In this experiment, a highly effective electrochemical sensor based on a molecularly imprinted polymer has been developed for ultrasensitive detection of dimetridazole. The sensor was made by ...incorporating of dimetridazole as a template molecule during the electropolymerization of poly-arginine on a glassy carbon electrode. The modified electrode GCE/P-Arg@MIP was characterized by voltammetric and microscopic techniques. Differential pulse voltammetry method was used to detect target analyte under the optimum condition. The DPV response to dimetridazole was linear at 0.1 × 10−9 to 10 × 10−6 mol L−1 (R2 = 0.996), with a method detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.1 × 10−9 mol L−1.

A regioselective anti-hydrochlorination of unactivated alkynes is reported. The reaction utilizes in situ generated HCl as the source of both the Cl– and H+ and is catalyzed by palladium(II) ...acetate, with loadings as low as 25 ppm. Removable picolinamide and 8-aminoquinoline bidentate directing groups are used to control the regioselectivity of the chloropalladation step and stabilize the resulting alkenylpalladium(II) intermediate for subsequent protodepalladation. This method provides access to a broad array of substituted alkenyl chlorides in excellent yields and with high regioselectivity. The products from this transformation were successfully derivatized via Stille coupling to a variety of trisubstituted alkene products. Reaction progress kinetic analysis was performed, shedding light on a possible mechanism for this catalytic process.

A time-domain sequence is converted into an equivalent frequency-domain sequence using discrete Fourier transform. The reverse operation converts a frequency-domain sequence into an equivalent ...time-domain sequence using inverse discrete Fourier transform. Based on the discrete Fourier transform. Fast Fourier transform (FFT) is an effective algorithm with few computations. FFT is used in everything from broadband to 3G and Digital TV to radio LAN's. To improve its architecture different efficient algorithms are developed. This paper gives an overview of the work done by a different FFT processor previously. The comparison of different architecture is also discussed.
A highly sensitive electrochemical-based detector was fabricated to selectively sense methyl-parathion (MP). A Glassy carbon electrode (GCE) was functionalized with zinc oxide (ZnO) hollow spheres ...(ZnOHS) and a molecularly imprinted polymer (MIP) to form the developed sensor. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was performed to synthesize a molecularly imprinted polymeric film on the ZnOHS modified GCE (GCE/ZnOHS) by electropolymerization of functional monomer, l-arginine (L-Arg), and template molecule, MP. The differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was utilized to evaluate the efficiency of the electrochemical detection of MP under optimal conditions by the proposed sensor. The developed sensor recorded a good performance for detecting MP in the linear range of 5 × 10−9 to 0.1 × 10−4 mol L−1 (R2=0.985) with a detection limit (S/N = 3) of 0.5 × 10−9 mol L−1 and sensitivity of 571 nA/μmolL −1 cm −2. This electrochemical sensing system effectively detects MP in real samples with satisfactory recoveries of 90.4%, 91.9%, 118%, and 96.3% for fresh green beans, strawberry, tomato, and cabbage, respectively.

We present for the first time biogenic reduction and stabilization of gold and silver ions at room temperature using fruit juice of Punica granatum. The formation, morphology and crystalline structure of the synthesized nanoparticles are determined using UV–Visible, XRD and TEM. An attempt to reveal the partial role of phenolic hydroxyls in the reduction of Au3+ and Ag+ is done through FTIR analysis. The synthesized nanoparticles are used as potential catalysts in the degradation of a cationic phenothiazine dye, an anionic mono azo dye and a cationic fluorescent dye. The calculated values of percentage removal of dyes and the rate constants from pseudo first order kinetic data fit give a comparative study on degradation of organic dyes in presence of prepared gold and silver nanoparticles.
