Fully aromatic polyimides are synthesized via solid-state polymerization of the corresponding monomer salts. The crystal structure of salts shows strong hydrogen bonding of the reactive groups and thereby paves the way for solid-state transformations. The polycondensation yields copies of the initial salt crystallite habits, accompanied by the development of a porosity especially suited for CO2.
Iron-based catalysts have been reported manifold and studied as platinum group metal (PGM) free alternatives for the catalysis of the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR). However, their sustainable preparation by greener synthesis approaches is usually not discussed. In this work, we propose a new method for the sustainable preparation of such catalysts by using a mechanochemical approach, with no solvents and non-toxic chemicals. The materials obtained from low temperature carbonization (700 °C) exhibit considerable and stable catalytic performance for ORR in alkaline medium. A catalyst obtained
from iron hydroxide, tryptophan, dicyandiamide, and ammonium nitrate shows the best electrocatalytic Performance with an overpotential of 921 mV vs. RHE at 0.1 mA/cm2 and an electron transfer number of 3.4.
The choice of solvents influences crystalline solid formed during the crystallization of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). The underlying effects are not always well understood because of the complexity of the systems. Theoretical models are often insufficient to describe this phenomenon. In this study, the crystallization behavior of the model drug paracetamol in different solvents was studied based on experimental and molecular dynamics data. The crystallization process was followed in situ using time-resolved Raman spectroscopy. Molecular dynamics with simulated annealing algorithm was used for an atomistic understanding of the underlying processes. The experimental and theoretical data indicate that paracetamol molecules adopt a particular geometry in a given solvent predefining the crystallization of certain polymorphs
Crystallization is a complex phenomenon with farreaching implications for the production and formulation of active pharmaceutical ingredients. Understanding this process is critical for achieving control over key physicochemical properties that can affect, for example, the bioavailability and stability of a drug. In this study, we were able to reveal intricate and diverse dynamics of the formation of metastable intermediates of paracetamol crystallization varying with the choice of solvent. We demonstrate the efficacy of our novel approach utilizing an objective function-based non-negative matrix factorization technique for the analysis of time-resolved Raman
spectroscopy data, in conjunction with time-lapse photography.
Furthermore, we emphasize the crucial importance of integrating Raman spectroscopy with supplementary experimental instrumentation for the mathematical analysis of the obtained spectra.
