Studies on the Radziszewski Reaction—Synthesis and Characterization of New Imidazole Derivatives
No full textTwo new long-chain N-alkyl imidazole derivatives, 2-(1-octadecyl-imidazol-2-yl)pyridine and 2-(furan-2-yl)-1-(octadecane-1-yl)-1H-imidazole, were synthesized via the Radziszewski reaction followed by N-alkylation. This is the first report of furan-imidazole obtained by this route using furfuraldehyde as a renewable biomass-derived precursor. FTIR, 1D/2D solution NMR, and HRMS confirmed the structural elucidation, while XRD and solid-state 13C CPMAS NMR corroborated the crystal structures of the precursors. Notably, previously misassigned 1H and 13C chemical shifts reported in the literature for pyridine and furan-imidazole precursors were corrected. Furthermore, 13C CPMAS NMR spectra of those precursors are reported here for the first time. These findings expand the scope of the Radziszewski reaction and provide new insights into the structural characterization of imidazole-based systems

Synthesis of magnetic polymeric ionic liquid nanocomposites by the Radziszewski reaction
No full textIn the present article a new approach for the synthesis of magnetic polymeric ionic liquid nanocomposites based on the Radziszewski reaction is presented. The Radziszewski reaction is a simple and successful procedure to obtain imidazolium-containing polymers under mild conditions and consists of the reaction between diamine compounds, glyoxal and formaldehyde in an acidic media. If magnetic nanoparticles coated with amino groups are introduced, they can participate as polyamines in the synthesis thus providing a final nanocomposite where polymeric ionic liquids and nanoparticles are combined. The resulting nanocomposite has been characterized using several instrumental techniques aimed at elucidating its chemical composition (infrared spectroscopy and elemental analysis), properties (zeta potential) and morphology (microscopy, X-ray diffraction and dynamic light scattering). Finally, its sorptive ability towards three non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) such as salicylic acid, ketoprofen and naproxen was evaluated considering the main variables involved in the process. According to the results, the polymeric ionic liquid nanocomposite is a promising sorptive material for analytical purposes.Fil: Castro Grijalba, Alexander. Universidad Nacional de Cuyo.

Dispelling the Myths Behind First-author Citation Counts
No full textWe conducted a full-scale evaluative citation analysis study of scholars in the XML research field to explore just how different from each other author rankings resulting from different citation counting methods actually are, and to demonstrate the capability of emerging data and tools on the Web in supporting more realistic citation counting methods. Our results contest some common arguments for the continued
use of first-author citation counts in the evaluation of scholars, such as high correlations between author rankings by first-author citation counts and other citation
counting methods, and high costs of using more realistic citation counting methods that are not well-supported by the ISI databases. It is argued that increasingly available digital full text research papers make it possible for citation analysis studies to go beyond what the ISI databases have directly supported and to employ more
sophisticated methods

Siloxane-Based Main-Chain Poly(ionic liquid)s <i>via</i> a Debus–Radziszewski Reaction
No full textHerein, we synthesized
a series of siloxane-based poly(ionic liquid)s
(PILs) with imidazolium-type species in the main chain via the multicomponent Debus–Radziszewski reaction. We employed
oligodimethylsiloxane diamine precursors to integrate flexible spacers
in the polymer backbone and ultimately succeeded in obtaining main-chain
PILs with low glass transition temperatures (Tgs) in the range of −40 to −18
°C. Such PILs were combined with conventional hydrophobic vinylimidazolium-based
PILs for the fabrication of porous membranes via interpolyelectrolyte
complexation with poly(acrylic acid), which leads to enhanced mechanical
performance in the tensile testing measurements. This study will enrich
the structure library of main-chain PILs and open up more opportunities
for potential industrial applications of porous imidazolium-based
membranes
Simulation of thermal plant optimization and hydraulic aspects of thermal distribution loops for large campuses
No full textFollowing an introduction, the author describes Texas A&M University and its utilities system. After that, the author presents how to construct simulation models for chilled water and heating hot water distribution systems. The simulation model was used in a $2.3 million Ross Street chilled water pipe replacement project at Texas A&M University. A second project conducted at the University of Texas at San Antonio was used as an example to demonstrate how to identify and design an optimal distribution system by using a simulation model. The author found that the minor losses of these closed loop thermal distribution systems are significantly higher than potable water distribution systems. In the second part of the report, the author presents the latest development of software called the Plant Optimization Program, which can simulate cogeneration plant operation, estimate its operation cost and provide optimized operation suggestions. The author also developed detailed simulation models for a gas turbine and heat recovery steam generator and identified significant potential savings. Finally, the author also used a steam turbine as an example to present a multi-regression method on constructing simulation models by using basic statistics and optimization algorithms. This report presents a survey of the author??s working experience at the Energy Systems Laboratory (ESL) at Texas A&M University during the period of January 2002 through March 2004. The purpose of the above work was to allow the author to become familiar with the practice of engineering. The result is that the author knows how to complete a project from start to finish and understands how both technical and nontechnical aspects of a project need to be considered in order to ensure a quality deliverable and bring a project to successful completion. This report concludes that the objectives of the internship were successfully accomplished and that the requirements for the degree of Degree of Engineering have been satisfied
