Influence of extractions on physicochemical characterization and bioactivity of Piper nigrum oils: Study on the non-isothermal decomposition kinetic

Black pepper oils have been investigated frequently in the recent years. However, there is a significant variation in physicochemical properties and bioactivity of oils depended on extraction techniques. In this study, the systemic investigation of four various extraction methods was performed to evaluate the physicochemical characterizations, antioxidant and antibacterial activity. The investigation of ¹H NMR, FTIR and UV–Vis spectra confirmed presence of non-volatile components in oils extracted through supercritical CO₂ and hexane-soaking extractions which induced their typical thermal properties. The isothermal behaviour of extracted oils related to evaporation was within range of 3.2–7.3% (w/w) at 27 °C. The SEM images of the black pepper confirmed different operation manners of mechanism between extractions using the solvents and heating process. The lowest MIC for both essential oils from conventional hidrodistillation and microwave-assisted hidrodistillation against two bacteria including E. coli and B. subtilis were found to be 137 µg mL⁻¹. The non-isothermal decomposition kinetics were investigated on the essential oil of microwave-assisted hydrodistillation extraction. The activation energies and pre-exponent factors of non-isothermal decomposition were found to be in range of 36.5–73.7 KJ mol⁻¹ and 4.98 × 10³–1.97 × 10⁸ s⁻¹, respectively, dependent on conversional fractions of the oil. The results revealed that chemical components, physicochemical properties and bioactivity of black pepper essential oils depended on the extraction techniques.     

Electrochemical behaviour of Pt(100), Pt(111) and Pt polycrystalline surfaces in hydrogencarbonate solution

It was demonstrated that adsorbed CO is obtained from the reduction of NaHCO₃ solution when Pt(100), Pt(110), disordered Pt(111) and polycrystalline electrodes are employed. Reduction of CO₂ coming from the dissociation of the hydrogencarbonate anion is proposed as the reaction that produces CO. By using Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, linear and multi-bonded CO were detected on polycrystalline platinum electrodes. The shape of the band associated with linearly adsorbed CO is monopolar as a consequence of the partial overlapping, at lower wavenumbers, of the absolute bands at both potentials (0.05 and 0.35 V).

Moderating the nucleophilicity of the sulfide ligands in the dinuclear {Pt2S2} metalloligand system using triphenylarsine

Reaction of cis-[PtCl₂(AsPh₃)₂] with excess sodium sulfide in benzene gave the triphenylarsine analogue of the well-known metalloligand [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(PPh₃)₄] as an orange solid.The compound was characterised by detailed mass spectrometry studies, and by conversion to various alkylated and metallated derivatives.The sulfide ligands in [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(AsPh₃)₄] are less basic than the triphenylphosphine analogue, and the complex gives a relatively weak [M+H]⁺ ion in the positive-ion electrospray (ESI) mass spectrum, compared with the phosphine analogue.Methylation of an equimolar mixture of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(PPh₃)₄] and [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(AsPh₃)₄] with MeI gave the species [Pt₂(μ-S)(μ-SMe)(AsPh₃)₄]⁺ and [Pt₂(μ-SMe)₂(PPh₃)₃I]⁺, indicating a reduced tendency for the sulfide of [Pt₂(μ-S)(μ-SMe)(AsPh₃)₄]⁺ to undergo alkylation.The lability of the arsine ligands is confirmed by the reaction of an equimolar mixture of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(PPh₃)₄] and [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(AsPh₃)₄] with n-butyl chloride, giving [Pt₂(μ-S)(μ-SBu)(EPh₃)₄]⁺ (E = P, As), which with Me₂SO₄ gave a mixture of [Pt₂(μ-SMe)(μ-SBu)(PPh₃)₄]²⁺ and [Pt₂(μ-SMe)(μ-SBu)(AsPh₃)₃Cl]⁺.Reactivity towards 1,2-dichloroethane follows a similar pattern.The formation and ESI MS detection of mixed phosphine-arsine {Pt₂S₂} species of the type[Pt₂(μ-S)₂(AsPh₃)_n(PPh₃)_4−n] is also discussed. Coordination chemistry of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(AsPh₃)₄] towards a range of metal-chloride substrates, forming sulfide-bridged trinuclear aggregates, has also been probed using ESI MS, and found to be similar to the phosphine analogue. The X-ray crystal structure of [Pt₂(μ-S)₂(AsPh₃)₄Pt(cod)](PF₆)₂ (cod = 1,5-cyclo-octadiene) has been determined for comparison with the (previously reported) triphenylphosphine analogue. ESI MS is a powerful tool in exploring the chemistry of this system; in some cases the derivatising agent p-bromobenzyl bromide is used to convert sparingly soluble and/or poorly ionising {Pt₂S₂} species into soluble, charged derivatives for MS analysis.     

