Efficient Epoxidation of Alkenes using New Organometallic Catalysts ((E)-2,6-dimethoxy-4-((2-(5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-yl)hydrazono)methyl)phenol M: Cr, Fe, Co, Cu): An Antimicrobial and Theoretical Study of Catalyst

In this research, a novel approach for the epoxidation of alkene derivatives was constructed. Based on this fact, the appropriate ligand was provided from the reaction of hydrazine hydrate and 5-methyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole-2-thiol. Then, after preparation of the intermediate compound, the treatment of the pointed compound and 4-hydroxy-3,5-dimethoxybenzaldehyde in the presence of a few drops of glacial […]

Fe3O4 Nanoparticles from FeSiAl Alloy of Spent Printed Circuit Boards and its Application in Dye Degradation

Fe is an important element, used in soft magnetic materials (cores) in electrical and electronic devices and its concentration in e-waste is high. Thus, this study is aimed to recover Fe from the soft magnetic FeSiAl cores of spent printed circuit boards (PCBs). Here, the Fe-rich FeSiAl cores were identified, separated manually, and subjected to […]

Effect of surfactant on structural and optical properties of V2O5 nanocrystals as a potential catalyst for photodegradation

An anionic, cationic, and non-ionic surfactant-assisted wet chemical method was used to synthesize vanadium pentoxide (V2O5) nanocrystals. XRD, FESEM, EDX, FTIR, UV-Vis, and PL techniques were used to characterize the V2O5 nanocrystals. The formation of V2O5 nanocrystals is confirmed by the experimental results. The addition of surfactants had a significant effect on the morphology, crystallinity, […]
