Confined Polar Mixtures within Cylindrical Nanocavities
Using molecular dynamics experiments, we have extended our previous analysis of equimolar mixtures of water and acetonitrile confined between silica walls [J. Phys. Chem. B... -
Pore Shape Affects Spontaneous Charge Redistribution in Small Pores
A complete understanding of charge redistribution (spontaneous movement of charge once the system has been placed on open-circuit) in porous materials is desirable because... -
Efficient Charge Transport through a Metal Oxide Semiconductor in the Nanocom...
A nanocomposite film of tungsten trioxide (WO3) and [Ru(bpy)3]2+ (bpy = 2,2‘-bipyridine) (denoted as Ru−WO3) was prepared from an aqueous colloidal triad solution containing... -
Photopatternable Silicon Elastomers with Enhanced Mechanical Properties for H...
Soft lithography has been widely used in stamping and printing processes for microfabrication as a low cost alternative to photolithography. However, conventional... -
Porous Carbon Supports Prepared by Ultrasonic Spray Pyrolysis for Direct Meth...
Carbon powders composed of porous micrometer-sized spheres were synthesized from simple organic salt precursors using ultrasonic spray pyrolysis (USP). These materials were... -
Cycloadditions of Aromatic Azomethine Imines with 1,1-Cyclopropane Diesters
The cycloaddition of aromatic azomethine imines to 1,1-cyclopropane diesters was achieved using Ni(ClO4)2 as catalyst. The methodology gives access to unique tricyclic... -
Alkylation of Magnesium Sulfinates: A Direct Transformation of Functionalize...
Sulfinate alkylation is one of the conventional methods for sulfone synthesis. The alkylation of magnesium sulfinates, which are easily accessible via reactions of... -
