As part of our ongoing investigation into the use of fungi for nanoparticle synthesis, we report herein that depending on the reaction conditions of the fungus Trichothecium sp. with aqueous gold ions, gold nanoparticle synthesis can be controlled to occur either within the biomass or extracellularly. Moreover, we have found that reaction of gold ions with the Trichothecium sp. fungal biomass under stationary conditions results in the rapid extracellular formation of gold nanoparticles of spherical, rod-like and triangular morphology whereas reaction of the biomass under shaking conditions resulted in intracellular growth of the nanoparticles. It is believed that on changing the reaction conditions of the fungus with gold ions, the enzymes and proteins which are being released into the medium under stationary conditions do not get released under shaking conditions resulting in the formation of extracellular or intracellular gold nanoparticles respectively. The gold nanoparticles are not toxic to the cells and the cells continued to grow after the biosynthesis of the gold nanoparticles in both the cases.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3.929</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>10</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kalita, Pranjal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kumar, Rajiv</style></author></authors><secondary-authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Xu, R</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Gao, Z.</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Chen, J</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Yan, W</style></author></secondary-authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ce-Al-MCM-41: an efficient catalyst for Mukaiyama-Michael reaction</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">From Zeolites to Porous Mof Materials: the 40th Anniversary of International Zeolite Conference, Proceedings of the 15th International Zeolite Conference</style></secondary-title><tertiary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Studies in Surface Science and Catalysis</style></tertiary-title></titles><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">AUG</style></date></pub-dates></dates><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Elsevier Science BV</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Sara Burgerhartstraat 25, Po Box 211, 1000 AE Amsterdam, Netherlands</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">170</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1161-1166</style></pages><isbn><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">978-0-444-53068-4</style></isbn><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;The activity of cerium containing Al-MCM-41 mesoporous materials has been studied for carbon-carbon bond formation reaction like Mukaiyama-Michael reaction under mild liquid phase conditions.

The aim was to study the relative influence of commonly used organic solvents, under solid-liquid (SL)-type biphase reaction conditions, as compared to that of water, on the conversion and product selectivity. Under solvent-free triphase conditions, the ring hydroxylation of anisole, toluene, and benzylchloride leads to significant enhancement in the conversion, turn-over frequency, and para-selectivity. However, in the case of benzyl chloride, no ring hydroxylation took place under biphase conditions (using acetone as solvent) contrary to significant ring hydroxylation (ca. 60% H2O2 efficiency) under triphase aqueous medium conditions. The simple product recovery (phase separation of organic and aqueous layers) and use of water as reaction medium are other advantages. Since TS-1 is relatively hydrophobic, the reaction is hindered in the presence of organic solvents as they compete favorably with the substrate for diffusion inside the TS-1 channels. However, in the presence of water, the organic substrate competes favorably with water, leading to increased conversion and para-selectivity.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">25</style></issue><work-type><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Article</style></work-type><notes><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Joint 6th International Symposium on Catalysis in Multiphase Reactors/5th International Symposium on Multifunctional Reactors (CAMURE-6/ISMR-5-), Pune, INDIA, JAN 14-17, 2007</style></notes><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2.567</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pandey, Rajesh Kumar</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Kumar, Rajiv</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Eco-friendly synthesis of epichlorohydrin catalyzed by titanium silicate (TS-1) molecular sieve and hydrogen peroxide</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Catalysis Communications</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">allyl chloride</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">epichlorohydrin</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">epoxidation</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">heterogeneous catalysis</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">selectivity</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">titanium silicalite-1</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2007</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">MAR</style></date></pub-dates></dates><number><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">3</style></number><publisher><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV</style></publisher><pub-location><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">PO BOX 211, 1000 AE AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS</style></pub-location><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">8</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">379-382</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;In a mixed solvent system of acetonitrile and methanol, titanium silicate molecular sieve, TS-1, having MFI topology, efficiently catalyses the epoxidation of allyl chloride to the corresponding epichlorohydrin in excellent yields using dilute hydrogen peroxide (45%) as an oxidizing agent.

