Encapsulation Of Copper(Ii) Complexes With Three Dentate No$_{2}$ Ligands Derived From 2,6-Pyridinedicarboxylic Acid In Nay Zeolite, Massomeh Ghorbanloo, Somayeh Ghamari, Hidenori Yahiro
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
2,6-Pyridinedicarboxylic acid (H$_{2}$dipic) reacts with copper-exchanged zeolite NaY to form [Cu(dipic)(H$_{2}$O)$_{2}$]$_{n}$, which is encapsulated in the pores of the zeolite. In this zeolite-encapsulated form, the copper derivative functions as an efficient catalyst for the oxidation of cyclohexene, toluene, cyclohexane, and ethyl benzene in the presence of hydrogen peroxide (as an oxidant). The catalyst was readily recovered from the reaction mixture, and it could be reused for an additional three runs without perceptible loss of activity. The heterogeneous catalyst exhibited considerably higher activity and selectivity compared with [Cu(dipic)(H$_{2}$O)$_{2}$]$_{n}$ itself.

Conversion Of Racemic Allylic Hydroperoxides Into Corresponding Chiral 1/2,3-Triols By Using Catalytic Oso$_{4}$ And Chiral Cinchona Ligands In The Absence Of Co-Oxidant, Haydar Göksu, Mehmet Serdar Gülteki̇n
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
For the first time, removal of oxygen atoms from allylic hydroperoxide functionality and reintroduction to the double bond was achieved using catalytic OsO$_{4}$ and chiral cinchona alkaloid derivatives in an acetone-water mixture to give corresponding chiral 1/2,3-triol with an enantioselectivity up to 99% ee. The hydroperoxide group was used as both a co-oxidant and a source of hydroxyl groups. This protocol is thought to have potential to provide opportunities for chiral synthesis of 1/2,3-triols from corresponding allylic hydroperoxides in the absence of co-oxidant in one stage for the first time in the literature.

Effective Recognition Of Multiple Anions By An Azobenzene--Al$^{\Mathbf{3+}}$ System, Ye Zhang, Ping Jia, Zhangfa Tong, Hai-Bo Liu, Jing Wang
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A ready-to-use multifunctional coordinative system, 2,2'-dihydroxyazobenzene --aluminum (III) (DHAB--Al$^{3+})$, was created to recognize several anions effectively through three channels, namely colorimetric detection, UV-Vis spectroscopy, and fluorescence spectroscopy. Under naked eye visualization, the H$_{2}$PO$_{4}^{-}$ can be readily distinguished from the other anions by the DHAB--Al$^{3+}$ system through a change in color from reddish-orange to light yellow. H$_{2}$PO$_{4}^{-}$ was qualitatively detected by using UV-Vis and fluorescence spectra. Differentiating SO$_{3}^{2-}$, HPO$_{4}^{2-}$, and HCO$_{3}^{-}$ anions colorimetrically is difficult; thus, CO$_{3}^{2-}$, SO$_{3}^{2-}$, HPO$_{4}^{2-}$, and HCO$_{3}^{-}$ were discriminated by adopting distinct changes in the UV-Vis spectra. CO$_{3}^{2-}$, HPO$_{4}^{2-}$, and HCO$_{3}^{-}$ were accurately quantified using fluorescence spectra. …

Potentiodynamic polarization and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy techniques were used to establish the effect of different concentrations of HCl on the corrosion behavior of mild steel. A study was conducted on the inhibition of dissolution for a mild steel alloy in the most corrosive concentration of HCl (5 M) by adding different concentrations of aqueous extract of \textit{Hibiscus sabdariffa} plant (named karkade or rosselle) as an ecofriendly inhibitor. The extent of corrosion inhibition as measured by the two techniques was comparable. The results …

Coating processes are applied in order to improve coating adhesion and resistance to degradation. Covalently bound organic coatings rather than merely physically bound ones assure stable modification. In this study a novel two-step process was developed to modify cellulose/chitin mix fibers consisting of enzymatic activation with a commercial cellulase, followed by a coupling reaction with N-isopropylacrylamide (or poly (N-isopropylacrylamide)) in the presence of 1-(3-dimethylaminopropyl)-3-ethylcarbodiimide (EDC) and N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS). Both enzyme-activated and subsequently modified samples were characterized by ATR-FTIR, XPS, and SEM. All obtained results confirm the structural and morphological changes of the fiber surface after the application of the two-step …

The reaction of 5-amino-3-(4-methoxyphenylamino)-$N$-aryl-1$H$-pyrazole-4-carboxamides \textbf{1a}--\textbf{c} with ethyl acetoacetate \textbf{2} and 2-(4-fluorobenzylidene)malononitrile \textbf{6} yielded pyrazolo[1,5-$a$]pyrimidines \textbf{5a}--\textbf{c} and \textbf{9a}--\textbf{c}, respectively. On the other hand, Schiff bases \textbf{11a}--\textbf{f} were obtained upon treatment of carboxamides \textbf{1a}--\textbf{c} with some selected aldehydes \textbf{10a }and\textbf{ b}. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized and confirmed by analytical and spectroscopic data (IR, MS, $^{1}$H NMR, and $^{13}$C NMR). Pyrazolo[1,5-$a$]pyrimidines \textbf{5a}--\textbf{c} and \textbf{9a}--\textbf{c} and Schiff bases \textbf{11b}--\textbf{f} were investigated for their cytotoxicity against four human cancer cell lines (colon HCT116, lung A549, breast MCF-7, and liver HepG2) according to SRB assay and the structure--activity relationship was discussed.

In this account the authors' latest results in C-C coupling catalysis are reviewed. First, an efficient catalytic system for the Kumada-Tamao-Corriu coupling reaction based on NHC-phosphine (NHC = N-heterocyclic carbene) nickel complexes is presented. Then the use of palladium complexes of chiral ferrocenyl NHC-phosphines in the asymmetric Suzuki-Miyaura coupling reaction is reported. High catalytic activities and moderate enantioselectivities (ee up to 46%) were obtained. Chiral ferrocenyl phosphine-ethers were also tested in the asymmetric Suzuki-Miyaura reaction yielding good activities and moderate enantioselectivities (ee up to 37%). Finally, the original synthesis of a ferrocenyl rhodium(III) complex and its successful use as catalyst …
