A unique C–H allylation has been discovered with unbiased aliphatic olefins. An intimate M–L affiliation between a high-valent cobalt catalyst and amino-quinoline derived benzamides found to be crucial for this unprecedented selectivity. exemplary set of olefins, high yields coupled excellent regio- stereoselectivity, wide functional group tolerances are noteworthy. In addition, catalytically competent organometallic Co(III) species identified through X-ray crystallography. This study is...
In this report, we disclose the distal C–H olefination of biphenyl systems with high regio- and stereo-selectivity useful synthetic yields.

 Friction sensitivity of composite propellants and their ingredients is significant interest to mitigate the risk associated with accidental initiation while processing, handling, transportation. In this work, attempts were made examine friction passive binder: Hydroxy Terminated Polybutadiene/Aluminium/Ammonium Perchlorate active (Polymer + Nitrate Esters)/Ammonium Perchlorate/Aluminium/Nitramine based by using BAM Apparatus. As per recommendation NATO standard STANAG–4487, was...
Abstract The cure kinetics of 4‐ (dimethylsilyl) butyl ferrocene grafted hydroxyl terminated polybutadiene (HTPB) with Isophorone diisocyante (IPDI) was investigated using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). Furthermore, the catalytic effect Iron (III) acetylacetonate (Fe(AA) 3 ) and Dibutyltin dilaurate (DBTDL) on curing reaction studied. experimental data fitted to Kissinger Ozawa models, kinetic parameters were expressed as Arrhenius activation energy (E), pre‐exponential factor (A)...
Abstract The flow behaviour of 4‐(Dimethylsilyl) butyl ferrocene‐grafted HTPB‐based composite propellant (P01) and basic aluminized (P02) was investigated using shear rheometer. experimental data were fitted to ‘power law’ for non‐Newtonian fluid flow, the rheological parameters expressed as consistency index (k) pseudoplasticity (n). For both compositions, a thinning nature (pseudoplasticity index; n < 1) has been observed. study categorically showed that incorporation HTPB resulted in...
The acoustic emission technique has been considered to be one of the most reliable and robust methods for measurement steady burning rate composite propellants. In this work, attempts were made quantify variability solid propellants by method using statistical tools. A total 1100 individual measurements subjected treatment. combination confidence interval repeatability limit delineated extent natural dispersion in data. very high coefficient variation values propellant compositions, having a...