Both the density and the strength of the acid sites were considerably higher in the samples containing both Ce and Al than in the samples with only one of these substituents. The IR spectra of chemisorbed pyridine revealed that the Ce-Al-MCM-41 samples contained at least two distinct Lewis acid sites, L-2 (1595-1444 cm(-1)) and L-1 (1613-1452 cm(-1)), where the L-2/L-1 ratio increased progressively with increasing Ce/Al atomic ratio in a series of samples with similar Si/Al ratios. In addition, the density of the Bronsted acid sites (B) as well as the B/L-1 ratio increased with increasing Ce/Al molar ratio in these samples. The findings of this study help us understand the synergistic role played by Lewis and Bronsted acid sites in the catalytic activity of these catalysts for the benzylation of toluene.

The present article explains the effect of different synthesis parameters on NCL-5, NCL-6 and NCL-7. The samples were characterized using XRD, low temperature N-2-adsorption, Si-29 MAS NMR and FTIR spectroscopy. The phase composition of the structures was derived using simulated patterns for the random intergrowths of polymorphs A and B using DIFFaX Code. The stacking direction c' is perpendicular to the a'b' plane of the layer. The phase composition of polymorph B derived using DIFFaX code was found to be 90-95%. 70-75% and 60-65% in NCL-5, NCL-6 and NCL-7, respectively. The gradual decrease of polymorph B concentration in these samples showed a correlation with the decrease in water/SiO2 molar ratio in gel. The framework FTIR spectral analysis of NCL-5 and all-silica-beta supported the postulation that significant enrichment of polymorph B in NCL-5 compared to that in all-silica-beta, as indicated by the relative intensities of pair of bands at 1097 and 1018 cm(-1) and 460 and 423 cm(-1) vibrations, leads to more tortuous channel structure associated with polymorph B.

ruthenium phenanthroline metal complexes in amino functionalized MCM-41 in biphasic aqueous reaction medium was investigated. The catalyst was characterized by XRD, TEM, surface analysis, FT-IR and UV-vis to understand the morphology, complex geometry, and XPS such that the oxidation state of the metal complex inside the MCM-41 framework could be understood. The use of water as a solvent, not only gives high activity and selectivity for hydrogenation of acetylacetone, but also gives a path for an environmentally safer process. The optimizations of ligand, metal to ligand ratio, the choice of solvent and other reaction parameters were studied in detail. The heterogeneous catalytic system gave a higher degree of chemoselectivity (99%) towards 4-hydroxypentan-2-one as compared to homogeneous catalyst when hydrogenation was carried out using water as a solvent. The immobilized ruthenium-phenanthroline complex was easily separated and reused. (C) 2010 Elsevier B.V.

These samples exhibited higher catalytic activity for Mukaiyama-aldol condensations to produce beta-hydroxy carbonyl compounds under the solvent free conditions, compared to the samples containing either of the two cations. The product yield was found to depend on the electron donating/withdrawing characteristics of reactant molecules being responsible for the observed trend. Series of solvents were also investigated but considerably high yield of aldol products (similar to 95%) could be achieved without using any solvents. In all the cases, the selectivity was found to be 100%, typical of such Mukaiyama-aldol condensations.

One approach that shows immense potential is based on the biosynthesis of nanoparticles using microorganisms such as bacteria. In this report, we demonstrate the extracellular biosynthesis and complete characterization of metal sulfide (PbS, ZnS, MnS and NiS) nanoparticles using fungus, Fusarium oxysporum. We observed that the exposure of aqueous solution of 1 mM metal sulfate to fungus Fusarium oxysporum resulted in the formation of highly stable technologically important metal sulfide semiconductor nanoparticles. Fusarium oxysporum synthesizes lead sulfide and zinc sulfide nanoparticles of fractal type structure whereas manganese sulfide and nickel sulfide nanoparticles are of variable polydispersed morphology. The variable morphology may be due to the dissimilar interaction of metal sulfide nanoparticles with capping proteins secreted by the fungus in solution. The nanoparticles solution is found to be extremely stable with little evidence of aggregation even after a month of storage. The long term stability of the nanoparticles is due to the proteins secreted by fungus in the nanoparticle solution which bind to the surface of the nanoparticles and thus prevent aggregation.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><issue><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">4</style></issue><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">1.24</style></custom4></record></records></xml>
