Hydrothermal Synthesis of Zinc Doped Nickel Ferrites: Evaluation of Structural, Magnetic and Dielectric Properties

TL;DR: In this article, a series of zinc doped nickel ferrites (ZnxNi1−xFe2O4, x = 0.1, 0.2, 0 3, 0 4 and 0.5) were prepared by hydrothermal method (at 220 °C, 16 h).

Thioesters as Acyl Donors in Biocatalytic Friedel-Crafts-type Acylation Catalyzed by Acyltransferase from Pseudomonas Protegens.

TL;DR: It is shown that the C‐acyltransferase from Pseudomonas protegens is also able to catalyze C−S bond cleavage prior to C−C bond formation, thus aliphatic and aromatic thioesters can be used as acyl donors.

Organic Synthesis “On Water”

TL;DR: The currently burgeoning field of organic synthesis in aqueous media encompasses a large family of reactions, and water is still not commonly used as a sole solvent for organic synthesis, at least in part because most organic compounds do not dissolve in water to a significant extent.
