Abstract
Lipophilization of natural antioxidants is a proven strategy to enhance the solubility in bulk oil systems, thereby increasing their efficacy against oxidative degradation. This study aims to synthesize esters of 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (3,4-DHPA) using Amberlyst-15 and to study the application of these esters in refined fish oil. Lipophilic esters were synthesized by esterification and transesterification of 3,4-DHPA in various solvent systems. Esters of methanol, butanol and hexanol were obtained with percent conversion of 81.1, 69.3 and 78.8 respectively, and were subjected to molecular characterization and in vitro oxidant assays. The 3,4-DHPA and its methyl ester showed 36% reduction in the TOTOX value over 30 days of storage. The length of the acyl chain in the ester was found to exert a high influence on its efficacy and lipophilicity. This is the first report of 3,4-DHPA and its lipophilic esters studied for enhancing the oxidative stability of fish oil.

Abstract
UNLABELLED Intensification in synthesis of triglycerides of octanoic acid using a heterogeneous amberlyst-15 catalyst has been investigated with the application of ultrasound under solvent-free conditions. Further, the frying characteristics of medium-chain triglycerides (tricaprin) are evaluated by deep frying of French fries in various combinations of palm oil and tricaprin. Understanding into the effect of parameters such as the temperature of the reaction (over the range of 40 °C-80 °C), loading of amberlyst-15 (1%-5%) and molar ratio of fatty acid to glycerol (3:1-3:5) along with the ultrasound conditions as duty cycle (40%-90%) and time on the conversion (%) has also been developed. Based on the outcomes of the study, optimum reaction conditions seen are 3:4 as the molar ratio of fatty acid (C8): glycerol, amberlyst-15 loading of 3% and a reaction temperature of 50 °C. It was further observed that the optimum ultrasound conditions required for maximum conversion of 99.8% were 240 W power, 80% duty cycle and 15 min as the ultrasound irradiation time. Under similar conditions, the conventional synthesis resulted in only 20% conversion in 15 min. Reusability studies also established that the acid-resin catalyst was effectively reused for 8 times. The PV, p-AV and TPC of frying oil combination containing higher tricaprin (50:50-palm oil: MCT) was 8.4 ± 0.8, 23.1 ± 0.01 and 29.8 ± 0.01 respectively, which were lowest as compared with other blends indicating the beneficial effects of MCT in frying applications. The work clearly shows that the ultrasound application for the synthesis of triglyceride of octanoic acid gives higher conversion (%) in a less time and also demonstrates that MCT could be a good alternative for deep frying of foods in combination with palm oil to enhance the shelf-life of food.

Abstract
This article reports an energy-efficient green pathway for the sustainable conversion of an abundant agro-residue viz. wheat husk (WH) into fermentable sugar (FS). The intensification effects of tungsten-halogen (TH) (150 W) and ultraviolet (UV) (100 W) irradiations on the pretreatment and subsequent hydrolysis of WH have been experimented with and optimized by Taguchi Orthogonal Design Array (TODA). In this study, two commercial catalysts, viz. Amberlyst-15 (A15) and nano-anataseTiO2 (NAT) have been used in varying concentrations for the WH conversion process in a novel TH-UV radiated rotating reactor (THUVRR). At optimized peracetic acid pretreatment conditions [90 °C reaction temperature; 1: 2.5 w/w of WH: H2O2; 1: 5 w/w of WH: CH3COOH (1 M); 2h of reaction time] maximum 20.2 wt. % FS yield and 15 wt. % isolated lignin (purity 97.6 %) were obtained. Subsequently, the pretreated WH (PWH) was hydrolyzed at optimized conditions [(700C reaction temperature; 7.5wt. % catalyst concentration (1:1 w/w A15: NAT); 1: 30 w/w of WH: water; 30 min reaction time)] in THUVRR to render maximum yield of FS (36.9g/ L) (67.4 wt. %), which was significantly greater than that obtained (20.2g/ L) (38.42 wt. %) employing a conventional thermal reactor (CTR). Besides, the energy consumption was 70% more in CTR (500 W) in comparison with THUVRR (150 W); thus, demonstrating markedly superior energy-efficiency vis-à-vis appreciable improvement in FS yield in THUVRR over CTR. Overall sustainability of the process analyzed by LCA proved the approach to be energy-saving and environmentally benign and is expected to be applicable to similar lignocellulosic agro-wastes.

