Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The interactions of Sc(III) and Y(III) ions with salicyclic acid, SA (H_2L), were studied in aqueous solution by means of potentiometric and spectroscopic methods. The binding of SA occurs in Y(III):SA system, either in (1:1) or (1:2) mole ratios. The stability constants of the mono protonated complex, YHL^{2+}, and Y(HL)_2^+ type complex were calculated. The coordination of Sc(III) to SA was defined by means of Job's plot and its formation curve. The stability constants of ScL^+ and Sc(HL)L type complexes were determined by analysis of the potentiometric data; the coordination of SA to Sc(III) occurred through carboxylate and phenolic oxygens. …

Conformational energy-minimization of the Sea Anemone and Sea Pansy neuropeptide Pol-RFamide (Glu^1-Leu^2-Leu^3-Gly^4-Gly^5-Arg^6-Phe^7-NH_2) was carried out by molecular mechanics (MM). The linkage bonds were characterized by the torsion angles \theta, \psi and \omega and the side groups were characterized by the torsion angles \chi_1, \chi_2, \chi_3\ldots The energy-map for each monopeptide of the Pol-RFamide I was drawn in the range of -180° to 180° with increments of 20°. Conformation facilities for monopeptides were determined from these maps. These results were used in the analysis of the dipeptide (Glu^1-Leu^2). Then, the (Glu^1-Leu^2-Leu^3) tripeptide was examined using the calculated results for the dipeptide. …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Fifteen amidrazone derivatives (six being new compounds) were synthesized and their proton magnetic resonance spectra were recorded in trifluoroacetic acid (TFA). The protonation shifts, related to alkyl groups and observed on comparison of the spectra run in a neutral solvent and TFA, were attributed to an amidinium-type resonance of the resulting cations in the acidic medium.

Thin Layer Chromatographic Separation And Quantitation Of L-Dopa And L-Tyrosine In Mixtures, Gülendem Günendi̇, Farünni̇sa Pamuk

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A new TLC separation and quantitation method for L-tyrosine and L-Dopa mixtures was developed. The minimum tyrosine and Dopa quantities which can be measured by this technique are 0.7 and 1.5 \mu g respectively. The method may be used to measure the kinetic parameters of polyphenoloxidase as well as to trace the enzyme catalyzed conversion of L-tyrosine into L-Dopa. For a set of 20 measurements the maximum difference between any two measurements of spot areas was found to be 3 mm^2 (4.5\%) for L-Dopa (4 \mu g) and 2mm^2 (5.6\%) for L-tyrosine (1\mu g).

The amounts of hydrogen gas produced at different times on the cathodes at a constant potential (5V) were measured and the hydrogen yield was calculated. The resulting scheme has been very helpful to obtain wodified electrocatalytic coating and electrode structures at Ptz cathode, able to …


Reaction Mechanism And Kinetics Of Aqueous Solutions Of Primary And Secondary Alkanolamines And Carbon Dioxide, Olgac Bavbek, Erdoğan Alper Jan 1999

Reaction Mechanism And Kinetics Of Aqueous Solutions Of Primary And Secondary Alkanolamines And Carbon Dioxide, Olgac Bavbek, Erdoğan Alper

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The mechanism and kinetics of the reaction between aqueous solutions of CO_2 and the alkanolamines 1-amino-2-propanol, 3-amino-1-propanol,2-methyl aminoethanol and 2-ethyl aminoethanol were investigated using a stopped flow technique. It was found that the reaction orders according to power law kinetics were between 1.1 and 2.0, depending on the alkanolamine and the concentration ranges investigated. This fractional order was therefore considered to be further evidence that carbamate formation takes place according to a zwitterion mechanism rather than a one-step reaction. The kinetic rate parameters for these alkanolamines were evaluated from experimental data at 303 K according to this mechanism.

The results revealed that the presence of redox mediators formed by preliminary electrode anodization is crucial for the process of oxidation of aromatic compounds and imposes a different oxidation route for the aliphatic hydroxyl derivatives. The effect of preanodization has been related to the formation and dissolution of the corresponding higher …

The reactions of 1-Amino-pyrimidine derivatives (1) and some 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds (2) were realized in the presence of p-toluensulfonic acid catalyst to give convenient enamine (3) and/or imine derivatives (4). In the same way, the enamine (5) and/or imine derivatives (6) were synthesized using (1) and 1,3-indanedione which is one of the different 1,3-dicarbonyl compounds. The molecular structures of all the prepared compounds were determined by ^1H-nmr, ^{13}C-nmr, i.r. spectra and elemental analyses, and were drawn by taking imine-enamine tautomerism into account.


A Modified Potentiometric Method For The Estimation Of Phenol In Aqueous Systems, Farhat Huma, Muhammad Jaffar, Khalid Masud Jan 1999

A Modified Potentiometric Method For The Estimation Of Phenol In Aqueous Systems, Farhat Huma, Muhammad Jaffar, Khalid Masud

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A modified potentiometric titration is proposed for the estimation of phenol in aqueous systems. The method is evolved on the basis of a critical dependence of pH on log V rather than simple V, as used in conventional potentiometric titrations. The method incorporates titrants in a concentration range several orders of magnitude greater than that of phenol in the aqueous phase. Derivative potentiometric curves so obtained provide a clear exposition of the equivalence point and the overall error is found to be between \pm 1.0 and 1.5%. The range of phenol concentration investigated was from 10^{-2} to 10^{-3} M. and …

Autocatalytic Reduction Of Dichloro 5, 10, 15, 20 Tetraphenylporphinatoplatinum(Iv) By 1-Methylimidazole, F. Ece Bulak Jan 1999

Autocatalytic Reduction Of Dichloro 5, 10, 15, 20 Tetraphenylporphinatoplatinum(Iv) By 1-Methylimidazole, F. Ece Bulak

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

It was observed that in toluene solution, excess 1-methyl-imidazole (Melm) reduces dichloro 5, 10, 15, 20 tetraphenyl-porphinatoplatinum(IV) (PtTPPCl_2) to tetraphenylporphinato-platinum(II) (PtTPP) autocatalytically (Fig. 1). There was no Pt(III) intermediate or 1-methylimidazole radical detected by Electron Resonance Spectroscopy (ESR) at 25°C. The reaction was found to be autocatalyzed by the PtTPP product when the 1-methylimidazole to PtTPPCl_2 concentration ratio is about 10^4 or more. From the data obtained it is reasonable to suppose that aggregation of the PtTPP product with PtTPPCl_2 plays an important role in this reduction process.


Xps Investigations On Conducting Polymers, Ş. Süzer, Ö. Bi̇rer, U.A. Sevi̇l, O. Güven Jan 1998

Xps Investigations On Conducting Polymers, Ş. Süzer, Ö. Bi̇rer, U.A. Sevi̇l, O. Güven

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, XPS, was used for the characterization of electrically conducting polymeric materials. In the spectrum of polypyrrole, PPy, the Nls region exhibits two peaks, at 402.0 and 399.8 eV, corresponding to -N$^+$- and -N- moieties, respectively. The intensity of the N$^+$ peak decreases as the material loses its conductivity, hence the ratio of the experimentally derived N$^+$/C atomic ratio correlates exponentially with the measured conductivity. A similar observation also exists between the F$^-$/C atomic ratio both in polypyrrole and polythiophene. In the XPS spectrum of the composite material prepared using polyaniline, PAN and polyvinylchloride, PVC, two different kinds …
