Hydroxybenzothiophenes, dihydroxy-benzothiophenes, and benzothiophenedione were identified as inter-mediates of benzothiophene (BT) exposed to ultrasonic irradiation. It is proposed that benzothiophene is oxidized by OH radical to sequentially for m hydroxybenzothiophenes, dihydroxybenzothiophenes, and benzothiophenedione. Benzothiophene is decomposed rapidly following pseudo-first-order kinetics in a first-order manner by ultrasonic irradiation in aqueous solution. The toxicity of sonochemically treated solutions was checked by E. coli and a less inhibition in bacterial respiration was observed from the 120-min treated benzothiophene sample than from the untreated benzothiophene sample. Also evolution of carbon dioxide and sulfite was observed during ultrasonic reaction. A pathway for ultrasonic decomposition of benzothiophene in aqueous solution is proposed.

This study reports the hydrogen sulfide gas sensing properties of ZnO nanorods bundle and the investigation of gas sensing mechanism. Also the improvement of sensing properties was also studied through the application of ZnO heterstructured nanorods. The 1-Dimensional ZnO nano-structure was synthesized by hydrothermal method and ZnO nano-heterostructures were prepared by sonochemical reaction. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) spectra confirmed a well-crystalline ZnO of hexagonal structure. The gas response of ZnO nanorods bundle sensor increased with increasing temperature, which is thought to be due to chemical reaction of nanorods with gas molecules. Through analysis of X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), the sensing mechanism of ZnO nanorods bundle sensor was explained by well-known surface reaction between ZnO surface atoms and hydrogen sulfide. However at high sensing temperature, chemical conversion of ZnO nanorods becomes a dominant sensing mechanism in current system. In order to improve the gas sensing properties, simple type of gas sensor was fabricated with ZnO nano-heterostructures, which were prepared by deposition of CuO, Au on the ZnO nanorods bundle. These heteronanostructures show higher gas response and higher current level than ZnO nanorods bundle. The gas sensing mechanism of the heteronanostructure can be explained by the chemical conversion of sensing material through the reaction with target gas.

Indium and gallium have emerged as useful metals in organic synthesis as a result of its intriguing chemical properties of reactivity, selectivity, and low toxicity. Although indium belongs to a main metal in group 13, its first ionization potential energy is very low and stable in H2O and O2. Therefore, indium-mediated organic reactions are of our current interest. On the basis of these properties of indium, many efficient indium-mediated organic reactions have been recently developed, such as the addition reactions of allylindium to carbonyl and iminium groups, the indium-mediated synthesis of 2-(2-hydroxyethyl)homoallenylsilanes, the indiummediated allylation of keto esters with allyl halides, sonochemical Reformatsky reaction using indium, the indium-mediated selective introduction of allenyl and propargyl groups at C-4 position of 2-azetidinones, the indium-mediated Michael addition and Hosomi-Sakurai reactions, the indium-mediated β-allylation, β- propargylation and β-allenylation onto α,β-unsaturated ketones, the highly efficient 1,4-addition of 1,3-diesters to conjugated enones by indium and TMSCl, and the intramolecular carboindation reactions. Also, we found gallium-mediated organic reactions such as addition reactions of propargylgallium to carbonyl group and regioselective allylgallation of terminal alkynes.

The aim of this study is to investigate the degradation of ciprofloxacin (CIP) from its aqueous solutions via different advanced oxidation processes (AOP). The effects of persulfate (PS) concentration, pH, zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO-NPs) dose, initial CIP concentration, and reaction time on the degradation of CIP were studied. It was found that the sonochemical (US) degradation is a less efficient process (with removal efficiency of 36%) compared to the sono-nano-chemical (US/ZnO) process which resulted in removal efficiency of 70%. Maximum removal of 99% was obtained using the sono-nano-chemical/PS (US/ZnO/PS) process at a frequency of 60 kHz, time of 10 min, pH of 7, initial CIP concentration of 25 mg/L, and PS concentration of 476.06 mg/L. The addition of PS and ZnO-NPs to the process enhanced the rate of US degradation of CIP. In addition, the kinetic parameters for the US/ZnO/PS process were obtained by fitting the kinetic data into the pseudo-first-order and pseudo-second-order kinetic models. The kinetic data was found to fit into the pseudo-first-order kinetic model than the pseudo-second-order model. The results showed that the AOP using US/ZnO/PS is a promising technique for the treatment of ciprofloxacin containing solutions.

