The antioxidant activity, in terms of radical scavenging capacity, altogether 15 different lignans was measured by monitoring the free 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH). effect differences skeletal arrangement or degree oxidation investigated a structure–activity relationship study. A large variety capacities observed and related to some structural features. Lignans with catechol (3,4-dihydroxyphenyl) moieties exhibited highest while corresponding guaiacyl (3-methoxy-4-hydroxyphenyl)...
Direct catalytic valorization of bioethanol to 1-butanol over different alumina supported catalysts was studied. Thirteen (13) heterogeneous were screened in search for the optimal material composition direct one-pot conversion ethanol 1-butanol. For most promising catalyst, a 25% with 80% selectivity (among liquid carbon products) could be reached at 250 °C. Additionally, reaction kinetics and mechanisms further investigated upon use suitable catalyst candidate.
Epoxidation of cottonseed oil by peroxyformic acid (PFA) was studied in a semibatch calorimeter. This liquid–liquid reaction system is composed different exothermic steps. Thus, kinetic modeling strategy to diminish the number parameters estimate developed investigating each system: PFA synthesis and decomposition, ring‐opening epoxidation. A thermal study conducted determining heat capacity organic species, analyzing evolution global heat‐transfer coefficient with extent. The epoxidation...
The reaction kinetics of deoxydehydration + hydrogenation (DODH HG; didehydroxylation) erythritol to butanediols and n-butane over the ReOx-Pd/CeO2 catalyst was investigated. Competitive adsorption polyols deactivation during DODH HG were necessary be considered in kinetics. order strength on surface >1,2-butanediol > water >1,4-butanediol monoalcohols. investigated with two models: time-dependent conversion-dependent ones. model better fitted both activities reused catalysts time-course...
While synthesis of hydroxymethyl derivatives common terpenes by a reaction with formaldehyde (FA) has been commercialized, no open data are available on the preparation such α-pinene derivatives. Here, an approach for renewable (–)-α-pinene catalytic utilization its condensation FA into novel terpenoid 8-acetoxy-6-hydroxymethyllimonene is proposed. Both homogeneous acids and aluminosilicates (halloysite nanotubes pretreated H3PO4 HCl, montmorillonite K-10, zeolite H-Beta-25) have...
The migration of acetyl, pivaloyl, and benzoyl protective groups their relative stabilities at variable pH for a series β-d-galactopyranoses were studied by NMR spectroscopy. clockwise counterclockwise rates the different ester accurately determined use kinetic model. results presented provide new insights into acid base commonly used protecting phenomenon acyl group may prove useful in planning synthesis strategies.
Hierarchical beta zeolites obtained in the concentrated reaction mixtures (H2O/Si = 2.5) and micromesoporous materials synthesized using a dual-template approach from zeolite precursor were rigorously characterized tested sustainable environmentally friendly process of α-pinene oxide isomerization. The highest yield trans-carveol (42%) with chemopreventive activity mammary carcinogenesis was achieved over low crystalline by well-developed mesoporosity, an increased fraction weak-to-medium...
