Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Novel, nonperipherally tetrasubstituted cationic metal-free and metallophthalocyanines (Zn, In) were synthesized in the present study. The binding constants, the disappearance of quenching effect of all cationic phthalocyanines on the fluorescence intensity of SYBR Green--disodium salt of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from calf thymus complex, and the changes in T$_{m}$ of double helix DNA with thermal denaturation profile were investigated by UV-Vis and fluorescence spectrophotometric methods. To investigate the spontaneity of the reactions between DNA and novel quaternized phthalocyanines in buffer, thermodynamic parameters were employed.

Adsorption behavior of the zwitterionic phospholipid dipalmitoyl-phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) at the polarizable liquid/liquid interface formed between water and 1,2-dichloroethane electrolyte solutions is studied taking into account both the pH of the aqueous phase and the concentration of the phospholipid in the organic phase by cyclic voltammetry. Experimental results showed that the adsorption of the phospholipid strongly depends on the pH of the aqueous phase, which determines the surface ionization of the polar head of the phospholipid molecule and hence the stability of the adsorbed layer of phospholipids.

Tetrahydronaphthalene As A Precursor Of New Series Of Chalcones, Flavanones, And Flavones, Ahmed Meddeb, Ghalia Bouhalleb, Julien Legros, Farhat Rezgui
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
An efficient synthetic route for a novel series of chalcones 2a-2d as well as for the corresponding flavanones 3a-3d and flavones 4a-4d, using functionalized tetrahydronaphthalene (THN), is described herein. The Claisen-Schmidt condensation of such THN and aromatic aldehydes, in the presence of an aqueous solution of KOH (40%), selectively gives the expected chalcones 2a-2d, which may further undergo an intramolecular oxa-Michael addition using piperidine, affording the corresponding flavanones 3a-3d in high yields. Alternatively, treatment of such chalcones 2a-2d with I$_{2}$/DMSO provides rapidly, in a one-pot oxidative cyclization, a series of flavones 4a-4d in excellent yields ranging from 85% to 90%.

1-Methyl-2-(2-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)benzylidene)hydrazine analogues were readily prepared in good yields by the reaction of 2-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)benzaldehydes and methyl hydrazine. The reaction tolerates a variety of substituents on the 2-hydroxybenzaldehyde to form nitro-, halo-, methoxy-, and naphthyl-substituted 1-methyl-2-(2-(prop-2-yn-1-yloxy)benzylidene)hydrazines. The in vitro antioxidant capacity measurements revealed that among all the analyzed hydrazine analogues that surpassed the Trolox standard, 1-(2-(but-3-ynyl)-5-nitrobenzylidene)-2-methylhydrazine had the maximum value, which was approximately 1.7 times that of Trolox.

The imperative demand for antibacterial agents and enzyme inhibitors prompted us to synthesize some new compounds, 6a-6k, bearing multifunctional moieties. The target acetamides were derived from 4-phenyl-5-(1-tosylpiperidin-4-yl)-4$H$-1,2,4-triazole-3-thiol (3). The structural analysis was carried out using modern spectroscopic techniques including IR, NMR, and EIMS spectral analysis. The antibacterial activity was screened against five bacterial strains including three gram-negative and two gram-positive ones. Enzyme inhibition was carried out against lipoxygenase enzyme and results were supported by in silico study. The synthesized compounds were proved to be potent antibacterial agents and enzyme inhibitors.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The ability of oxime-containing acetylcholinesterase reactivators BT-07 (K005), BT-08 (K033), BT-07-4M (K074), and obidoxime (H$_{2}$LX$_{2}$, X = Cl$^{-}$, Br$^{-})$ to bind palladium(II) or platinum(II) cations was evaluated in aqueous solutions (pH 7.4) at metal-to-ligand molar ratio varying from 1:10 to 10:1. Spectral changes were monitored within a week after mixing the reagents in the range from 220 nm to 500 nm. Results showed that depending on chemical structure and reaction time, oximes form two complex species of composition, [MHL]$^{3+}$ or [M$_{2}$L]$^{4+}$ (M = Pd(II), Pt(II)). It was also found that complexation of platinum(II) ions proceeds slower as compared to palladium(II). …

