A separation-preconcentration procedure was developed for the determination of trace amounts of aluminium in water samples and dialysis concentrates by UV-vis Spectrophotometry after coprecipitation using 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) as a chelating agent and Co(II) as a carrier element. This procedure is based on filtration of the solution containing precipitate on a cellulose nitrate membrane filter following aluminium(III) coprecipitation with Co/8-HQ and then the precipitates together with membrane filter were dissolved in concentrated nitric acid. The metal contents of the final solution were determined by UV-vis Spectrophotometry with Erio Chrome Cyanine-R standard method. Several parameters including pH of sample solution, amount of carrier element and reagent, standing time, sample volume for precipitation and the effects of diverse ions were examined. The enrichment factor was calculated as 50 and the detection limits, corresponding to three times the standard deviation of the blank (N: 10), was found to be 0.2 microg L(-1). The accuracy of the method was tested with standard reference material (CRM-TMDW-500) and spiked addition. Determination of aluminium(III) was carried out in sea water, river water, tap water and haemodialysis fluids samples. The recoveries were >95%. The relative standard deviations of determination were less than 6%.

Precursor design is the crucial step in tailoring the deposition profile towards a multitude of functional materials. Most commercially available aluminium oxide precursors require high processing temperatures (>500 °C). Herein, we report the tuning of the decomposition profile (200-350 °C) of a range of octahedrally coordinated tris(β-ketoiminate) aluminium complexes of the type [Al(MeCN(R)CHC=OMe) ], by varying the R substituents in the ligands.

Article Synopsis
  • The study explores the reactions of aluminium reagents with furans, dihydrofurans, and dihydropyrans, leading to ring-expanded products through the insertion of aluminium into C-O bonds.
  • The reaction kinetics are analyzed, revealing first-order characteristics and a stepwise mechanism that starts with a cycloaddition and involves the rearrangement of bicyclic intermediates.
  • The inclusion of a palladium catalyst expands the substrate range and improves selectivity, facilitating reactions where the adjacent C-O bond to sp C-H bonds breaks, and allows further manipulation of products via C-H alumination.

A well designed, new pyrene based small molecule (L) was synthesized from 1:1 condensation reaction of 1-aminopyrene and 6-(1,3-benzodioxal-5-yl)-2-pyridine carboxaldehyde which was characterized by absorption, emission spectrometry, FTIR, NMR and mass studies. Interestingly the UV-vis and fluorescence spectroscopic studies revealed that the ligand (L) works as a dual turn-on luminescent chemosensor for chromium(III) (Cr) and aluminium(III) (Al) in aqueous environment which were further supported by DFT and TDDFT studies. L shows a significant colour change from pale yellow to reddish yellow with a detection limit of ~10 M in the presence of Cr and Al whereas there were no noteworthy changes in the presence of other monovalent and divalent metal ions.

Aluminium(iii) dialkyl 2,6-bisimino-4R-dihydropyridinates(-1): selective synthesis, structure and controlled dimerization.

Dalton Trans

June 2019

Instituto de Investigaciones Químicas, CSIC-Universidad de Sevilla, c/Américo Vespucio, 49, 41092, Sevilla, Spain.

A family of stable and otherwise selectively unachievable 2,6-bisimino-4-R-1,4-dihydropyridinate aluminium (III) dialkyl complexes [AlR'2(4-R-iPrBIPH)] (R = Bn, Allyl; R' = Me, Et, iBu) have been synthesized, taking advantage of a method for the preparation of the corresponding 4-R-1,4-dihydropiridine precursors developed in our group. All the dihydropyrdinate(-1) dialkyl aluminium complexes have been fully characterized by 1H- 13C-NMR, elemental analysis and in the case 2'a, also by X-ray diffraction studies. Upon heating in toluene solution at 110 °C, the dimethyl derivatives 2a and 2'a dimerize selectively through a double cycloaddition.

Thermo-kinetics and product analysis of the catalytic pyrolysis of Pongamia residual cake.

J Environ Manage

July 2019

Department of Environmental Engineering, Faculty of Engineering, Chulalongkorn University, Bangkok, 10330, Thailand. Electronic address:

Catalytic fast pyrolysis of Pongamia residual cake (PRC) and the kinetics of this were evaluated using thermogravimetry and pyrolysis-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry analyses. The influence of the heating rate on the devolatilization process was studied to obtain corresponding kinetic information. Kissinger-Akahira-Sunose (KAS) and Flynn-Wall-Ozawa (FWO) model-free isoconversion methods were used to predict the kinetic parameters.
