UoZ‑8–Catalyzed Synthesis of an Azo‑Chalcone With Microwave Acceleration: Structure Confirmation, DFT Descriptors, and PASS‑Predicted Bioactivity

A Zn‐based metal–organic framework, UoZ‐8, was applied as a heterogeneous catalyst for the synthesis of an azo‐chalcone through Claisen–Schmidt condensation under conventional thermal and microwave‐assisted conditions. Microwave irradiation provided a cleaner and more efficient route than the conventional method, red...

Pollution assessment and human health risk from falling dust in Duhok City, Iraq

Meteorological controls on seasonal enrichment, contamination patterns, and environmental implications of atmospheric dust-fall elements in Zakho City, northern Iraq.

Atmospheric dust fall can act as a sink and secondary source of potentially toxic elements in semi-arid urban environments, yet seasonal dust-bound metal data remain limited for northern Iraq. This study assessed the elemental composition, enrichment status, ecological risk, and screening-level inhalation health risk o...
