This three-component reaction has some advantages such as ease of handling, good yields, and easy purification. All structures were confirmed by infrared, mass, ¹H NMR, and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy.     

Synthesis of Some New 1,2,4‐Triazole Derivatives by Mitsunobu Chemistry

The reactive 1 : 1 intermediate produced in the reaction between triphenylphosphine and diisopropyl azodicarboxylate has been trapped by isocyanates or isothiocyanates to yield 1,2,4‐triazole derivatives 2 (Scheme 1). The structures of the highly functionalized compounds 2 were corroborated spectroscopically (IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR, EI‐MS) and by elemental analyses. A mechanism for this type of cyclization is proposed (Scheme 2).     

Investigating Concurrent-Mode Operation of Dual-Band Class-J/J Power Amplifiers: Analysis and Design Technique

In this paper, concurrent-mode operation of dual-band PAs under simultaneous drive of two stimuli is investigated. It is shown that Class-J operation is well suited for this mode of operation as its concurrent-mode efficiency is less affected by the load reactance tuning accuracy at inter-modulation frequencies. This characteristic results in preserved efficiencies over wider bandwidths, and simplicity of intermodulation tuning network (IMTN) realization. It has been also shown that dual-band Class-J/J PA fully takes advantage of the transistor’s nonlinear output capacitance in case of simultaneously driven input by boosting the efficiency. A Class-J/J concurrent dual-band PA with IMTN is designed and implemented which operates over 1.842/2.655 GHz bands. About 40 dBm output power and efficiencies more than 70% at lower band and upper band are obtained according to the experimental results while the concurrent-mode efficiency is about 61.2%.

A Novel and Efficient Synthesis of Pyrido[1,2‐a]‐Fused 1,3‐Diazaheterocyclic Compounds via a One‐Pot Three‐Component Reaction

An efficient one‐pot synthesis of pyrido[1,2‐a]‐fused 1,3‐diazaheterocyclic compounds by three‐component reaction of diamine, nitroketene dithioacetal (=1,1‐bis(methylsulfanyl)‐2‐nitroethene), and electron‐poor itaconic anhydride (=2‐methylidenesuccinic anhydride=2‐methylidenebutanedioic anhydride) in aqueous EtOH is reported. This protocol has the advantages of easiness, higher yields, and shorter reaction times. The structures were corroborated spectroscopically (IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR, and EI‐MS) and by elemental analyses. A plausible mechanism for this type of cyclization is proposed (Scheme 2).     

Calculation of electromagnetic waves scattering by non-homogeneous surface impedance using moment method

In this paper, using the method of moments to calculate the current density and mono-static and bi-static radar cross section of an unlimited strip by a non-homogeneous impedance. Here, incident wave is a plane wave. To authenticate the method, using the iterative method to solve the integral equations is engaged. Simulation results show that the surface with non-homogeneous impedance has reduced or increase in potential for bi- and mono-static radar cross section in certain azimuth.     

An Approach to the Synthesis of 7‐Amino‐6‐imino‐9‐phenyl‐6H‐benzo[c]chromene‐8‐carbonitrile Derivatives via a Three‐Component Reaction under Ultrasonic Irradiation

Synthesis and Characterization of Indium-borate Glass-ceramics Containing Ho0.01Ce0.74Zr0.25O1.995 Nanorods via Incorporation Method

Glasses in the system 5In₂O₃·94Na₂B₄O₇ were fabricated via melt quenching technique. The amorphous nature of the quenched glasses was confirmed by X‐ray powder diffraction studies, and the infrared spectra of the glasses show no boroxol ring formation in the structure of these glasses. Differential thermal analysis is shown glass transition temperature 696°C and crystallization temperature 1151°C. A cerium‐zirconium mixed oxide Ce_0.75Zr_0.25O₂ and Ho‐doped cerium‐zirconium mixed oxide were obtained by solid‐state method. Then glass powder and Ho‐doped cerium‐zirconium mixed oxide were mixed. The mixture was heated in a crucible. The glass‐ceramic sample was obtained by pouring the melts on stainless steel. Obtained samples were annealed at 450°C for 1 h to remove thermal strain. Differential thermal analysis for glass‐ceramic sample is shown glass transition temperature 668°C and crystallization temperature 1159°C. The scanning electron microscopy study for glass‐ceramic indicates that the crystallized glass consists of rod‐like crystals with average diameter of about 38 nm dispersed in the glassy regions.
