Influence Of Reaction Parameters On The Synthesis Of Surfactant-Assisted Tin Oxide Nanoparticles, Muhammad Akhyar Farrukh, Prisca Tan, Rohana Adnan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Tin oxide nanoparticles were synthesized via hydrothermal method using a non-ionic surfactant, oleyl amine (OLM), in the presence of urea. The reactions were carried out at different calcination temperatures and varying concentrations of surfactant and urea. The effect of these reaction parameters on the particles' size, distribution, surface area, and the average pore diameter were investigated using X-ray diffraction analysis, transmission electron microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray analysis, thermogravimetric analysis, Brunauer-Emmett-Teller method, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Larger tin oxide nanoparticles were obtained with higher concentrations of urea. At the optimum experimental conditions, tin oxide nanoparticles with mean …

Simultaneous Determination Of Cr(Iii) And Cr(Vi) Using Differential Pulse Polarography And Application To Gerede River, Olcay Şendi̇l, Nabeel Mohammed, Güler Somer Jan 2012

Simultaneous Determination Of Cr(Iii) And Cr(Vi) Using Differential Pulse Polarography And Application To Gerede River, Olcay Şendi̇l, Nabeel Mohammed, Güler Somer

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Determination of Cr(III) in the presence of Cr(VI) from one polarogram is not easy. No such procedure was found in the literature. In polarographic studies Cr(III) had a peak only in acidic medium, while Cr(VI) had either 1 or 2 peaks in both acidic and basic solutions. In solutions that contain these 2 ions, the peak obtained in acidic medium for Cr(III) will be the sum of both ions. Thus, Cr(III) cannot be determined directly from one polarogram. In this work, a new and simple polarographic method is established for the determination of Cr(III) and Cr(VI) by using only one …

Competitive Hydrogen Bonding In Aspirin-Aspirin And Aspirin-Leucine Interactions, Zeynep Yurtsever, Burak Erman, İsmai̇l Ersi̇n Yurtsever

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Aspirin-aspirin and aspirin-leucine interactions are studied by the density functional theory (DFT) and high level ab initio calculations with second order Moller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2). The rotational isomers of aspirin are identified by their relative stability both in gaseous phase and in water using the polarizable continuum method (PCM). Local minima of aspirin monomers in water are found to be all highly populated compared to the gas phase behavior. Homodimers of aspirin form hydrogen bonds with bond energies of 10 kcal/mol. Weak hydrogen bonds utilizing phenyl and methyl groups are also found. The interaction between aspirin and leucine is stronger …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

2-Morpholine-4ylethyl-3H-1,2,4-triazole-3-ones (2a, 2b) were obtained from the condensation between the corresponding ethoxycarbonylhydrazones and 2-morpholinoethanamine. 2a was converted to acetohydrazide (4) via the formation of an ester derivative (3). Treatment of 2a and 2b with several aryl sulfonyl chlorides afforded the corresponding 2-arylsulfonyl-1,2,4-triazole-3-ones (5a-c and 6). The reaction of hydrazide (4) with benzyl iso- and benzyl isothiocyanate produced the corresponding carboxamide (8a) and carbothioamide (8b). The basic treatment of 8b yielded 5-mercapto-4H-1,2,4-triazol-3-yl)methyl]-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-one (10).

Evaluation Of Thermodynamic Parameters Of Cadmium Adsorption On Sand From Temkin Adsorption Isotherm, Abdul Sattar Ali Khan Jan 2012

Evaluation Of Thermodynamic Parameters Of Cadmium Adsorption On Sand From Temkin Adsorption Isotherm, Abdul Sattar Ali Khan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Thermodynamic parameters provide clues for finding the spontaneity of a given process at a given temperature. In the present work, the Temkin adsorption model was applied for evaluation of the thermodynamic parameters of cadmium adsorption studied on sand. The lateral interaction energy parameter was found to be unity, which showed that the heat of adsorption is directly proportional to the fraction of free adsorption sites. The values of \Delta H° and \Delta S° were --4.8 kJ mol^{-1} and 42 J mol^{-1} K^{-1}, respectively. The value of \Delta G° was negative, indicating the spontaneity of cadmium adsorption on sand.