A enameled wire may have better corona-resistance when its coating material contains nano-sized inorganic particles. However, industrial applications are still limited because an aggregation between nanofillers may happen during coating processes. In this study we use a novel scheme of surface modification with silane on silica nanoparticles using sonochemical reaction where composition and surface density of silanes can be controlled in order to reduce particle-particle attractive interaction. Functionalized nanoparticles are evenly dispersed in the matrix confirmed by SEM and energy dispersive x-ray analysis. Dielectric strength and thermal resistance of the nanocomposite wires are improved while flexibility of the wire maintains.

Particle size of silicones can be controlled by changing the reaction conditions such as temperature and concentrations of water and tetramethoxysilane (TMOS). Alternatively, the use of ultrasound radiation is also an elegant technique to decrease the particle size. Small silicone particles can be obtained at low temperature from diluted reagent containing TMOS, especially under the powerful ultrasound radiation. The size control may be explained by the rate of particle growth rather than that of nucleation.

Tageteserecta flower like zinc oxide nanostructures composed of hexagonal nanorods were synthesized via sonochemical method at room temperature. The synthesized nanomaterials exhibited wurtzite hexagonal phase structure with the single crystalline nature. The diameter of the individual nanorods that constitute the flower shaped zinc oxide structures is in the range of 120-160 nm. The sonication time effectively determined the morphological properties of the prepared materials. The catalytic activity of prepared zinc oxide nanostructures towards N-formylation reactions were evaluated without any surface modification and the nanostructures exhibited good reaction yield with the prompt recyclability behavior.

크기가 큰 치환기의 폴리실란-[2-($R^1R^2$-phenyl)propyl]Si[$R^3$]-[예:$R^1=R^2$=H, $R^3$=n-hexyl; 폴리(2-페닐프로필)(n-헥실)실란]을 초음파 화학적 방법을 사용하여 Wurtz 축합반응에 의해 합성하였다. 초음파는 톨루엔 용매 중 금속 나트륨을 분산시켜 작은 크기와 높은 표면 활성의 나트륨을 형성하였으며 이에 의해 Wurtz 축합반응이 진행되었고 또한 초음파는 부 생성물인 염화나트륨이 나트륨 표면에 침착되는 것을 방지하여 표면활성이 지속적으로 유지되도록 하여 효율적인 반응이 기대되었다. 폴리실란 생성물은 저분자량의 중합체(분자량~$10^3$)와 고분자량의 중합체(분자량~$10^6$)의 혼합물로 얻어 졌다. 전체 수득률은 75-99% 이었으나 $R^3$가 n-hexyl기인 경우에는 혼합비율은 고분자량 중합체가 주 생성물로, cyclohexyl 또는 2-phenylethyl기인 경우에는 저분자량 중합체가 주 생성물로 얻어져 폴리실란의 치환기 종류에 영향을 받는 것으로 나타났으나 $R^1, R^2$의 변화는 영향을 나타내지 않았다.

$PbMoO_4$ nanoparticles were successfully obtained in the presence of ethylene glycol (EG) with the assistance of a prolonged sonication process. The nanoparticles were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS) and adsorption-desorption $N_2$ isotherms (BET). The catalyst prepared sonochemically showed higher photocatalytic activity than $PbMoO_4$ prepared by solid-state reaction in the degradation reactions of rhodamine B (rhB), indigo carmine (IC), orange G (OG), and methyl orange (MO) under UV-Vis light radiation. In order to elucidate aspects of the degradation mechanism of the organic dyes, some experimental variables were modified such as pH, $O_2$ level in solution, and radiation source. In general, the photocatalytic activity for the degradation of organic dyes followed the sequence IC>OG>rhB>MO.
