In this work, the performance of graphene nanosheets (GNs) and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets, as a support for palladium nanoparticles (PdNPs) toward oxygen reduction reaction (ORR), was studied. The graphene nanosheets were functionalized by a new and simple method. The PdNPs were synthesized on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) modified with GNs or GO via a potentiostatic method; without using any templates, surfactants or stabilizers. The surface morphology of the modified electrodes was studied by scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray and X-ray diffraction techniques. Cyclic voltammetry and rotating disk electrode (RDE) voltammetry methods were used for calculation of electrochemical parameters of the ORR. The GCE modified with PdNPs-GO exhibited a higher catalytic activity in comparison with PdNPs-GNs toward ORR. The high electrocatalytic activity of PdNPs-GO/GCE was attributed to oxygen-containing groups that were formed on the GO during functionalization of graphene nanosheets. These groups act as anchoring sites for metal nanoparticles and improve their dispersion on GO nanosheets. Also, mechanism of ORR was intensively investigated and transferred electron numbers in reaction was calculated using RDE data analysis. Finally, stability of the modified electrodes was studied and the results confirmed that the GCE modified with PdNPs-GO has a long-term stability.

A novel Schiff-base ligand (L: 2-[(4-chloro-2-oxo-2H-chromen-3-ylmethylene)-amino] propionic acid) was prepared from the reaction of 4-chloro3-formylcoumarin and alanine amino acid. Copper (II) complex was synthesized from the reaction of the ligand with Cu (OAc)2. H2O in ethanol. The ligand and its metal complex were characterized by elemental analysis (CHN), ICP, thermal analysis (TGA), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), 1HNMR, and 13C NMR techniques. The complex was found to be an efficient catalyst and reusable in the selective oxidation of sulfides to the corresponding sulfoxides without the formation of any sulfone using the green oxidant, H2O2, at room temperature and under solvent-free conditions.

A protocol for the synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines (Hantzsch type-products) was developed by means of a three-component condensation of an aldehyde, a β-dicarbonyl compound, ammonium acetate and nano Al2O3/KF as catalyst. This reaction was carried out under different conditions including i) solvent-free ii) and reflux in different solvents. In all conditions, the desired products were obtained in high yields after relatively short reaction times. Nevertheless, the reactions proceed faster and in higher yields when they were carried out in ethanol. Compared to the classical Hantzsch reaction conditions and previously reported protocols, this protocol has the advantages of consistently excellent yields and short reaction times. After the reaction, the catalyst could be recovered easily.

The structure of the acrylate monomer was established on the basis of FT-IR, 1H NMR, 13C NMR, MS and elemental analysis. This monomer was polymerized using 2,2´-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as the initiator in N,N-dimethylformamide solution. Thermal stability of the polymer was investigated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). The synthesized compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial activity against Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria using the disk diffusion method. The results of antibacterial assay indicated that these compounds exhibited moderate bactericidal activity.

In this research, the effects of HCN adsorption on the surface of the pristine, Ge, P, and GeP doped boron nitride nanotube (BNNTs) are investigated by using density function theory at the B3LYP/6–31G(d, p) level of theory. At the first step, we consider different configurations for adsorbing HCN molecule on the surface of BNNTs. The optimized models are used to calculate the structural, electrical, NQR parameters and quantum descriptors such as global hardness, global softness, electrophilicity, gap energy, Fermi level energy, electronic chemical potential, and electronegativity of BNNTs/HCN complex. Inspection of results demonstrates that with doping Ge impurity the sensivity of BNNTs for adsorbing HCN molecule increase significantly from original values. The adsorption of HCN molecule on the surface of Ge-doped is more stable and favourable than other those models. With adsorbing of HCN gas and doping of Ge and GeP the NQR, quantum molecular descriptors and molecular orbital energies of the nanotube alter significantly from original state. On the other hand the electrophilicity index of E model is more than those other models.

2-Amino-5,10-dioxo-4-aryl-5,10-dihydro-4H-benzo[g]chromene-3-carbonitrile derivatives are obtained in excellent yields with a simple and efficient procedure.This reaction can occur using electrocatalytic multicomponent chain transformation of aryl aldehydes, 2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione and malononitrile under neutral and mild conditions. Moreover, electrolysis is done in CH3CN as solvent, Tetrabutylammonium fluoride (TBAF) as an effective supporting electrolyte and an iron electrode as the cathode and a graphite electrode as the anode in undivided cell. Also Excellent conversions of the starting materials were obtained under 10 mA/cm2 current densities after 0.54 F/mol of electricity had been passed and I=50 mA at room temperature. The key advantages of this method are the high yields, simple work up the non-chromatographic purification of products.

In this paper, the carbon paste electrode (CPE) is modified using an ionic liquid (1-Butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate, [BMIM]BF4) and the cis-dioxo-bis[3-methoxy-2,2-dimethylpropanediamine] molybdenum(VI) complex (cis-[Mo(O)2L]). In order to study of the electrochemical behavior of ascorbic acid (AA) and dopamine (DA) at the surface of the prepared CPEs, the differential pulse and cyclic voltammetric methods (DPV and CV) were used. The percent of the [BMIM]BF4 in the matrix of the modified CPE is optimized, and then the effect of the pH of the buffered solution on the electrode response and the resolution between the anodic peaks of AA and DA is studied by CV and DPV. These results reveal that by application of the modified CPE a peak resolution about 325mV is obtained for AA and DA and the linear range for AA and DA in buffered solutions of pH 5.0 is acquired in the range from 5.0×10−7 to 1.0×10−3 M. The respective limits of detection (S/N = 3) were 1×10−7 M and 2×10−7 M for DA and AA, respectively. Surface regeneration and the very easy preparation of the modified CPE together with the very good peak resolution and sub-micromolar detection limits designate the prepared CPE in this work appropriate for simultaneous voltammetric determination of DA and AA.
