Densities, refractive indices, and derived excess properties of tert-butyl alcohol, methyl tert-butyl ether and 2-methylpentane binary and ternary sy…
2000
Abstract This paper reports experimental densities and refractive indices of the binary systems tert-butyl alcohol (TBA)+methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE), TBA+2-methylpentane, and MTBE+2-methylpentane, and the ternary system TBA+MTBE+2-methylpentane, over the entire range of composition at 303.15 K. Excess molar volumes and changes of refractive indices were evaluated from the experimental data obtained. These derived properties were fitted to variable-degree polynomials. The experimental values of physical properties were compared with the values estimated by different methods of prediction.

Abstract This paper reports experimental densities and refractive indices of the binary systems tert -butyl alcohol (TBA)+toluene, +isooctane, and +methylcyclohexane, and toluene+methylcyclohexane, and the ternary system TBA+toluene+methylcyclohexane, over the entire range of composition at 298.15 K. Excess molar volumes and changes of refractive indices were evaluated from the experimental data obtained. These derived properties were fitted to variable-degree polynomials. The experimental values of physical properties were compared with the values estimated by different methods of prediction.
Synthesis, crystal and molecular structure of η3-allylundecacarbonylosmium tetrafluoroborate
1989
Abstract The η3-allylundecacarbonylosmium tetrafluoroborate has been synthesized in high yield by treatment of Os3(CO)11MeCN with allyl alcohol and subsequent protonation. It has been studied by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group Pna21 (no. 33) with a 17.933(2), b 11.440(2), c 11.797(2)A and Dc 2.76 g cm−3 for Z = 4. A final R value of 0.046 (Rw = 0.083) based on 2067 reflections was obtained. The presence of the positively charged allyl ligand in the triosmium cluster lengthens the Os1Os2 and Os2Os3 bonds (0.057A) and 0.074 A, respectively) relative to the OsOs bonds in Os3(CO)12.
A highly reduced graphene oxide/ZrOx–MnCO3 or –Mn2O3 nanocomposite as an efficient catalyst for selective aerial oxidation of benzylic alcohols
2017
Highly reduced graphene oxide (HRG) nanocomposites of manganese carbonate doped with (1%) zirconia (ZrOx) nanoparticles [ZrOx(1%)–MnCO3/(X%)HRG (where X = 0–7)] were prepared employing a facile co-precipitation method in which the percentage of HRG was varied. The resulting nanocomposite was calcined at 300 °C. Further calcination of the catalyst at 500 °C resulted in the conversion of manganese carbonate to manganese oxide [ZrOx(1%)–Mn2O3/(X%)HRG]. The effect of the inclusion of HRG on the catalytic activity along with its comparative performance between carbonates and their respective oxides was studied for the liquid-phase selective oxidation of benzylic alcohols into corresponding aldeh…
Characterization of thermoelectric and thermogravimetric properties of conductive PEDOT:PSS films blended with SWCNTs and PVA
2019
Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene):poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT:PSS) was blended with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) filler to form composites with thermoelectric properties. Studied samples were obtained by drop coating and solution casting methods. Thermoelectric measurements of PEDOT:PSS demonstrated that the addition of 5 wt. % SWCNTs increased the Seebeck coefficient value from 8.0 μV/K to 23.6 μV/K, while in the case of PEDOT:PSS/PVA blended with 5 wt. % SWCNT Seebeck coefficient value of 20.3 μV/K was achieved. Thermogravimetric analysis showed slight SWCNT effect on thermal stability of the investigated systems.
Benzyl Alcohol Assisted Synthesis and Characterization of Highly Reduced Graphene Oxide (HRG)@ZrO2 Nanocomposites
2017
We demonstrate a one-step solvothermal synthesis of HRG@ZrO2 nanocomposites using benzyl alcohol as solvent and stabilizing ligand. The as-synthesized HRG@ZrO2 hybrid nanocomposites showed a homogeneous distribution of the ZrO2 NPs (≈ 5 nm) onto HRG nanosheets. High resolution (HR)TEM, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Raman spectroscopy confirmed the presence of cubic ZrO2. The presence of benzyl alcohol as stabilizing ligand was demonstrated by ultraviolet-visible (UV-vis), Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The reduction of graphene oxide to HRG was also realized by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). A study of the HRG@ZrO2 formation mec…
Synthesis and Comparative Catalytic Study of Zirconia-MnCO3or -Mn2O3for the Oxidation of Benzylic Alcohols
2016
Abstract We report on the synthesis of the zirconia–manganese carbonate ZrO x (x %)–MnCO3 catalyst (where x=1–7) that, upon calcination at 500 °C, is converted to zirconia–manganese oxide ZrO x (x %)–Mn2O3. We also present a comparative study of the catalytic performance of the both catalysts for the oxidation of benzylic alcohol to corresponding aldehydes by using molecular oxygen as the oxidizing agent. ZrO x (x %)–MnCO3 was prepared through co‐precipitation by varying the amounts of Zr(NO3)4 (w/w %) in Mn(NO3)2. The morphology, composition, and crystallinity of the as‐synthesized product and the catalysts prepared upon calcination were studied by using scanning electron microscopy, tr…

Interaction of an odorant lactone with model phospholipid bilayers and its strong fluidizing action in yeast membrane
2003
International audience; Some odorant lactones are naturally present in fruits or in fermented products; they can also be used as food additives and can be produced by microorganisms at the industrial scale by biotechnological processes. Gamma-decalactone was previously shown to have antimicrobial properties. We determined by infrared spectroscopy measurements that this compound rapidly diffused into model phospholipid bilayers (within 2 min), modifying the general physical state of a dimyristoyl-L-alpha-phosphatidylcholine (DMPC) film. In vivo, the lactone strongly increased membrane fluidity in the model yeast Yarrowia lipolytica, as evaluated by fluorescence anisotropy measurements. This …
