Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Grafting of acrylamide (AAm) onto kappa-carrageenan (KC) was carried out using microwave irradiation in the presence of ammonium persulfate (APS) as initiator. The effect of reaction variables including the concentration of APS, AAm, and KC; time duration; and microwave power was studied. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were carried out to characterize the graft copolymer. The graft copolymer possesses slightly sensitive activities to external pH and shows reversible on--off switching swelling characteristics.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Eosin-Y exhibits high affinity and emission based spectral response to most of the major ions in water samples. In the present study we performed selective spectrofluorimetric analysis of manganese with eosin-Y in the presence of potential interferents. We employed green chemistry reagents, ionic liquids (ILs) and two different micelles, to suppress the effect of conventional cations and anions on the response of eosin-Y. The experimental data revealed that different test moieties caused enhanced analytical response to Mn$^{2+}$. The highest analytical signal of eosin-Y was obtained in the presence of Triton X-100 at a concentration of 2.0 $\times $ 10$^{-3}$ mol …

The Role Of N-Heterocyclic Carbene Substituents On Ruthenium(Ii) Complexes In The Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation Of Acetophenone, Muhammet Emi̇n Günay, Gülcan Gençay Çoğaşlioğlu
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The novel ruthenium(II) complexes [RuCl$_{2}$(NHC)($p$-cymene)], \textbf{3a}--\textbf{e}, containing 1-alkyl-3-benzylimidazol-2-ylidene ligands were prepared. All synthesized compounds were characterized by NMR spectroscopy and elemental analyses. Ru(II)-NHC complexes were tested as catalysts for the transfer hydrogenation of acetophenone, showing modest to high activity in this reaction. The results revealed that efficiencies depend on the substituents of the benzene ring of the benzyl on the N atom of the NHC ring.

Synthetic Protocols On 6$H$-Benzo[$C$]Chromen-6-Ones: A Review, Ofentse Mazimba
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
6$H$-Benzo[$c$]chromen-6-ones serve as core structures of secondary metabolites and are of considerable pharmacological importance. Natural sources produce limited quantities, hence the need for synthetic procedures for 6$H$-benzo[$c$]chromen-6-ones, which are herein reviewed. The literature describes protocols such as the Suzuki coupling reactions for the synthesis of biaryl, which then undergoes lactonization, reactions of 3-formylcoumarin (chromenones) with 1,3-bis(silylenol ethers), radical mediated cyclization of arylbenzoates, metal or base catalyzed cyclization of phenyl-2-halobenzoates and 2-halobenzyloxyphenols, and benzoic acid coupling with benzoquinone using electrophilic metal-based catalyst. The efficient and simple procedures are those involving the reactions of Michael acceptor (chromenones and chalcones) with 1,3- and …

V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ and K$_{2}$O-V$_{2}$O$_{5}$ impregnated MgAl$_{2}$O$_{4}$ catalysts were prepared and tested for the oxidative dehydrogenation of propane. The as-synthesized catalysts were characterized by using the XRD, BET, NH$_{3}$-TPD, TPR, and XPS methods. The catalytic tests were performed in a fixed bed tubular quartz reactor system between 450 and 550 $^{\circ}$C. It was observed that the conversion of propane increased but hydrocarbon selectivity decreased with increasing temperature over the V$_{2}$O$_{5}$/MgAl$_{2}$O$_{4}$ catalysts. The BET surface area values and surface acidities decreased upon potassium addition for the K-V$_{2}$O$_{5}$/MgAl$_{2}$O$_{4}$ catalysts, which resulted in a drastic drop in the conversion values obtained. The propylene and total …

hydrophobic filler containing epoxy matrix composites was investigated by keeping them in distilled water for 9 months. Aerosil R812 (8 nm) and Aerosil R972 (12 nm) were utilized at 3{\%} and 5{\%} w/w filler to resin ratio and the resin/filler mixture was combined with 12-ply carbon fabric to get 15 $\times $ 15 cm samples. Samples were molded under a hot press and for each sample 50 test samples obtained by cutting them with a water jet. The obtained samples were characterized by TG, FTIR, and SEM. The effect of water absorption was evaluated by measuring percentage water absorption and …
