Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Electrochemical properties of disulfiram, representative of highly significant bioactive compounds, were studied with a cyclic renewable silver amalgam film electrode (Hg(Ag)FE) using square wave cathodic stripping voltammetry (SWCSV). The influence of various factors such as pH, buffer concentration, buffer composition, and SWCSV parameters on current response was investigated. The optimum results in terms of signal shape and intensity were recorded in Britton--Robinson buffer (pH 7.5) at -0.5 V versus Ag/AgCl/3 mol L$^{-1}$ KCl. An elaborated electroanalytical procedure was used to determine disulfiram at the Hg(Ag)FE in the concentration range from 0.05 to 5.00 $\mu $M. Precision, repeatability, and accuracy of …

Calix[4]Pyrroles With Bulky Substituents And Their Anion Binding Studies, Ahmet Akar, Abdullah Aydogan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Calix[4]pyrrole derivatives with bulky substituents at their meso-positions were synthesized via mixed condensation of pyrrole with cyclohexanone and acetophenone derivatives. Anion binding studies, carried out by isothermal titration calorimetry in 1,2-dichloroethane with Cl$^{-}$ and CH$_{3}$CO$_{2}^{-}$ anions in the form of their tetrabutylammonium salts, revealed that these new calix[4]pyrrole derivatives can bind the aforementioned anions as effectively as the unsubstituted ''parent'' system, octamethylcalix[4]pyrrole (1). Structural characterizations of new calix[4]pyrroles were carried out by using $^{1}$H and $^{13}$C NMR spectroscopy corroborated with mass spectrometry.

Adsorption Isotherm Modeling Of Carbendazim And Flumetsulam Onto Homoionic-Montmorillonite Clays: Comparison Of Linear And Nonlinear Models, Yassine El Maataoui̇, Mohamadine El M'Rabet, Abdelkrim Maaroufi, Hassan Oudda, Abdelmalek Dahchour

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

This study deals with the adsorption of two pesticides, carbendazim and flumetsulam, from aqueous solutions onto four homoionic-montmorillonite clays (Ag$^{+}$, Zn$^{2+}$, Cu$^{2+}$, and H$^{+})$. Equilibrium adsorption isotherm data were analyzed using Freundlich, Dubinin-Radushkevich, and Temkin isotherms. Linear and nonlinear fitting methods were compared to determine the best-fitting isotherms for the experimental data. Three error analysis methods were used to evaluate the data for each method: the coefficient of determination (R$^{2})$, sum of squared errors (SSE), and chi-square test ($\chi^{2})$. Equilibrium adsorption isotherms exhibited that the carbendazim adsorption mainly involved cation exchange with homoionic-montmorillonite adsorbents. However, for flumetsulam, the main mechanisms …

The Cl replacement reactions of 4-fluorobenzyl(N/O)spirocyclotriphosphazene (2) with excess monoamines led to the formation of 4-fluorobenzylspiro(N/O)tetraaminocyclotriphosphazenes (2a-2d). The partly substituted \textbf{dispiro 3b and dispiro 3c and fully substituted trispirocyclotriphosphazenes (trans 4a, cis 4c, 4d, and 4e) were obtained, respectively, from the reactions of 2 with one equimolar and two equimolar amounts of diamines, aminoalcohol, and diols. Although efforts were made for the separation of the cis/trans and optical isomers of the dispiro phosphazenes, only one set of diastereomers (RR/RS or SS/SR) of dispiro 3b and dispiro 3c was isolated, respectively. The $^{31}$P NMR spectral data of the other dispiro phosphazenes …

Understanding Of Phenolic Compound Retention Mechanisms On Pes-Uf Membrane, Amine Mnif, Meral Mouelhi, Bechir Hamrouni

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Ultrafiltration (UF) is investigated as a possible alternative to remove organic compounds from aqueous synthetic solution. This paper presents a comprehensive study towards a better understanding of phenolic compound retention mechanisms during UF processes. Thus, removal of phenol and resorcinol was studied using a polyethersulfone ultrafiltration (PES-UF) membrane. The influence of main operating conditions (feed concentration, transmembrane pressure, and pH) on the retention was evaluated. Membrane--solute interactions were found to play an important role during the process, suggesting the adsorption of the target compounds on the PES-UF membrane.

