Synthesis,Crystal Structure and Spectroscopic Characterization of {6-[2-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]-2-oxo-1,3-benzothiazol-3(2<Emphasis Type="Italic">H</Emphasis>)-yl}acetic acid

Abstract  

The title compound {6-[2-(2-chlorophenyl)-1,3-thiazol-4-yl]-2-oxo-1,3-benzothiazol-3(2H)-yl}acetic acid was prepared and characterized by elemental analyses, FT-IR, ¹H NMR spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction. A quantum-chemical calculation was performed using the CNDO method. In the title compound, C₁₈H₁₁ClN₂O₃S₂, the crystal structure is stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds (C–H···O=C) to form centrosymmetric R₂² R_{2}^{2} (16) dimers and the C–H···O, O–H···N, and C–H···N interactions generating the graph set motifs R₂² R_{2}^{2} (9) and R₂² R_{2}^{2} (22).     

Proton NMR Spectrometric Analysis of Glibenclamide and Tolazamide and Some of Their Pharmaceutical Preparations

An analytical method is described for the assay of two important oral hypoglycemic agents, namely, glibenclamide (glyburide); and tolazamide; using PMR technique. The method is rapid, accurate, specific and precise.

The principle of the method involves comparing the integral of a chosen signal in the PMR spectrum of the drug under investigation with that of the methylene group signal of the internal standard, benzyl benzoate.     

Low-lying states of 184W and 184Os nuclei

The energy levels, transition energy, B （E2） values,intrinsic quadrupole moment Q₀ and potential energy surface for even-even ¹⁸⁴W and ¹⁸⁴Os nuclei were calculated using IBM-1. The predicted energy levels, transition energy, B（E2） values and intrinsic quadrupole moment Q₀ results are reasonably consistent with the experimental data. A contour plot of the potential energy surfaces shows that two interesting nuclei are deformed and have rotational characters.     

The Separation of Zeros of Solutions of Higher Order Linear Differential Equations With Entire Coefficients

Suppose that a homogeneous linear differential equation has entire coefficients of finite order and a fundamental set of solutions each having zeros with finite exponent of convergence. Upper bounds are given for the number of zeros of these solutions in small discs in a neighbourhood of infinity.     

Stacked films immobilization of MBTH in nafion/sol-gel silicate and horseradish peroxidase in chitosan for the determination of phenolic compounds

The stacked-film immobilization of 3-methyl-2-benzothiazolinone hydrazone (MBTH) in hybrid nafion/sol-gel silicate film and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) in chitosan, performed in order to allow the determination of phenolic compounds, was investigated via an optical method. The stacked films were deposited onto a microscope glass slide by a spin-coating technique. The quinone or free radical product formed by the enzymatic reactions of phenolic compounds interacts with MBTH to form azo-dye products, which can be measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 500 nm. The color intensity of the product was found to increase in proportion to the phenolic concentration after 5 min of exposure. The response of the biosensor was linear over concentration ranges of 0.025–0.500, 0.010–0.070 and 0.050–0.300 mM for guaiacol, resorcinol and o-cresol, respectively, and gave detection limits of 0.010, 0.005 and 0.012 mM. The sensor exhibited good sensitivity and stability for at least two months.     

Basic gravitational currents and Killing–Yano forms

It has been shown that for each Killing–Yano (KY)-form accepted by an n-dimensional (pseudo)Riemannian manifold of arbitrary signature, two different gravitational currents can be defined. Conservation of the currents are explicitly proved by showing co-exactness of the one and co-closedness of the other. Some general geometrical facts implied by these conservation laws are also elucidated. In particular, the conservation of the one-form currents implies that the scalar curvature of the manifold is a flow invariant for all of its Killing vector fields. It also directly follows that, while all KY-forms and their Hodge duals on a constant curvature manifold are the eigenforms of the Laplace–Beltrami operator, for an Einstein manifold this is certain only for KY 1-forms, (n − 1)-forms and their Hodge duals.     

Synthesis,Characterization, and In Vitro Antibacterial Activities of Macromolecules Derived from Bis‐Chalcone

We investigated the antibacterial activity of some new macromolecules such as bis‐pyrazoline, bis‐pyrazole, bis‐pyrimidines prepared from the reaction of bis‐chalcone with thiosemicarbazide/phenyl hydrazine/guanidine hydrochloride/thiourea. All the macromolecules have been characterized by IR, ¹H NMR, ¹³C NMR, mass and elemental analyses. The antibacterial activity of these compounds was first tested in vitro by the disc diffusion assay against two Gram‐positive and two Gram‐negative bacteria, and then the minimum inhibitory concentration was determined with the reference to standard drug chloramphenicol. The results showed that pyrazoline derivative showed better antibacterial activity on S. typhimurium and E. coli than the reference drug chloramphenicol.     

Synthesis of Ag nanoparticle-decorated 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine nanobelts and their application for H2O2 and glucose detection

The present paper reports on the first preparation of 2,4,6-tris(2-pyridyl)-1,3,5-triazine nanobelts (TPTNBs) by adjusting the pH value of the solution and the subsequent synthesis of Ag nanoparticle (AgNP)-decorated TPTNBs (AgNP-TPTNBs) by mixing an aqueous AgNO(3) solution with preformed TPTNBs without use of any external reducing agent. It is found that the resultant AgNP-TPTNBs exhibit notable catalytic performance for H(2)O(2) reduction. A glucose biosensor was fabricated by immobilizing glucose oxidase (GOD) onto a AgNP-TPTNBs-modified glassy carbon electrode (GCE) for glucose detection. The constructed glucose sensor has a wide linear response range from 3 mM to 20 mM (r: 0.999) with a detection limit of 190 μM. It is further shown that this glucose biosensor can be used for glucose detection in human blood serum.     

Spectral characteristics and fluorescence quenching of N,N′-bis(4-pyridyl)-3,4:9,10-perylenebis(dicarboximide) (BPPD)

The photophysical properties such as electronic absorption, molar absorptivity, emission spectra, fluorescence quantum yield and fluorescence lifetime of N,N′-bis(4-pyridyl)-3,4:9,10-perylene bis(dicarboximide) (BPPD) have been measured in different solvents. Both electronic absorption and fluorescence spectra are not sensitive to medium polarity, while the fluorescence quantum yield (?_f) is solvent dependent. The ground state geometry has been computed by using density functional theory (DFT), the transition from HOMO to LUMO from perylene core with maximum absorption at 512 nm and HOMO–LUMO energy difference equal 2.53 eV. BPPD dye undergoes molecular aggregation to dimmer or higher aggregates in dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Crystalline solids of BPPD gives excimer-like emission at 676 nm. The fluorescence quenching of BPPD is also studied using hydrated ferric oxide nanoparticle (FeOOH), and the Stern–Volmer rate constants (K_sv) were calculated as 8×10⁶ and 9.2×10⁶ M^?1 in ethanol and ethylene glycol, respectively.