Abstract
In a sustained search for novel and effective antioxidants, a potential therapeutic leads against renal, and neurological disorders. Amongst the heterocycles, pyrazole and their derivatives have been extensively studied for their biological potencies, particularly to a larger extent for their antioxidant properties. Although many of pyrazole derivatives displayed antioxidant activities, still there is a need of developing efficient protocol for their synthesis, involving ecofriendly conditions, molecules of greater antioxidant efficacy and lesser toxicity, etc. In this context, the current study presents an amberlyst-15 catalysed efficient synthesis of 2-pyrazoline derivatives, 5(a-g) via (3 + 2) annulation of chalcones with phenylhydrazines. Structure proofs of new pyrazoles offered by spectral studies, and the molecular structure of compound 5d of the series by crystallographic studies, which revealed an intra molecular hydrogen bond interactions (C–H⋯N type), and stabilization by C–H...π and π---π molecular interactions. Of the series, compounds 5g and 5h show excellent DPPH (IC50 = 0.245 ± 0.01, and 0.284 ± 0.02 μM); and hydroxyl (IC50 = 0.905 ± 0.01, and 0.892 ± 0.01μM) radical scavenging activities comparable with respective controls, ascorbic acid (IC50 = 0.483 ± 0.01μM) and BHA (IC50 = 1.739 ± 0.01μM). The molecular docking and ADME/Tox studies indicate that, these compounds have good antioxidant activity through π-π stacking with Catalase via Try337 and Phe140, and therefore, might be lead antioxidants for further study.

Abstract
In this work, acid-catalyzed conversion of cellulose into levulinic acid in a biphasic solvent system was developed. Compared to a series of catalysts investigated in this study, the Amberlyst-15 as a more efficient acid catalyst was used in the hydrolysis of cellulose and further dehydration of derived intermediates into levulinic acid. Besides, the mechanism of biphasic solvent system in the conversion of cellulose was studied in detail, and the results showed biphasic solvent system can promote the conversion of cellulose and suppress the polymerization of the by-products (such as lactic acid).The reaction conditions, such as temperature, time, and catalyst loading were changed to investigate the effect on the yield of levulinic acid. The results indicated that an appealing LA yield of 59.24% was achieved at 200°C and 180 min with a 2:1 ratio of Amberlyst-15 catalyst and cellulose in GVL/H2O under N2 pressure. The influence of different amounts of NaCl addition to this reaction was also investigated. This study provides an economical and environmental-friendly method for the acid-catalyzed conversion of cellulose and high yield of the value-added chemical.

Abstract
One-pot conversion of alginic acid, which was derived from brown algae, to furfural was investigated using various solid acid catalysts. Among the solid acid catalysts tested, Amberlyst-15 showed the highest activity in furfural production in aqueous media. When the effect of reaction media was examined by applying various organic solvent mixtures, it was found that γ-butyrolactone/water co-solvent system was selected as the most appropriate system for the reaction. Maximum furfural yield of 32.2% was obtained using Amberlyst-15 in the γ-butyrolactone/H2O at 210 °C for 20 min. Catalyst showed gradual deactivation behavior as the reaction proceeded, although the catalyst recovered its activity upon the simple treatment with sulfuric acid. N2 adsorption-desorption experiments, Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), back titration, and CHNS analysis were applied to investigate the physicochemical property of post-reaction samples, confirming that the leaching of the active sulfonic acid group and decrease in acid density was the major cause of deactivation.
