A number of aldehydes and ketones were prepared by oxidation of alcohol by N,N‐dichloro‐4‐methylbenzenesulfonamide under mild and neutral conditions in good to high yield in dichloromethane at room temperature.     

Layer optimization in wight organic light emitting diodes (WOLEDs) to reduce the portion of guided waves in ITO/Glass interface

In this paper, our main attempt was to reduce Total Internal Reflection (TIR) happening at Indium Tin Oxide (ITO, n_ito = 1.8 + 0.01i) and Glass (n_glass = 1.51) interface, which is due to ITO's higher index in comparison with Glass's, that makes light guided in ITO layer, 50% of generated light in Wight Organic Light Emitting Diodes (WOLED) are trapped in ITO layer; here we tried to reduce this portion of trapped light by implying 12-fold quasi-photonic crystal to the mentioned interface. With some gentle changes in 12-fold's structure we could reduce TIR in this interface to less than 9%. Also, far field results before and after adding the structure to WOLED were studied, which represents suitability of using this structure for lighting applications.     

Supported N-propylsulfamic acid on magnetic nanoparticles used as recoverable and recyclable catalyst for the synthesis of 2, 3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones in water

An efficient and eco-friendly method is reported for the synthesis of 2-substituted-2,3-dihydroquinazolin -4（1 H）-ones from direct cyclocondensation of anthranilamide with aldehydes and ketones using N-propylsulfamic acid supported onto magnetic Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles（MNPs-PSA） as a recoverable and recyclable nanocatalyst in good to excellent yields in water at 70℃.The catalyst was readily separated using an external magnet and reusable without significant loss of their catalytic efficiency.     

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.     

Microwave-Assisted Chemoselective Regeneration of Carbonyl Compounds from Oximes by Silica Chromate/WET SiO2 Under Solvent-Free Conditions

The regeneration of carbonyl compounds from oximes were performed by using silica chromate and wet SiO ₂ (w/w 50%) under microwave irradiation and solvent-free conditions with excellent yields.

Efficient Route for the Synthesis of New Dinaphthosulfoxide Aza Crowns Using Ethyleneglycol Under Microwave (MW) Irradiation: Macrocyclization is Preferred to Oligomerization Under MW Irradiation

Abstract

New dinaphthosulfoxide aza crowns were prepared from the corresponding dinaphthosulfoxide diester and diamines under reflux conditions (conventional heating) and microwave (MW) irradiation. These reaction routes were used for the synthesis of a series of aza crowns, such as dinaphthosulfide, dinaphthosulfone, dibenzosulfide, and dibenzosulfoxide. The synthesis of aza crowns under MW irradiation in comparison with conventional heating has several advantages, such as shorter reaction times, simpler reaction conditions, and the use of ecofriendly solvents, higher yields, and regioselectivity. In the MW synthesis, macrocyclization is preferred to oligomerization, and thus, the yields of byproducts are low.

Synthesis of New 1-Naphthol Aza Oxa Thia Crowns

Abstract

New dinaphthosulfide aza oxa thia crowns from 1-naphthol were prepared. At first, 2,2′-thiobis(1-hydroxynaphthalene) (a dinaphthol) was prepared from 1-naphthol. Then diester was prepared from the reaction of dinaphthol and methylchloroacetate. Aza crowns were synthesized from the reaction of diester and diamines (ethylene diamine, 1,3-diaminopropane, 1,4-diaminobutane, and 1,6-diaminohexane) in methanol.

Analysis of one-dimensional Fibonacci-class quasicrystals using perturbation theory

In this work, we present a new and semi-analytical method to investigate one-dimensional Fibonacci-class photonic quasicrystals from waveguiding properties point of view. Usually, the exact treatment for obtaining band diagram in these situations is very hard and the numerical methods are used. In this paper, we investigate the waveguiding properties of one-dimensional quasicrystals by using perturbation method. In this direction, the band diagram and field distribution of this structure are investigated.
