Chromium(Iii) Complexes With Different Chromospheres Macrocyclic Ligands: Synthesis And Spectroscopic Studies, Rajiv Kumar, Rajeev Singh

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Symmetric tetradentate (L^1) and asymmetric pentadentate (L^2) macrocyclic ligands that possess 2 dissimilar coordination sites were prepared. One has a 4-coordinate (N_4) and the other has a 5-coordinate (N_2O_3S) donor set. Trivalent Cr(III) complexes were synthesized with L^1 and L^2 and their structures were investigated using elemental analyses and magnetic moment, electronic, IR, ^1H NMR, ^{13}C NMR and EPR spectra. All the Cr(III) complexes show magnetic moments corresponding to a high-spin configuration. \Delta values indicate the energy difference between the principle bands, which are formed due to ligand field absorption. The spin-orbit coupling parameter, z, gives no significance because the …

Online Viscosity Measurement Of Complex Solutions Using Ultrasound Doppler Velocimetry, Volkan Köseli̇, Şeri̇fe Zeybek, Yusuf Uludağ Jan 2006

Online Viscosity Measurement Of Complex Solutions Using Ultrasound Doppler Velocimetry, Volkan Köseli̇, Şeri̇fe Zeybek, Yusuf Uludağ

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A new method to measure the viscosity of non-Newtonian fluids over a wide range of shear rates in a short period of time is presented. The technique is based on the measurement of the velocity profile in a pipe flow using ultrasound Doppler velocimetry (UDV), which is a non-invasive method, and simultaneously determining the pressure drop. The velocity profile is used to obtain shear rate distribution, while the pressure drop is used to calculate the shear stress distribution. By taking the ratio of these quantities at a radial position, local viscosity can be obtained within the shear rate range in …

Electrochemical Synthesis Of N-Methylpyrrole And N-Methylcarbazole Copolymer On Carbon Fiber Microelectrodes, And Their Characterization, A. Sezai̇ Saraç, Erkan Doğru, Murat Ateş, Eli̇f Altürk Parlak

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Copolymer films of N-methylpyrrole (N-MPy) and N-methylcarbazole (N-MCz) were synthesized electrochemically onto single carbon fiber microelectrodes (CFMEs). Deposition conditions on the carbon fiber, influence of the monomer concentrations on the copolymerization of P[N-methylpyrrole-co-N-methylcarbazole] P[N-MPy-co-N-MCz], and the electrochemistry of the resulting homopolymer and copolymers were studied using cyclic voltammetry, FTIR-ATR, in-situ spectroelectrochemistry, a UV-vis spectrophotometer, and a 4-point probe conductometer. The effects of current density, supporting electrolyte type, temperature, and monomer concentrations on the formation of the film were studied. Redox parameters and stability of charged films were obtained by cyclic voltammetry. The most stable copolymer was obtained in lithium perchlorate-acetonitrile …


Optical Fluoride Sensing With A Bay Region Functionalized Perylenediimide Dye, Funda Yukruk Jan 2006

Optical Fluoride Sensing With A Bay Region Functionalized Perylenediimide Dye, Funda Yukruk

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A perylenedimiide (PDI) derivative functionalized at the perylene core (bay region) to carry phenyl boronic acid groups was shown to interact with fluoride with changes in the emission and absorption spectrum. These changes are most likely due to fluoride-induced aggregation and/or quenching of the perylenediimide dye. The dye is also selective; among halide ions, fluoride anions generate a significant response. Thus, this class of PDI derivatives is likely to be useful in practical fluoride sensing.

Hydrothermal And Microwave-Assisted Synthesis Of Boroarsenate, Baso_4, Abdulhadi̇ Baykal, Ayten Evren

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

BAsO_4 was previously synthesized by solid-state reactions at 800 °C and was characterized by X-ray powder diffraction. Now, we succeeded in preparing BAsO_4 from H_3BO_3 and As_2O_5 using hydrothermal synthesis by heating at 160 °C for 3 days (a single-phase product) and using microwave-assisted synthesis, which takes only 5 min to transform a solid mixture of As_2O_5 and (NH_4)_2B_4O_7.4H_2O into the crystalline titled compound (a single-phase product). The crystallinity of the products is higher than that of the solid-state synthesized product given in the literature. Its X-ray powder diffraction patterns, and both Raman and IR spectra were in good agreement …

Template Synthesis And Structural Characterization Of Homo Binuclear Chromium(Iii), Manganese(Iii), Iron(Iii), Cobalt(Iii), And Ruthenium(Iii) Complexes With Octaazamacrocyclic Ligands, Vinod K. Sharma, Shipra Srivastava

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The Schiff base octaazamacrocyclic ligands derived from primary diamines and 3,6-dimethyl/diphenyl-4,5-diazaocta-3,5-diene-2,7-dione, and their binuclear complexes [M_2LCl_4]Cl_2 [M = Cr(III), Fe(III), Co(III), or Ru(III)] and [Mn_2L(AcO)_4](AcO)_2 were synthesized by template condensation reactions. Attempts to synthesize the corresponding metal-free macrocyclic ligands did not prove successful. The overall geometry and stereochemistry of these complexes were elucidated by elemental analyses, magnetic susceptibilities, electronic spectra, infrared spectra, molar conductance measurements, ^1H NMR, and thermogravimetric analysis. All the trivalent metal ion complexes appear to be 1:2 electrolytes. An octahedral geometry is proposed for all the complexes.

Prediction Of Acidity Constants Of Thiazolidine-4-Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Using Ab Initio And Genetic Algorithm-Partial Least Squares, Ali Niazi, Saeed Jameh Bozorghi, Davood Nori Shargh

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A quantitative structure-property relationship study is suggested for the prediction of the acidity constants of some thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid derivatives in aqueous solution. Ab initio theory was used to calculate some quantum chemical descriptors, including electrostatic potentials and local charges at each atom, highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) energies, etc. Modeling of the acidity constant of thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid derivatives as a function of molecular structures was established by means of the partial least squares algorithm. The subset of descriptors, which resulted in a low prediction error, was selected by genetic algorithm. This model was applied …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The single crystal X-ray structure of the imidazolidin ruthenium complex, C_{38}H_{46}N_2Cl_2Ru, was determined. The complex is an orthorhombic space group Pbca with a = 17.3586(32) Å, b = 14.4447(27) Å, c = 27.4325(52) Å, and V = 6878.466(4) Å^3 with Z = 8 for D_{calc} = 1.357 g/cm^3. It exhibits the expected 3-legged piano stool geometry. There is one coordination bond of the ruthenium atom with the electrons of the \eta^6-hexamethylbenzene, 2 symmetrical Ru-Cl bonds, and one Ru-C bond involving the imidazole ring. The coordination around the ruthenium atom is 4-fold, which in this is case is pseudo-tetrahedral.
