Synthesis Of Some Ketones Via Nano-Nickel Oxide Catalyzed Acylation Of Arylzinc Reagents; Strategy Involving The Use Of Mixed (Methyl)(Aryl)Zincs, Özgen Ömür Pekel, Ender Erdi̇k, Meli̇ke Kalkan
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Nano-NiO catalyzed acylation of mixed (methyl)(aryl)zincs with aromatic acyl halides in THF at room temperature provides a new facile route for aryl-aroyl coupling. Among NiCl$_{2}$.L$_{2}$ and NiCl$_{2}$.L (L = monodentate and bidentate phosphine ligand) catalysts, the lower catalyst loading of NiCl$_{2}$ (dppf) may seem attractive; however, nano-NiO, being the lowest cost catalyst, is more favorable for aroylation of (methyl)(aryl)zincs. This procedure also provides a supplement to Cu and Pd catalyzed acylation of diorganozincs.

Pyridine-3/4-thiocarboxamide derivatives were used as starting materials for the synthesis of the target compounds. The pyridine-3/4-thiocarboxamide derivatives were reacted with ethyl 2-chloroacetoacetate in ethanol to give the thiazole derivatives (1, 2). The two ethyl thiazole-carboxylate derivatives (1, 2) thus obtained were treated with sodium hydroxide solution and ethanol and converted to carboxylic acids (3, 4). The carboxylic acid derivatives (3, 4) were reacted with thiosemicarbazide in phosphoroxy trichloride and aminothiadiazole rings (5, 6) were formed. Thus, two thiazolyl-thiadiazole amine derivatives (5, 6) were obtained. These two derivatives (5, 6) were converted into two chloroacetamidothiadiazole derivatives (7, 8) by reaction with …

Computational Investigation Of Intramolecular Reorganization Energy In Diketopyrrolopyrrole (Dpp) Derivatives, Şule Atahan Evrenk
Computational Investigation Of Intramolecular Reorganization Energy In Diketopyrrolopyrrole (Dpp) Derivatives, Şule Atahan Evrenk
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Intramolecular reorganization energy (RE) of molecules derived from the diketopyrrolopyrrole (DPP) unit has been studied using B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) theory. It was found that the replacement of the oxygen atoms with sulfur in the DPP unit led to a smaller RE for both the hole and electron transfer processes. One disadvantage of the sulfur replacement is the twist of the conjugated backbone, which might impair the $\pi - \pi $ interactions in the solid state. The RE calculated from the adiabatic potential energy surfaces and that derived from the normal mode analysis agreed well for both systems. Electronic structure data showed that …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A facile synthesis of piperidinium 3,3'-(arylmethylene) bis (2-hydroxynaphthalene-1,4-dione) analogs as organic salts is described by the one-pot pseudo-four-component reaction between 2-hydroxy-1,4-naphthoquinone, aromatic aldehydes, and piperidine. The single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis of these systems confirms that the stabilized predominant interactions are N-H\... O and O-H\... O hydrogen bonds. Mild and clean reaction conditions, high atom economy, and operational simplicity of this one-pot multicomponent reaction coupled with excellent yields and no need for column chromatography have transformed this procedure to be a superior synthetic route for the efficient formation of families of naphthoquinone-derived compounds.

Synthesis, Characterization, And Evaluation Of Toxicity Of Quaternary Ammonium Chlorides Of Glucose-Based Este, Anna Parus, Grzegorz Framski
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
This study presents the synthesis of glucose-based surfactants including quaternary ammonium salts. Their surface properties and influence on the soil environment were investigated. The synthesized quaternary ammonium chlorides of glucose-based ester exhibited good surface tension reduction properties and formed stable foam in contact with water. The results showed that quaternary ester ammonium salts affect the activation of metals (nickel and cadmium) from the soil matrix after their introduction into the soil environment. This phenomenon can increase the bioavailability of these metals. The introduction of glucose surfactants to the soil increased microorganism activity, which may indicate that these compounds were used …

Differential Pulse Voltammetric Determination Of Dopamine Using Pd Nanoparticles Deposited On (3-Aminopropyl)Triethoxysilane Functionalized Ceo$_{2}$ Nanoparticles, Muhammet Güler
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
In this study, a novel and effective electrochemical sensor for determination of dopamine (DA) was successfully developed by the modification of a glassy carbon electrode (GCE) using Pd nanoparticles deposited on (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane functionalized nanoceria (Pd@CeO$_{2}$-APTES) and nafion used as a protective membrane. The synthesized nanocomposites were evaluated using X-ray diffraction, high-resolution transmission electron microscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Moreover, the electrochemical properties of the modified electrodes were investigated using cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance voltammetry, and differential pulse voltammetry (DPV). The Nf/Pd@CeO$_{2}$-APTES/GCE showed a linear range of 2.5--149.5 $\mu $M for DA by DPV with a notable sensitivity of 3.89 …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Our focus in this study is on the design and synthesis of a light-responsive peptide-based nanocarrier in order to develop effective and biocompatible drug delivery systems. The synthesized nanocarrier is basically composed of peptide amphiphiles comprising a micelle forming a Pro-Pro-Pro-Lys-Lys-Lys peptide sequence with an attached anthracene fluorophore. Anthracene containing an inner core of the micelle can serve as a storage site for poorly water-soluble drugs. Moreover, anthracenes that come in close proximity with the formation of micellar structures can undergo photodimerization upon irradiation at 365 nm, which disrupts the micelle structures formed by the self-assembly of the peptide amphiphiles. …
