Modification Of Poly(Maleic Anhydride-Co-Styrene) With Hydroxyl Containing Compounds, Oya Gali̇oğlu Atici, Ahmet Akar, Roshan Rahimian

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Soluble and cross-linked poly(maleic anhydride-co-styrene) copolymers were reacted with hydroxyl containing compounds such as salicylic acid, 2-phenyl ethanol, eugenol and paracetamole in acetone or dioxane solution at 50-80°C. The hydrolytic and controlled release behavior of the copolymers containing these compounds in water was studied. The extent of hydrolysis was found to be affected by the type of polymer support as well as time, temperature and the type of supported compound.


Secondary Amine Mediated Ring-Opening Of Tetrahydroimidazo[1,5- B ][1,2,4]Oxadiazol-2(1 H )-Ones, Necdet Coşkun Jan 2001

Secondary Amine Mediated Ring-Opening Of Tetrahydroimidazo[1,5- B ][1,2,4]Oxadiazol-2(1 H )-Ones, Necdet Coşkun

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

5,6,7,7a-Tetrahydroimidazo [1,5- b ][1,2,4]oxadiazol-2(1 H )-ones 1a-g converted to imidazoles in the presence of secondary amines. cis-Imidazooxadiazolones 1d-g gave the imidazoles 4d-g when treated with secondary amines, while the treatment of these compounds with tertiary amines afforded imidazoline 3-oxides 5d-g. In case of 1a-c, where R^1 is a hydrogen, tertiary amines induced elimination to give imidazoles 4a-c. In the case of 1a-c, probable trans elimination caused by triethylamine and pyridine and in the case of 1d-f, a concerted double cis elimination mediated by secondary amines is discussed.

Evidence For A Hybrid Ping Pong-Semirandom Mechanism For Human Jejunal Glutathione Disulfide Reductase, Nazmi̇ Özer, İzzet Hamdi̇ Öğüş Jan 2001

Evidence For A Hybrid Ping Pong-Semirandom Mechanism For Human Jejunal Glutathione Disulfide Reductase, Nazmi̇ Özer, İzzet Hamdi̇ Öğüş

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Initial rate versus substrate concentration, [S], profiles (at pH 7.4, 37^oC) for human jejunal glutathione disulfide reductase indicated partial substrate inhibition by GSSG at fixed [NADPH] \le 40 \mu M. Saturation by NADPH assumed an increasingly sigmoidal character at fixed [GSSG] \ge 20 \mu M. The results were interpreted in terms of a hybrid ping pong-semirandom mechanism proceeding through both E.NADPH (ping pong pathway) and E.GSSG (ordered pathway) complexes. When V(apparent) versus [GSSG] and [NADPH] were plotted, hyperbolic curves were obtained. Plotting 1/Vm(apparent) versus 1/[NADPH] and 1/[GSSG] yielded two lines with different slopes but intersecting at the same point on …

Synthesis And Characterization Of Copper(Ii), Nickel(Ii), Cadmium(Ii), Cobalt(Ii) And Zinc(Ii) Complexes With 2-Benzoyl-3-Hydroxy-1-Naphthylamino-3-Phenyl-2-Propen-1-On, Mehmet Sönmez

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Cu(II), Ni(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Cd(II) complexes of 2-Benzoyl-3-hydroxy-1-naphthylamino-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-on, which is a derivative of carboxamide, were prepared and characterized by elemental, spectral and magnetic methods. Based on the analytical results, electronic and infrared spectral data and magnetic susceptibility measurements, suitable structures have been proposed. The formation of the complexes in solution was investigated conductometrically. 2-Benzoyl-3-hydroxy-1-naphthylamino-3-phenyl-2-propen-1-on was found to be a bidentate ligand coordinating through enolic oxygen and amide nitrogen. The complexes of Co(II) and Ni(II) are proposed to have an octahedral structure, while Cd(II), Cu(II) and Zn(II) are suggested to possess a square-planar environment in the complexes.

Reaction Mechanism And Kinetics Of Aqueous Solutions Of 2-Amino -2 Methyl-1,3- Propanediol And Carbonyl Sulphide, Erdoğan Alper

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The mechanism and kinetics of the reaction between aqueous solutions of COS and a sterically hindered primary amine, 2-amino-2-methyl-1,3-propanediol (AMPD), were investigated at 288-303 K using a stopped-flow technique. It was found that the reaction order according to power law kinetics was between 1.12 and 1.16 for an amine concentration range of 0.5 to 1.5 kmol m^{-3} . This overall order indicated that the thiocarbamate formation was complex and possibly involved a zwitterion intermediate. However, the experimental results can also be explained in terms of a single-step termolecular reaction mechanism. The kinetic rate parameters for aqueous AMPD solutions were obtained …

Silver Recovery From Waste Photographic Films By Using Enzymatic Method, Nuri̇ Naki̇boğlu, Duygu Toscali, İhsan Yaşa

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A different enzymatic method was developed for stripping the silver from waste X-ray photographic films. The silver having purity of > 99% was recovered by smelting the obtained slurry in the presence of borax. Enzyme extract, obtained from Bacillus subtilis ATCC 6633 by modifying Horikoshi medium, was used for stripping the silver layer. The metal impurities (Al, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Ni, Pb and Sn) in the recovered silver were determined using the ICP-MS method. The results were compared those in with literature for high purity silver using the same method.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Films of CdS for photovoltaic devices were electrochemically deposited on tin oxide coated glass substrates at different conditions. The films were found to be smooth and uniform with a small grain size. X-ray diffraction measurement and analysis indicated a hexagonal phase rather than the cubic phase. The surface composition of the films was investigated by Auger Spectroscopy. Electrochemical deposition parameters were studied to obtain the optimum conditions for the best CdS films. Our films are compared from the pinhole number and particulate point of view with the films prepared by other methods.

The offset polariser configuration was operated in both an AMOR and atomic absorption (AA) mode for the noise measurements. Two main interference frequencies were found to occur in all the optical measurement modes. An interference flame feature frequency (15.5 Hz -39.0 Hz) which arose from an ``organ-pipe'' effect in the gas flow through the flame cooling sheets. …
