Prediction of Solubility Parameters Based on the Explicit Expression of Statistical Thermodynamics

A robust and efficient procedure is presented for calculating the solubility parameter. An analytical equation for internal pressure is proposed. Through a simple relation reported by Verdier and Andersen (fluid phase equilibrium 231: 125–137, 2005), one can easily find the solubility parameter via our analytical equation for the internal pressure. Also, the radial distribution function (RDF) of a Lennard–Jones LJ (12, 6) fluid, proposed by Xu and Hu (fluid phase equilibrium 30: 221–228, 1986), has been employed to calculate the internal pressure of normal alkanes from methane to decane. Their solubility parameters were evaluated according to the calculated values of the internal pressure. A comparison between the experimental and the estimated values demonstrated a very good agreement between them.

聚乙烯基吡啶高氯酸盐作为高效固体酸催化剂在无溶剂条件下催化醛化学选择性制备二乙酸盐(英文)

Poly(4-vinylpyridinium) perchlorate has been used as a supported,recyclable,environmentally-benign catalyst for the formation of acylals from aliphatic and aromatic aldehydes in good to excellent yields under solvent-free conditions.Notably,the reaction conditions were tolerant of ketones.This methodology offers several distinct advantages,including its operational simplicity and high product yield,as well as being green in terms of avoiding the use of toxic catalysts and solvents.Furthermore,the catalyst can be recovered and reused several times without any loss in its activity.     

Anchored Ni-dimethylglyoxime complex on Fe3O4@SiO2 core/shell nanoparticles for the clean catalytical synthesis of dicoumarols

Ni-Dimethylglyoxime complex immobilized on functionalized Fe₃O₄ was synthesized by a post-grafting way and utilized as a novel, thermally stable, recoverable, and efficient for green synthesis of dicoumarols through reaction of 4-hydroxycoumarin with various aldehydes in excellent yields and higher rate. Fe₃O₄@SiO₂-silylcyclopropyl-dimethylglyoxime-Ni superparamagnetic nanoparticles (MNP_s) were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction, vibrating sample magnetometer, and Brunauer–Emmett–Teller technique. This nanocatalyst could be conveniently recovered via the use of an external magnetic field and reused for subsequent reactions for at least 7 times without any remarkable change and decrease in catalytic activity.     

Synthesis,characterization and cytotoxicity of new 2‐isonicotinoyl‐N‐phenylhydrazine‐1‐carbothioamide and its metal complexes

The reaction of the newly synthesized ligand, 2‐isonicotinoyl‐N‐phenylhydrazine‐1‐carbothioamide (H₃L), with acetate salt of Co (II), Cu (II),Ni (II) and Zn (II) led to isolation of four solid complexes. The ligand and complexes structure elucidation were based on elemental analyses, spectral analyses (IR, UV–Visible, ¹H and¹³C‐NMR, MS and ESR), TGA, molar conductivity and magnetic moments measurements. The results indicated that the ligand exists in the thioketo form, while on coordination to the metal ions; it behaves as mono‐negative bidentate chelate and exists in enol form. The optical band gap measurements of the ligand and its metal complexes are in the range 3.83–4.48 eV indicating their semi‐conducting character. The cytotoxicity examination of H₃L and its Zn (II) complex showed that the ligand have very strong cytotoxicity against both HCT‐116 and HEPG‐2 cell lines while, Zn (II) complex has moderate activity.
