A facile and efficient method for the diastereo/regioselective synthesis of highly functionalized spiro-oxetane oxindoles has been described. The 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU)-catalyzed reaction proceeds via ...

Demand for natural fibers as an alternative to synthetic fibers is on the rise. Constraints of current fiber extraction units are limited to single raw material and has low energy efficiency. Hence, this study was taken ...

The emergence of multidrug-resistant (MDR) superbugs underlines the urgent need for innovative treatment options to tackle resistant bacterial infections. The clinical efficacy of natural products directed our efforts ...

Dyes have played a pivotal role in the advancement of modern dye-sensitized solar cells (DSCs), as they not only facilitate light harvesting, but also serve as blocking layers to impede recombination. In this study, we ...

Stable drug-type tablets and capsules are painful to drink or chew for many pediatric and geriatric patients. Accurate dosing is also an issue for liquid orals (syrup, suspension, emulsion, and so on). Several fast-dissolving ...

Considering the importance of tungsten oxide (WO3) in fabricating acetone sensors for the non-invasive diagnosis of diabetes, it has become pertinent to understand the critical reasons behind the diverse and interesting ...

UV filter agents are essential ingredients in cosmetics and fabrics for rendering the property of protection from harmful UV radiation. The focus of this research was on the development of biocompatible hybrid UV/IR filter ...

Cellulase are important class of enzymes that has potential applications in textile, biofuel, food and feed industry. Fungi such as Aspergillus, Trichoderma are reliable sources of cellulase production. Optimisation of ...

We have realized a Pd-catalyzed ring-opening of diazabicyclic olefins with 4-halo-1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. This reaction resulted in the formation of 3(2H)-furanone-appended hydrazino cyclopentenes. The reaction proceeds ...
