Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Breast cancer is one of the most common types of cancer worldwide and has the most lethality ratio for females among all cancers. Although current cancer therapeutics have made considerable advancements, there is still room for improvement in terms of efficacy. Many anticancer drugs have a risk of causing serious adverse effects due to their non-specific cytotoxic effects on both tumor and healthy cells. New therapeutics might have a greater ability to kill cancer cells, reduce the volume of tumors, and improve overall therapy response rates. Herein, we report the efficient synthesis and characterization of three amphi vic-dioximes and their …

Synthesis Of 3-Methyl-3-Buten-1-Ol By Supercritical Co2 In Coordination With Hzsm-5 Catalyzed Formaldehyde-Isobutene Prins Reaction, Hang Yuan, Gui-Ping Cao, Hui Lv
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The reaction solvent and catalyst play an essential role in the Prins reaction for the synthesis of 3-methyl-3-buten-1-ol (MBO) from formaldehyde and isobutene. The reactivity of the solid base catalyzed Prins condensation reaction by formaldehyde and isobutene in supercritical CO2 was investigated using CsH2PO4 modified HZSM-5. We finds that the alkaline sites of the alkali-loaded catalyst can extract the α-H on isobutene to generate olefin carbon negative ions, while the supercritical CO2 with weak Lewis acidity can activate formaldehyde to carbon positive ions, which can combine more easily with the carbon negative isobutene to react, thus improving the reactivity of …

Β-Ketoenamine-Linked Covalent Organic Framework For Efficient Iodine Capture, Onur Büyükçakir
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Exploring the materials that effectively capture radioactive iodine is crucial in managing nuclear waste produced from nuclear power plants. Herein, a β-ketoenamine-linked covalent organic framework (bCOF) was reported as an effective adsorbent to capture iodine from both vapor and solution. bCOF's high porosity and heteroatom-rich skeleton offer a notable iodine vapor uptake capacity of up to 2.51 g g-1 at 75 oC under ambient pressure. Furthermore, after five consecutive adsorption-desorption cycles, the bCOF demonstrates a high reusability performance with a significant iodine vapor capacity retention. The adsorption mechanism was also investigated using various ex-situ structural characterization techniques, and these mechanistic …

Lacoo3 Is A Promising Catalyst For Dry Reforming Of Benzene Used As A Surrogate Of Biomass Tar, Başar Çağlar, Deni̇z Üner
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Tar build-up is one of the bottlenecks of biomass gasification process. Dry reforming of tar is an alternative solution if oxygen chemical potential on the catalyst surface is at sufficient levels. For this purpose, an oxygen donor perovskite, LaCoO3, was used as a catalyst for dry reforming of tar. To circumvent the complexity of the tar and its constituents, benzene molecule was chosen as a model compound. Dry reforming of benzene vapour on the LaCoO3 catalyst was investigated at temperatures of 600, 700, 800 °C, at the CO2/C6H6 ratios of 3, 6, 12 and at space velocities of 14000 and …

Preparation Of A Chiral Hyperbranched Polymer Based On Cinchona Alkaloids And Investigation Of Its Catalytic Activity In Asymmetric Reactions, Rafiqul Islam, Mohammad Shahid Ullah, Abdus Salam, Shinichi Itsuno
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Cinchona alkaloid-derived sulfonamides and ester dimers containing chiral hyperbranched polymers have been successfully synthesized and applied as catalysts in asymmetric reactions. Several hyperbranched polymers derived from cinchona alkaloids, incorporating sulfonamides and esters, were synthesized through Mizoroki–Heck coupling polymerization. These polymers were subsequently applied in enantioselective Michael addition reactions. As the prepared polymers are not soluble in frequently used organic solvents, they act as efficient catalysts in the enantioselective reaction of β-ketoesters to nitroolefins, achieving up to 99% enantioselectivity with good yields. The insoluble property allows them to better satisfy “green chemistry” requirements and be used several times without losing the …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Two 3-(p-substituted phenyl)-3a,8a-dihydro-4H-cyclohepta[d]isoxazoles were synthesized by 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of the corresponding nitrile oxides with cycloheptatriene. Two endoperoxides were synthesized as facially selective and single products in high yields (93-95%) from the reactions of isoxazole derivatives with singlet oxygen. The exact configurations of the endoperoxide with a methyl group in the phenyl ring and the diol synthesized from it were confirmed by X-ray analysis. To elucidate the mechanism, the formation energy of the endoperoxide was investigated by simulations using the software package Gaussian 09 and density functional theory calculations via the M06-2X/6-311+G(d,p) level method in dichloromethane. The results were consistent with …

Improving The Water Solubility Of Cannabidiol Using A Peptide Carrier, Melek Parlak Khalily
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Cannabidiol (CBD), nonpsychotropic cannabinoid found in Cannabis sativa, is a very promising drug candidate offering many differential effects such as sedative, antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and neuroprotective properties. Nevertheless, the therapeutic use of CBD is hindered by its lack of water solubility and relatively low bioavailability. Various carriers have been used to address the solubility issues of CBD and other highly lipophilic drugs so far. However, self-assembled peptide nanostructures as carrier have not been used to improve the water solubility of CBD yet. In this study, a self-assembling peptide micelle was demonstrated to be an effective vehicle for encapsulation of CBD and …

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest in producing new materials that use renewable resources and halogen-free flame retardants with nonleaching properties. This research focuses on designing and synthesizing phosphorus-nitrogen-based biopolyols for use in polyurethane (PU) foam production. Polyol (ESBO-DYM) with dual functionalities, renewability, and nonflammability is synthesized through the epoxy ring-opening reaction of epoxidized soybean oil with phosphorus and nitrogen-containing tetraol products (DYM). The mechanical and flame retardant properties of PU foams with the addition of an ESBO-DYM were investigated. Increasing the amount of phosphorus in the PU foams increased the thermal stability properties. Using 100% ESBO-DYM …
