Naphthoquinones From The Roots Of Onosma Argentatum Hub.-Mor. (Boraginaceae), Ufuk Özgen, Maksut Coşkun, Cavi̇t Kazaz, Hasan Seçen

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Onosma argentatum Hub.-Mor. is an endemic species growing in Turkey. In this study, the roots of O. argentatum were extracted with n-hexane-dichloromethane (1:1). The extract was separated on a silica gel column eluting with n-hexane-ethyl acetate by gradient elution. New naphthoquinone compounds (3 known and 1 new) were isolated and their structures were elucidated by spectroscopic methods as deoxyshikonin, acetyl shikonin, 3-hydroxy-isovaleryl shikonin, and 5,8-O-dimethyl acetyl shikonin.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Ten 2-[(2-oxobenzothiazolin-3-yl)methyl]-5-aminoalkyl/aryl-1,3,4-thiadiazole derivatives were synthesized. The chemical structures of these compounds were elucidated by their FT-IR and ^1H-NMR spectral data, as well as their elemental analyses. The compounds were tested for antinociceptive activity. Among these compounds, 2-[(2-oxobenzothiazolin-3-yl)methyl]-5-aminomethyl-1,3,4-thiadiazole (5a) was found to be significantly more active than the others and the standards in all the tests.


Thermally Induced Cationic Polymerization Of 2-Ethyl-2-Oxazoline By Benzyl Pyridinium And Anilinium Salts, Hali̇l Ki̇rli̇bal, Yusuf Yağci Jan 2004

Thermally Induced Cationic Polymerization Of 2-Ethyl-2-Oxazoline By Benzyl Pyridinium And Anilinium Salts, Hali̇l Ki̇rli̇bal, Yusuf Yağci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

N-Benzyl pyridinium (BP), N-benzyl o-cyano pyridinium (BoCP), N-benzyl p-cyanopyridinium (BpCP), N-benzyl N, N-dimethyl anilinium (BDA) and benzyl triphenyl phosphonium (BTP) salts with bromide counter anion, thermal initiators for cationic polymerization, were synthesized and characterized. Their capability to act as initiators for the polymerization of 2-ethyl-2-oxazoline (EOZO) was examined. The postulated mechanism is based on the generation of benzyl bromide by the thermolysis of either BoCP or BDA that reacts with the monomer, EOZO. The polymerization proceeds via an oxazolonium bromide as the propagating end. BP, BoCP and BTP were found to be unreactive towards EOZO.

The Hydrodynamic Properties Of Micelles Formed By Block Copolymers Of Isoprene And Tert-Butylacrylate In N-Octane, Hali̇l İbrahi̇m Ünal, Colin Price

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The hydrodynamic properties of micelles formed by 2 block copolymers of isoprene and tert-butylacrylate in n-octane were investigated by dynamic light scattering (DLS) over a range of temperatures and concentrations using both the cumulants and histogram methods. By means of the histogram method it was possible to determine the average hydrodynamic diameters of both micelles and unassociated-chains in the same solution. It was also used to determine the z-average fraction of unassociated-chains at a particular concentration and temperature, and it provided an alternative route when combined with static light scattering (SLS) for determining the thermodynamics of micellisation. The overall-average diffusion …

Defect Structure And Properties Of Sr-Doped La Cr O_{3-\Delta}, Mahmoud Omari, Ilhem Chadli, Salah Belaidi Jan 2004

Defect Structure And Properties Of Sr-Doped La Cr O_{3-\Delta}, Mahmoud Omari, Ilhem Chadli, Salah Belaidi

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A defect chemical model for the behavior of acceptor-doped LaCrO_3 as a function of oxygen pressure is proposed. This is considered within the regime that corresponds to oxygen deficit oxygen. The mathematical approach allows us to calculate the oxygen partial pressure dependant properties of La_{1-x} Sr_x Cr O_{3-\delta} in the range 0.10 \le x \le 0.30. The results show that the conductivity was independent of pO_2 and was proportional to the dopant concentration at high pO_2. Therefore, under reducing conditions, the conductivity decreased exponentially with decreasing pO_2 and asymptotically approached a pO_2^{1/4} relationship. Stability regimes and compensation mechanisms at various …

Purification And Characterization Of Pear (Pyrus Communis) Polyphenol Oxidase, Emi̇ne Zi̇yan, Şule Pekyardimci

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Three isoenzymes of polyphenol oxidase (PPO) were isolated from a local pear variety (Ankara Armutu) through ammonium sulfate precipitation, dialysis and gel filtration.

