A convenient and environmentally benign method for reducing the carbonyl group in hydroxy- and amino- 9,10-anthracenediones, ortho （or para） acyl phenols and acyl anilines to a methylene group by zinc powder in an a...A convenient and environmentally benign method for reducing the carbonyl group in hydroxy- and amino- 9,10-anthracenediones, ortho （or para） acyl phenols and acyl anilines to a methylene group by zinc powder in an aqueous sodium hydroxide solution was reported. Based on theoretical calculations using the density functional theory （DFT）, the mechanism of these reduction reactions was postulated. This mechanism can be applied to help predicting the reduced products of aryl ketones （or aldehydes） in an alkaline solution.展开更多

The results of X ray, SEM and EIS (Electrochem. Impedance Spectrum) indicated that the microstructures of zinc powder could be modified according to the kinds of suspension species. Suspension of TiO 2, SiO 2, In 2O 3, PbO 2 and SnO 2 could obviously improve the polarization resistance of zinc powder anodes in 5 mol/L KOH solution.展开更多
