The high-power ultrasonic irradiation of preformed magnetite (Fe(3)O(4)) nanoparticles in the presence of monoelectronic Ce-containing ceric ammonium nitrate [Ce(IV)(NH(4))(2)(NO(3))(6)] oxidant in MeCOMe afforded hydrophilic 50 nm-sized colloidal, highly stable maghemite (gamma-Fe(2)O(3)) nanoparticles. An "inorganic" Ce atom doping of the NP
An efficient and eco-friendly method for the synthesis of 4,4'-(arylmethylene)bis(1H-pyrazol-5-ols) has been accomplished by tandem Knoevenagel-Michael reaction of two equivalents of 5-methyl-2-phenyl-2,4-dihydro-3H-pyrazol-3-one with various aromatic aldehydes catalyzed by ceric ammonium nitrate (CAN) in water. All the synthesized compounds 3a-j were
