The efficiency of dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as chemoselective carbomethoxylating agent of the alcoholic chain of phenols has been investigated. In the presence of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) or sulfuric acid as catalysts, new carbomethoxylated phenolic compounds were obtained in quantitative yields.

Nanostructuration of soft hydrogels: synthesis and characterization of saccharidic methacrylate gels

With the tremendous development of biosensors, there is a strong need in new biocompatible materials avoiding possible denaturing of biological species, which can be easily processed with already existing technologies. The scope of this study was to develop new hydrogels which could be nanostructured by common lithographic methods. Therefore, new methacrylate hydrogels are described, which include functionalized monomers bearing either neutral groups, such as saccharidic moieties, anionic, or cationic groups. The gels have been synthesized by redox or photochemical-initiated radical polymerization. Their porosity has been characterized by thermoporometry, AFM, and electronic microscopy. The kinetics of the photocross-linking has been analyzed by piezorheometry on some of the materials and has been shown to be compatible with technological process time range. Although the obtained hydrogels are soft, their nanostructuration into 500-nm patterns could be performed by nanoimprint photolithography process, and these patterns were observed to be stable for several months.

New natural product -an efficient antimicrobial applications of new newly synthesized pyrimidine derivatives by the electrochemical oxidation of hydroxyl phenol in the presence of 2-mercapto-6-(trifluoromethyl) pyrimidine-4-ol as nucleophile

Some new pyrimidine derivatives have been synthesised by electrochemical oxidation of catechol (1a) in the existence of 2-mercapto-6-(trifluoromethyl) pyrimidine-4-ol (3) as a nucleophile in aqueous solution using Cyclic Voltammetric and Controlled Potential Coulometry. The catechol has been oxidised to o-quinone through electrochemical method and participative in Michael addition reaction, leading to the development of some new pyrimidine derivatives. The products were achieved in good yield with high pureness. The mechanism of the reaction has been conformed from the Cyclic Voltammetric data and Controlled Potential Coulometry. After purification, the compounds were characterised using modern techniques. The synthesised materials were screened for antimicrobial actions using Gram positive and Gram negative strain of bacteria. These new synthesised pyrimidine derivatives showed very good antimicrobial activity.     

Preparation, characterization and application of a stationary chromatographic phase from a new (+)-tartaric acid derivative

The preparation, characterization and application of a new stationary phase derived from 1,4-cyclohexanedione and diethyl (+)-tartrate are described.

High reactivity and excellent enantioselectivity were obtained at ambient temperature with a range of cyclic enones and dialkylzinc. Addition to acyclic enones has also been studied.

Application of a new equation of state to liquid refrigerant mixtures

A new general equation of state recently reported for pure liquids has been developed to predict the volumetric and thermodynamic properties of six binary and two ternary liquid refrigerant mixtures (including HCs and HFCs mixtures) at different temperatures, pressures, and compositions. The results show this equation of state can be used to reproduce and predict different thermodynamic properties of liquid refrigerant mixtures within experimental errors. The composition dependence of the parameters of this equation of state has been assumed as quadratic functions of mole fraction. Using these mixing rules, the agreement between calculated and experimental densities is better than 0.6% for binary mixtures and 2.3% for ternary mixtures. To compare the performance of this new equation of state against other well-known methods such as the COSTALD method, the density of some refrigerant mixtures, for which the parameters of COSTALD were available, has been computed and compared with those of this new equation of state.     

The anharmonic potential energy surface of methyl fluoride

A large experimental spectroscopic data set sensitive to the cubic anharmonic potential energy surface (PES) of methyl fluoride has been compiled from the literature for six symmetric and asymmetric top isotopomers of methyl fluoride: 12CH3F, 13CH3FF, 12CD3F, 13CD3F, 12CHD2F and 12CH2DF. This empirical data set has been used to critically assess the best available literature ab initio cubic force field and various 'improved' theoretical force fields. A perturbation-resonance approach to the calculation of the observables from the force constants has been utilized and existing PESs were found to reproduce the data poorly. The careful treatment required for the correct theoretical reproduction of empirical spectroscopic constants arising from highly correlated least-squares fits to the original data is discussed. A new fit to the data has been performed (optimising 19 of the 38 cubic force constants) resulting in a much improved PES. The latter has been used to predict currently unknown spectroscopic constants for the least well-characterised isotopomer 12CH2DF. The prospects for a future empirical determination of the complete cubic force field of methyl fluoride are discussed and new data most likely to yield new information on the PES identified.

Preparation of unsaturated sulphones through new aryl sulphonylacetic acids

Three new aryl sulphonylacetic acids have been prepared from 2-chlorotoluene, 1,2-dichlorobenzene and 1-bromonaphthalene. The infrared spectra of these acids exhibited strong bands characteristic of carbonyl stretching frequencies of carboxylic acids. Utilising these sulphonylacetic acids some new unsaturated sulphones were synthesised. An attempt has been made to correlate the infrared and proton magnetic resonance spectral data to the configurations of unsaturated sulphones.     

Determination of pKa values of 2-amino-2-oxazolines by capillary electrophoresis

The dissociation constants of new 2-amino-2-oxazolines were determined by capillary electrophoresis (CE) as a new technique. A method based on a linear model has been used in the CE determination. A series of eight 2-amino-2-oxazolines are investigated to determine their ionization constant. Among them, three new oxazolines synthesized are presented. The Ka values were obtained from the plots of reciprocal effective mobility against inverse concentrations of protons. The potentiometric method (PM) was performed as a comparative method. No significant differences were observed between the determined dissociation constants using both methods. Thus, the pKa values have been found to vary between 8.55 and 8.68.
