Carbon-nanotube/TiO2 materials synthesized by a one-pot oxidation/hydrothermal route for the photocatalytic production of hydrogen from biomass derivatives

TL;DR: In this article, a hybrid photocatalysts containing different amounts of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and TiO2 were synthesized by a one-pot oxidation/hydrothermal route and used for hydrogen production from aqueous solutions of methanol and glycerol under UV-LED irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanistic density functional theory study of the Claisen Rearrangement Diels-Alder Cycloaddition domino sequence for the synthesis of the caged garcinia xanthone

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the mechanism of the tandem Claisen-Rearrangement-Diels-Alder-Cycloaddition reactions of the caged garcinia xanthone derivatives at the B3LYP/6-31G+(d) level of theory.
Journal ArticleDOI

Theoretical investigations on the mechanistic pathway of the thermal rearrangement of substituted N-acyl-2,2-dimethylaziridines

TL;DR: The application of reactivity parameters derived from density functional theory in a local sense, in particular the softness and Fukui function, to interpret and predict the mechanisms of the thermal decomposition of the N-acyl-2,2-dimethylaziridines 1, has been discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

From imidates to vinyl-1,2,4-triazoles: Synthesis, mechanistic aspects and first issues of their reactivity

TL;DR: In this article, first lines of Pd-catalyzed arylation of the vinyl fragment towards 5-styryl-1,2,4-triazoles were described.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural study, vibrational and optical properties, Hirshfeld surface analysis and DFT investigation of a novel organic cation hexachloridostannate(IV), (C5H8N3)2[SnCl6]

TL;DR: In this paper, a novel compound bis(2,6-diaminopyridinium) hexachloridostannate(IV), formulated as (C5H8N3)2[SnCl6], has been synthesized and characterized by powder and single crystal X-ray diffraction (XRD), IR and UV-Vis spectroscopies, and Hirshfeld surface analysis.
