Modification Of Biomass-Derived Activated Carbon With Magnetic $\Alpha $-Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$ Nanoparticles For Co$_{2}$ And Ch$_{4}$ Adsorption, Çi̇sem Kirbiyik
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Magnetic and nonmagnetic activated carbons (ACs) were successfully prepared by using AC obtained from spent coffee grounds (SCGs) for use in CO$_{2}$ and CH$_{4}$ capture. SCGs were activated by chemical activation to produce ACs and a magnetic $\alpha $-Fe$_{2}$O$_{3}$/AC composite was prepared by coprecipitation method from the ACs produced. Magnetic and nonmagnetic samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and energy dispersive X-ray spectrometry (EDX) techniques. The textural properties of samples were determined by nitrogen adsorption-desorption using the Brunauer--Emmett--Teller (BET) and Barrett--Joyner--Halenda (BJH) methods.

The (E)-2-(2-hydroxystyryl)quinolin-8-ol (abbreviated as HSQ) molecule was synthesized and characterized. The ESIPT, solvatochromism properties, electronic structure, and ground and excited electric dipole moments of this molecule were measured using absorption and fluorescence spectra recorded in 13 different solvents. Its electronic structure via electronic transitions was investigated to find the quantitative values of solvatochromism properties by LSER calculations. The ESIPT mechanism was clarified; ground and excited dipole moments were determined using solvatochromic shift methods. The DFT (B3LYP)/6-311$++$G(d,p) method and basis set with potential energy surface (PES) calculations of proton transfer were used to explain the ESIPT mechanism. NBO analysis, NLO properties, …
Why Protein Conformers In Molecular Dynamics Simulations Differ From Their Crystal Structures: A Thermodynamic Insight, Fi̇li̇ppo Pullara, Mao Wenzhi, Mert Gür
Why Protein Conformers In Molecular Dynamics Simulations Differ From Their Crystal Structures: A Thermodynamic Insight, Fi̇li̇ppo Pullara, Mao Wenzhi, Mert Gür
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Conformers generally deviate structurally from their starting X-ray crystal structures early in molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Studies have recognized such structural differences and attempted to provide an explanation for and justify the necessity of MD equilibrations. However, a detailed explanation based on fundamental physics and validation on a large ensemble of protein structures is still missing. Here we provide the first thermodynamic insights into the radically different thermodynamic conditions of crystallization solutions and conventional MD simulations. Crystallization solution conditions can lead to nonphysiologically high ion concentrations, low temperatures, and crystal packing with strong specific protein--protein interactions, not present under physiological …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Low-cost activated carbon (AC) samples obtained from waste coffee grounds were used for CO$_{2}$ and CH$_{4}$ adsorption. ACs were prepared by chemical activation and carbonized at three different temperatures. AC carbonized at 800 $^{\circ}$C showed a relatively high surface area (582.92 m$^{2}$ g$^{-1})$ and high adsorption capacities of 2.6 mmol g$^{-1}$ and 1.1 mmol g$^{-1}$ at 25 $^{\circ}$C for CO$_{2}$ and CH$_{4}$, respectively. Adsorbent samples were prepared by loading of Fe$^{3+}$ metal ions onto ACs and their adsorption capacities were compared with those of nonloaded ACs. As expected, the loading of Fe$^{3+}$ metal ions increased the adsorption capacities at all …

Design, Synthesis, And Evaluation Of The Antimycobacterial Activity Of 3-Mercapto-1,2,4-Triazole--Pyrrole Hybrids, Gheorghe Roman, Andra-Cristina Bostanaru, Valentin Nastasa, Mihai Mares
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A series of 3-mercapto-1,2,4-triazole--pyrrole hybrids was designed as antimycobacterial agents by employing 5-(4-(1$H$-pyrrol-1-yl)phenyl)-4$H$-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol as the scaffold onto which several types of moieties were introduced in the triazole ring at N-4 and N-2 and as substituents of the mercapto function. The aforementioned moieties are an allyl or a phenyl moiety at N-4; an aminomethyl group at N-2; or methyl, substituted benzyl, ethoxycarbonylmethyl, or substituted phenacyl at sulfur. Investigation of the compounds in the resulting library as growth inhibitors of Mycobacterium smegmatis showed that their minimum inhibitory concentration was higher than 64 mg/L.
A Case Study Of Antiaromaticity: Carbomethoxy Cyclopropenyl Anion, Zi̇kri̇ Altun, Erdi̇ Ata Bleda, Carl Trindle
A Case Study Of Antiaromaticity: Carbomethoxy Cyclopropenyl Anion, Zi̇kri̇ Altun, Erdi̇ Ata Bleda, Carl Trindle
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The simplest ideas of antiaromaticity refer to regular monocyclic systems and the eigenfunctions of the H\"{u}ckel Hamiltonian for 4n $\pi $ electrons in such systems. The antiaromaticity is expressed in the energy penalty for such idealized systems relative to the H\"{u}ckel energy for 2n noninteracting $\pi $ pairs. Observed systems seldom achieve the regular planar geometry assumed in this picture, owing to their ability to ease the antiaromaticity penalty by departures from the regular geometry and also by export of the 4n $\pi $ electrons' charge to substituents. In this report we estimate numerical values for the stabilization derived from …

