    Nanocrystalline copper doped zinc oxide produced from copper doped zinc hydroxide nitrate as a layered precursor

    , Article Advanced Powder Technology ; Volume 23, Issue 3 , 2012 , Pages 279-283 ; 09218831 (ISSN) Ghotbi, M. Y ; Bagheri, N ; Sadrnezhaad, S. K ; Sharif University of Technology
    Abstract
    Undoped and copper doped nanostructured zinc oxides were synthesized by using a series of synthetic layered material, undoped and copper doped zinc hydroxide nitrates at various molar percentages of copper (2-10) within the layers as precursors. The layered materials were heat-treated at 500 °C to produce zinc oxide nanostructures with crystallite sizes in the range of 23-35 nm. Optical studies of the nanostructured copper doped zinc oxides showed the decrease in band gap with increasing content of the doping agent, copper

    Abstract
    An efficient synthesis of tetrahydrobenzofurans is carried out in one pot through the reaction of 1,3-diketone and phenacyl bromides compound using a heterogeneous basic nano particles copper oxide catalyst. The protocol offers advantages in terms of higher yields, short reaction times, and mild reaction conditions, with reusability of the catalyst. © 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved
