Synthesis and Characterization of Aminophenyl (p-hydroxyphenyl)Tellurium(IV) Dichlorides
Abstract: The synthesis and characterization of a number of aminophenyl(p-hydroxyphenyl)tellurium(IV) dichlorides with the general formula RR´TeCl₂—where R stands for the p-hydroxyphenyl group and R´ denotes substituted amino aromatic moieties like aniline, N-methylaniline, and N,N-dimethylaniline—are reported in this study. Because of their distinctive structural characteristics, adaptable bonding behavior, and prospective uses in organic synthesis, catalysis, and medicinal chemistry, organotellurium compounds have garnered a lot of interest. The coordination behavior and electrical characteristics …

Fundamentals and Recent Advances in Microreactor Catalysis and Flow Chemistry
Abstract: The processing technology of chemical reactions has changed quite a bit over the last few decades. For a long time, chemists relied on batch reactors having large containers where all the starting materials are mixed, and the reaction happens in one go. While this approach works, it has several drawbacks: poor heat control, uneven mixing, safety risks, and a lot of waste. Microreactors and flow chemistry offer a much better …

Modern Trends in Tungsten(VI) Analysis: From Smart Organic Reagents to High-Sensitivity Spectrophotometry
Abstract: The present review focuses on the spectrophotometric determination of tungsten(VI) using a wide range of organic reagents and their derivatives. Organic ligands have gained considerable importance in analytical chemistry due to their strong ability to form stable and highly colored complexes with tungsten(VI), which enhances the sensitivity and selectivity of spectrophotometric analysis. Various chromogenic reagents reported in the literature for tungsten(VI) determination have been critically examined and compared on the …

Heteroatom modified carbon dots (N, P, K): synthesis, surface functionalization, and prospects for soil‑fertility enhancement
Abstract: Heteroatom‑functionalized carbon dots (H‑CDs) have emerged as a class of zero‑dimensional carbon nanomaterials offering tunable optical, electronic, and catalytic properties through controlled nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium doping. This review highlights the chemistry and chemical‑technology dimensions of N‑, P‑, and K‑doped carbon dots (N‑CDs, P‑CDs, K‑CDs), focusing on their synthesis strategies, surface functionalization, and structure–property relationships. Conventional routes such as microwave‑assisted pyrolysis, hydrothermal carbonization, and one‑pot solvothermal methods are discussed, with …

The Effect of Temperature on Possible Microorganisms Isolated and Identified in Freshwater and Saltwater Media from Mixed Crude Oil
Abstract: The investigation of the effect of temperature on the characteristics and properties of microorganisms isolated and identified in freshwater and saltwater media mixed with crude oil demonstrates the potential impact of temperature variation under different bioreactor conditions. However, temperature was identified as an inhibitor of microbial growth, resulting in a decrease in the population of individual organisms sampled during the investigation. This trend was observed in both freshwater and saltwater …

Acoustical and Thermodynamical Studies of L- Glycine in Buffer Solution of Different pH at 298.15 K
Abstract: The volumetric, viscometric, and acoustical studies are used to investigate the exchange of L-Glycine in a buffer solvent system of different pH at 298.15K within a concentration range of 0.02 to 0.10 molal. L-glycine, being the simplest amino acid, serves as an important model compound for understanding molecular exchanges in biological systems. The effect of pH on the physicochemical properties of amino acid solutions is of considerable significance, as it …

AI-Assisted Kinetic Modeling of PLA Hydrolysis Under Subcritical Water Conditions for Sustainable Polymer Recycling
Abstract: The accumulation of poly (lactic acid) (PLA) in terrestrial and marine ecosystems has intensified the demand for closed-loop, green recycling technologies. Subcritical water (SCW) hydrolysis offers a promising, catalyst-free pathway for the rapid depolymerization of PLA into its constituent monomer, lactic acid. However, the complex, highly non-linear kinetics governing macro-molecular degradation under variable hydrothermal conditions limit real-time process optimization and industrial scalability. This study develops a novel artificial intelligence (AI)-assisted …
