One of the major challenges in chemistry confronted by the chemists is the replacement of conventional homogeneous catalysts by heterogeneous catalysts for the development of green, sustainable and economical chemical processes. Recently, carbón-based nanocomposites have attracted the attention of scientists due to their unique physical and chemical properties such as large surface area and pore volume, chemical in Read More

The heterocyclic molecules are medicinally important and are applied in different other fields. The environmentally benign synthetic method for the synthesis of this important group of compounds is always explored. Bimetallic nanoparticles are getting attention as heterogeneous catalysts for their synthesis. The bimetallic nanoparticles have been usually synthesized by chemical or physical methods or both in combination. Che Read More

Mesoporous silica nanomaterials provide an extraordinary advantage for making new and superior heterogeneous catalysts because of their surface silanol groups. The functionalized mesoporous SBA-15, such as acidic, basic, BrÖnsted, lewis acid, and chiral catalysts, are used for a wide range of organic syntheses. The importance of the chiral ligands, which were immobilized on the SBA-15, was mentioned in this review t Read More

The heterocycle ring tetrazole is an important moiety relevant to medicinal chemistry since it is present in some drugs with clinical importance. Its primary biological activity is being a bioisosteric analogue of the carboxylic acid and cis-amide groups. Its metabolic stability and other physicochemical properties make it an attractive structure for designing and synthesizing new pharmaceuticals. The biological activity of Read More

Biomass has attracted much attention because of its clean and renewable characteristics. The conversion of biomass into various fine chemicals and high value-added fuels is one of the important ways to solve the energy shortage and environmental pollution. 2,5-furan dicarboxylic acid (FDCA), a kind of important and promising new bio-based monomer, has attracted the attention of many researchers due to its wide ap Read More

As a kind of renewable nanomaterial, nanocellulose displays excellent performances and exhibits wide application potentials. In general, nanocellulose has strong hydrophilicity due to the presence of abundant hydroxyl groups or the hydrophilic functional groups introduced during the preparation process. Although these hydrophilic groups benefit the nanocellulose with great application potential that is used in aqueous Read More
