    Green conversion oxidation of alcohols using metal complexes: homogeneous catalysis
    (Lambert Academic Publishing, Germany, 2020) Dileep, R.; Bhat, Badekai Ramachandra
    The oxidation of alcohols has been of great value in organic synthesis and represents an important entry to essential functional groups, such as ketones, aldehydes, and carboxylic acids. Many standard oxidation procedures have been available for this purpose; nevertheless, reactions currently used to oxidize alcohols employ toxic chromium oxide. Many industrial oxidation reactions are currently performed with stoichiometric amounts of oxidants such as peroxides, nitric acid and high metal oxides. Thus, there is a constant need to develop inexpensive oxidants, preferably under catalytic conditions, to minimize inevitable co-products, which represents an environmental problem. The designing of such oxidation system remains a challenge; ideal catalytic oxidation reactions should operate at room temperature in an environmental friendly solvent system, e.g. water and use green co-oxidants, such as oxygen (air) or hydrogen peroxide.This book brings an insight on such green, environmentally benign processes involving transition metal complexes in Ionic liquids which are recyclable and reusable.

    Mathematical Modeling for the Solutions of Equations and Systems of Equations with Applications Vol.4
    (Nova Science Publication, New York, 2020) Argyros, Ioannis K.; George, Santhosh
    These books are intended for undergraduate, graduate researchers and practitioners in computational sciences, and as reference books for an advanced computational methods course. We have included new results for iterative procedures in abstract spaces general enough for handling inverse problems in various situations related to real life problems through mathematical modeling. These books contain a plethora of updated bibliography and provide comparison between various investigations made in recent years in the field of computational mathematics in the wide sense. Iterative processes are the tools used to generate sequences approximating solutions of equations describing the real life problems stated above and others originating from biosciences, engineering, mathematical economics, mathematical biology, mathematical chemistry, mathematical physics medicine, mathematical programming, and other disciplines. These books also provide, recent advancements on the study of iterative procedures, and can be used as a source from which one can obtain the proper method to use in order to solve a problem. The books require a fundamental background in mathematical statistics, linear algebra and numerical analysis. It may be used as a self-study reference or as a supplementary text for an advanced course in biosciences, engineering and computational sciences.
