A novel Ag(I) dinuclear complex {[(C_6H_5)(C_5H_4N)-C=N-N=C- (C_5H_4N)(C_6H_5)]Ag}_2.ClO_4(ClO_4) (1/2CH_3CN) (1) that was derived under mild conditions, during the course of combination of AgClO_4 with a polymorphic azine ligand, 1,4-diphenyl-1,4-bis(2-pyridyl)-2,3- diaza-1,3-butadiene (L) (condensed product of phenyl 2-pyridyl ketone and hydrazine monohydrate) is reported. The aforementioned complex is based on a central rotationally flexible diazine subunit (N-N). The azine ligand, L, having the N_2 dinucleating fragment, provides a coordination focus for pairs of metal centres and ultimately leads to the formation of a 6-membered chelate ring in 1.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The electro-oxidation of mefenamic acid, diclofenac, and indomethacin on glassy carbon and alumina nanoparticle-modified glassy carbon electrodes in a phosphate buffer solution at physiological pH was studied. The techniques of cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry, impedance spectroscopy, and steady state polarization measurements were applied. The drugs were irreversibly oxidized on bath electrodes via an anodic peak and the process was controlled by diffusion in the bulk of solution. Alumina nanoparticles increased the oxidation current, and lowered the peak and onset potentials. As such, alumina nanoparticles had an electrocatalytic effect, both kinetically and thermodynamically. The kinetic parameters of heterogeneous electron transfer and diffusion …

An Investigation Of Energy Transfer Between Coumarin 35 And Xanthene Derivatives In Liquid Medium, Mahmut Toprak, Mustafa Arik

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The energy transfer between coumarin 35 (C35) and pyronin compounds, which are xanthene derivatives, i.e. pyronin B (PyB) and pyronin Y (PyY), in methanol was investigated at room temperature by using steady-state absorption, emission, and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy. Fluorescence energy transfer rate constants (k_T) and critical radius (R_0) were determined for C35-PyB and C35-PyY molecular pairs in methanol. The obtained values of k_T and R_0 indicated that the dipole-dipole interaction between C35-PyB and C35-PyY molecular pairs accounted for the energy transfer mechanism. The energy transfer efficiency and the distance between the donor and acceptor (r) were also calculated for donor-acceptor …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The main problem associated with metal hexacyanoferrates (MHCFs) is their instability at high pH values. We synthesized a new Prussian Blue analogue, Nile-Blue hexacyanoferrate (NBHCF), that remains stable in 0.2 M KOH. A carbon paste (CPE) chemically modified electrode (ME) containing NBHCF was prepared as a stable electrochemical sensor for measuring hydrazine. A detailed characterization of the electrochemical and electrocatalytic behavior of NBHCF was performed using cyclic voltammetric, chronoamperometric, differential pulse voltammetric (DPV) and hydrodynamic amperometric methods. The NBHCF-modified electrode produced reproducible redox peaks and resulted in a linear increase in the oxidation signal of hydrazine with increasing concentration of …

This paper presents a chelating agent free solid phase extraction (CAF-SPE) method for the separation and/or preconcentration of trace iron(III) ions. This method is based on the sorption of Fe(III) ions without using any chelating agent onto Amberlyst 36 resin. A good relative standard deviation (3%), high recovery (>95%), high enrichment factor (100), and low detection limit (0.32 \mu g L^{-1}) were obtained. The adsorption capacity of resin was 117 mg g^{-1} for iron(III). The method was applied for the determination of iron various in water and commercial tea bag samples. The accuracy of the method was confirmed by …

Kinetics of the hydrolysis of 3-(2'-chloro-6'-fluorobenzyl) isocoumarin (1), 3-(4'-fluorophenyl)isocoumarin (3), 3-(2'- fluorophenyl)isocoumarin (5), 3-(2'-chlorophenyl)isocoumarin (7), and 3-(4'-chlorophenyl)isocoumarin (9) were studied spectrophotometrically in the presence of aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide. The rates of hydrolyses for these isocoumarins were compared. The data for isocoumarin (1) were further investigated to probe the reaction mechanism. The dependence of pseudo-first order rate constant k_{obs} on hydroxide ion concentration is fitted by the expression k_{obs} = k_o + k_1[OH] + k_2 [OH]^2, showing the formation of monoanionic and dianionic tetrahedral intermediates during the course of reaction. The magnitude of k_o shows significant participation of solvent …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The crystal structure of (E)-3-[(3-(Trifluoromethyl)phenylimino)- methyl]benzene-1,2-diol was determined using X-ray diffraction and the molecular structure was investigated with density functional theory (DFT). The X-ray study showed that the title compound has a strong intramolecular O-H...N hydrogen bond and 3-dimensional crystal networks are primarily determined by O-H...O intermolecular hydrogen bonds and weak van der Waals interactions. The strong O-H...N bond is evidence of the preference for the phenol-imine tautomeric form in the solid state. Optimized molecular geometry was calculated with DFT at the B3LYP/6-31G(d,p) level. The results from both experiment and theoretical calculations for the title compound are compared with each …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

An efficient one-pot method for the synthesis of 1,4-dihydropyridines from \beta-dicarbonyl compounds, aldehyde, and ammonium acetate is reported using sulfonic acid-functionalized silica at 90 °C under solvent-free conditions with good to excellent yields. The catalyst is easily prepared, stable (up to 300 °C), reusable, and efficiently used under reaction conditions.


Synthesis And Surfactant Properties Of N-Acylation Compounds Derived From Hydrolysis Degradation Products Of N-(\Beta-Cianoethyl)-\Epsilon-Caprolactam, Andreea Bondarev Jan 2010

Synthesis And Surfactant Properties Of N-Acylation Compounds Derived From Hydrolysis Degradation Products Of N-(\Beta-Cianoethyl)-\Epsilon-Caprolactam, Andreea Bondarev

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

N-acyl amino acids can be used as active surface agents in the detergents industry, as well as in the pharmaceutical industry and cosmetics. Properties of these compounds are superior to those of fatty acids soaps and they are not toxic to the environment and have low Kraft points, because of peptide bonds (CO-NH). Acylation at the nitrogen atom can be performed with good yields without catalysts, for strong nucleophilic derivatives. The synthesis of some derivatives of 4-azasebacic acid, which are hydrolysis degradation products from N-(\beta -cianoethyl)-\epsilon -caprolactam, has been described and the N-acylation processes for these compounds are also presented. …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Mesoporous Ba/MCM-41 type materials (Ba/MCM-41) with high Ba/Si molar ratios between 0.025 and 0.1 were synthesized by direct hydrothermal synthesis. The samples were characterized by XRD, nitrogen adsorption, TGA-DTA, FTIR, SEM-EDS, and TEM techniques. BET surface areas of samples with various Ba loadings were found between 722 and 931 m^2/g with 28 Å average pore size, which is consistent with the pore size of 30 Å for pure MCM-41 samples synthesized by the same procedure. The crystal structures of synthesized MCM-41 and Ba/MCM-41 were confirmed by XRD analysis. Among the investigated Ba/MCM-41 samples, the formation of barium oxide and barium …
