Prostereoisomerism And Biological Activity: Possible Implications For Drug Design, Sosale Chandrasekhar Jan 2016

Prostereoisomerism And Biological Activity: Possible Implications For Drug Design, Sosale Chandrasekhar

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

Prostereoisomerism (PIM), representing a subgroup within the achiral class of molecules, is manifested in a chiral environment. Although this is regardless of the orientation of the prostereoisomeric (PIC) molecule, PIM is manifested most emphatically in relation to a chiral surface (`two-dimensional chirality'). Then PIM is tantamount to `de facto chirality' as attachment of the PIC molecule to the surface leads to diastereomeric possibilities (cf. Ogston's hypothesis). Furthermore, the formation of host--guest complexes requires a steric complementarity between the component molecules. The fact that the weak dispersive forces involved therein require an optimum distance implies a `snugness of fit' criterion. This …

ZnO was immobilized on the montmorillonite (MMT) to synthesize ZnO/MMT nanocomposite. Physicochemical properties of the as-synthesized nanocomposite were determined using X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, N$_{2}$ adsorption/desorption, and point of zero charge pH (pH$_{pzc})$ analysis. The performance of the prepared ZnO/MMT nanocomposite was examined for the photocatalytic ozonation of Disperse Red 54 (DR54) and the highest decolorization efficiency (88.75{\%} after 60 min of reaction time) was the result for the mentioned process compared to adsorption, single ozonation, catalytic ozonation, and photolysis. The influence of various operational parameters including initial dye concentration, catalyst concentration, …

Turkish Journal of Chemistry

SiO$_{2}$ supported core@shell nanoparticles (CSNs) have recently attracted great attention due to their unique, tunable, optical, photocatalytic, and higher adsorption properties. In this study, SiO$_{2}$@CeO$_{2}$~CSNs were synthesized using a chemical precipitation technique and characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscope (SEM), and transmission electron microscope (TEM) analysis. XRD analysis showed that SiO$_{2\, }$particles were the core while CeO$_{2}$ particles were the shell. It was seen as a new band at 961 cm$^{-1}$ of the oxygen bridge between Si and Ce atoms from FT-IR results; SiO$_{2}$ and CSNs were spherical (0.5--0.6 $\mu $m) from SEM and …

CO$_{2}$ adsorption capacities of activated carbon-based adsorbents subjected to different treatments, such as HNO$_{3}$ oxidation, air oxidation, alkali impregnation, and heat treatment under helium gas atmosphere, were determined by gravimetric analyses and reported previously by our group. In the current work, the experimental adsorption isotherms of these modified activated carbon samples were fitted to Langmuir, Freundlich, and Dubinin--Radushkevich (D-R) models. The best fits were obtained to the D-R equation, indicating competitive or multilayer CO$_{2}$ adsorption occurring in the micropores of the adsorbents. Air oxidation followed by alkali impregnation led to the highest micropore volume, ranging between 0.259 and 0.298 g.CO$_{2}$/g.adsorbent, …
