Calculation of Density for Mixtures of Carbon Dioxide with Nitrogen and Methane from the ISM Equation of State

In this paper the analytical equation of state (EoS) proposed by Ihm‐Song‐Mason was applied to calculate molar volume of mixtures of carbon dioxide with nitrogen and methane. The pair interaction potential has been used to evaluate the second virial coefficients and the ISM EoS parameters (i.e. α and b). The calculated values of the aforesaid quantities were applied to predict the molar volumes for mixtures of carbon dioxide with nitrogen and methane. Agreement with experiment was excellent for both mixtures.

Alkyl halides are efficiently converted to their corresponding nitroalkanes under mild and nonaqueous conditions by using polymer supported nitrites. The polymeric reagent is regenerable.     

Fabrication of ozone gas sensor based on FeOOH/single walled carbon nanotube-modified field effect transistor

A novel ozone (O₃) sensor is fabricated using commercial metal oxide field effect transistor (MOSFET), modified with single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs). In this study, integrated circuit (IC: BS250) was selected as the selective probe for O₃ detection. For this purpose, a plastic cover on the surface of the drain was drilled to bare the drain surface, followed by its modification with nitrogen and sulfur-functionalized SWCNTs by chemical vapor deposition (CVD) process. The CVD-synthesized SWCNTs were then electrodeposited with FeOOH nanostructures. According to the figures of merit, the fabricated sensor gave a linear output from 20 to 450 parts per billion (ppb). Detection limit was also 4.1?ppb. Relative standard deviation (RSD) for seven replicate analyses was 3.61%. Based on 90% of maximum response (t₉₀), the response time was ～1.5?min. Calibration sensitivity was measured to 1.3?mV/ppb. No interference was observed, when introducing at least 500 folds of interferences of gaseous species such as H₂O, HCl, H₂S, O₂, H₂, CO, CO₂, NO₂, SO₂, Cl₂, C₂H₂, CH₄ and volatile organic compounds (VOCs) to 250?ppb of O₃ solution. Reliability of the sensor was also evaluated via determination of O₃ in different air samples.     

SYNTHESIS AND BIOLOGICAL ACTIVITY OF SOME NEW 8-HYDROXYQUINOLINE SULPHONAMIDE DERIVATIVES

Abstract

Some new derivatives containing both 8-hydroxyquinoline and sulphonylamino β-lactams and thiazolidinones have been prepared. These compounds were synthesized from the corresponding 8-hydroxyquinoline sulphonylhydrazide (1) by converting it to hydrazones (2). The latter hydrazones (2) were easily transformed to β-lactams (3) and thiazolidinones (4) by cyclocondensation reaction with chloroacetyl chloride and/or mercaptoacetic acid. Some metal chelates with Fe³⁺. Co²⁺+, Ni²⁺, Cu²⁺ and Cd²⁺ have been prepared for some of the compounds and screened in vitro for their biological activity.     

Facile Conversion of Epoxides to Thiiranes with Ammonium Thiocyanate Catalyzed with Oxalic Acid

Epoxids are efficiently converted to the corresponding thiiranes by ammonium thiocyanate (NH 4 SCN) in the presence of catalytic amounts of oxalic acid with excellent isolated yields under mild and nonaqueous reaction conditions. This conversion performed under both conventional heating and microwave conditions. Distinct rate enhancement is observed under microwave irradiation.     

SILICA PHOSPHORIC ACID/NaNO2 AS A NOVEL HETEROGENEOUS SYSTEM FOR THE COUPLING OF THIOLS TO THEIR CORRESPONDING DISULFIDES

Silica phosphoric acid was prepared via reaction of silica chloride (I) and phosphoric acid. Thiols can be readily converted to their corresponding thionitrites with a combination of silica phosphoric acid (II), wet SiO ₂ , and sodium nitrite in dichloromethane at room temperature. Disulfides result from the homolytic cleavage of the sulfur–nitrogen bond of the unstable thionitrite and subsequent coupling of the resultant thiyl radicals.     

ALANINE/CHLOROCHROMIC ACID/SILICA GEL: AN EFFICIENT AND SELECTIVE REAGENT FOR THE OXIDATION OF ORGANIC FUNCTIONAL GROUPS

Alanine/chlorochromic acid/silica gel is a new and selective reagent for the efficient oxidation of sulfides, thiols, oximes, and alcohols. Oxidation of sulfides is solvent dependent. In chloroform at room temperature sulfoxides are formed as the major products, while in carbon tetrachloride or under solvent-free conditions solfones are produced in good-to-excellent yields.     

KF/Al2O3 as an Efficient,Green, and Reusable Catalytic System for the Solvent-Free Synthesis of N-Alkyl Derivatives of Sulfonamides via Michael Reactions

KF/Al ₂ O ₃ efficiently catalyzes the microwave-assisted Michael addition of sulfonamides to α,β-unsaturated esters under solvent-free conditions to afford N-alkyl derivatives of sulfonamides as biologically interesting compounds in high yields and in short reaction times. In this reaction, N,N-dialkylsulfonamides are also produced, but in very low yields.
