The voltammetric behaviour of acetazolamide, the systemic carbonic anhydrase inhibitor, in the presence of some metal ions (Cu(II), Ni(II), and V(V)) were investigated using square-wave and cyclic voltammetry in physiological pH (pH 7.4). Square-wave voltammogram of acetazolamide in the absence of metal ions gave only 1 reduction peak at -1.65 V attributed to a catalytic hydrogen peak. Three reversible peaks at -0.068, -0.262, and -0.434 V were observed for the solutions containing both copper(II) ions and acetazolamide in the SWV. The peak at -0.434 V was attributed to Cu(II)-acetazolamide complex. In the presence of acetazolamide, copper-acetazolamide complex formation was proved …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

New thermally stable photochromic fulgimides and benzimidazole[1,2-a]pyrrolidin-2-one derivatives of furylfulgide and thienylfulgide were prepared and their photochromic properties were investigated. Thermal stabilities of some of the new isomers in an alcoholic solution and in PMMA (poly(methyl methacrylate)) polymer films, and pyrolytic behaviors in inert atmosphere with TGA were compared. The colored form of fulgimide and that of benzimidazole[1,2-a]pyrrolidin- 2-one derivatives showed large bathochromic shifts for visible absorption maximum compared with the colored form of corresponding fulgides. The imides and benzimidazole[1,2-a]pyrrolidin-2-one derivatives of fulgide displayed better thermal stability than corresponding fulgides.

Hydrogen Storage Via Physisorption: The Combined Role Of Adsorption Enthalpy And Entropy, Carlos Otero Arean, Barbara Bonelli, Montserrat Rodriguez Delgado, Edoardo Garrone Jan 2009

Hydrogen Storage Via Physisorption: The Combined Role Of Adsorption Enthalpy And Entropy, Carlos Otero Arean, Barbara Bonelli, Montserrat Rodriguez Delgado, Edoardo Garrone

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Materials capable of cost-effective on-board hydrogen storage and delivery are currently being sought worldwide as a means to facilitate a hydrogen-based energy transition in the transportation sector. Among the solutions proposed, hydrogen storage by physisorption on porous solids constitutes a main avenue of research, and for intelligent design of such materials a detailed knowledge of gas adsorption thermodynamics is of the utmost importance. Analysis of the available data for hydrogen adsorption on alkali and alkaline-earth cation exchanged zeolites clearly shows that standard adsorption enthalpy (\Delta H^0) and entropy (\Delta S^0) are correlated, in the sense that larger \Delta S^0 values …

Dynamic ^1h-Nmr Demonstration Of Anomeric Effect And Structure: Conformational And Configurational Analysis Of N-2-(1,4-Dioxane)-N'-(P-Methylbenzenesulfonyl)- O-(P-Methylphenoxy) İsourea, Ali Reza Modarresi-Alam, Hossein A. Dabbagh

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The conformational and configurational behavior and the structure of N-2-(1,4-dioxane)-N'-(p-methylbenzenesulfonyl)-O- (p-methylphenoxy) isourea (1) were studied using dynamic NMR. The endo-anomeric effect, hydrogen bonding, temperature, and polarity of solvent control the population of dioxane ring conformers or anomers but not the configuration interconversion of the imine of the imidoyl moiety. Dynamic ^1H-NMR, \Delta H°, \Delta S°, \Delta G°, and \Delta G^{\ddag} analysis of 1 demonstrates that the dioxane ring adopts the chair conformation, that the imidoyl amino group prefers axial conformation, and that the tosyl and tolyl groups about the C=N bond retain the E configuration.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A substituted amide of pyrazine-2-carboxylic acid was prepared and the IR spectrum was recorded and analysed. The compound prepared was identified by NMR and mass spectra. The vibrational frequencies of the title compound were computed using the Hartree-Fock level of theory using the 6-31G* basis set and compared with the experimental data. The red shift of the NH stretching frequency indicates weakening of the NH bond. The splitting of the NH stretching bond is due to Davidov coupling between neighbouring units. The first hyperpolarizability, infrared intensities, and Raman activities are reported. Methyl substitution affects all the carbon-nitrogen and carbon-carbon bond …