Highly Selective Schiff Base Derivatives For Colorimetric Detection Of Al$^{3+}$, Zi̇ya Aydin, Mustafa Keleş

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Schiff base derivatives NBAR and NSAR were developed for selective detection of Al$^{3+}$ in aqueous solution. UV-vis spectroscopic studies revealed that NBAR and NSAR showed marked sensitivity and selectivity to Al$^{3+}$ in acetonitrile (ACN)/water (v/v, 1:1, pH 6.80). The NBAR and NSAR receptors bound Al$^{3+}$ in a 2:1 stoichiometry with apparent binding constants 4.09 $\times $ 10$^{11}$ M$^{-2}$ and 1.65 $\times $ 10$^{12}$ M$^{-2}$, respectively. They also displayed distinct changes in color upon the alteration of free Al$^{3+}$ levels in solution with reversible responses and showed little interference with other metal ions.

Investigation Of Solvent Effect On Photophysical Properties Of Some Sulfonamides Derivatives, Ebru Bozkurt, Hali̇se İnci̇ Gül, Mehtap Tuğrak

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The photophysical properties of new sulfonamides synthesized recently were investigated in different solvents. Shifts in the absorption and fluorescence spectra of both compounds (S10 and S11) occurred depending on the solvents used. Ground and excited state dipole moments of the molecules were calculated using the spectral shifts of the compounds in different solvents and polarity function of solvents, respectively. They were 1.32 and 1.46 D for S10 and 1.71 and 4.89 D for S11. These results suggested that the excited state dipole moments are greater than those in ground state for both molecules. This means that the dyes were more …

In the current research, the sulfonated metal-organic framework loaded on iron oxide nanoparticles, Fe$_{3}$O$_{4}$@MIL-100(Fe)-OSO$_{3}$H, has been synthesized and utilized as a Fenton-like catalyst for the decolorization of aqueous solutions containing methyl orange (MO) dye as a model organic pollutant. The morphology and structure of the catalyst were characterized by X-ray powder diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and UV-Vis diffuse reflectance spectroscopy. The effects of various parameters on MO degradation were investigated and the optimum conditions for MO degradation were found to be an initial concentration of MO of 100 mg/L, initial concentration of …

A facile route was used for the fabrication of NdFeO$_{3}$ (NF) perovskite. The orthorhombic structure of single phase nanocrystalline NdFeO$_{3}$ perovskite was confirmed by different characterization techniques: XRD, FTIR, TEM, BET, SEM, and EDAX. The nanoperovskite was successfully used as a sensor component with a carbon paste electrode (CpE) for the determination of ketotifen in pharmaceutical formulations. Ketotifen, an antiallergic drug, is utilized for the treatment of asthma attacks, rhinitis, skin allergies, and anaphylaxis. Sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) was employed in a surface assembly mode to improve the sensitivity of the sensor response. The proposed sensor, NdFeO$_{3}$ in situ modified …

Decolorization Of Reactive Orange 16 Via Ferrate(Vi) Oxidation Assisted By Sonication, Serkan Şahi̇nkaya Jan 2017

Decolorization Of Reactive Orange 16 Via Ferrate(Vi) Oxidation Assisted By Sonication, Serkan Şahi̇nkaya

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The decolorization of azo dye C.I. reactive orange 16 (RO 16) via ferrate(VI) and sono-ferrate(VI) methods, which is the combination of the ferrate(VI) oxidation method with sonication, has been achieved in the present study. The influences of some important operating parameters, which are the initial pH, the concentration of potassium ferrate(VI) (K$_{2}$FeO$_{4})$ and the RO 16 dye, and ultrasonic density (for only the sono-ferrate(VI) method), on the color removal have been investigated. The optimum conditions have been determined as pH = 7 and [K$_{2}$FeO$_{4}$] = 50 mg L$^{-1}$ for the individual ferrate(VI) oxidation method and pH = 7 and [K$_{2}$FeO$_{4}$] …
