Name: 1-Thiophen-2-yl-ethanone The article mentions the following:
A new sustainable and environmentally friendly adsorbent based on a β-ketoenol-pyrazole-thiophene receptor grafted onto a silica surface was developed and applied to the removal of heavy-metal ions (Pb(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II)) from aquatic medium. The new material SiNPz-Th was well characterized and confirms the success of covalent binding of the receptor on the silica surface. The effect of environmental parameters on adsorption including pH, contact time, temperature, and the initial concentration were investigated. The maximum adsorption capacities of SiNPz-Th for Pb(II), Cu(II), Zn(II), and Cd(II) ions were 102.20, 76.42, 68.95, and 32.68 mg/g, resp., at 30 min and pH = 6. The adsorption isotherms, kinetics, and thermodn. process were investigated and showed efficiency and selectivity toward Pb(II) and good regeneration performance. D. functional theory, noncovalent-interaction, and quantum theory of atoms in mols. calculations were used to study and to gain a deeper understanding of both the adsorption mechanism and selectivity of metal ions onto the adsorbent. Accordingly, metal ions such as Pb(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) were bidentate coordinated with the adsorbent by nitrogen and oxygen atoms of the Schiff base C=N and hydroxyl group -OH, resp., to form stable complexes. Whereas Cd(II) was coordinated in a monodentate fashion with oxygen atom of the hydroxyl group. Furthermore, the affinity of SiNPz-Th toward the metal ions was decreased in the order of Pb(II) > Cu(II) > Zn(II) > Cd(II), in good agreement with the exptl. results. All these results highlight that SiNPz-Th has good potential to be an advanced adsorbent for the removal of lead ions from real water. The experimental process involved the reaction of 1-Thiophen-2-yl-ethanone(cas: 88-15-3Name: 1-Thiophen-2-yl-ethanone)
1-Thiophen-2-yl-ethanone(cas: 88-15-3) belongs to thiophenes. Specialized thiophenes can be synthesized similarly using Lawesson’s reagent as the sulfidizing agent, or via the Gewald reaction, which involves the condensation of two esters in the presence of elemental sulfur. Another method is the Volhard–Erdmann cyclization. Name: 1-Thiophen-2-yl-ethanone
