CVD synthesis of spiral carbon nanotubes over asymmetric catalytic particles

The influence of asymmetric catalytic particles prepared by various methods was investigated on the growth of spiral carbon nanotubes using the CVD method. Asymmetric particles were prepared by either milling or crystallization from oversaturated solution onto the surface of catalyst support or catalyst impregnation at pH 8–9. As-prepared catalysts were tested in the decomposition of acetylene. Carbon deposit, thus carbon nanotubes and spirals were observed by transmission electron microscopy the activity was characterized by carbon yield.     

Microwave-assisted synthesis of fused heterocycles incorporating trifluoromethyl moiety

4,4,4-Trifluoro-1-(thien-2-yl)butane-1,3-dione (1) reacts with 5-aminopyrazole, 1,2,4-aminotriazole and 2-aminobenzimidazole derivatives, in the presence of triethylorthoformate under pressurized microwave irradiation to afford the corresponding trifluoromethyl derivatives of pyrazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine, 1,2,4-triazolo[1,5-a]pyrimidine, and pyrimido[1,2-a]benzimidazoles. Also, compound 1 couples readily with azole diazonium salts to give pyrazolo[5,1-c]triazine, benzimidazo[5,1-c]1,2,4-triazine, and triazolo[3,4-c]1,2,4-triazine derivatives incorporating trifluoromethyl group.     

Microwave-assisted parallel synthesis of fused heterocycles in a novel parallel multimode reactor

New rotor types using disposable glass vials for small-scale parallel synthesis in multimode microwave reactors are introduced. One rotor comprises 16 groups of four vials, whereas the second uses four silicon carbide plates with a 6 x 4 matrix to process the vials. Both rotors achieve utmost temperature homogeneity upon microwave irradiation and can be used for microwave-mediated reactions at temperatures of up to 200 degrees C and pressures of 20 bar. The generation of three different heterocycle libraries furnishing thiophenes, oxindoles, and benzimidazoles using the new rotor types is described.     

The cytotoxicity of oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes on macrophages

Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been developed for medical and biotechnological applications in the past decades. Their widespread applications make it important to understand their potential hazards to human and the environment. In this study, the possible toxicological effects of the oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (O-MWCNTs) were assessed on RAW 264.7 macrophages in vitro. Several toxicological endpoints, such as cell viability, the release of LDH and IL-8, GSH/GSSG ratio, intracellular calcium concentration and ultrastructural changes in cell morphology, were carried out. The results showed that O-MWCNTs had very limited effects on oxidative stress, cellular toxicity and apoptosis. Transmission electron microscope clearly demonstrates RAW 264.7 macrophages engulfed plenty of O-MWCNTs, and some of them resided in the cytoplasm, while the morphology was not altered by O-MWCNTs. As the control, the pristine MWCNTs (p-MWCNTs) show higher cytotoxicity than O-MWCNTs, damaging cell viability and inducing cell apoptosis. All these toxicological data are of benefit to more wide applications of O-MWCNTs in the future.

Relevant synthesis parameters for the sequential catalytic growth of carbon nanotubes

Sequential catalytic growth provides an efficient tool for the synthesis of carbon nanotubes periodically inserted with catalyst nanoparticles. Several synthesis parameters were found crucial in order to induce this particular growth mechanism. The presence of phosphorus is required to form metal phosphide particles active for the formation of carbon nanotubes with a matchstick morphology. The metal composition (Ni/Fe ratio) and the carbon supply have no influence on the nanofilament type but strongly affect the nanotube yield. The synthesis temperature induces important changes on both the nanofilament type and yield, which are correlated with important transformations of the catalyst layer in terms of composition, particle size, and physical state.     

Combinatorial synthesis of carbon nanotubes by the catalytic chemical vapor deposition method

Stereoselective synthesis of fused heterocycles from substituted o-Benzoquinones and anilines

The reaction of trisubstituted o-benzoquinones with substituted anilines gives unstable o-benzoquinone imines which undergo intramolecular cyclization to 4aH-phenoxazine derivatives. Dimerization of the latter according to Diels-Alder yields complex heterocyclic systems, 7a,14a,15a,15b-tetrahydro-14,16-dioxa-5,9-diaza-8,15-ethenohexaphenes. Effective shielding of the carbonyl groups in 3,6-di-tert-butyl-4-isopropyl-o-benzoquinone makes it inactive toward substituted anilines.     

NBS mediated protocol for the synthesis of N-bridged fused heterocycles in water

A facile and environmental friendly protocol for the synthesis of N-bridged fused bicyclic compounds such as imidazo[1,2-a]pyridines, imidazo[1,2-a]pyrimidines, and imidazo[2,1-b]thiazole, from commercially available starting materials has been developed. The reaction proceeds via NBS mediated in situ formation of α-brominated intermediate of corresponding aromatic ketones, 1,3-diketones, β-keto esters, followed by trapping with suitable nucleophiles to provide these versatile imidazole fused bicyclic heterocycles in good yields under metal-free conditions.     

Decoration of multi-walled carbon nanotubes with NiO nanoparticles and investigation on their catalytic activity to synthesize pyrimidinone heterocycles

A supported carbon material is shown to be a highly efficient, eco-friendly and recyclable solid acid catalyst for the Biginelli reaction of aldehyde, β-ketoester and urea or thiourea under microwave irradiation in the absence of solvent. This method offers significant advantages such as efficiency, the excellent yield, avoidance of the organic solvents, mild reaction conditions, easy separation and simple operation. In addition, because of employing microwave as heating source and reducing use of organic solvents, this novel method emerges as a green-approach leading to less harmful residues. Furthermore, a mechanism was proposed to rationalize the reaction and the role of NiO–MWCNTs was also investigated in these transformations.     

Sensing properties of polyethylenimine coated carbon nanotubes in oxidized oil

Chemical detection is still a continuous challenge when it comes to designing single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) sensors with high selectivity, especially in complex chemical environments. A perfect example of such an environment would be in thermally oxidized soybean oil. At elevated temperatures, oil oxidizes through a series of chemical reactions that results in the formation of monoacylglycerols, diacylglycerols, oxidized triacylglycerols, dimers, trimers, polymers, free fatty acids, ketones, aldehydes, alcohols, esters, and other minor products. In order to detect the rancidity of oxidized soybean oil, carbon nanotube chemiresistor sensors have been coated with polyethylenimine (PEI) to enhance the sensitivity and selectivity. PEI functionalized SWCNTs are known to have a high selectivity towards strong electron withdrawing molecules. The sensors were very responsive to different oil oxidation levels and furthermore, displayed a rapid recovery of more than 90% in ambient air without the need of heating or UV exposure.
