Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The kinetics of oxidation of 2-hydroxy butyric acid salt (2-HBAS) and 3-hydroxy butyric acid salt (3-HBAS) by ditelluratocuprate(III) (DTC) were studied spectrophotometrically between 298.2 K and 313.2 K in alkaline medium. The reaction rate showed first order dependence in DTC and a fractional order in HBAS. It was found that the pseudo-first order rate constant k_{obs} increased with an increase in the concentration of OH^- and a decrease in the concentration of TeO_{4}^{2-}. The reaction rate changed with the position of the hydroxyl group. There was a negative salt effect. A plausible mechanism involving a pre-equilibrium of adduct formation between …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The bromination of 1-cyclopent-1-en-1-ylbenzene (4) in different solvents and at different temperatures was accompanied by the evolution of hydrogen bromide and yielded 1-(5-bromocyclopent-1-en-1-yl)benzene (8). Further bromination of 8 gave exclusively 2R(S),5R(S)-1-(1,2,5-tribromocyclopentyl)benzene (11). The experimental results were compared with the theoretical ones based on semi-empirical (MM+ and AM1), Hartree-Fock (HF) and density functional theory (DFT). The formation of 11 was explained by the formation of a weakly bridged bromoniun ion of type 9.

Production Of An E. Coli Toxin Protein; Colicin A In E. Coli Using An Inducible System, İsa Gökçe, Jeremy H. Lakey Jan 2003

Production Of An E. Coli Toxin Protein; Colicin A In E. Coli Using An Inducible System, İsa Gökçe, Jeremy H. Lakey

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Colicins are bacterial toxins that kill Escherichia coli and related cells; their mode of action is of interest in protein import and toxicology. Colicins translocate across the E. coli outer membrane and periplasm by interacting with several receptors. This translocation process involves interaction of the colicin with the outer membrane porin OmpF and subsequently with the integral membrane protein TolA. The N-terminal domain of colicin N is involved in the import process. Our aim was to produce a large quantity of colicin A for functional and structural studies. It is a prerequisite to have a correctly folded and stable protein …

Effect Of Polyoxyethylene Chain Length And Electrolyte On The Viscosity Of Mixed Micelles, Hali̇de Akbaş, Tali̇ha Si̇di̇m, Mehmet İşcan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The viscosity measurements of micelles composed of mixtures of anionic/nonionic surfactants were carried out as a function of the mole fraction of surfactants. The systems studied were sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS)-polyoxyethylene lauryl ether (C_{12}POE_{n} n = 4, 10 and 23) in water and 0.1 M sodium chloride solution. In the single systems, the relative viscosity of nonionic surfactant is greater than that of SDS, and increases with the increasing level of ethylene oxide. In the mixed surfactant systems, the relative viscosities vary at the mixed molar fraction of SDS, between 0.2 and 0.3, and then the relative viscosities of mixed …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

A new method for the indirect determination of salicylhydroxamic acid (SHAM) using atomic absorption spectrometry (AAS) was proposed. The method is based on precipitating the ion associate complex of SHAM with [Cu (NH_{3})_{4}]^{2+}. The excess, unreacted, Cu^{2+} ions were determined using AAS. Another spectrophotometric method based on measuring the absorbance of the formed [Cu (NH_{3})_{4}]-SHAM complex in dioxane was proposed. The green color of the complex formed was measured at 330 nm. The two methods were successfully used for determining SHAM in its pure and pharmaceutical dosage forms. Using AAS, the drug was determined over a concentration range of 3.06 …

Vibrational Spectroscopic Studies On Trans-1,4-Polychloroprene, V. Arjunan, S. Subramanian, S. Mohan

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Fourier transform infrared and Raman spectra of trans-1,4-polychloroprene have been recorded in the range of 4000-400 and 3500-100 cm^{-1}, respectively. In the present investigation, detailed assignments of the observed fundamental bands of trans-1,4-polychloroprene were analysed in terms of peak positions and relative intensities. In the hope of providing more effective information on the fundamental vibrations, a normal coordinate analysis was performed on trans-1,4-polychloroprene, by assuming C_{S} symmetry. The simple general valance force field (SGVFF) was employed in normal coordinate analysis and to calculate the potential energy distribution (PED) for each fundamental vibration.

The Effect Of Tert-Butylhydroperoxide On The Thiol Redox Status In Human Erythrocytes And The Protective Role Of Glucose And Antioxidants, Yasemi̇n Aksoy, İ. Hamdi̇ Öğüş, Nazmi̇ Özer

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

For survival, living cells maintain their thiol redox status within acceptable limits by three different mechanisms: i. glutathione disulfide export, ii. reduction of glutathione disulfide by pentose phosphate pathway and, iii. reduction of glutathione disulfide by Protein-SH. To assess the relative contribution of each one of the systems, intracellular [glutathione], [glutathione disulfide] and their export, in fresh and aged erythrocytes subjected to oxidative stress, in \pm glucose and \pm antioxidants, were measured. Glutathione was rapidly oxidized by tert-butylhydroperoxide in \pm glucose in both groups. The regeneration of glutathione, in both groups, in \pm glucose was about 100 and 50%, respectively. …

A Novel, Semi-Pilot Scale Electrolysis System For The Production Of P-Aminophenol, Kamran Polat

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Cyclic voltammetry (CV) and preparative electrolysis techniques were used to investigate the reduction of nitrobenzene into (NB) p-aminophenol (p-Ap).
