A new synthesis of highly functionalized 2H-pyran derivatives

Ethyl oxo-(2-oxo-cycloalkyl)-ethanoates undergo a smooth reaction with triphenylphosphine and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates via intramolecular Wittig reaction to produce spiro-cyclobutene derivatives. These spiro systems undergo electrocyclic ring opening reaction to produce electron-deficient 1,3-dienes, which spontaneously cyclize to 2H-pyran derivatives.     

Thin layer chromatography of 57 metal ions on an inorganic ion-exchanger in mixed solvent systems

Summary Thin layers of stannic arsenate have been used to study the chromatographic behaviour of 57 metal ions in different mixed solvents. Au³⁺, Hg²⁺, UO ₂ ²⁺ , Be²⁺ and Al³⁺ and others can be easily separated from numerous metal ions. Fast quaternary, ternary and binary separations have been also achieved. Important separations are discussed. The effect of pH, duration of heating of ionexchanger plates and layer thickness on the R_f values has been studied and discussed. It is shown that Lederer's equation is also obeyed by thin layers of stannic arsenate, if instead of concentration of Na⁺ ion its activity is taken into consideration.     

Dispersion and deposition mechanisms of particles suspended in a turbulent plane Couette flow

Inertial particle transfer in a turbulent plane Couette flow (C flow) was studied using Direct Numerical Simulation (DNS) of the flow combined with a Lagrangian particle tracking approach for particles with Stokes numbers (St) 5, 25 and 125. The particle concentration was assumed low enough, so that the simulations were done under one-way coupling condition.     

Silver nanoparticles immobilized onto poly(4‐vinylpyridine)‐functionalized magnetic nanoparticles: A robust magnetically recyclable catalyst for oxidant‐free alcohol dehydrogenation

A heterogeneous and recyclable catalyst with a high loading of silver nanoparticles was synthesized via the silver nanoparticles being supported onto the surface of magnetic nanoparticles coated with poly(4‐vinylpyridine). The synthesized catalyst was used in the dehydrogenation of alcohols to corresponding carbonyl compounds. A broad diversity of alcohols was converted into their corresponding carbonyl compounds in excellent yields. The catalyst was easily recovered by applying an external magnetic field and reused for seven reaction cycles without considerable loss of activity. The catalyst was fully characterized using various techniques.
