Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Moxifloxacin (MOX) is a fourth-generation synthetic fluoroquinolone antibacterial agent with many important therapeutic properties. Fluorescence quenching was used to study the interaction of MOX with calf thymus DNA (ct-DNA) in aqueous solution. The intercalative binding mode and a static quenching mechanism were confirmed by the Stern--Volmer quenching rate constant (K_q) of 3.48 \times 10^{11} M^{-1} s^{-1} at 298 K. The thermodynamic parameters (\Delta H = --118.4 KJ mol^{-1} and \Delta S = --299.4 J mol^{-1} K^{-1}) were calculated at different temperatures, and they indicate that the main forces between MOX and ct-DNA are hydrogen bonding and Van der Waals force. …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A small library of new azomethine derivatives of 3-aryl-2-thioxo-2,3-dihydroquinazolin-4(1H)-ones was synthesized. The key intermediates 2-thioxo-quinazolinones (3a--e), obtained in 2 steps from the corresponding anilines, were treated with methyl chloroacetate to afford S-substituted esters (4a,d), which were then converted into corresponding acetohydrazides (5a,d). Further, acetohydrazide (5d) was converted to the azomethines derivatives (6a--k) by reacting with a number of suitably substituted benzaldehydes. FTIR, ^1H NMR, ^{13}C NMR, GC-MS, and elemental analyses were used to confirm the assigned structures of the synthesized compounds. Further, compounds 3a, 5, and 6j were also confirmed by X-ray diffraction data.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The surface of mesocellular silica foam (MCF) was modified by grafting 3-aminopropyl-triethoxysilane (APTES) to have a positive charge, and thus to provide sites for the immobilization of H_3PW_{12}O_{40} (PW_{12}). This modified nanosized mesoporous silica (PW_{12}-APTES@MCF) was characterized by FTIR, XRD, BET, and TEM. XRD and adsorption--desorption analysis shows that the mesostructure of silica remains intact after various modifications, while the spectral technique shows the successful grafting of the neat PW_{12} inside the porous silica support.

A new Schiff base was prepared from 2-sulphanilamidopyrimidine and 2-hydroxy-3-methoxybenzaldehyde in ethanolic media and it was complexed with Mn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Zn(II) ions. The synthesised ligand and complexes were characterised by IR, UV, ^1H and ^{13}C NMR, elemental analysis, cyclic voltammetry, EPR, molar conductance, and magnetic susceptibility. The reasonable shifts in FT-IR and NMR spectral signals of the complexes with respect to the free ligand confirm good coordination of the Schiff-base ligand with the metal through imine nitrogen and oxygen atoms of Schiff base moiety. The Schiff-base ligand and the complexes were screened for antimicrobial activity and fluorescent …

An esterase from a thermophilic bacterium, Geobacillus sp. DF20, was partially purified. Final purification factor was found to be 64.5-fold using Q-Sepharose ion exchange column chromatography. Native polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis indicated the presence of a single active esterase. The substrate specificity of this esterase was high for p-nitrophenyl butyrate (pNPB) substrate. The optimum pH and temperature for the enzyme activity were 7.0 and 50 ^°C, respectively. The pH and heat stability profiles show that this enzyme is more stable under neutral conditions at 50 ^°C. K_m and V_{max} values for this esterase acting on pNPB were 0.12 mM and 54.6 …

2-Acetylpyridine-4-phenyl-3-thiosemicarbazone (APPT) ligand was incorporated onto Amberlite XAD-2 resin through an azo spacer and characterized by FTIR spectroscopy, elemental analysis, TGA, and SEM analysis. The synthesized resin was used for the preconcentration of Pb(II), Zn(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Cu(II), and Cd(II) ions. The sorbed metal ions were eluted with 10 mL of 2.0 mol L^{-1} HCl and determined by microsample injection coupled flame atomic spectrometry (MIS-FAAS). The recoveries of studied metal ions were \ge 95.1 % with RSD \ge 4.0 % at optimum pH 8; resin amount, 300 mg; flow rates, 2.0 mL min^{-1} (of eluent) and 3.0 mL min^{-1} (sample …
