Journal of Green Chemistry and Chemical Engineering https://jgce.sciforce.org/JGCE <p>Pioneering Sustainability in Chemistry: Journal of Green Chemistry and Chemical Engineering (JGCE) by Sciforce Publications</p> <p>Discover the forefront of sustainable chemistry and engineering with the Journal of Green Chemistry and Chemical Engineering (JGCE), a prestigious publication by Sciforce Publications. JGCE serves as a beacon for the latest research and innovations in the fields of green chemistry, sustainable chemical processes, and environmental-friendly engineering. In this web content, we will delve into the significance of JGCE, its contributions to the scientific community, and the dynamic world of green chemistry and chemical engineering.</p> <p>Journal of Green Chemistry and Chemical Engineering (JGCE) of Sciforce Publications is an interdisciplinary field of Chemical Engineering. JGCE publishes original research articles, book chapters, reviews, letters and short communications, rapid communications, and abstracts. Green chemistry is the design of chemical products and processes that reduce or eliminate the use or generation of hazardous substances. Green chemistry applies across the life cycle of a chemical product, including its design, manufacture, use, and ultimate disposal. While environmental chemistry focuses on the effects of polluting chemicals on nature, green chemistry focuses on the environmental impact of chemistry, including reducing consumption of nonrenewable resources and technological approaches for preventing pollution. The overarching goals of green chemistry namely, more resource efficient and inherently safer design of molecules, materials, products, and processes can be pursued in a wide range of contexts.</p> en-US Editor@Sciforce.net (Dr. Suryakiran Navath, Ph.

In synthetic organic chemistry,compounds containing the carbodiimide functionality are dehydration agents and are often used to activate carboxylic acids towards amide or ester formation. Carboxylic acids will react with the carbodiimide to produce the key intermediate as O-acylisourea which can be considered as a carboxylic ester with an activated leaving group.We have used of five carbodiimide reagent to synthesis twelve sample in this work.The resulting materials were characterized by different techniques,such as Fourier transform infraredspectroscopy (FT-IR), Thermogravimetricanalysis (TGA),Raman spectroscopy,Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM),Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy(FESEM),Atomic Force Microscopy(AFM),High performance liquid chromatography(HPLC).&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;</p> Mohammadreza Gholibeikian, Amirreza Arvaneh, Nastaran Gholami Samalic Copyright (c) 2022 Journal of Green Chemistry and Chemical Engineering https://jgce.sciforce.org/JGCE/article/view/171 Mon, 14 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +0000 The covalent attachment of Naltrexone to multi-walled carbon nanotubes byoxalyl chloride agent https://jgce.sciforce.org/JGCE/article/view/172 <p>This work presents a novel cascade of chemical functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotubes(MWCNTs) through chemical modification by an opioid antagonist drug of Naltrexone. Naltrexone-conjugated MWCNTs were synthesized involving the sequential steps of carboxylation, acylation,and finally,Naltrexoneconjugation.The active acyl chlorides in MWCNTs were subsequently mixed with opioid antagonist drug of Naltrexone.The modification of MWCNTs with Naltrexone was investigated by Fourier transform-infrared spectroscopy,Raman spectroscopy,Thermo Gravimetric Analysis,Elemental Analysis,High Performance Liquid Chromatography.Size and surface characteristics of chemically modified MWCNTs were monitored by Transmission Electron Microscopy,Scanning Electron Microscopy,Field Emission Scanning Electron Microscopy,Atomic Force Microscopy.</p> Mohammadreza Gholibeikian, Amirreza Arvaneh, Nastaran GholamiSamalic Copyright (c) 2022 Journal of Green Chemistry and Chemical Engineering https://jgce.sciforce.org/JGCE/article/view/172 Mon, 14 Mar 2022 00:00:00 +0000 Study and optimization of Diels-Alder reaction of piperine in aqueous ionic solutions using Gn.HCl as a catalyst https://jgce.sciforce.org/JGCE/article/view/18 <p>Study and optimization of Diels-Alder reaction of piperine in aqueous ionic solutions using Gn.HCl as a catalyst. The semi-synthesis of these products using intermolecular [4+2] cycloaddition reaction has been described.
