Novel guanidinato complexes of hafnium [Hf{eta2-(iPrN)2CNR2}2(NR2)2] (R2 = Et2, 1; Et, Me, 2; Me2, 3), synthesized by insertion reactions of N,N'-diisopropylcarbodiimide into the M-N bonds of homologous hafnium amide complexes 1-3 and {[mu2-NC(NMe2)2][NC(NMe2)2]2HfCl}2 (4) using a salt metathesis reaction, are reported. Single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis revealed that compounds 1-3 were monomers, while compound 4 was found to be a dimer. The observed fluxional behavior of compounds 1-3 was studied in detail using variable-temperature and two-dimensional NMR techniques. The thermal characteristics of compounds 1-3 seem promising for HfO2 thin films by vapor deposition techniques. Metal-organic chemical vapor deposition experiments with compound 2 as the precursor resulted in smooth, uniform, and stoichiometric HfO2 thin films at relatively low deposition temperatures. The basic properties of HfO2 thin films were characterized in some detail.

Ethanolamine-mediated microstructural transitions within terpenoid- and fatty acid-based deep eutectic solvents.

Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) have emerged as solubilizing media of intense interest due partly to their easily tailorable physicochemical properties. Extensive H-bonding between the constituents in a two-constituent system is the major driving force for the formation of the DES. Addition of ethanolamine (MEA), a compound having H-bonding capabilities, to the DESs composed of a terpene [menthol (Men) or thymol (Thy)] and a fatty acid [-decanoic acid (DA)] results in an unprecedented increase in dynamic viscosity due to the extensive rearrangement in the H-bonding network and other interactions within the system, while the liquid mixture still behaves as a Newtonian fluid.

ConspectusThe manipulation of strained rings is a powerful strategy for accessing the valuable chemical frameworks present in natural products and active pharmaceutical ingredients. Aziridines, the smallest N-containing heterocycles, have long served as building blocks for constructing more complex amine-containing scaffolds. Traditionally, the reactivity of typical aziridines has been focused on ring-opening by nucleophiles or the formation of 1,3-dipoles.

Three seco-norabietane diterpenoids, salvicsites A-C (-), along with two known compounds, were isolated from the roots and rhizomes of Diels f. Stib. Salvicsite A () represents an unprecedented structural combination, featuring an eight-membered α-methyl-α,β-unsaturated lactone ring and a five-membered α,β-unsaturated lactone ring, based on a 6/6/5/8 ring system.

This study evaluates the efficacy of garbage enzyme (GE) in bioremediation to reduce pollutants in sewage drains that discharge into the natural streams and rivers. Garbage enzyme is prepared with help of brown sugar, fruit, vegetable wastes, and water in the proportion 1:3:10 (by weight), which is then applied to the samples collected from various drainage sites in Jaunpur district, Uttar Pradesh, India. Different concentrations of GE (ranging from 0% to 20%) are mixed with sewage to assess pollution reduction.

Inorganic anions such as chloride (Cl), nitrate (), sulfate (), carbonate (), bicarbonate (), dihydrogen phosphate (), fluoride (F) are ubiquitous in water matrices, play a significant role in the degradation of organic pollutants by Fenton process. In the present study, the performance of Fenton process in the presence of these anions was studied using phenol as a model compound along with the underlying mechanism and their tolerance limit. The presence of these anions affects the rate constant of the Fenton process and decreases in the following order, ---Cl > > > > F.
