Polyaniline clay nanocomposite can be prepared by mechano-chemical method in which intercalation of anilinium ion into the clay lattices accomplished by mechanical grinding of sodium montmorillonite (Na+MMT) in presence of anilinium hydrochloride at room temperature using mortar & pestle for about 30 min and subsequent grinding with oxidizing agent, ammonium peroxysulfate. The appearance of green colour indicates the formation of polyaniline/clay nanocomposite (PANI/Clay). Similarly aniline derivatives likeo-toludine ando-anisidine in the form of HCl salt can form intercalation into the clay lattices. The intercalated aniline derivatives were ground mechanically in presence of oxidizing agent ammonium peroxysulfate lead to formation of substituted polyaniline/ clay nanocomposites. The characteristics of various polyaniline-clay nanocomposites were investigated using UV-Visible, FT-IR, cyclic voltammetry studies.

Many complexes of 3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl phenyl methanone with Cr(III), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II) and Cd(II) were synthesized and characterized by FT-IR, UV/visible spectra, elemental analysis, room temperature magnetic susceptibility and molar conductivity. Cd(II) complex was expected to have tetrahedral structure while all the other complexes were expected to have an octahedral structure.

The advanced oxidation of Congo red (CR) and Nigrosine (NI) using the combined action of dimethyl dioxirane as an oxidising agent is described in this study. The effects of several parameters, such as the concentration of the oxidising agent, the initial dye concentration, and the pH, have been investigated. At room temperature, the oxidising agent dimethyl dioxirane was employed to test the degradation of CR and NI dyes. On the degradation efficiency of CR and NI, pH’s effects, oxidising agent, and initial dye concentration were examined. The absorbance of CR and NI dyes before and after degradation was measured using UV-visible spectroscopy. The functional group existing in the dyes before and after degradation was determined using FT-IR spectroscopy.

Abstract This study describes a simple, high-yield, rapid, and inexpensive route for the synthesis of cubic shape-like cerium oxide nanocubes (CeO2 NCs) using different urea concentrations (0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 g) by the hydrothermal method. The synthesized nanocubes (NCs) are labeled as CeO2 NCs-0.5, CeO2 NCs-1.0, and CeO2 NCs-2.0, corresponding to 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0 g of urea, respectively. The synthesized NCs were characterized by FT-IR, UV-visible, XRD, XPS, SEM and HR-TEM analysis. The synthesized NCs were cubic in shape with average sizes of 12, 12, and 13 nm for the CeO2 NCs-0.5, CeO2 NCs-1.0, and CeO2 NCs-2.0, respectively, obtained by the XRD analysis. The catalytic activity of the CeO2 NCs was studied for the purpose of obtaining the reduction of malachite green (MG) in the presence of sodium borohydride (NaBH4) at room temperature.

Chromium )III), cobalt (II), nickel (II), copper (II) and cadmium (II) complexes of 3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl phenyl methanone and 1-benzoyl-3-methyl-1H-pyrazol-5(4H)-one have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, UV/visible spectra, and room temperature magnetic susceptibility. Cadmium complex is expected to have tetrahedral structure while the other complexes are expected to have octahedral structure. The free ligands and their metal complexes have been tested in vitro against a number of microorganisms (Staphylococcus aurous, E.coli, Proteus vulgaris, Pseudomonas, and Klebsiella) in order to assess their antimicrobial properties.

The solubility of the compound is a crucial task for new drug design. Quinone is a promising candidate to develop as a new drug. In this research, the synthesis of 1,4-benzoquinone derivatives, that is, 2-(5-bromoamyl)-3,5-dimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone (2a) and 2-(5-bromoamyl)-5-methyl-1,4-benzoquinone (2b) were carried out by decarboxylation and insertion reaction of alkyl bromides. The product 2a and 2b are purified using SiO2 gel column chromatography and analyzed by UV-Visible, FT-IR, and NMR. The yield of 2a is 13.75%, and 2b is 4.04%. The solubility of 2a and 2b, expressed by log P, is measured in the n-octanol/water (3:7 (v/v)) system by the shake flask method. The log P of 2a and 2b are 2.99 and 1.36, respectively. It is showed that the log P of 2a is higher compared to 2b. The presence of two methyl substituents on the quinone ring of 2a supports the increase of hydrophobicity of the compound in the n-octanol/water system.

Copper ferrite (CuFe2O4) magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) were synthesized via thermal decomposition method and applied as a reusable and green catalyst in the synthesis of functionalized 4H-pyran derivatives using malononitrile, an aromatic aldehyde and a β-ketoester in ethanol at room temperature. Then it was characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis, scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images, thermo gravimetric and differential thermo gravimetric (TGA/DTG) analysis. The catalyst was recovered from the reaction mixture by applying an external magnet and decanting the mixture. Recycled catalyst was reused for several times without significant loss in its activity. Running the one-pot three-component reaction at room temperature, no use of eternal energy source and using a green solvent provide benign, mild, and environmentally friendly reaction conditions; as well, ease of catalyst recovering, catalyst recyclability, no use of column chromatography and good to excellent yields are extra advantages of this work.

Photothermal materials are attracting more and more attention. In this research, we synthesized a ferrocene-containing polymer with magnetism and photothermal properties. The resulting polymer was characterized by Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), vibrating sample magnetometer (VSM), scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Its photo-thermocatalytic activity was investigated by choosing methylene blue (MB) as a model compound. The degradation percent of MB under an irradiated 808 nm laser reaches 99.5% within 15 min, and the degradation rate is 0.5517 min−1, which is 145 times more than that of room temperature degradation. Under irradiation with simulated sunlight, the degradation rate is 0.0092 min−1, which is approximately 2.5 times more than that of room temperature degradation. The present study may open up a feasible route to degrade organic pollutants.
