Jensen inequalities for <Emphasis Type="Italic">P</Emphasis>-class functions

In this paper, we first give some characterizations for P-class functions. Then giving a Hermite–Hadamard type inequality for P-class functions, we prove equivalency of some significant metrics in normed linear spaces. We also obtain an operator version of the Jensen inequality for P-class functions. Introducing operator (mid) P-class functions, we present some characterizations for such functions.

A simple and convenient synthesis of [1,2,4]triazolo/benzimidazolo ‎quinazolinone and [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-<Emphasis Type="Italic">a</Emphasis>]pyrimidine derivatives catalyzed by ‎DABCO-based ionic liquids

DABCO-based ionic liquids were utilized for the preparation of [1,2,4]triazolo/benzimidazolo quinazolinone and [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine derivatives in the adequate procedures. These methods involve three-component reaction between aldehydes, β-diketones and 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole or 2-aminobenzimidazole in the presence of 1,4-disulfo-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1,4-diium chloride ([DABCO](SO₃H)₂(Cl)₂) and 1,4-disulfo-1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane-1,4-diium dihydrogen sulfate ([DABCO](SO₃H)₂(HSO₄)₂) as reusable and economical catalysts at 100 °C. These methods also show eco-friendly characters by elimination of solvent. Any by-product was not prepared through this method, and products were separated by a simple workup procedure. The other noticeable benefits of these procedures are excellent yields, short reaction times, mild reaction conditions and use of available and inexpensive materials.     

N‐Bromosuccinimide (NBS): A Novel and Efficient Catalyst for the Synthesis of 14‐Aryl‐14H‐dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes under Solvent‐Free Conditions

A novel procedure for the synthesis of 14‐aryl‐14H‐dibenzo[a,j]xanthenes through one‐pot condensation of naphthalen‐2‐ol with arenecarbaldehydes in the presence of N‐bromosuccinimide (NBS) as catalyst under solvent‐free conditions is described.     

A novel ternary GO@SiO2‐HPW nanocomposite as an efficient heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of benzazoles in aqueous media

A new solid acid catalyst, consisting of 12‐phosphotungstic heteropoly acid (HPW) supported on graphene oxide/silica nanocomposite (GO@SiO₂), has been developed via immobilizing HPW onto an amine‐functionalized GO/SiO₂ surface through coordination interaction (GO@SiO₂‐HPW). The GO@SiO₂‐HPW nanocomposite was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT‐IR) spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and powder X‐ray diffraction (XRD). The prepared nanocomposite could be dispersed homogeneously in water and further used as a heterogeneous, reusable, and efficient catalyst for the synthesis of benzimidazoles and benzothiazoles by the reaction of 1,2‐phenelynediamine or 2‐aminothiophenol with different aldehydes.     

Novel functionalized mesopore of SBA-15 as prospective sorbent for praseodymium and lutetium

In the present work, results of γ-irradiation on normal and functionalized SBA-15 by aurintricarboxylic acid have been reported. Characterization of normal and functionalized SBA-15 particles before and after γ-irradiation was carried out using Fourier-transform infrared technique. Aurintricarboxylic acid ligand connected to SBA-15 was also analyzed using UV/Vis spectrophotometer. The modified sorbent was then used as a new sorbent for separation of trace amounts of praseodymium and lutetium ions from nuclear waste waters in batch techniques. Based on the results of distribution coefficients determination, and investigation of sorption process in various conditions, the parameters were optimized for separation lanthanides. It can be concluded that the functionalized SBA-15 is a promising sorbent for praseodymium and lutetium cations.
