Tailoring Cu immobilized MCM-41-based mesostructured catalysts for selective hydrogenolysis of biomass-derived furfural Leela Prasad Yandrati, Swamy Sekhar Kaladi, Raveendra Gundeboyina, Ramakrishna Pothu, Vijaya Moli, B. Venkateswara Rao, Rajender Boddula, Rammohanrao Devulapalli, Harisekhar Mitta Catalysis Communications, 2024 The CuO-supported MCM-41 catalysts were prepared using a simple incipient wet impregnation method. The catalysts were investigated for hydrogenation of furfural to furfuryl alcohol synthesis. Among all the catalysts, the 2.5% CuO/MCM-41 catalyst shows the best catalytic performance with 92.5% conversion and 89% selectivity of furfuryl alcohol at 210 °C. The catalyst also demonstrated a high turnover frequency (TOF) of 154.4 h−1. The 2.5% CuO/MCM-41 catalyst remained stable for up to 20 h during the time on stream.
Introduction and Background of MXenes Srikanth Ponnada, Sarita Yadav, Demudu Babu Gorle, Indu Kumari, Battula Venkateswara Rao, Rakesh K. Sharma Mxene Nanocomposites Design Fabrication and Shielding Applications, 2023 MXenes are a family of two-dimensional inorganic compounds. These materials, discovered in 2011 by Prof. Yury Gogotsi's and Prof. Michel Barsoum's research groups at Drexel University, consist of a-few-atoms-thick layers of transition-metal carbides, nitrides and carbonitrides. MXenes exhibit a special combination of metallic conductivity of transition-metal carbides or nitrides and high hydrophilic nature of their hydroxyl- or oxygen-functional group terminated surfaces. MXenes are prepared via HF (hydrofluoric acid) etching of MAX phases, which includes a large family of ternary compounds consisting of transition metal (M), an A-group element (A) and a carbon and/or nitrogen (X). This chapter focuses on detailed introduction and background of different types of MXenes and their structures and properties.
Rapid Synthesis of 1-Aryl-3, 3-dimethyltriazenes by Using In Situ Generated Aryldiazonium Tetrafluoroborate Salts with “DMF-DMA” under Ambient Conditions Rajesh Akkineni, Sarma V. Markandeya, Avvari N. Prasad, Bhaskar Yamajala, Venkateswara Rao B, Shankar Chaudhari, Deepak Kumar, Sandip T. Gadge, Bhalchandra M. Bhanage Chemistryselect, 2022 Abstract An efficient and rapid method of synthesizing 1–3,3‐dimethyl triazenes has been developed. This method involves utilizing in situ generated aryldiazonium tetrafluoroborate salts using substituted aryl amines with “DMF‐DMA” (N,N‐Dimethylformamide‐dimethyl acetal) at room temperature. This reaction achieved good to excellent yields (68–95 %) under ambient conditions with a significantly faster rate. The proposed reaction was screened with various withdrawing, donating, and neutral groups containing aryldiazonium salts, and obtained products were confirmed by 1 H, 13 C NMR and mass spectroscopy techniques.
A novel stability-indicating HPLC method for the determination of enantiomeric purity of eluxadoline drug: Amylose tris(3,5-dichlorophenyl carbamate) stationary phase Sudhakar Yerra, Hemantkumar Sharma, Sreenivasulu B, Mohana Naidu K, Venkateswara Rao B Biomedical Chromatography, 2022 A simple and sensitive stability indicating chiral HPLC method has been developed and validated as per ICH guidelines for the determination of enantiomeric purity of Eluxadoline drug substance. The impact of different mobile phase compositions and CSP's on the separation of Eluxadoline enantiomer along with process and degradation related impurities have been studied. Homogeneity of Eluxadoline and stable results of Eluxadoline enantiomer in all degraded samples reveals the fact that the proposed method was specific (stability indicating). Amylose tris (3,5-dichlorophenyl carbamate) stationary phase column Chiralpak IE-3(150mm x 4.6mm), 3μm give better resolution with polar organic solvents than cellulose derivative, crown ether and zwitterion stationary phases and non-polar solvents. Mobile phase consisted of acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran, methanol, butylamine and acetic acid in the ratio of 500:500:20:2:1.5 v/v/v/v/v. Isocratic elution was performedat a flow rate of 1.0 mL/min, 35°C column temperature, 10 μl injection volume and 240 nm UV detection. The USP resolution of Eluxadoline enantiomers was found to be more than 4.0 within 65mins run time. Eluxadoline enantiomer detector response linearity over the concentration range of 0.859-4.524 μg/mL was found to be R2 =0.9985. LOD and LOQ and average %recovery values were established as 0.283 μg/mL, 0.859μg/mL and 96.0, respectively.

A novel reverse phase hplc method for the quantification of potential genotoxic impurities in doripenem monohydrate: A broad-spectrum carbapenem antibiotic drug Sudhakar Yerra, P.N. Kishore Babu, B. Sreenivasulu, Hemant Kumar Sharma, K. Mohana Naidu, B.

The analysis performed on Alliance Waters e2695 separation module on C18 (250 × 4.6) mm, 5 μm (make: Inertsil) column, oven temperature maintained at 40 ºC and UV detection at 270 nm. The separation was accomplished using buffer (pH 6.0 ± 0.05) and acetonitrile in the ratio of 98:2 v/v as mobile phase-A and acetonitrile as mobile phase-B, flow rate: 1.0 mL/min and injection volume: 50 μL. The proposed method was validated as per ICH guidelines in terms of limit of detection (LOD), limit of quantification (LOQ), linearity, precision, accuracy and specificity.

In situ FTIR spectroscopic monitoring of the formation of the arene diazonium salts and its applications to the heck-matsuda reaction K. Sateesh Reddy, Bandi Siva, S. Divya Reddy, N. Reddy Naresh, T. V. Pratap, B. Venkateswara Rao, Yi-An Hong, B. Vijaya Kumar, A. Krishnam Raju, P. Muralidhar Reddy, Anren Hu Molecules, 2020 This study depicts the use of a fiber-optic coupled Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy-attenuated total reflection (FTIR-ATR) probe for the in-depth study of arene diazonium salt formation and their utilization in the Heck–Matsuda reaction. The combination of these chemical reactions and in situ IR spectroscopy enabled us to recognize the optimum parameters for arene diazonium salt formation and to track the concentrations of reactants, products and intermediates under actual reaction conditions without time consuming HPLC analysis and the necessity of collecting the sample amid the reaction. Overall advantages of the proposed methodology include precise reaction times as well as identification of keto enol tautomerization in allylic alcohols supporting the ‘path a’ elimination mechanism in the Heck–Matsuda reaction.
