Abstract: Sol-gel coating formulations including metal oxide particles such as aluminum oxide, calcium oxide, zinc oxide, magnesium oxide, and molybdenum oxide embedded in a hybrid polymer matrix based on a reacted form of a resin composition containing a tetraalkylorthosilicate, an aminoalkylsilane, a dialkoxysilane, and a silanol terminated polydimethylsiloxane. The sol-gel coating formulations are suitable for applications such as anticorrosive protective coatings of metal substrates (e.g. mild steel). These anticorrosive coated metal substrates are evaluated on their hydrophobicity (water contact angle), surface roughness, mechanical strength (e.g. hardness), adhesiveness to the substrate (e.g. critical load), and anticorrosiveness upon exposure to a saline solution (e.g. impedance value).

Abstract: Palladium catalysts, methods of synthesizing palladium-carbene catalysts, and methods of producing chromones and aurones using palladium-N-heterocyclic carbene (NHC) catalysts are provided. In some implementations, the palladium catalysts include a bridged palladium catalyst with distorted square planar geometry around the center palladium atom. The catalysts can be used in cyclocarbonylative Sonogashira cross-coupling reactions to produce chromones and aurones at a high yield. The selectivity of the catalysts can be adjusted by adjusting reaction conditions.
