A convenient and sensitive method for haloacetic acid analysis in tap water by on‐line field‐amplified sample‐stacking CE–ESI‐MS

In this study, we propose a simple strategy based on flow injection and field‐amplified sample‐stacking CE–ESI‐MS/MS to analyze haloacetic acids (HAAs) in tap water. Tap water was passed through a desalination cartridge before field‐amplified sample‐stacking CE–ESI‐MS/MS analysis to reduce sample salinity. With this treatment, the signals of the HAAs increased 300‐ to 1400‐fold. The LODs for tap water analysis were in the range of 10 to 100 ng/L, except for the LOD of monochloroacetic acid (1 μg/L in selected‐ion monitoring mode detection). The proposed method is fast, convenient, and sensitive enough to perform on‐line analysis of five HAAs in the tap water of Taipei City. Four HAAs, including trichloroacetic acid, dichloroacetic acid, dibromoacetic acid, and monobromoacetic acid, were detected at concentrations of approximately 1.74, 1.15, 0.16, and 0.15 ppb, respectively.     

Determination of Diuretics in Urine Using Immobilized Multi‐Walled Carbon Nanotubes in Hollow Fiber Liquid‐Phase Microextraction Combined with Liquid Chromatography‐Tandem Mass Spectrometry

A novel technique utilizing the adsorptive potential of immobilized multi‐walled carbon nanotubes (I‐MWCNT) in hollow fiber liquid‐phase microextraction (HF‐LPME) was developed for the determination of diuretics in urine. In this study, the potential of carbon nanotubes as a sorbent for three‐phase liquid‐phase microextraction of diuretics from urine samples was evaluated. Analysis was performed using liquid chromatography‐tandem mass spectrometry (LC‐MS/MS). A novel method was applied to detect acetazolamide (AAA), chlorothiazide (CTA), hydrochlorothiazide (HCT), hydroflumethiazide (HFT), clopamide (CA), trichlormethiazide (TCM), althiazide (AT) and bendroflumethiazide (BFT) in urine. Two‐step extractions using different times and temperatures for each step were adopted. Parameters influencing the extraction efficiency, including the extraction solvent, sample pH, salt concentration, extraction time and extraction temperature were systematically optimized. Under the resulting optimal extraction conditions, this method showed good linearity over an analytes concentration range of 1 to 1000 ng/mL, high extraction repeatability with relative standard deviations of less than 6%, and low detection limits (0.09 to 0.51 ng/mL). The application of the methods to the determination of diuretics in real samples was tested by analyzing urine samples of patient.     

Efficient Green Procedure for the Synthesis of Coumarin Derivatives by a One‐Pot,Three‐Component Reaction under Solvent‐Free Conditions

A simple, efficient, and general method has been developed for the synthesis of coumarin derivatives through a one‐pot reaction of aromatic aldehydes, 2,2‐dimethyl‐1,3‐dioxane‐4,6‐dione and 5,5‐dimethyl‐1,3‐cyclohexanedione, in the presence of TEBA under solvent‐free conditions using grinding methods. The mild reaction conditions, simple protocol, high yields, and cleaner reaction make this protocol practical and economically attractive.     

Microwave-Assisted Synthesis of Propesticides 1,3,4-Thiadiazole Aminophosphonates

A novel and easy synthetic route to diethyl (5-substituted phenyl-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-ylamino) (substituted phenyl) methylphosphonates has been achieved by the reaction of substituted benzylidene-5-(substituted phenyl)-1,3,4-thiadiazol-2-amines and diethyl phosphite under microwave irradiation. These 1,3,4-thiadiazole aminophosphonates were identified by infrared, ¹H NMR, and elemental analyses. The target compounds were obtained in better yields (71–89%) and shorter time (10 min) than with conventional heating.

Equilibrium and Dynamic Surface Tension of Carboxymethylchitosan and Alkyl Trimethylammonium Bromide Mixtures

A water-soluble derivative of chitosan, carboxymethylchitosan (CMCH), was mixed with alkyltrimethylammoniumbromides (C_mTAB) and was studied on the adsorption at air/water interface using equilibrium and dynamic surface tension method. The effects of surfactant and polymer concentrations, surfactant chain length, as well as pH of solution were investigated. Addition of the surfactants remarkably promotes the polymer adsorption. Increasing any one of surfactant concentration, surfactant chain length, and pH will facilitate the adsorption of the mixture whereas little effects of polymer concentration were observed. The results are explained in terms of the interaction between CMCH and C_mTAB under different conditions.     

Rheological Study of Interactions between Anionic Guar and Oppositely Charged Surfactant

We have studied the interactions between anionic carboxymethyl guar (CMG) and oppositely charged surfactant: dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB), tetradecyltrimethylammonium bromide (TTAB), cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), and gemini surfactants (16-4-16), using rheological measurements. In the present study, two competing forces, electrostatic interaction and hydrophobic interaction, have been identified as important factors. Various types of structure formed on the anionic CMG chains are qualitatively discussed in comparison. For example, C₁₂TAB and gemini surfactant tend to form polymer-bound aggregates, whereas the C₁₆TAB tend to form the polymer-associated architecture. Furthermore, possible mechanisms based on the experimental results to elucidate these interesting phenomena have been proposed and discussed.
