  • Recent Advances in Ru Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenation and Its Future Perspectives Nidhi Tyagi, Gongutri Borah, Pitambar Patel and Danaboyina Ramaiah
    Chapter Recent Advances in Ru Catalyzed Transfer Hydrogenation and Its Future Perspectives Nidhi Tyagi, Gongutri Borah, Pitambar Patel and Danaboyina Ramaiah Abstract Over the past few decades, Ru catalyzed transfer hydrogenation (TH) and asymmetric transfer hydrogenation (ATH) reactions of unsaturated hydrocarbons, imine, nitro and carbonyl compounds have emerged as economic and powerful tools in organic synthesis. These reactions are most preferred processes having applications in the synthesis of fine chemicals to pharmaceuticals due to safe han- dling as these do not require hazardous pressurized H2 gas. The catalytic activity and selectivity of Ru complexes were investigated with a variety of ligands based on pincer NHC, cyclophane, half-sandwich, organophosphine etc. These ligands coor- dinate to Ru center in a proper orientation with a labile group replaced by H-source (like methanol, isopropanol, formic acid, dioxane, THF), which facilitate the β- hydrogen transfer to generate metal hydride species (Ru-H) and produce desired reduced product. This chapter describes the recent advances in TH and ATH reac- tions with homogeneous and heterogeneous Ru catalysts having different ligand environments and mechanistic details leading to their sustainable industrial applications. Keywords: ruthenium, transfer hydrogenation/asymmetric transfer hydrogenation, homogeneous, heterogeneous catalysts, mechanistic studies 1. Introduction Ruthenium was first discovered in 1844 by Karl Ernst Claus and he had named it as Ruthenia (in Latin Russia) in the honor of his motherland. In fact, in 1827, Gottfried Osann had found three new metals from the Ural Mountains and one of these metals was named as Ruthenium. However, its isolation could not be reproduced and hence his claims were withdrawn on these metals.

  • Refractory Hard Metals with a Closer Look at Tungsten
    Refractory Hard Metals With a closer look at Tungsten What are Refractory Hard Metals ? Refractory metals are a class of metals that are extraordinarily resistant to heat and wear. The expression is mostly used in the context of materials science, metallurgy and engineering. The definition of which elements belong to this group differs. The most common definition includes five elements: niobium, molybdenum, tantalum, tungsten, and rhenium). They all share some properties, including a melting point above 2000 °C and high hardness at room temperature. They are chemically inert and have a relatively high density. Their high melting points make powder metallurgy the method of choice for fabricating components from these metals. Some of their applications include tools to work metals at high temperatures, wire filaments, casting molds, and chemical reaction vessels in corrosive environments. Partly due to the high melting point, refractory metals are stable against creep deformation to very high temperatures. The wider definition, including all elements with a melting point above 3,362 F(1,850 °C), includes a varying number of nine additional elements: titanium, vanadium, chromium, zirconium, hafnium, ruthenium, rhodium, osmium and iridium. Carbides A carbide is a compound composed of carbon and a less electronegative element. . Examples include calcium carbide (CaC2), silicon carbide (SiC), tungsten carbide (WC) (often called simply carbide when referring to machine tooling Nitrides a nitride is a compound of nitrogen where nitrogen has a formal oxidation state of −3. Nitrides are a large class of compounds with a wide range of properties and applications.[ Like carbides, nitrides are often refractory materials owing to their high lattice energy which reflects the strong attraction of "N3−" for the metal cation.

    Li Lithium ( LI6.94) 3 Li Characters Lithium is a soft, silver-white metal with symbol Li and atomic number 3. It belongs to the alkali metal group of chemical elements. Under standard conditions it is the lightest metal and the least dense solid element. Like all alkali metals, lithium is highly reactive and flammable. For this reason, it is typically stored in mineral oil. When cut open, lithium exhibits a metallic luster, but contact with moist air corrodes the surface quickly to a dull silvery gray, then black tarnish. Because of its high reactivity, lithium never occurs freely in nature, and instead, only appears in compounds, which are usually ionic. Lithium occurs in a number of pegmatitic minerals, but due to its solubility as an ion is present in ocean water and is commonly obtained from brines and clays. On a commercial scale, lithium is isolated electrolytically from a mixture of lithium chloride and potassium chloride. 2 ( Aladdin® ) Inorganic compounds www.aladdin-e.com period 2 • Lithium Item货号 No. 品名 Product Name 规格 Specification CASCAS 包装Pkg.

  • The Origins of the Russian Chernozem Soil (Black Earth): Franz Joseph Ruprecht’S ‘Geo-Botanical Researches Into the Chernozem’ of 18661

The Origins of the Russian Chernozem Soil (Black Earth): Franz Joseph Ruprecht’s ‘Geo-Botanical Researches into the Chernozem’ of 18661 ANASTASIA A. FEDOTOVA St Petersburg branch of the Institute for the History of Science and Technology Russian Academy of Sciences St Petersburg Email: [email protected] ABSTRACT This article analyses the contribution of the Austrian-born Russian scientist, Franz Joseph Ruprecht (1814–70) to the development of geobotany in general and to the controversial issue of the origins of the very fertile chernozem (Black Earth) of the steppe region of the Russian Empire. On the basis of careful field work and microscopic analysis of samples of chernozem, Ruprecht argued, in an important article published in St Petersburg in 1866, that the organic matter in the soil was decomposed steppe grasses. Thus, the chernozem was of steppe origins, not forest or peat as had been assumed by most scientists prior to his researches. Ruprecht’s work laid the basis for the later, and better known, work on the chernozem by pioneering soil scientist Vasilii Dokuchaev (1846–1903). The article places Ruprecht’s researches in the context of contemporary social, economic, and political as well as scientific developments.
