Synthesis And Photochromism Of New Asymmetrical Diarylethenes With A Variable Heteroaryl Ring And A Quinoline Unit, Hongyan Xu, Renjie Wang, Congbin Fan, Gang Liu, Shouzhi Pu
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Three new asymmetrical photochromic diarylethenes containing a variable heteroaryl ring and a quinoline unit were synthesized and their structures were determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Their properties, including photochromism, acidichromism, and fluorescence, were investigated systematically. For these diarylethenes, the one with an indole moiety had the largest absorption maximum, cyclization quantum yield, photoconversion ratio, emission peak, and fluorescent modulation efficiency. In addition, these diarylethenes exhibited an evident dual switching behavior induced by the stimulation of acid/base and UV/Vis. Addition of trifluoroacetic acid to solution of the diarylethenes produced protonated derivatives with notable changes in their absorption spectra. These results …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Molecular and electronic structures of a novel Al$_{30}$O$_{30}$ star-shaped alumina nanocage (SANC) were studied using the recently developed CAM-B3LYP density functional method. Comparison of the stretching vibrational modes of this compound with the corresponding modes related to an Al$_{20}$O$_{30}$ perfect cage and Al$_{50}$O$_{75}$ tubular alumina nanomaterials showed a shift to lower frequencies, while the bending modes moved to higher frequencies. The highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) of the SANC had 65% nonbonding character, whereas the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) was 72% antibonding. The HOMO and LUMO of the SANC arose mostly from Al 3s and 2p atomic orbitals. The …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The present paper describes the use of a disposable pencil graphite electrode (PGE) for the voltammetric determination of famotidine. Cyclic voltammetric studies using different supporting electrolytes emphasized an irreversible oxidation of famotidine on the PGE. The electrode process is diffusion-controlled and pH-dependent. Differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) in phosphate buffer solution of pH 6.81 was employed for famotidine's quantitative determination. The anodic peak current of famotidine varies linearly with the analyte concentration in the range 4.72 $\times $ 10$^{-7}$--4.95 $\times $ 10$^{-4}$ M. Detection and quantification limits were 1.51 $\times $ 10$^{-7}$ M and 5.04 $\times $ 10$^{-7}$ M famotidine, respectively. …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Polyacrylamide--montmorillonite (PAAm-Mt) and polyacrylamide--clinoptilolite (PAAm-Z) composites were prepared by cross-linked polymerization of acrylamide in dispersions of Mt and Z. The composites were characterized by FT-IR, SEM, XRD, CEC, and PZC analysis. The adsorptive features of PAAm-Mt and PAAm-Z for methylene blue (MB) were investigated by their relevance to initial dye concentration, temperature, contact time, PZC, and pH. The monolayer adsorption capacities were 0.14 and 0.08 mol kg$^{-1}$ for PAAm-Z and PAAm-Mt, respectively. The changes in pH of MB solution had an insignificant influence on their adsorption capacities. The values of enthalpy and entropy changes were positive ($\Delta $H$_{PAAm-Mt}$ = 7.6 …

The Role Of N-Heterocyclic Carbene Substituents On Ruthenium(Ii) Complexes In The Catalytic Transfer Hydrogenation Of Acetophenone, Muhammet Emi̇n Günay, Gülcan Gençay Çoğaşlioğlu
Turkish Journal of Chemistry
The novel ruthenium(II) complexes [RuCl$_{2}$(NHC)($p$-cymene)], \textbf{3a}--\textbf{e}, containing 1-alkyl-3-benzylimidazol-2-ylidene ligands were prepared.

