The reaction network of indole hydrodenitrogenation (HDN) was investigated over gamma-Al2O3 supported NiMo sulfide catalysts in an effort to acquire a fundamental understanding of the different reaction pathways in the mechanism. Experiments were performed primarily at 1000 psig, using a wide range of temperatures and feed concentrations. The effect of H2S on different reaction Steps of the network was also investigated. Two major pathways were proposed to account for the formation of ethylcyclohexane (ECH) and ethylbenzene (EB) which are the two main HDN products from indole. One route occurs from the hydrogenolysis of indoline to o-ethylaniline (OEA) and the other from the hydrogenation of indoline to octahydro-indole. Also included in the proposed mechanism is a secondary route from o-ethylcyclohexylamine (OECHA) to ethylcyclohexene (ECHE), that occurs through a nucleophilic substitution reaction. The product distribution was a strong function of temperature and H2S concentration. H2S enhanced the hydrogenolysis reactions but inhibited the hydrogenation reactions.

Modified Hantzsch reaction in three- and four-component system in the presence of new chiral organic catalysts was investigated and the advantages of this reaction in three- component system compared to four-component one were demonstrated, the influence of catalysts on the dynamics and stereochemistry of the reaction was elucidated. The enantiomeric excess of the main reaction product was evaluated with HPLC, its structure was proved by X-ray diffraction analysis.
Synthesis of ferrocenyl quinolines
Zora, Metin (Elsevier BV, 2008-06-01)
A convenient one-pot synthesis of ferrocenyl-substituted quinolines via a molecular iodine-catalyzed reaction of ferrocenylimines with enolizable aldehydes is reported. First, nucleophilic addition of the in situ generated enol to ferrocenylimine produces beta-anilinopropionaldehyde, which then undergoes intramolecular Friedel-Crafts reaction to give dihydroquinoline derivative. Finally, subsequent dehydration and aerobic oxidation affords ferrocenyl quinolines.
Reaction kinetics of calcium chloride - ammonia reactive system and theoretical simulation of heat and mass transfer in porous slab pellets
Karakaş Helvacı, Zeynep; Uludağ, Yusuf; Karakaş, Gürkan; Department of Chemical Engineering (2023-1-24)
The reactive systems between ammoniated CaCl2 and NH3 were investigated in terms of heat and mass transport phenomena coupled with reaction kinetics. The reversible reaction rate based on the Langmuir-Hinshelwood model was suggested to express the net reaction rate, including both the adsorption and desorption terms. Experiments at three temperatures were conducted to evaluate the kinetic parameters, pre-exponential factors, and activation energies. The parameters were evaluated by Non-Linear Regression (NL...
Functionalization of oxabenzonorbornadiene: Manganese(III)-mediated oxidative addition of dimedone
ÇALIŞKAN, Raşit; Sari, Ozlem; Balcı, Metin (Wiley, 2017-09-01)
3-Chloro-1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-1,4-epoxynaphthalen-2-yl)-3-hydroxy-5,5-dimethylcy-clohex- 2-en-1-one, synthesized by the reaction of oxabenzonorbornadiene with Mn(OAc)(3) and dimedone in the presence of HCl in acetic acid, was submitted to ring-opening reactions with BBr3 and H2SO4. Reaction with BBr3 yielded 2 products, a 5-membered ring and an 8-membered ring, with the former being the major product. However, the H2SO4-supported reaction exclusively formed an 8-membered ring. The mechanism of formation of th...
Reactive extrusion of poly(ethylene terephthalate)-(ethylene/methyl acrylate/glycidyl methacrylate)-organoclay nanocomposites
Alyamac, Elif; Yılmazer, Ülkü (Wiley, 2007-04-01)
This study was conducted to investigate the effects of component concentrations and addition order of the components on the final properties of ternary nanocomposites composed of poly(ethylene terephthalate), organoclay, and an ethylene-methyl acrylate-glycidyl methacrylate (E-MA-GMA) terpolymer acting as an impact modifier for PET. In this context, first, the optimum amount of the impact modifier was determined by melt compounding binary PET-terpolymer blends in a corotating twin-screw extruder. The amount...
