Enhancement of photocatalytic degradation of 4-nitrophenol by integrating Ag nanoparticles with ZnO/HZSM-5 nanocomposite

In this paper, Ag/ZnO/HZSM-5ternary nanocomposites with different Ag loadings were prepared by the photo precipitation method. The prepared photocatalysts were characterized by XRD, BET, SEM and TEM. The photocatalytic activity of ZnO/HZSM-5 for 4-nitrophenol (4-NP) degradation was increased by silver doping. Effects of various parameters such as the initial concentration of 4-NP, pH and Ag […]

Pyridinium based ionic liquids as promoters for a green and selective synthesis of N-monomethylanilines

Pyridinium based ionic liquids derived from β-picoline and n-alkylbromides were synthesized by a simple procedure at ambient temperature and then characterized. These neutral ionic liquids were investigated for their dual role as the solvent and promoter for the selective synthesis of a series of N-monomethylanilines using dimethylcarbonate as the methylating agent. A solvent free green […]

Regularities of solid-phase interaction of tin and molybdenum oxides: Catalytic properties

The interaction in the system of SnO2 and h-MoO3 prepared by their joint mechanical activation in a roller-ring vibratory mill was investigated. A series of catalysts was prepared with SnO2: h-MoO3 molar ratio 1:1; 1:2.3; 2.3:1 and 5.7:1. The catalysts were characterized by various techniques including X-ray phase, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and synchronous thermal analysis, […]

A simple and green approach for the synthesis of substituted dihydro-2-oxypyrroles catalyzed by nano-Fe3O4@SiO2/SnCl4 superparamagnetic nanoparticles

In this work, an efficient and green procedure for the synthesis of dihydro-2-oxypyrroles has been developed. One-pot four-component condensation reaction of aniline derivatives (2 mmol), dialkyl acetylene dicarboxylate (1 mmol), and aldehydes ( 1 mmol) was done in ethanol at 65 °C in the presence of nano-Fe3O4@SiO2/SnCl4 as a magnetically reusable heterogeneous acid catalyst. The […]

Green approach for the synthesis of pyranopyrazoles and hexahydroquinoline-3-carboxamides using unripe grape juice (verjuice) as catalyst

Unripe grape juice (verjuice) as a natural catalyst was successfully applied to perform the one-pot reaction of aryl aldehydes, malononitrile, hydrazine hydrate and ethyl acetoacetate to synthesize pyranopyrazole derivatives in aqueous ethanol at room temperature in excellent yields. Furthermore, unripe grape juice catalyzed one-pot synthesis of hexahydroquinoline-3-carboxamide derivatives by the four-component reaction of arylaldehydes, dimedone, […]

Kinetic comparison of Ni/Al2O3 and Ni/MgO-Al2O3 nano structure catalysts in CO2 reforming of methane

The kinetic characteristics of the Ni/Al2O3 and Ni/MgO-Al2O3 catalysts were investigated in CO2 reforming of methane (CRM). The reaction orders (α and β) and the rate constant (k) were calculated using the non-linear regression analysis, in which the sum of the squared differences of calculated and experimental CO2 reforming of methane rates were minimized. The […]
