The iron/diphosphine‐catalyzed annulation of a carboxamide possessing a bidentate directing group with an internal alkyne proceeds in the presence of phenylzinc halide as a base at 40 °C to produce a variety of indenone derivatives. The reaction proceeds through iron‐catalyzed C−H bond activation of the carboxamide, followed by insertion of the alkyne into the resulting iron intermediate, and cyclization accelerated by the presence of Lewis acidic ZnII. The reaction of naphthalene and anthraceneamide yields π‐conjugated indenone derivatives.
In recent years, the usage potential of alternative energy sources has been gaining importance to increase the efficiency of ships within the scope of the obligations brought by international maritime regulations. The possibility of using alternative energy sources such as solar energy, wind energy, fuel cells, and waste heat recovery technologies on ships has been evaluated in the literature. Today, ships also have waste heat recovery systems as standard equipment for this purpose, and this method is suitable for thermoelectric generators that generate electricity from temperature differences on shipboards. This article aims to review the thermal technologies for the power generation of shipboards. By conducting a case study, an energy efficiency increase was obtained when functional areas were selected on a practical ship, and the effect of this efficiency increase on emissions was examined. As a result of the research, it was discovered that thermoelectric generators increased onboard energy efficiency and have significant potential for sustainability in the maritime sector.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