A Novel Hypobromous Acid Scavenging Activity Assay Using $P$-Cresol As A Spectrofluorometric Probe, Burcu Bekdeşer, Gülüzar Zeytünlü, Mustafa Özyürek, Mustafa Reşat Apak
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
In this study, a novel spectrofluorometric assay based on $p$-cresol (4-methyl phenol) probe is developed for the measurement of HOBr scavenging activity. It is the first study involving the use of a $p$-cresol probe for the determination of the HOBr scavenging activity of biothiols. While the $p$-cresol probe ($\lambda_{ex}$ = 260 nm, $\lambda_{em}$ = 305 nm) has fluorescence characteristics, its brominated derivatives emerging at the end of the oxidation reaction with HOBr do not show fluorescence. The initial fluorescence intensity of the $p$-cresol probe is decreased in the presence of the brominating agent, HOBr, and this decrease is lower in …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
ZnO powder was synthesized via a hydrothermally assisted sol-gel method. Synthesis variables including Zn-precursor type, pH value, time, and temperature of hydrothermal treatment were analyzed using the Taguchi approach. The experimental procedures were defined based on the L9 array for four variables in three levels. The influences of those variables on the response parameters, i.e. crystallite size, crystallinity, band gap energy ($E_{g})$, and degradation constants ($k)$, were evaluated. XRD results and $E_{g}$ values showed that ZnO wurtzite appeared to be the only crystalline phase in the samples. Taguchi analysis predicted that the optimized conditions to achieve the highest photoactivity are …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
PbO$_{2}$-MnO$_{2}$ electrodes were prepared by electrochemical codeposition methods.

We prepared novel unsymmetrical A$_{3}$B-type zinc and cobalt phthalocyanines bearing monocarboxylic acid groups on peripheral positions using statistical condensation method, especially designed to anchor on the TiO$_{2}$ semiconductor surface. The novel complexes were anchored on TiO$_{2}$ semiconductor to prepare effective dye sensitized photoactive composites as heterogeneous catalysts. The results indicated that modified TiO$_{2}$ nanocrystals possessed only the anatase phase and MPc-TiO$_{2}$ photocatalysts with loading amount of dye ca. 8.27 $\mu $mol/g TiO$_{2}$ exhibit strong visible light absorption. Photocatalytic degradation of 4-chlorophenol (4-CP) under illumination with visible light ($\lambda >$ 400 nm) was tested with the composites prepared. The degradation profile …

Nickel ferrite magnetic nanoparticles (NiFe$_{2}$O$_{4}$ MNPs) were prepared via the autocombustion assisted sol-gel method. The efficient catalyst was investigated by FT-IR, XRD, ICP, SEM, and TEM techniques. A one-pot, three-component reaction is reported for the synthesis of substituted 4$H$-chromenes in the presence of NiFe$_{2}$O$_{4}$ MNPs as a reusable catalyst in a green solvent at 40 $^{\circ}$C under clean, efficient, and mild conditions. Furthermore, selected products were characterized by FT-IR, $^{1}$H NMR, and $^{13}$C NMR. The single-crystal X-ray analysis of product 4u was also conclusively confirmed. Easy workup procedure, high purity of products via simple recrystallization, and environmentally benign conditions are …

The aim of this study was to determine natural radioactive and heavy element concentrations in Mersin drinking water samples before the commissioning of the Akkuyu nuclear power plant and to collect data for possible environmental contaminations in the future. Drinking water samples were taken from the provincial center, districts, and populated villages. The annual effective dose of natural radionuclides and cancer risks were calculated for each person living in the city. Hazard index and cancer risk were calculated, which were caused by heavy elements. Mean gross alpha and beta radioactivity concentrations in drinking water were 0.059 Bq/L and 0.120 Bq/L, …