Two types of polymer-grafted silica based on polyvinylimidazole Bronsted acidic ionic liquids were prepared and used as new heterogeneous catalysts for the preparation of pharmaceutically important quinoxaline derivatives. These catalysts were characterized by thermogravimetric analysis, FT-IR spectroscopy, and titration. They could be recycled without considerable loss in their catalytic activity. High efficiency of the catalysts along with short reaction times, high yields, easy purification, recyclability, and simple procedure are among the advantages of these catalytic systems.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A simple and efficient one-pot synthesis of novel thieno[3',2':5,6]pyrimido[1,2-a]quinoline-2-carboxylates (5a-d) and their spirooxindole derivatives (12a-d) was accomplished. Thus, the Michael addition reaction of the cyclic $\beta $-enaminone 3 with the corresponding $\alpha ,\beta $-unsaturated nitrile derivatives 4a-d in refluxing EtOH in the presence of piperidine afforded 5a-d in good yields. On the other hand, spirooxindole derivatives 12a-d were synthesized by the reaction of cyclic $\beta $-enaminone 3 with the corresponding 3-cyanomethylidene-2-oxoindoles 11a-d in refluxing EtOH.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
A series of novel thiazoles and 1,3-thiazine derivatives were synthesized in good yield via reaction of ethyl 3-(1-(2-thiocarbamoylhydrazono)ethyl)-1,5-diphenyl-1$H$-pyrazole-4-carboxylate with hydrazonoyl halides and arylidenemalononitriles, respectively. The structure of the newly synthesized products was elucidated via elemental analysis, spectral data, and alternative routes whenever possible. Moreover, the antiviral screening of the products was evaluated and the results revealed that some of them have strong to moderate potency against the rabies virus compared with the reference drug.

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
In the present study, ZnO nanostructures were ultrasonically synthesized and immobilized on the surface of diatomite and used for visible light photocatalysis of Acid Red 88 (AR88) in the aqueous phase. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and X-ray diffraction (XRD) analyses were employed for characterization of the samples. The process was optimized via response surface methodology (RSM) on the basis of central composite design (CCD). Based on numerical optimization, for the maximized color removal of 96% the initial dye concentration, the catalyst dosage, the reaction time, and the initial pH were 13 mg/L, 1.5 g/L, 85 min, and 4, respectively. The …

The monomers p-biphenyloxycarbonylphenyl acrylate (BPCPA) and p-biphenyloxycarbonylphenyl methacrylate (BPCPMA) were synthesized by the reaction of p-acryloyloxybenzoyl chloride and p-methacryloyloxybenzoyl chloride with 4-hydroxybiphenyl, respectively, and polymerized by bulk polymerization in vacuum by using dicumyl peroxide. The graft copolymerization of the monomers onto polypropylene were carried out by bulk melt polymerization at 170 $^{\circ}$C with various concentration levels of the monomers and the initiator in reaction mixtures. The content of monomers in their graft coproducts increased with monomer-initiator percentage in the reaction medium. The graft coproducts were characterized by several available experimental techniques including differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry
Hydroxybenzoic acids (HBAs) and their anions play an important role in the food and pharmaceutical industries because of their antioxidant activity. In this study, we examined the mechanisms of the free radical scavenging action of HBAs and their anions using density functional theory (DFT) methods. Reaction enthalpies related to the mechanisms of free radical scavenging by the investigated species were calculated by DFT methods in water, DMSO, pentylethanoate, and benzene. Hydrogen atom transfer (HAT) is a preferred reaction pathway in benzene, while sequential proton loss electron transfer (SPLET) is a predominant reaction pathway in polar solvents, water, and DMSO for …

A series of 38 new acylhydrazones [3-40], derived from (2$S)$-4-(methylsulfanyl)-2-[[(4-methylphenyl)sulfonyl] amino]butanoic acid hydrazide [2], were synthesized and evaluated for their anti-HIV and antimicrobial activity with the further aim to develop acylhydrazones carrying an amino acid side chain. All tested compounds possess stronger activity against gram (+) bacteria. Compound 23 was found active against methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) with a MIC value of 3.9 $\mu $g/mL. The MIC value of compound 30 against Enterococcus faecalis, Listeria monocytogenes, and Bacillus cereus was 8 $\mu $g/mL.
