Samples obtained as a result of the valleriite synthesis process under different conditions (temperature and proportion Cu:Fe:Mg in the initial mixture) were investigated by ⁵⁷Fe M?ssbauer spectroscopy with attraction data of X-ray diffraction. Parameters of hyperfine interactions for valleriite were determined and crystal chemical identification of ⁵⁷Fe subspectra was carried out. It was found that valleriite was formed in samples synthesized at 150°C and 180°C and not formed in samples synthesized at 250°C.     

Multiple cation binding by bola-amphiphilic crown ethers: Assessment by fast atom bombardment mass spectrometry

Abstract

Bola-amphiphiles having two aza-18-crown-6 ether rings attached by a covalent spacer (O—O) and an analogous tris (macrocycle) (O—O—O) have been prepared and their cation complexation behavior has been assessed by fast atom bombardment and collisionally activated dissociation tandem mass spectrometry; the key finding is that two cations may simultaneously be complexed by a two- or three-crown system and that this complexation may also involve an anion.     

A One‐Pot Synthesis of N‐Aryl‐2‐Oxazolidinones and Cyclic Urethanes by the Lewis Base Catalyzed Fixation of Carbon Dioxide into Anilines and Bromoalkanes

The multicomponent assembly of pharmaceutically relevant N‐aryl‐oxazolidinones through the direct insertion of carbon dioxide into readily available anilines and dibromoalkanes is described. The addition of catalytic amounts of an organosuperbase such as Barton's base enables this transformation to proceed with high yields and exquisite substrate functional‐group tolerance under ambient CO₂ pressure and mild temperature. This report also provides the first proof‐of‐principle for the single‐operation synthesis of elusive seven‐membered ring cyclic urethanes.

“Integrative sol–gel chemistry”: a nanofoundry for materials science

Integrative sol–gel chemistry based strategies allow, through the strong coupling between materials chemistry and advanced processing, the fabrication of functional inorganic and hybrid materials. The following article will highlight some of the main accomplishments performed during the last years in the design of nano- and multi-scale structured materials shaped as thin films, powders and monoliths with additional functionalities and outstanding properties in several fields of application such as optics, catalysis and nanomedicine. In particular we discuss the key role played by the adapted liquid processing of sol–gel based solution. We will describe some technologies (including dip coating, spray drying, droplet-microfluidics, ink-jet and foaming) in which a high degree of control in term of liquid shaping/evaporation/manipulation is required in order to achieve specific functionalities.     

Synthesis of fused indolines by interrupted Fischer indolization in a microfluidic reactor

This study describes our development of a microfluidic reaction scheme for the synthesis of fused indoline ring systems found in several bioactive compounds. We have utilized a continuous-flow microfluidic reactor for the reaction of hydrazines with latent aldehydes through the interrupted Fischer indolization reaction to form fused indoline and azaindoline products. We have identified optimal conditions and evaluated the scope of this microfluidic reaction using various hydrazine and latent aldehyde surrogates. This green chemistry approach can be of general utility to rapidly produce indoline scaffolds and intermediates in a continuous manner.
