Droplet Condensation On Polymer Surfaces: A Review, İkri̇me Orkan Uçar, Hüsnü Yildirim Erbi̇l

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Dropwise condensation on substrates is an important topic of interest because it plays a crucial role in many scientific applications such as heat transfer, water harvesting from the humid atmosphere, and polymer templating. We focused on droplet condensation on polymer surfaces and briefly summarized the drop condensation studies reported in the last 2 decades and their potential applications. The main topics discussed in this review are water harvesting from dew using radiative cooling; using surfaces synthesized by bio-inspiration; experimental, theoretical, and simulation studies on the growth of breath figures; drop condensation on superhydrophobic surfaces and on self-assembled monolayers; and hexagonal …

Palladium-Edta And Palladium-Edteh_4 Catalyzed Heck Coupling Reactions In Pure Water, Süleyman Gülcemal, Beki̇r Çeti̇nkaya Jan 2013

Palladium-Edta And Palladium-Edteh_4 Catalyzed Heck Coupling Reactions In Pure Water, Süleyman Gülcemal, Beki̇r Çeti̇nkaya

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Palladium-catalyzed Heck coupling reactions of styrene with bromoarene derivatives are carried out under aerobic conditions in water using water-soluble N,N,N',N'-tetrakis(2-hydroxyethyl)ethylenediamine (EdteH_4) and ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid disodium salt (Na_2EDTA) as ligands. The effect of different bases, catalyst loading, and additives is also monitored. The olefination of bromoarenes with styrene affords the desired products in high yields. The Na_2PdCl_4-Na_2EDTA precatalyst system is also used for the preparative scale (50.0 mmol) synthesis of 4-acetyl-trans-stilbene and 4-styrylbenzaldehyde without a noticeable decrease in the activity. Recycling studies on the Na_2PdCl_4 - Na_2EDTA precatalyst system are also tested in the coupling of 4-bromoacetophenone with styrene.


Molecular Mechanism Of Diels--Alder Reaction Between (E)-3,3,3-Trichloro-1-Nitropropene And Cyclopentadiene: B3lyp/6-31g(D) Computational Study, Radomir Jasinski, Andrzej Baranski Jan 2013

Molecular Mechanism Of Diels--Alder Reaction Between (E)-3,3,3-Trichloro-1-Nitropropene And Cyclopentadiene: B3lyp/6-31g(D) Computational Study, Radomir Jasinski, Andrzej Baranski

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Analysis of reactivity indexes supports the polar character of the reaction between (E)-3,3,3-trichloro-1-nitropropene and cyclopentadiene. This is confirmed by the analysis of electronic properties of transition complexes involved in the reaction paths using the B3LYP/6-31G(d) algorithm. The transition state's asymmetry is large, but it is insufficient to provoke a zwitterionic reaction mechanism. Attempts to find a heterocyclic intermediate 7 in the reaction path ultimately leading to 5-endo-nitro-6-exo-trichloromethylnorbornene 3 have been unsuccessful.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A series of degradable films was prepared, and 2 formulas of polyethylene (PE) films with the highest degradable performance were experimentally determined. These films contained 3.43% and 0.44% stearate, and were denoted as PE-3 and PE-4, respectively. Their biodegradability was studied in a laboratory-controlled composting test using ordinary PE film (OPEF) as a control. Contrast composting experiments indicated that the biodegradability of untreated samples was very low, and that the biodegradation rates of PE films after natural aging were significantly higher. FT-IR analysis showed that OPEF changed little after the composting experiment, and that PE-3 and PE-4 showed a carbonyl …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A short and easy route is described for 6,8-disubstituted derivatives of quinoline and 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoli- ne from 6,8-dibromoquinolines 2 and 7 by various substitution reactions. While copper-promoted substitution of 6,8-dibromide 2 produced monomethoxides 3 and 4, a prolonged reaction time mainly afforded dimethoxide 6 instead of 5, whose aromatization with DDQ and substitution reaction of dibromide 7 with NaOMe in the presence of CuI also gave rise to dimethoxide 6. Several 6,8-disubstituted quinolines were obtained by treatment of 6,8-dibromoquinoline (7) with n-BuLi followed by trapping with an electrophile [Si(Me)_3Cl, S_2(Me)_2, and DMF]. Furthermore, 7 was also converted to mono and dicyano …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Pb ions can react sensitively with dibromo-p-methylsulfonazo (DMSA) to form a blue complex, whose absorption is maximal at 630 nm. By means of the light-absorption ratio variation approach (LARVA), the direct determination of Pb was developed in 0.3 M nitric acid and plots of \Delta A_r^{-1} vs. c_{Pb}^{-1} are linear where \Delta A_r is the light-absorption ratio variation and c_{Pb} Pb(II) concentration is between 0 and 5.0 mg/L. The limit of detection (3\sigma) of Pb(II) is only 0.02 mg/L. This method was applied to direct analysis of natural water with satisfactory results.
