^1h Nmr Studies Of Some Imidazole Ligands Coordinated To Co(Iii), Kosrow Zamani, Akbar Mobinikhaledi, Naser Foroughifar, Khalil Faghihi, Vahid Mahdavi Jan 2003

^1h Nmr Studies Of Some Imidazole Ligands Coordinated To Co(Iii), Kosrow Zamani, Akbar Mobinikhaledi, Naser Foroughifar, Khalil Faghihi, Vahid Mahdavi

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Chemical shifts for proton signals of an imidazole ring coordinated to Co(III) move downfield as the total complex charge increases. However, the C_{(2) - H} chemical shift of the imidazole ring in cis-[Co(en)_{2}(N-mIm) OPO_{3}H]°, which has no charge compared to those of cis-[Co(en)_{2}(N-mIm) OPO_{3}H]^{+} and cis}-[Co(en)_{2}(N-mIm) OPO_{3}H_{2}]^{2 +} , moves downfield. These unexpected phenomena could be attributed to an intramolecular interaction between the phosphate anion group and C_{(2) - H} of the imidazole ligand.

Conductimetric And Potentiometric Investigation Of Effects Of Solvents And Titrant On Formation Of Homoconjugates, Esi̇n Canel, Mustafa Taşteki̇n, Orhan Atakol, Esma Kiliç Jan 2003

Conductimetric And Potentiometric Investigation Of Effects Of Solvents And Titrant On Formation Of Homoconjugates, Esi̇n Canel, Mustafa Taşteki̇n, Orhan Atakol, Esma Kiliç

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Trichloro-, tribromo- and trifluoro- acetic acids were both conductimetrically and potentiometrically titrated in acetonitrile and 2-propanol media. The titrations were carried out at 25°C under nitrogen atmosphere and titrants used were the solutions of triethyl, di-n-butyl and n-butyl amines prepared in the same solvents. Whether these acids gave a homoconjugation reaction during titration was investigated by the use of conductimetric and potentiometric titration curves. In acetonitrile media trichloro- and tribromo-acetic acids decomposed to give chloroform and carbon dioxide, and bromoform and carbon dioxide respectively. It was observed that the acid concentration and the type of titrant used had no effect …

Kinetics Of Polymerization Of 2-Hydroxyethylmethacrylate Initiated By A Titanium(Iii)-Dimethylglyoxime Redox System, Kalappa Prashantha, K. V. Kumar Pai, M. Puttegowda Yashoda, B. Sheena Sherigara

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The polymerization of 2-hydroxyethylmethacrylate (HEMA) initiated by the redox system titanium(III)-dimethyl glyoxime (DMG) was studied in dimethyl formamide (DMF)-water (80:20 v/v) medium in the temperature range 290-310 K. The rate of polymerization (R_{p}) was investigated at various concentrations of reductant, oxidant, sulfuric acid, and monomer. Cyclic voltametric sensing of dimethylglyoxime under the kinetic conditions demonstrated its reduction behavior. From the obtained results, it was inferred that the polymerization reaction was initiated by an organic free radical arising from the titanium(III)-dimethylglyoxime redox system. Chain termination of the polymer took place predominantly by mutual coupling and small fraction by chain transfer mechanism …

Purification And Partial Characterization Of Catalase From Chicken Erythrocytes And The Effect Of Various Inhibitors On Enzyme Activity, Tüli̇n Aydemi̇r, Kevser Kuru

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Catalase plays a major role in the protection of tissues from the toxic effects of H_{2}O_{2} and partially reduced oxygen species. A nearly 136-fold enzyme purification was obtained from chicken erythrocyte by acetone precipitation, ethanol-chloroform treatment, CM-cellulose and Sephadex G-200 chromatography. The specific activity of purified enzyme was 42,556 U/mg. The molecular weight of the native chicken erythrocyte catalase was estimated at 240 kDa by gel filtration. SDS-gel electrophoresis results indicated that chicken erythrocyte catalase consists of four apparently identical subunits, with a molecular weight of around 57.5 kDa.