Symmetric, Twinned, And Double-Decker Phthalocyanines Substituted By Trialkylated Pentaerythritol, Muzaffer Köç, Ayşe Gül Gürek, Fabienne Dumoulin, Vefa Ahsen Jan 2012

Symmetric, Twinned, And Double-Decker Phthalocyanines Substituted By Trialkylated Pentaerythritol, Muzaffer Köç, Ayşe Gül Gürek, Fabienne Dumoulin, Vefa Ahsen

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Trialkylated pentaerythritol was chosen as a bulky substituent for a set of 3 free-base phthalocyanines: a symmetric, a twinned, and a double-decker derivative. The bulkiness of this substituent lowered the aggregation of the phthalocyanines. The electronic absorptions were comparatively investigated: the twinned phthalocyanine exhibited a significant near-infrared shifted absorption. The neutral radical Eu(III) complex was oxidized by bromine. These 3 phthalocyanines are promising for use as molecular materials.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

This paper reports absorption-based CO_2 sensing of the pH-active Schiff base 2-[(2-hydroxymethylphenylimino) methyl]-5-bromo-phenol (SB) in an ethyl cellulose (EC) matrix with and without Teflon coating.

Ethyl[4-arylmethyleneamino-3-(4-metylphenyl)-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro- 1H-1,2,4-triazole-1-yl]acetates (3a-e and 10a-d) were obtained starting from 4-amino-2,4-dihydro-3H-1,2,4-triazol-3-ones (1 and 9) in 2 steps. The treatment of 3a-e with NaBH_4 resulted in the formation of 3 kinds of product incorporating carboxcilic acid (4a-c) or alcohol (5a-e) functionality. [4-{[(4-Methoxyphenyl)methylene]amino}- and 4-{[pyridin-4-ylmethylene]amino}-3-(4-methylphenyl)-5-oxo-4,5-dihydro-1H- 1,2,4-triazole-1-yl] acetic acids (6a, 6e) were obtained by the hydrolysis of the corresponding esters (5a-5e). The treatment of 6a with NaBH_4 caused the reduction of only the imine bond; the carboxyl group remained unchanged. Then this carboxylic acid was converted to the corresponding hydrazide (8) in 2 steps by reaction with ethanol and hydrazine hydrate, respectively. The synthesis …

A highly efficient role of Fe_3O_4 nanoparticles as catalyst in this synthesis was shown. By this advantage, several polysubstituted imidazoles as pharmaceutical important molecules can be prepared in high yield and high purity. This method is very easy and rapid for the synthesis of imidazole derivatives. All products were deduced from their IR and NMR spectroscopic data. The Fe_3O_4 …

Solidified floating organic drop microextraction (SFODME) in combination with gas chromatography with an electron capture detector was used for separation/enrichment and determination of 2,5-dichloro-nitrobenzene, 2,3-dichloro-nitrobenzene, and 2,6-dichloro-4-nitroaniline in water samples. The main parameters affecting the performance of SFOME, such as solvent volume, extraction time, stirring rate, extraction temperature, sample volume, nature of the solvent and ionic strength were optimized. Under the optimum experimental conditions, good relative standard deviations of 7.5%, 6.9%, and 9.3% for 7 extractions and determination of 50 ng L^{-1} of 2,5-dichloro-nitrobenzene, 2,3-dichloro-nitrobenzene and 2,6-dichloro-4-nitroaniline were obtained, respectively. Enrichment factors of 1390, 1398, and 1362 and detection limits …

Oxovanadium(IV) complexes having the general formula [VO(L)] were designed and synthesized using vanadyl ion as kinetic template with ligands derived by condensation of \beta-diketones such as acetylacetone, benzoylacetone, thenoyltrifluoroacetone, and dibenzoylmethane with 2-amino-3-hydroxypyridine or 2-aminobenzoic acid or 2-aminonicotinic acid. Tentative structures of the complexes were proposed on the basis of elemental analysis, molar conductance, magnetic moments, and spectral (infrared, electronic and electron spin resonance) data. All the oxovanadium(IV) complexes are 5-coordinated wherein derived ligands act as tetradentate chelating agents.
