Aging data based on daily cogeneration profile
The EU-funded project SAPPHIRE (System automation of PEMFCs with prognostics and health management for improved reliability and economy) was initiated to address the relatively short life expectancy of PEMFCs. Extending service life can be achieved in several ways – one of these is prognostics and ...
Aging data based on cogeneration profile
The main objective of the PROPICE project is to develop intelligent PHM (Prognostics & Health Management) methods to monitor the health status and estimate the lifetime of proton exchange membrane fuel cell systems.
Pronostics & Health Management of fuel cell systems project
The PHM-PAC project is mainly aimed at developing intelligent methods for the detection, diagnosis and prognosis of fuel cell failures. This project should allow the optimization of the performance of fuel cell systems as well as a better understanding of the electrochemical phenomena affecting the ...
4′-(N-(Propargyl)pyrrol-2-yl)-2,2′:6′,2′′-terpyridine
A new terpyridine molecule, bearing a N-propargylated pyrrole, was prepared and characterized. Its synthesis was based on a Krohnke-type reaction between 2-acetylpyridine and N-propargylpyrrole-2-carboxaldehyde in a basic medium. An allene-containing terpyridine was also obtained as a by-product.
1-{4-[(Hexyloxy)methyl]pyridin-2-yl}ethanone
A new member of the 2-acetylpyridine family has been prepared and characterized by NMR and IR spectroscopies.
Antimicrobial Activity and DFT Studies of a Novel Set of Spiropyrrolidines Tethered with Thiochroman-4-one/Chroman-4-one Scaffolds
A novel series of 14 spiropyrrolidines bearing thiochroman-4-one/chroman-4-one, and oxindole/acenaphthylene-1,2-dione moieties were synthesized and characterized by spectroscopic techniques, as well as by three X-ray diffraction studies, corroborating the stereochemistry. Quantum chemical ...
1-(4-Formyl-2,6-dimethoxyphenoxy)-4-chlorobut-2-yne
A reaction of biomass-derived aldehyde synringaldehyde and half an equivalent of 1,4-dichlorobut-2-yne was attempted in order to obtain a bis-aldehyde with an alkyne spacer. The reaction was carried out in a basic media to effect bis O-alkylation, as described in literature for the preparation of ...
4′-(5-Methylfuran-2-yl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine: A New Ligand Obtained from a Biomass-Derived Aldehyde with Potential Application in Metal-Catalyzed Reactions
The new ligand 4′-(5-methylfuran-2-yl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine (1) was prepared in one step from 2-acetylpyridine and 5-methylfurfural. The latter is an aldehyde that can be readily obtained from biomass. The new terpyridine molecule was characterized by 1H and 13C-NMR spectroscopy as well as by ...
4,4″-Dichloro-4′-(2-thienyl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine
A new thiophene-substituted terpyridine derivative has been prepared and characterized. This ligand features a thiophene heterocycle (as an electrochemically polymerizable unit) as well as two chlorine atoms for further functionalization.
4′-(N-(Propan-1,2-dienyl)pyrrol-2-yl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine
A new pyrrole-substituted terpyridine derivative that possesses an allene moiety was obtained as an “unexpected” sole product during an attempt to alkylate the N-atom of pyrrole with propargyl bromide in order to obtain an alkyne-functionalized terpyridine.
4′-(5-n-Propylthiophen-2-yl)-2,2′:6′,2″-terpyridine
A new thiophene-substituted terpyridine derivative has been prepared through the reaction between 5-n-propylthiophene-2-carboxaldehyde and 2-acetylpyridine. This terpyridine derivative bears an alkyl chain linked via a thiophene heterocycle.
Three-Component Access to Functionalized Spiropyrrolidine Heterocyclic Scaffolds and Their Cholinesterase Inhibitory Activity
A novel one-pot [3+2]-cycloaddition reaction of (E)-3-arylidene-1-phenyl-succinimides, cyclic 1,2-diketones (isatin, 5-chloro-isatin and acenaphtenequinone), and diverse α-aminoacids such as 2-phenylglycine or sarcosine is reported. The reaction provides succinimide-substituted dispiropyrrolidine ...