Electrochemical Behaviour Of Thymolphthalein, Mustafa Uçar, Necati̇ Menek

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The polarographic and voltammetric behaviour of thymolphthalein in ethanol-water (1/5 v/v) was studied using various electrochemical techniques. The reduction of thymolphthalein on a mercury drop electrode was investigated. The adsorption effect on the electrode surface was observed. The rate constants for the electron transfer steps were determined by and without taking adsorption into occount using the Laviron technique and Nicholson technique respectively. The diffusion coefficients were calculated from the cyclic voltammetric data using the method developed by Garrido.

Studies On The Mechanism Of Base-Catalyzed Decomposition Of Bicyclic Endoperoxides, Ebru Mete, Ramazan Altundaş, Hasan Seçen, Meti̇n Balci Jan 2003

Studies On The Mechanism Of Base-Catalyzed Decomposition Of Bicyclic Endoperoxides, Ebru Mete, Ramazan Altundaş, Hasan Seçen, Meti̇n Balci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Kinetic studies were performed to clarify the Kornblum-Delamare reaction mechanism of bicyclic endoperoxides. Ascaridol and 1,4-diphenyl-2,3-dioxa-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene, not having \alpha -protons, did not provide any reaction with bases. Reaction with different bases has revealed that reaction rates for the base-catalyzed decomposition of 2,3-dioxa-bicyclo[2.2.2]oct-5-ene depend strongly on the base strength. The stronger the base used, the faster the conversion rate. Reaction rate values k of endoperoxides with different skeletons were also studied with NEt_{3}. It has been noted that the strength of the base plays the dominant role in determining the rate of the reactions.

Evaluation Of Thermal Decomposition Kinetics Of Borax Pentahydrate Using Genetic Algorithm Method By Isothermal Analysis, Ömer Şahi̇n, A. Nusret Bulutcu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The thermal calcination of borax pentahydrate was investigated for both dehydration and decomposition steps at temperatures between 392 and 573 K in a controlled fluidized bed drier. The best kinetic parameters (reaction rate constants, reaction order and equilibrium values) of both steps were determined by the genetic algorithm (GA) method for each calcination temperature in respect of relative standard deviation. The values of the kinetic parameters showed that the dehydration step of borax pentahydrate was controlled by a homogeneous reaction of the order of about 2/3 whereas the decomposition step was controlled by a reaction order of about 1.

Flow Injection Amperometric Determination Of Ascorbic Acid Using A Photoelectrochemical Reaction After Immobilization Of Methylene Blue On Muscovite, Yusuf Di̇lgi̇n, Zekerya Dursun, Gürel Ni̇şli̇

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The photoelectrochemical determination of ascorbic acid (AA) was studied based on the photochemical reduction of methylene blue (MB) in 0.1 M phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). MB was used as a redox mediator for the modification of a carbon paste electrode (CPE) due to its facile reducible-oxidizible behaviour. Muscovite, which has a layered structure, was found to be a good and stable supporting material for the immobilization of MB by an ion exchange reaction. The dye is strongly retained and not easily leached from the matrix. MB was reduced to nearly quasi-reversible at the modified carbon paste electrode (MCPE). The oxidation …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The bromination of 1-cyclopent-1-en-1-ylbenzene (4) in different solvents and at different temperatures was accompanied by the evolution of hydrogen bromide and yielded 1-(5-bromocyclopent-1-en-1-yl)benzene (8). Further bromination of 8 gave exclusively 2R(S),5R(S)-1-(1,2,5-tribromocyclopentyl)benzene (11). The experimental results were compared with the theoretical ones based on semi-empirical (MM+ and AM1), Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT). The formation of 11 was explained by the formation of a weakly bridged bromoniun ion of type 9.

Atomic Absorption And Spectrophotometeric Determinations Of Salicylhydroxamic Acid In Its Pure And Pharmaceutical Dosage Forms, Alaaeldin Abdelaziz Salem, Mohamed Mohamed Omar

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A new method for the indirect determination of salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM) using atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) was proposed. The method is based on precipitating the ion associate complex of SHAM with [Cu (NH_{3})_{4}]^{2+}. The excess, unreacted, Cu^{2+} ions were determined using AAS. Another spectrophotometric method based on measuring the absorbance of the formed [Cu (NH_{3})_{4}]-SHAM complex in dioxane was proposed. The green color of the complex formed was measured at 330 nm. The two methods were successfully used for determining SHAM in its pure and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Using AAS, the drug was determined over a concentration range of 3.06 …
