Hydrothermal effect on synthesis, characterization and catalytic properties of calcium methoxide for biodiesel production from crude Jatropha curcas

TL;DR: In this article, an effective catalyst for transesterification of high fatty acid content of crude Jatropha curcas oil (JCO) was appraised, and the correlation between synthesis time, surface area and morphology of catalysts and the biodiesel yield was studied.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of 2-acylated and sulfonated 4-hydroxycoumarins: In vitro urease inhibition and molecular docking studies.

TL;DR: Sixteen 4-hydroxycoumarin derivatives were synthesized, characterized through EI-MS and (1)H NMR and screened for urease inhibitory potential and structure activity relationship was established on the basis of molecular docking studies, which helped to predict the binding interactions of the most active compounds.
Journal ArticleDOI

Establishment of an efficient callus induction and plant regeneration system in Pakistani wheat (Triticum aestivum) cultivars

TL;DR: Presently optimized regeneration method holds promise for facilitating the deployment of agronomical important trait through genetic transformation for the improvement of this important food crop.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sub- and supercritical esterification of palm fatty acid distillate with carbohydrate-derived solid acid catalyst.

TL;DR: In this paper, the esterification of palm fatty acid distillate (PFAD) in supercritical methanol was investigated by using carbohydrate-derived solid acid catalyst The catalysts were prepared by sulfonation of incomplete carbonized glucose and starch.
