Study Of The Polymerization Of Methyl Methacrylate Initiated By Thioxanthone Derivatives: A Magnetic Field Effect, Sevnur Keski̇n, Meral Aydin, Igor Khudyakov, Nergi̇z Arsu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Free radical photopolymerization of methyl methacrylate (MMA) initiated by 2-mercaptothioxanthone (TX-SH), thioxanthone-thioacetic acid (TXSCH_2COOH), and thioxanthone-carboxymethoxy acetic acid (TXOCH_2COOH) as so called one-component initiators was performed with and without an external magnetic field (MF). These initiators contain light-absorbing and electron/hydrogen-donating fragments in one molecule and do not require an additional hydrogen donor, and initiate the polymerization of MMA in the air. Polymerization experiments were performed in solutions with 3 different optical densities at \lambda 365 nm, where the photoinitiator absorbs. It was observed that application of MF leads to both larger conversion and higher molecular weight of the prepared PMMA, …

Water-Gas Shift Reaction Over Bimetallic Pt-Ni/Al_2o_3 Catalysts, Burcu Selen Çağlayan, Ahmet Erhan Aksoylu Jan 2009

Water-Gas Shift Reaction Over Bimetallic Pt-Ni/Al_2o_3 Catalysts, Burcu Selen Çağlayan, Ahmet Erhan Aksoylu

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

The water-gas shift (WGS) activity of bimetallic Pt-Ni/Al_2O_3 catalysts was investigated in the temperature range 200-450 °C using an idealized feed composition consisting of 3% CO and 6%-10% H_2O. The effects of the Ni content, space velocity, and H_2O/CO ratio on the catalytic performance of the catalysts were studied. An increase in the Ni content and H_2O/CO ratio shifted the carbon monoxide conversion--temperature curve toward lower reaction temperatures. No detectable methane formation was observed in the catalytic reaction tests. The results indicate that Pt-Ni/Al_2O_3 catalysts are highly selective and active for water-gas shift reactions under idealized conditions.

Hydrogen Storage Via Physisorption: The Combined Role Of Adsorption Enthalpy And Entropy, Carlos Otero Arean, Barbara Bonelli, Montserrat Rodriguez Delgado, Edoardo Garrone

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Materials capable of cost-effective on-board hydrogen storage and delivery are currently being sought worldwide as a means to facilitate a hydrogen-based energy transition in the transportation sector. Among the solutions proposed, hydrogen storage by physisorption on porous solids constitutes a main avenue of research, and for intelligent design of such materials a detailed knowledge of gas adsorption thermodynamics is of the utmost importance. Analysis of the available data for hydrogen adsorption on alkali and alkaline-earth cation exchanged zeolites clearly shows that standard adsorption enthalpy (\Delta H^0) and entropy (\Delta S^0) are correlated, in the sense that larger \Delta S^0 values …

The conformational and configurational behavior and the structure of N-2-(1,4-dioxane)-N'-(p-methylbenzenesulfonyl)-O- (p-methylphenoxy) isourea (1) were studied using dynamic NMR. The endo-anomeric effect, hydrogen bonding, temperature, and polarity of solvent control the population of dioxane ring conformers or anomers but not the configuration interconversion of the imine of the imidoyl moiety. Dynamic ^1H-NMR, \Delta H°, \Delta S°, \Delta G°, and \Delta G^{\ddag} analysis of 1 demonstrates that the dioxane ring adopts the chair conformation, that the imidoyl amino group prefers axial conformation, and that the tosyl and tolyl groups about the C=N bond retain the E configuration.

A series of 9 new (E)-thiazachalcones (1-3), and their N-alkyl substituted derivatives (4-6), and stereoselective dimerization products (7-9) were synthesized, then tested for antimicrobial activity against all test microorganisms except Pseudomonas aeruginosa. The new compounds (1-6) without dimerization products (7-9) showed good antimicrobial property against Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria monocitogenes, and Enterococcus faecalis. The possible dimerization products of compounds (1-3) were calculated theoretically. Experimental and theoretical calculation showed that \delta-truxinic type dimer is the most stable isomer.
