The array of transition-metal-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions can easily be considered
nowadays cornerstones in the field of organic synthesis. 1, 2 Among them, the palladium …

Although fire is now rarely used in synthetic chemistry, it was not until Robert Bunsen
invented the burner in 1855 that the energy from this heat source could be applied to a …

In the electromagnetic spectrum, the microwave radiation region is located between infrared
radiation and radio waves. Microwaves have wavelengths of 1 mm±1 m, corresponding to …

Microwave-assisted synthesis of zirconium (Zr) based metal organic frameworks (MOFs)
were performed and the yield and porous property of UiO-67 was optimized by varying the …

Environmentally friendlier preparations of chemical compounds and organic or inorganic
materials are generally accompanied by the concept of saving resources by optimizing …

A literature survey of carbohydrate sonochemistry is presented. The basic physical
principles are discussed qualitatively before the main applications are reviewed. Along with …

The use of ionic liquids as aids for microwave heating of nonpolar solvents has been
investigated. We show that hexane and toluene together with solvents such as THF and …

Novel (E)-1-aryl-3-(3-aryl-1-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-4-yl) prop-2-en-1-ones 5/6 (pyrazolic
chalcones) were synthesized from a Claisen–Schmidt reaction of 3-aryl-1-phenylpyrazol-4 …
