Potassium fluoride was found to be an efficient catalyst and solid support for the synthesis of 3,5-disubstituted-1,2,4-oxadiazoles. In this work, a one-pot method for the synthesis of these compounds from the reaction of nitriles with hydroxylamine hydrochloride and acyl chloride in the presence of potassium fluoride under solvent-free conditions using microwave irradiation has been developed. The advantages of using potassium fluoride as a solid support in comparison to conventional solid supports are simple operation and convenient separation of the products.

Net analyte signal-based simultaneous determination of ethanol and water by quartz crystal nanobalance sensor

Net analyte signal (NAS)-based method called HLA/GO was applied for the selectively determination of binary mixture of ethanol and water by quartz crystal nanobalance (QCN) sensor. A full factorial design was applied for the formation of calibration and prediction sets in the concentration ranges 5.5-22.2 μg mL⁻¹ for ethanol and 7.01-28.07 μg mL⁻¹ for water. An optimal time range was selected by procedure which was based on the calculation of the net analyte signal regression plot in any considered time window for each test sample. A moving window strategy was used for searching the region with maximum linearity of NAS regression plot (minimum error indicator) and minimum of PRESS value. On the base of obtained results, the differences on the adsorption profiles in the time range between 1 and 600 s were used to determine mixtures of both compounds by HLA/GO method. The calculation of the net analytical signal using HLA/GO method allows determination of several figures of merit like selectivity, sensitivity, analytical sensitivity and limit of detection, for each component. To check the ability of the proposed method in the selection of linear regions of adsorption profile, a test for detecting non-linear regions of adsorption profile data in the presence of methanol was also described. The results showed that the method was successfully applied for the determination of ethanol and water.