Synthesis And Antitumor Activities Of 2-(Piperidin-4-Yl)-Thiazole-4-Carboxamides Analogues Of Tubulysins, Xiangfu Peng, Mingsha Shao, Shuchao Ma, Lei Yao
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
}Tubulysins are a family of natural products that exhibit potent antitumor activities, which have attracted much attention from synthetic and medicinal chemists. Previous attempts to aromatize the Tuv part of tubulysin analogues led to a loss in antitumor activity, which suggested that the Ile and Tuv fragments of these analogues were adopting different conformations than the natural products. In this study, a series of 2-(piperidin-4-yl)-thiazole-4-carboxamides have been prepared to investigate whether an intramolecular H-bond between key NH and OH groups is responsible for the conformational control. The antitumor activities of these analogues have been screened using MDA-MB-231-breast, Siha-cervical, MCF7-breast, and …

Effect Of Crosslinking Patterns On The Properties Of Conjugated Microporous Polymers, Hakan Bi̇ldi̇ri̇r
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Syntheses and detailed spectroscopic characterizations of two similar conjugated microporous polymers formed by A4 $+$ B2 and A2 $+$ B3 type functional monomers via Sonogashira--Hagihara polycondensation are presented in this report. The two porous polymeric networks possess mono-, di-, and tri- (1-, 1,4-, and 1,3,5-, respectively) substituted benzene rings and fused thiophenic moieties (dithienothiophenes). Because of the different conjugation patterns, their solid state nuclear magnetic resonance, infrared, and ultraviolet/visible light absorption analyses indicated significant differences. Besides the discussions on the porous properties of the obtained polymeric networks, the presented spectroscopic investigations can be useful for identifying the structure-property relationship of …

A Microwave-Assisted Highly Stereoselective One-Pot Wittig Reaction Under Solvent-Free Conditions, Kalyani Rajkumari, Bittu Lama, Lalthazuala Rokhum
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
We report a novel microwave-assisted two-step, one-pot protocol for the synthesis of olefins (alkenes) via Wittig reaction. The reaction was carried out under solvent-free conditions using basic alumina both as a heterogeneous catalyst and a solid support. Varieties of aromatic aldehydes were converted into their corresponding olefins within 30-50 min with good to excellent yields. An excellent predominance of E-isomers over Z-isomers (up to 100% E-selectivity) for all the olefin products was observed. This showed the attractive stereocontrol of our reported protocol. In addition, owing to the solid-state nature of the reactions, our procedure prevented the need for tedious aqueous …

Curcuminoids, reported to have important biological properties, such as antioxidant, anti-Alzheimer, and antidiabetic properties, comprise curcumin (CRM; 1,7-bis [4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl]-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione) and its derivatives demethoxycurcumin (DMC; (E,6E)-1-(3,4-dimethoxy-cyclohexyl)-7-(3,4-dimethoxyphenyl)hepta-1,6-diene-3,5-dione) and bisdemethoxycurcumin (BDMC; 1,7-bis[4-hydroxyphenyl]-1,6-heptadiene-3,5-dione). Their electrochemical oxidations are thoroughly explored by applying cyclic and differential pulse voltammetric techniques. The dependence of current intensities and potentials on pH, concentration, scan rate, and nature of the buffer was investigated. The outcome is supported by density functional theory computations indicating the transfer of 4-e$^{-}$/H$^{+}$, 6-e$^{-}$/H$^{+}$, and 8-e$^{-}$/H$^{+}$ couples involved in the oxidation mechanisms of CRM, DMC, and BDMC, respectively, leading to the formation of the same oxidized product.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A phthalocyanine (Pc) initiator, tetrakis(2-bromopropyloxyester)ethylthiophthalocyaninatozinc(II) (ZnPc-Br), was prepared and successfully applied to atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) of methyl methacrylate (MMA) for the first time. Bromine end groups of the synthesized Pc took part in the initiation of the MMA chain growth. Polymerization was demonstrated by monomodal molecular weight distribution of the synthesized polymers and their increasing molecular weight behavior with reaction time. UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence, and transmittance properties of the polymers were also examined. The results indicate that the ZnPc-Br-based initiator is potentially applicable in ATRP applied to MMA in order to obtain and develop functional acrylic materials.

Scutellaria salviifolia Benth. is an endemic species growing in Turkey that belongs to the family Lamiaceae. As a result of a phytochemical study on the aerial parts of S. salviifolia Benth., two new and 10 known compounds were isolated from the aqueous fraction of methanolic extract. The new compounds are methyl-$\alpha $-pyrone glucosides, 3,4-dihydroxy-6-methylpyran-2-one 3-$O$-$\beta $-glucopyranoside (=scusalvioside A, 1), and 3,4-dihydroxy-6-methylpyran-2-one 3-$O$-$\beta $-(6$'$-$O$-$E$-caffeoyl) glucopyranoside (=scusalvioside B, 2) with new skeletal structures. Along with them, 3 phloroglucinol glucosides [phlorin (3), tadehaginoside (4), and 6$^{\prime \prime} $-$O$-$Z$-$p$-coumaroyl phloroglucinol-1-$O$-$\beta $-glucopyranoside (5)], 6 flavonoids [apigenin (6), apigenin 5-$O$-$\beta $-glucopyranoside (7), isoschaftoside (8), luteolin 7-$O$-$\beta …

Herein, we proposed several mechanistic scenarios for activation of small molecules (NH$_{3}$, CO$_{2}$, CS$_{2}$, H$_{2}$, CH$_{4}$, N$_{2}$, and N$_{2}$O) by a disilicon analogue of a vinyl anion (1H) using density functional theory (DFT) calculations. The DFT results established that all the possible reactions to yield a variety of potential products have an exergonic nature except for the activation of N$_{2}$ with the obtained overall energy of $\Delta $G = 33.6 kcal mol$^{-1}$. Moreover, the highest exergonic character was $\Delta $G = $-$95.8 kcal mol$^{-1}$ for N$_{2}$O. Therefore, the findings reveal that 1H can be considered a suitable candidate for activation …
