH,15H‐Benzo[a][1]benzopyrano[2,3‐h]quinolizines)

Ionic liquids were found to be a suitable reaction medium for 1,4‐dipolar cycloaddition reactions of an isoquinoline, an activated alkyne, and a 4‐oxo‐4H‐1‐benzopyran‐3‐carboxaldehyde at room temperature to afford [1]benzopyrano‐pyrido‐isoquinoline (=9aH,15H‐benzo[a][1]benzopyrano[2,3‐h]quinolizine) derivatives selectively in good yields. The ionic liquid can be recovered and recycled in further runs without loss of activity.

Energy flux equalization: An open boundary condition for non-linear free surface flows

In the simulation of non-linear free surface flows in a finite domain a major concern is with the radiation condition to be applied at the ‘open’ boundary. No general theoretical radiation conditions are known to exist. In this paper a new open boundary condition is formulated based on energy flux equalization between the non-linear inner domain and a linear outer domain. The non-linear flow in the inner domain is solved numerically using a semi-Lagrangian procedure. The energy flux arriving at the open boundary is removed using a new open boundary condition which acts as a linear wave absorber. For the cases studied the performance of this boundary condition is found to be quite good.     

On the anomalous large transverse energy events observed in proton-lead scattering

It has been shown that a study of correlation between the average rapidity, 〈y〉, and transverse energy,E _T , can be used to distinguish between different origins of large transverse energy events observed inp-Pb scattering in the HELIOS experiment. If the largeE _T events are to be attributed to a nuclear dependence of structure functions then the hard scattering picture implies a positive correlation among the above two quantities, contrary to that seen in experiment.
