This review will outline the recent advances in chemo-, regio-, and stereoselective (cross-) dimerization of terminal alkynes to generate 1,3-enynes using different types of iron and cobalt catalysts with altering oxidation states of the active species. In general, the used ligands have a crucial effect on the stereoselectivity of the reaction; e.g., bidentate phosphine ligands in cobalt catalysts can generate the E-configured head-to-head dimerization product, while tridentate phosphine ligands can generate either the Z-configured head-to-head dimerization product or the branched head-to-tail isomer. Furthermore, the hydroalkynylation of silyl-substituted acetylenes as donors to internal alkynes as acceptors will be discussed using cobalt and nickel catalysts.

The cathodic behavior of Ce3+ ions in LiF-NaF-BaF2, LiF-NaF-NaCl and NaCl-KCl molten salts at 730� C has been studied using different electrochemical techniques. The decomposition potential (Ed) and the cathodic overvoltage were determined by introducing NaCeF4 as electrochemical active species using steady-state potential-current curves recorded under galvanostatic conditions. The values of |Ed| were 1.85 V in LiF-NaF-BaF2, 2.114 V in LiF-NaF-NaCl and 2.538 V in NaCl-KCl, respectively. It was also found that the ohmic drop potential in melt is not dependent on NaCeF4 concentration and it rises as the current intensity increases. The Tafel slopes and other kinetic parameters were calculated on the assumption that the cathodic process consisted of direct discharge of Ce3+, with no solvent-solute interaction. In order to elucidate the mechanisn of cathodic process the cyclic voltammetry technique was finally used. From the evolution of the voltammograms we conclude that the electrochemical reduction of Ce3+ ion is actually a reversible process on the molybdenum electrode and cathodic reduction of Ce3+ takes place in one single step involving three electron exchange. Our study adds to the accumulating data and confirms available results of electrodeposition of metalic cerium from molten salts using NaCeF4 as solute.

A protocol was developed for excising and culturing cotyledon explants from mature achenes of strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.). Cotyledon explants formed callus with multiple shoot buds on agar-solidified Murashige and Skoog media containing several combinations of hormones (1 μm 2,4-D; 10 μm 2,4-D; 1 μm BA + 1 μm 2,4-D; 1 μm BA + 10 μm 2,4-D; 5 μm BA; 5 μm BA + 1 μm 2,4-D; 5 μm BA + 10 μ m 2,4-D; 5 μ m BA + 5 μm NAA; 5 μ m BA + 15 μ m NAA). After three subcultures, only tissues maintained on the medium containing 5 μm BA + 5 μm NAA continued to form shoots. Tissues transferred to other media eventually died (1 μm 2,4-D; 1 μ m BA + 10 μ m 2,4-D; 5 μ m BA; 5 μ m BA + 1 μ m 2,4-D), became unorganized (1 μm BA + 1 μm 2,4-D; 5 μm BA + 10 μm 2,4-D; 5 μm BA + 15 μm NAA), or formed roots (10 μm 2,4-D). Whole plantlets were produced by transferring callus with buds to medium lacking hormones. The rapid regeneration of clonal plantlets from cotyledon explants may be useful for reducing variability in future developmental studies. Chemical names used: N-(phenylmethyl)-1H-purin-6-amine (BA); (2,4-dichlorophenoxy) acetic acid (2,4-D); and 1-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA).

This paper focuses on the valorisation of solid residues obtained from the thermal treatment of sewage sludge. In particular, sewage sludge samples were collected from two waste water treatment plants (WWTPs) with different sludge line basic operations. After drying, sludges were heated up to 700 °C in appropriate ovens under diluted air (gasification) and inert (pyrolysis) atmospheres. The solids obtained, as well as the dried (raw) sludges, were characterised to determine their textural properties and chemical composition, including the speciation of their inorganic fraction. All the materials under study were employed as adsorbents/catalysts in H2S removal experiments at room temperature. It was found that, depending on the particular sludge characteristics, outstanding results can be achieved both in terms of retention capacities and selectivity. Some of the solids outperform commercially available sorbents specially designed for gaseous emissions control. In these adsorbents/catalysts, H2S is selectively oxidised to elemental sulphur most likely due to the presence of inorganic, catalytically active species. The role of the carbon-enriched part on these solids is also remarked.

Generation of hydroxyl radicals, one of the major active species in ozonation of water was directly observed with a spin-trapping/electron spin resonance (ESR) technique using 5,5-dimethyl-1-pyrrolineN-oxide (DMPO) as a spin-trapping reagent. Hydroxyl radical were trapped with DMPO as a stable radical, DMPO-OH. Eighty μM of ozone produced 1.08 X 10-6M of DMPO-OH, indicating that 1.4% of •OH is trapped with DMPO. Generation rate of DMPO-OH was determined by ESR/stopped-flow measurement. Phenol derivatives increased the amount and generation rate of DMPO-OH, indicating that phenol derivatives enhance •OH generation during ozonation of water. Ozonation of 2,3-, 2,5-, 2,6-dichlorophenol gave an ESR spectra of triplet lines whose peak height ratio were 1:2:1. ESR parameters of the triplet lines agreed with those of the corresponding dichloro-psemiquinone radical. Ozonation of 2,4,5- and 2,4,6-trichlorophenol gave the same spectra as those of 2,5- and 2,6-dichlorophenol, respectively, indicating that a chlorine group in p-position is substituted with a hydroxy group during ozonation. Amounts of the radical increased in an ozone-concentration dependent manner and were inhibited by addition of hydroxyl radical scavengers. These results suggest that p-semiquinone radicals are generated from the chlorophenols by hydroxyl radicals during ozonation. The p-semiquinone radicals were at least partly responsible for enhancements of DMPO-OH generation.

Absorption spectra of tetrahydro[3,2-b]indolo-carbazoles (THICZs) with various molecular size and alkyl tails have been recorded in various solvents in the range between 200 to 600 nm. The photo physical behaviour of dissolved THICZs depends on the nature of its environment. The solvatochromic behaviours of THICZs and solvent solute interactions can be analysed by means of linear solvation energy relationships concept proposed by Kamlet and Taft. Compound 4 show excellent properties for sensing small molecules. The electrochemical behaviour of some THICZs was investigated at carbon paste electrode where two electrode reactions were involved, irreversible oxidation-one electron transfer and quasi-reversible redox reactions forming phenolic followed by quinolone moiety electro active species. The DFT-calculated molecular orbital energies (B3LYP/6-31G) and HOMO-LUMO gaps for some presented indolocarbazoles have been performed.
