Advances In Polymer Based Friedlander Quinoline Synthesis, Rajendra Patil, Jagdish Chavan, Shivnath Patel, Anil Beldar Jan 2021

Advances In Polymer Based Friedlander Quinoline Synthesis, Rajendra Patil, Jagdish Chavan, Shivnath Patel, Anil Beldar

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Nitrogen containing heterocyclic compounds has acquired their remarkable and distinct place in the wide area of organic synthesis due to the broad range of applications. Among them, quinoline motifs have attracted researchers in the synthetic chemistry because of its presence in the large number of pharmacologically active compounds. Different methods for synthesis of quinoline derivatives are reported, among them the Friedlander synthesis have provided comparatively more efficient approach. Many of the reported conventional Friedlander methodologies have some problems such as difficult product isolation procedures, poor yields and use of expensive catalysts, etc. Recently, polymer or solid supported synthetic approaches have …


Catalytic Hydrogenation Of Furfural And Furfuryl Alcohol To Fuel Additives And Value-Added Chemicals, Obaid Aldosari, Hamed Alshammari, Mosaed Alhumaimess, Ibrahim Wawata Jan 2019

Catalytic Hydrogenation Of Furfural And Furfuryl Alcohol To Fuel Additives And Value-Added Chemicals, Obaid Aldosari, Hamed Alshammari, Mosaed Alhumaimess, Ibrahim Wawata

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The selective hydrogenation of furfural and furfuryl alcohol at different temperatures has been studied using several catalysts. The effect of various reaction conditions (pressure, catalyst amount, and solvent) was studied. We have shown that Pd/TiO$_{2}$ catalysts can be very effective for the synthesis of 2-methylfuran at room temperature. Using octane as a solvent, the solvent effectiveness was investigated and showed actively high selectivity towards 2-methylfuran and furfuryl alcohol, but there were many byproducts that were still noticed. Although adding Ru to the Pd/TiO$_{2}$ catalyst contributed to reducing the catalytic activity, this addition improved the selectivity to 2-methylfuran and furfuryl alcohol …


Oxidative Dehydrogenation Of Propane Over V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ And K$_{2}$O-V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ Impregnated Mgal$_{2}$O$_{4}$Catalysts, Serkan Naci̇ Koç, Kübra Dayioğlu, Hasan Özdemi̇r Jan 2016

Oxidative Dehydrogenation Of Propane Over V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ And K$_{2}$O-V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ Impregnated Mgal$_{2}$O$_{4}$Catalysts, Serkan Naci̇ Koç, Kübra Dayioğlu, Hasan Özdemi̇r

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ and K$_{2}$O-V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ impregnated MgAl$_{2}$O$_{4}$ catalysts were prepared and tested for the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane. The as-synthesized catalysts were characterized by using the XRD, BET, NH$_{3}$-TPD, TPR, and XPS methods. The catalytic tests were performed in a fixed bed tubular quartz reactor system between 450 and 550 $^{\circ}$C. It was observed that the conversion of propane increased but hydrocarbon selectivity decreased with increasing temperature over the V$_{2}$O$_{5}$/MgAl$_{2}$O$_{4}$ catalysts. The BET surface area values and surface acidities decreased upon potassium addition for the K-V$_{2}$O$_{5}$/MgAl$_{2}$O$_{4}$ catalysts, which resulted in a drastic drop in the conversion values obtained. The propylene and total …


Performance Evaluation Of Platinum-Based Catalysts For The Development Of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells, Abdul Sattar Ali Khan, Riaz Ahmed, Muhammad Latif Mirza Jan 2010

Performance Evaluation Of Platinum-Based Catalysts For The Development Of Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells, Abdul Sattar Ali Khan, Riaz Ahmed, Muhammad Latif Mirza

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Platinum-based catalysts are considered the most efficient catalysts for triggering electrochemical reactions in proton exchange membrane (PEM) fuel cells. In the present study, commercial catalysts containing 10% and 30% Pt supported on Vulcan XC-72 carbon were studied to assess their performance in PEM fuel cells. Both catalysts consisted of Pt particles of almost the same size. The utility of these catalysts in PEM fuel cells was studied by finding the real surface area and rate of electro-oxidation of methanol in 0.5 M H_2SO_4 by using cyclic voltammetry. The methanol oxidation reaction was used for characterization of catalysts of PEM fuel …


Synthesis Of Piperazine Based Polyimide In The Presence Of Ionic Liquids, Bülent Alici, Süleyman Köytepe, Turgay Seçki̇n Jan 2007

Synthesis Of Piperazine Based Polyimide In The Presence Of Ionic Liquids, Bülent Alici, Süleyman Köytepe, Turgay Seçki̇n

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Ionic liquids derived from imidazolium, pyridinium, and alkylammonium salts were investigated not only as catalysts but also as solvents in polymerization of 1,4-bis(3-aminopropyl) piperazine. Results were compared with the conventional polymerizations in N-methylpyrrolidone (NMP). The catalyst has not only a detectable influence on polymer solubility, but also the degrees of polymerization are notably higher. They are even greater than the values obtained by conventional 2-stage polymerization in organic liquids. Ionic liquids based on imidazolium salts seem preferable over pyridinium and alkylammonium salts due to the higher degree of polydispersity of the polyimides obtained. The glass transition temperatures and thermal stabilities …
