In this study, five Schiff base compounds were prepared by the reaction between one mole of benzil with one mole of the below five types of amines: (aniline, 1 – naphthalamine, 4-nitroaniline, 4-chloroaniline, and 4-aminobenzoic acid). Such products were transferred into chalcone by reacting them with acetone. The resulted compounds were reacted with urea to prepare five derivatives of imine – based 5,6 – dihydropyrimidin – 2(1H) – one. Such resulted compounds were traced via spectrometry [MASS, (1H, 13C NMR) and FTIR]. The results conformed with the expected compounds. The biologica
Read MorePresence of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and their derivatives in natural water has become a common phenomenon in the modern day ecosystems. The amount of toxicity possessed by these harmful compounds have led researchers to do more profound research related works with respect to their presence as well as any possible degradation. This study primarily deals with the possible means of degrading a common PAH, viz., fluoranthene in a storm water drainage basin in the outskirts of the city of Guwahati, Assam, India and also gives light on the differences in the pattern of the degradatio
Read MoreSilicate-based sorbents open up an exciting field of research due to their facile synthesis, unique properties and multiple applications. Synthesis of these materials can be attained by methods such as sol-gel process, self-assembly method, emulsification, hybrid pyrolysis carbonization, hydrothermal carbonization and so on. Mesoporous and nanomaterials based sorbents are obtained by appropriate synthetic routes. The characteristic properties of these materials include pore size in nano range, high porosity, low density, ultra-low thermal conductivity, tunable polarity, transparency and eco-fr
Read MoreHerbal teas made from plants other than Camellia sinensis, like ginger (Zingiber officinale) and butterfly pea (Clitoria ternatea), offer notable health benefits, including anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, antibacterial, and immunomodulatory properties. This study employed green synthesis methods to produce silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) using extracts from ginger and butterfly pea as reducing and capping agents. The characterization of the AgNPs through UV-Vis spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirmed their successful synthesis. Antimicro
Read MoreCritical environmental issues related to waste disposal highlight the need to convert waste into valuable products. Researchers have been focused on converting biomass into Activated Carbon (AC) for beneficial applications. This study employed a wet impregnation technique on Rubber Seed Shell (RSS) biomass, using KOH as a chemical activator and surface-functionalizing it with, Ionic Liquid (IL) Ethanol Ammonium Butyrate [EtOHA][BA]. The biomass was activated at 800°C for 3 hours under a constant N2 flow of 0.1 L/min. The Surface Area and Porosity (SAP) results indicated that higher IL concent
