Advances and Emerging Trends in Classical and Modern Thermodynamics.

By Nidhi Sahu

Abstract: Thermodynamics, as a foundational discipline of physical science, has continually evolved from its classical roots to modern, interdisciplinary applications. Classical thermodynamics established the laws governing energy, entropy, and equilibrium, providing the framework for analyzing heat engines, refrigeration cycles, and chemical processes. Recent advances have expanded these principles into new domains, integrating statistical mechanics, quantum theory,…

Indigo Carmine Oxidations in Aqueous and Micellar Media Using Specific Oxidants—A Review Article

By Kalyana Chakravarthy Mutnuru and Ramakrishna Karipeddi

Abstract: Abstract Indigo carmine is an anionic synthetic dye widely used in textile, food, and pharmaceutical industries. The discharge of this dye into water bodies poses severe environmental concerns due to its intense color, more stability, and resistance to biodegradation. Consequently, the oxidation and degradation of this dye through electron transfer reactions have been widely investigated.…

Mechanistic Insights into Solvent-Controlled Stepwise and Concerted Cycloadditions of the Propadienyl Cation with Oxoamides: A DFT Study

By Vanishree Shankar Naik, Nayela Javeed, and Ganga Periyasamy

Abstract: AbstractOxazoles constitute an important class of heterocycles with widespread applications in medicinal chemistry and materials science, yet the mechanistic features governing their formation via cationic cycloaddition reactions remain incompletely understood. In this work, we present a comprehensive density functional theory (DFT) investigation into the reaction between the propadienyl cation and oxoamides as a model system…
