The physicochemical characterization of the prepared catalysts provides evidence that Fe2(MoO4)3 is in fact the active phase of the catalyst. The experimental results of conversion of methanol and selectivity towards formaldehyde for various residence times were studied. The results showed that as the residence time increases the yield of formaldehyde decreases. Selectivity of formaldehyde decreases with increase in residence time. This result is attributable to subsequent oxidation of formaldehyde to carbon monoxide due to longer residence time.(Selective oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde using modified iron-molybdate catalysts) Kim, T.-H.; Badekai Ramachandra, B.; Choi, J.-S.; Saidutta, M.B.; Choo, K.-Y.; Song, S.-D.; Rhee, Y.-W.2004Item The direct conversion of benzene to phenol by hydroxylation with hydrogen peroxide was carried out over catalysts containing iron impregnated on activated carbon. Iron was impregnated on various surface modified activated carbons. The catalyst that was made by treating activated carbon with nitric acid, that was treated thermally in the presence of nitrogen at 600 °C and impregnated with 5 wt.% iron, gave a phenol yield of 20%. It was found that the synergistic interactions of surface groups and the impregnated iron have enhanced the performance of these catalysts. © 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.(Direct synthesis of phenol from benzene on iron-impregnated activated carbon catalysts) Choi, J.-S.; Kim, T.-H.; Choo, K.-Y.; Sung, J.-S.; Saidutta, M.B.; Ryu, S.-O.; Song, S.-D.; Badekai Ramachandra, B.; Rhee, Y.-W.2005Item Molybdenum based mixed oxide containing Mo0.65V 0.25W0.10 was investigated for the partial oxidation of methanol. The structural property and catalytic activity of the mixed oxide catalyst was studied by surface area (BET), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), energy dispersive X-ray (EDX), Fourier transform infra-red spectroscopy (FTIR) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The thermal activation of the catalyst resulted increase in the conversion of methanol and the selectivity to formaldehyde. The thermal activation of the MoVW mixed oxide in nitrogen atmospheres induces partial crystallization of a Mo5O14-type oxide at 813 K. The SEM images of the thermally activated catalyst show needle like particles. These particles were agglomerates of platelet-like crystallites of a few hundreds of nanometers in size. SEM and EDX techniques show that the mixed oxide is characterized by an inhomogeneous elemental distribution on the length scale of a few microns. XRD of the thermally activated catalyst showed a nanocrystalline material identified as a mixture of Mo5O 14, MoO3 and MoO2-type MoVW oxides. The catalytic activity of the MoVW mixed oxide show a good conversion of methanol and selectivity to formaldehyde. © 2005 Springer Science+Business Media, Inc.(Partial oxidation of methanol to formaldehyde on molybdenum based mixed oxide catalyst) Badekai Ramachandra, B.; Choi, J.-S.; Choo, K.-Y.; Sung, J.-S.; Song, S.-D.; Kim, T.-H.2005Item Synthesis and characterization of nanocrystalline Mo-V-W-Fe-O mixed oxide catalyst and its performance in selective methanol oxidation(2007) Badekai Ramachandra, B.; Choi, J.-S.; Kim, T.-H.A mixed oxide catalyst containing Mo, V, W and Fe with the composition of 63, 23, 09 and 06 wt% respectively for the selective oxidation of the methanol to formaldehyde is in reported in this paper for the first time. The characterization of the catalyst was done using BET surface analysis, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and Energy dispersive X-ray (EDX). The mixed oxide after calcination at 673 K in N2 which was subjected for the thermal activation in N 2flow at 813 K was used for the methanol selective oxidation. The thermal treatment shows enhanced catalytic performance. Thermal activation of the nanocrystalline Mo0.63V23W0.09Fe 0.06O x precursor oxide in nitrogen atmospheres induces partial crystallization of a Mo5O14-type oxide only in a narrow temperature range up to 813 K. XRD showed that the thermally activated mixed oxide consists of a mixture of a majority of crystalline Mo 5O14-type oxide and of small amounts of crystalline MoO3-type and MoO2-type oxides. The structural analysis suggests that the improvement of the catalytic performance of the MoVWFe oxide catalyst in the selective oxidation of methanol is related to the formation of the catalytic active site such as Mo5O14-type mixed oxide. © 2007 Springer Science+Business Media, LLC.Item Synthesis, crystal structures and spectral studies of square planar nickel(II) complexes containing an ONS donor Schiff base and triphenylphosphine(Elsevier Ltd, 2009) Muthu Tamizh, M.; Mereiter, K.; Kirchner, K.; Badekai Ramachandra, B.; Karvembu, R.Five mononuclear nickel(II) complexes, viz. [Ni(L1)(PPh3)] (1), [Ni(L2)(PPh3)] (2), [Ni(L3)(PPh3)] (3), [Ni(L4)(PPh3)] (4) and [Ni(L5)(PPh3)] (5) (where L1, L2, L3, L4 and L5 are dianions of N-(2-mercaptophenyl)salicylideneimine, 5-methyl-N-(2-mercaptophenyl)salicylideneimine, 5-chloro-N-(2-mercaptophenyl)salicylideneimine, 5-bromo-N-(2-mercaptophenyl)salicylideneimine and N-(2-mercaptophenyl)naphthylideneimine, respectively), have been synthesized and characterized by means of elemental analysis, electronic, IR, 1H, 13C and 31P NMR spectroscopy. Single crystal X-ray analysis of two of the complexes (1 and 5) has revealed the presence of a square planar coordination geometry (ONSP) about nickel. The crystal structures of the complexes are stabilized by intermolecular ?-? stacking between the ligands (L) and by various C-H···? interactions. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Its nonlinear response time and third-order nonlinear optical susceptibility at 800nm are ? 90fs and 1.8 × 10 -10esu, respectively. Considerable nonlinear absorption is observed with this sample, near 800 and 1250nm. The contribution of the excited states to the total nonlinear absorption process is discussed. The results reveal the potential of this newly designed compound for multi-photon absorption-based photonic applications. © 2010 IOP Publishing Ltd.
