The polymeric graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) has been one of the interesting earth abundant elements. Though g-C3N4 finds application as a photocatalyst, its photocatalytic behaviour is limited because of low efficiency, mainly due to rapid charge recombination. To overcome this problem, several strategies have been developed including doping of metal/non-metal in the cavity of g-C3N4. Moreover, the CoFe2O4 Read More

Zanthoxylum, commonly known as Timoor, has been used in different traditional systems of medicine and also for several other applications such as chemopreventive agents, tooth care, as spices, condiments, etc. Due to the pungent taste of fruits, seeds, leaves, bark, and therapeutic remedies, especially in Indian system of medicine, Eastern Asian countries and in Central America, it is being substituted for pepper.

The P-heterocyclic field forms a special part of organophosphorus chemistry, and is a special discipline within heterocyclic chemistry. The relevant results accumulated in the group of the author of this minireview in last 5 years are summarized. After surveying the conformational situation of cyclic phosphinates, their Microwave (MW)-assisted direct esterification and the T3P®-promoted esterification are discussed. The next c Read More

This study reports the cross-metathesis of bicyclic β-pinene, acyclic cis-3- methylpent-2-ene terpenes and the natural rubber with functionalized olefins, a route for the functionalization of the carbon-carbon double bond of natural products to obtain aliphatic unsaturated esters. The production of unsaturated esters from β-pinene and cis-3- methylpent-2-ene via cross-metathesis reaction with dimethyl maleate and di Read More

The emerging antifungal resistance represents a major challenge for the treatment of severe fungal infections, highlighting the need to develop novel and efficient antifungal compounds. This study aimed to synthesize new title compounds and screen them for their antifungal activity in order to generate highly accurate structure - activity relationships of 2-((4-chlorophenoxy)methyl)-N-(arylcarbamothioyl)benzamides and their Read More
