Sarvi, Iraj;Zahedi, Ehsan published 《Zinc Oxide/Graphene Oxide as a Robust Active Catalyst for Direct Oxidative Synthesis of Nitriles from Alcohols in Water》 in 2022. The article was appeared in 《Catalysis Letters》. They have made some progress in their research.Quality Control of 3-Cyanopyridine The article mentions the following:
In this work, without using any linker or chem. modification of graphene oxide, a zinc oxide immobilized graphene oxide-based catalyst was used for the direct aerobic oxidative conversion of alcs. to the nitriles in water. In the first step, graphene oxide was prepared and then zinc ions were electrostatically adsorbed onto the surface of graphene oxide. In the following step, zinc oxide nanoparticles were generated via in-situ growth in presence of NaOH. It was illustrated that graphene oxide layers can control the size of in-situ generated zinc oxide nanoparticles. Various aromatic/aliphatic/heteroaromatic primary alcs. converted to the nitriles in high yields under O2 balloon with ZnO/GO catalyst. This catalyst can be used for 7 successful consecutive runs without significant loss of activity.3-Cyanopyridine (cas: 100-54-9) were involved in the experimental procedure.
3-Cyanopyridine(cas: 100-54-9) has been shown to have a number of pharmacological effects: it inhibits the production of prostaglandin E2 and nitric oxide in congestive heart failure patients; it prevents the formation of diazonium salt from benzene and nitrogen dioxide; it inhibits the growth of tumor cell lines; and it protects mice from radiation injury by scavenging reactive oxygen species.
