Allylation of cellulose microfibers for hydrosilylation with various hydrosilanes and hydrosiloxanes, and their application in corn-starch-mimosa tannin (CSMT) adhesive to improve particleboard properties.

Recently, Cellulose microfibers (CMF) have garnered significant attention due to their renewability, biodegradability, and unique properties such as high aspect ratio, low density, high strength, stiffness, and distinctive optical properties. These characteristics have been highlighted in publications worldwide. However, the structure of CMF is difficult to access with solvents, limiting its dissolution in common organic solvents.

Synthesis, characterization, and inhibition effects of a novel eugenol derivative bearing pyrrole functionalities on the corrosion of mild steel in a HCl acid solution.

Semi-synthetic modifications of natural products have yielded numerous anti-cancer drugs, antimicrobials, and corrosion inhibitors. In this study, eugenol, a natural product, was synthetically modified to generate a novel heterocyclic compound: pyrrole, which forms crystals. The latter is the outcome of the condensation reaction between eugenol hydrazide and 2,5-hexanedione, conducted under reflux ethanol conditions, without a catalyst, achieving a 96% yield.

1-Methyl-2-methyl-sulfanyl-6-nitro-1H-benzimidazole.

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C9H9N3O2S, is built up from fused five- and six-membered rings connected to methyl-sulfanyl and nitro groups, respectively. The mean plane through the fused ring system is inclined slightly relative to the plane passing through the nitro group [dihedral angle = 3.6 (2)°].
