Mono- and penta-nuclear self-assembled silver(I) complexes of pyrazolyl s-triazine ligand; synthesis,structure and antimicrobial studies

The self-assembled [Ag (PTDM)NO₃] ( 1 ), [Ag (PTDM)₂(H₂O)]ClO₄^.H₂O ( 2 ) and [Ag₅(PTDM)₄(H₂O)₆(ClO₄)₄]ClO₄^.2H₂O ( 3 ) complexes were synthesized by the direct mixing of AgX (X = NO₃¯ or ClO₄¯) and 4,4′-[6-(3,5-dimethyl-1H-pyrazol-1-yl)-1,3,5-triazine-2,4-diyl]dimorpholine ( PTDM ) ligand in water–methanol mixture. The coordination numbers of silver range from three to five. Complex 3 is a rare case in which one nitrogen atom from the same s-triazine core of the PTDM ligand has a μ(1,1) bridging mode between Ag1 and Ag2 in the penta-nuclear array with Ag1–N1 and Ag2–N1 distances of 2.666(4) and 2.418(3) Å, respectively. Its 3D topology has a kind of primitive dense packing derived from the α-Po type structure. Hirshfeld analysis showed that the percentages of the O^…H hydrogen bonds were 32.4, 25.4, and 42.0% in complexes 1 – 3 , respectively. While the ligand showed no antimicrobial activity at the applicable concentration, the penta-nuclear complex 3 had higher antibacterial (MIC = 3.7 μmol/L) and antifungal (14.6 μmol/L) potencies toward the tested microbes compared with complexes 1 and 2 . Also, the killing doses of 3 were in the range of 7.3–58.5 μmol/L compared with 18.2–291.1 and 20.1–160.6 μmol/L for 1 and 2 , respectively. It is clear that the higher Ag-content in 3 could be the main reason for its higher antimicrobial activity.

Synthesis and spectral characterization of some new N-substituted 2-aminobenzothiazoles, 2-aminothiazolopyridines and 2-aminothiazoloquinolines

A series of N-substituted 2-aminobenzothiazoles, 2-aminothiazolopyridines, and 2-aminothiazoloquinolines were prepared by the cyclization of N,N'-disubstituted thiourea derivatives by bromine in acetic acid. The uv, ir and nmr data for these compounds are presented and discussed.     

Then-component cubic model and flows: Subgraph break-collapse method

We specialize to then-component cubic model the subgraph break-collapse method which we recently developed for theZ() model. The cubic model has less symmetry than the Potts model, for which the method was originally developed, but nevertheless it is still possible to reduce considerably the computational complexity of the generalZ() model. Our recursive algorithm is similar, forn=2, to the break-collapse method for theZ(4) model proposed by Mariz and co-workers. It allows the exact calculation for the partition function and correlation functions forn-component cubic clusters, withn as a variable, without the need to examine all of the spin configurations. An important application is therefore in real-space renormalization-group calculations.     

The (4,0) mode of HF dimer at 14,700 cm(-l)

The deltaK = 0 and 1 subbands of the (4,0) <-- (0,0) transition of (HF)2, near 14,700 cm(-1), have been measured by molecular-beam intracavity laser-induced fluorescence. The hydrogen interchange tunneling is basically quenched in (4, 0) for both K = 0 and 1 levels, consistent with the early suggestion from a phenomenological model [H.-C. Chang and W. Klemperer, J. Chem. Phys. 104, 7830 (1996)]. The band origin upsilon0 = 14,700.458(7) cm(-1) and rotational constant (B + C)/2 = 0.22278(31) cm(-1) are determined for K = 0 of the (4, 0) mode. From the observed deltaK = 1 <-- 0 spectrum, we determined that A = 24.3 cm(-1), (B + C)/2 = 0.22296(20) cm(-1), and (B-C) = 4.5(2) x 10(-3) cm(-1). The predissociation linewidths of both K = 0 and 1 levels are 470(30) MHz with no apparent rotational dependence.     

New Polymer Syntheses Part 60: A Facile Synthetic Route to Polyamides Based on Thieno[2,3-b]thiophene and Their Corrosion Inhibition Behavior

Polyamides containing thieno[2,3-b]thiophene moiety were prepared via a simple polycondensation reaction of the diaminothieno[2,3-b]thiophene monomer 1 a with different kinds of diacid chlorides(including oxalyl, adipoyl, sebacoyl, isophthaloyl,terephthaloyl, 4,4′-azodibenzoyl, 3,3′-azodibenzoyl, p-phenylene diacryloyl) in the presence of Li Cl and NMP as a solvent through lowtemperature solution polycondensation. The chemical structures of model compound and synthesized polyamides were confirmed by FTIR, nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy(including ~1H-NMR and ~(13)C-NMR) and elemental analysis. In addition, the thermal stability, crystallinity structure and surface morphology of synthesized polyamides were characterized via thermogravametric analysis(TGA), wide-angle X-ray diffraction analysis(WAXD) and scanning electron microscopy(SEM). Also, the corrosion inhibition behavior of selected examples of polyamides was investigated; the inhibitive effect of the investigated polymers for carbon steel in 1.0 mol·L~(-1) HCl was studied using potentiodynamic polarization(PDP) and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy(EIS) methods. PDP results displayed that the polyamides containing thieno[2,3-b]thiophene moiety can be as mixed-type inhibitors. The inhibition efficiency(P, %) was found to be in the range from 67.13% to 96.01%. There is an increase in P by the synthesized polymers in comparison to the starting monomer.The adsorption of these polymers was found to obey Langmuir adsorption isotherm.     

An improved variational iteration method for solving coupled KdV and Boussinesq-like B(m, n) equations

In this article, we implement a new analytical technique; He’s variational iteration method for solving the coupled KdV and Boussinesq-like equations. In this method, first general Lagrange multipliers are introduced to construct correction functional for the problems. The multipliers in the functional can be identified optimally via the variational theory. Next the components of obtained iteration formulae defined by partial sum of other sequence, specially constructed according to Adomian’s decomposition method (ADM). Also according to ADM we used a partial sum of Adomian polynomials instead of nonlinear terms in iteration formulae. The initial approximations can be freely chosen with possible unknown constants, which can be determined by imposing the initial conditions. The results reveal that the proposed method is very effective and can be applied for other nonlinear problems.

<正>Reactions of the 6-hydroxy-thiopyrano[3,4-c]pyridine-5-carbonitrile derivative 1 withα-halo-carbonyl compounds gave the ortho-substituted intermediates 2a-c which were converted into furo[2,3-b]thiopyrano[4,3-d]pyridines 3a-c by fusion of a furan moiety under basic conditions.Further cyclization of 3a-c led to a fusion of a pyrimidine ring,yielding the tetracyclic products 6,7 and 8.In addition,condensation of 6 with various aromatic aldehydes afforded the corresponding imines 9a,b.Mannich reaction of 7 gave products 10a,b.
