Comparative analysis of isopropyl alcohol dehydration using ionic liquids and deep eutectic solvent
The current article deals with the separation of the azeotropic mixture of isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and water using an ionic liquid, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([EMIM][BF4]) and Deep Eutectic Solvents (DESs), Choline Chloride/glycerol ...

Microwave-assisted YBa2Cu3O7 precursors : a fast and reliable method towards chemical precursors for superconducting films [PDF]
Highly stable, pure, and anhydrous organometallic YBa2Cu3O7- (YBCO) precursor solutions were prepared by dissolving commercial YBCO powder in acetone by trifluoroacetic anhydride (TFAA) or a mixture of TFAA with propionic acid for low fluorine precursors.

Pretreatment of citrus by-products affects polyphenol recovery:a review [PDF]
A large amount of citrus waste is generated annually. This waste is of great economic worth, since it contains high levels of polyphenols, which have attracted scientific interest due to their potent antimicrobial and antiradical activities. Pretreatment

Unusual shape-preserved pathway of a core-shell phase transition triggered by orientational disorder
The ubiquitous presence of crystal defects provides great potential and opportunities to construct the desired structure (hence with the desired properties) and tailor the synthetic process of crystalline materials.

Dynamic interplay between defective UiO‐66 and protic solvents in activated processes [PDF]
UiO-66, composed by Zr-oxide inorganic bricks [Zr-6(mu(3)-O)(4)(mu(3)-OH)(4)] and organic terephthalate linkers, is one of the most studied metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) due to its exceptional thermal, chemical, and mechanical stability.

Mechanistic analysis of an asymmetric palladium-catalyzed conjugate addition of arylboronic acids to β-substituted cyclic enones. [PDF]
An asymmetric palladium-catalyzed conjugate addition reaction of arylboronic acids to enone substrates was investigated mechanistically. Desorption electrospray ionization coupled to mass spectrometry was used to identify intermediates of the catalytic ...
