Investigation Of The Cation Complexation By Macrocyclic Ethers Using ^{13}C Nmr Spin--Lattice Dipolar Relaxation Time Measurements, Çakil Erk, Matthias Heydenreich, Erich Kleinpeter

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The binding constants (K_a) of [18]crown-6 ether with Na^+ , K^+, and Ba^{2+} thiocyanates were determined by ^{13}C{^1H} NMR spin--lattice dipolar relaxation time measurements. The observed relaxation times (T_{obs}) for ^{13}C nuclei are dependent upon the relaxation times of the complexed (T_{1a}) and free crown ether (T_{1f}), and were measured in [D4]methanol using inversion--recovery measurements in the extreme narrowing limit (75 MHz). The observed ^{13}C relaxation times of the metal complexes were found to be smaller than those of the cation-free macrocyclic ether due to reduced internal flexibility of the macrocycles in the complexes. The relationship 1/T_{obs} = P_a/T_{1a} + …

Preparation And Characterization Of An Aromatic Polyimide And Its Use As A Selective Membrane For H_2o_2, Ergun Eki̇nci̇, Süleyman Köytepe, Azi̇z Paşahan, Turgay Seçki̇n

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Selectivity behavior to electroactive and non-electroactive substances of a polyimide prepared from 2,2'-dimethyl-4,4'-diaminobiphenyl and the corresponding dianhydride was examined by electrochemical methods. From the excellent electrochemical findings obtained, it was observed that polyimide film was only permeable to hydrogen peroxide among the substances examined. Therefore, it is claimed that the mentioned polymeric film can be successfully used as a hydrogen peroxide-selective membrane in the presence of electroactive and non-electroactive interferents.

Cumene Cracking On Modified Mesoporous Material Type Mcm-41, Ahmed Belhakem, Abdelkader Bengueddach

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The effect of ionic exchange degree of H(X)-AlMCM-41 materials, the method of its exchange and its grain form were investigated for mesoporous catalytic activity in the cumene cracking reaction. Benzene, propylene and xylene derivatives are the main products of this reaction. Olefins like butene and pentene appeared as the products of secondary reactions. No saturated hydrocarbons, which are typical products of secondary reactions obtained with HNaY zeolites, were formed, except for traces of butane. Generally the exchanged H(X)-AlMCM-41 materials by the substitution of Na^+ by NH_4^+ are more active than those exchanged directly with acid solution (substitution of Na^+ by …

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 …

Chemistry Of Bicyclic Endoperoxides Derived From Dihydropyridine Derivatives: Attempted Synthesis Of Polyhydroxypiperidine Derivatives, Emi̇ne Salamci, Beyhan Bayram, Meti̇n Balci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

To achieve the synthesis of azasugar derivatives with the utilization of singlet oxygen, pyridine was used as the starting material. The reduction of pyridine followed by a singlet oxygen reaction afforded cyclic aza-endoperoxides (14 and 16). However, many attempts were made to convert the aza-endoperoxides to the corresponding di- and triacetates without success. However, the base-catalyzed rearrangement of 14 gave unprecedented rearrangement products 23 and 24.

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.

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.

Monolithic and conventional particle-packed columns were applied for the determination of propranolol hydrochloride in the presence of its 2 main degradation products, 3-(1-naphthyloxy)-propane-1,2- diol and 4-isopropyl-1,7-bis-(1-naphthyloxy)-4-azaheptane-2,6-diol. The separations were investigated on monolithic columns at flow rates from 1 to 9 mL/min. Fast and efficient separation was obtained by monolithic columns. The analysis time was decreased by about 5-fold on monolithic columns at a flow rate of 4 mL/min, while maintaining sufficient resolution between propranolol and its degradation products. The method was validated using a set of 3 monolithic columns and compared to a conventional (Superspher) C18 column. The precision for …