Rapid Complexometric Determination Of Mercury(Ii) Using Glutathione As A Selective Demasking Reagent, Prakash Shetty, A. Nithyananda Shetty Jan 2004

Rapid Complexometric Determination Of Mercury(Ii) Using Glutathione As A Selective Demasking Reagent, Prakash Shetty, A. Nithyananda Shetty

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A simple, rapid and selective complexometric method is proposed for the determination of mercury(II) in the presence of associated metal ions. Mercury(II) is first complexed with an excess of EDTA and the surplus EDTA is titrated against standard zinc sulphate solution at pH 5-6 using xylenol orange indicator. Glutathione is then added to displace EDTA from the Hg-EDTA complex quantitatively and the EDTA released is back titrated against a standard zinc sulphate solution as before. The method works well in the range 4 to 80 mg of mercury with a relative error of less than 0.30% and a coefficient of …

An Atropisomeric Chiral 2,2'-Bipyridyl-3,3'-Dicarboxylic Acid And Corresponding Platinum(Ii) Complex, Abdurrahman Şengül

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

2,2'-Bipyridyl-3,3'-dicarboxylic acid (H_2BDC) spontaneously resolves on crystallization from water, giving monohydrated crystals of the space group P2_12_12_1. In any individual crystal, all the atropisomeric-skewed molecules are of one hand; however, on dissolution in water, optical activity is lost. Strong hydrogen bonding leads to a helical structure, via O--H ... N links, and 3 further strong bonds between water and carboxylate groups produce a framework structure. The pK_a values measured for H_2BDC (3.18 \pm 0.04 and 4.59 \pm 0.02 at 20 \pm 1 °C, in dilute aqueous solution) agree with the zwitterionic form. The reaction of H_2BDC with potassium tetrachloroplatinate(II) in …

1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition of imidazoline 3-oxides 1 with methylisothiocyanate proceeds regio- and diastereoselectively to give tetrahydroimidazo[1,5-b][1,2,4]oxadiazol-2(1H)-thiones 3 in high yields. The cis configuration of the adducts was proved by our double cis elimination test as well as by NOESY experiments. Adducts 3a-c undergo ring opening at reflux in acetonitrile to give imidazoles while 3d-e undergo retro dipolar cycloaddition to give the starting nitrones 1d-e. The imidazooxadiazol-2-thiones 3a-e were treated with concentrated HCl in ethanol at 50 °C to give the corresponding 4H-[1,2,4]oxadiazole-5-thione only in cases in which the substituent at C-6 is an aryl.

New adsorbents were synthesized by the sol-gel process from the product of a hydrolysis reaction and its coated form of titanium(IV)-n-propoxide for removing some heavy metal ions from aqueous solution. Titanium(IV)-n-propoxide was uncatalyst hydrolyzed with different amounts of water at room temperature and was found to react in a 1:1.6 ratio (mole of Ti:mole of H_{2}O). It was found that the condensation following the hydrolysis reaction was alcohol condensation. The hydrolysis-condensation product was characterized in detail by GC, Karl-Fischer coulometric titrator, NIR-spectroscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy, TG-DTA and elemental analysis. The hydrolysis-condensation product of titanium(IV)-n-propoxide was calcinated at 900 °C after drying …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Synthesis of new 1,2,4-tri and 1,3,4-thiadiazoles, bearing isomeric pyridyl and 1-naphthyl is reported using 1,4-disubstituted thiosemicarbazides in alkaline and acidic media, respectively. The methylthio and benzylthio derivatives of the synthesized triazoles are also reported. All of the synthesized compounds were characterized by their FT-IR, ^{1}H-NMR and mass spectral data. The antibacterial studies of some of the synthesized compounds against S. aureus} and E. coli} as MIC values are reported. None of them have important antibacterial activities.