A water soluble nanostructured platinum (0) metal catalyst from platinum carbonyl molecular clusters: Synthesis, characterization and application in the selective hydrogenations of olefins, ketones and aldehydes

High nuclearity platinum carbonyl cluster anions (Chini's clusters) have been used as precursors to prepare a platinum nanocatalyst. The ionic polyelectrolyte poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) has been used as the support material for anchoring [Pt₃₀(CO)₆₀]²⁻ via ion-pairing and subsequent stabilization of the nanoparticles. The polymer-supported material has been studied by spectroscopy (NIR, ¹³C NMR, and IR) and TEM before and after its use as a water soluble hydrogenation catalyst. The nanocatalyst is found to be effective for the chemoselective hydrogenation of olefinic, aldehydic and ketonic double bonds. For most of the substrates isolation of the product and reuse of the catalyst are extremely easy due to the automatic phase separation of the products from the catalyst. The spectral features of the fresh catalyst show retention of the carbonyl ligands and molecular identity of the parent cluster, but after use the carbonyl ligands appear to be lost. TEM of the supported material before and after use as a catalyst shows the presence of platinum nanoparticles with majority (≥70%) of the particles in the range of 2–6 nm. Smaller particles are dominant in the used catalyst and this observation is rationalized on the basis of the known reactivity of Chini's clusters with dihydrogen.     

Synthesis and characterization of organometallic conjugated polymers containing tricarbonyl(arene)chromium unit and platinum

Novel organometallic conjugated polymer containing (η⁶-arene)Cr(CO)₃ and platinum in the main chain was synthesized by dehydrohalogenation coupling reaction of (η⁶-1,4-diethynylbenzene)tricarbonylchromium with trans-(PBu₃)₂PtCl₂. The polymer was soluble in common organic solvents and has the number-average molecular weight of 31,000 by GPC analysis. The polymer exhibited an absorption peak derived from π-π^∗ interaction at 358 nm in the UV-Vis spectrum, which showed a red shift of approximately 90 nm compared to that of the model compound. The photochemical ligand exchange reaction of the polymer was also investigated.     

Reactivity of silyl-substituted heterobimetallic iron-platinum hydride complexes towards unsaturated molecules: Part II. Insertion of trifluoropropyne and hexafluorobutyne into the platinum-hydride bond

Insertion of hexafluorobutyne into the Pt-H bond of the heterobimetallic complexes [(OC)₃Fe{Si(OMe)₃}(μ-Ph₂PXPPh₂)Pt(H)(PPh₃)] (1a X = CH₂; 1b X = NH) yields the σ-alkenyl complexes [(OC)₃Fe{μ-Si(OMe)₂(OMe)}(μ-Ph₂PXPPh₂)Pt{C(CF₃)C(H)CF₃}] (3a X = CH₂; 3b X = NH). This insertion reaction is accompanied by dissociation of the platinum bound PPh₃ ligand and saturation of the vacant coordination site by a dative μ−η²-Si-O → Pt interaction. Addition of the Pt-H bond of 1a across the triple bond of 3,3,3-trifluoropropyne affords in a regiospecific manner [(OC)₃Fe{μ-Si(OMe)₂(OMe)}(μ-dppm)Pt{C(CF₃)CH₂}] (2) having the trifluoromethyl substituent on the α-carbon. Addition of RNC to 3 affords the isocyanide adducts [(OC)₃Fe{Si(OMe)₃}(μ-Ph₂PXPPh₂)Pt(CNR){C(CF₃)C(H)CF₃}] (4a R = t-Bu, X = CH₂; 4b R = 2,6-xylyl, X = CH₂; 4c R = 2,6-xylyl, X = NH). In dichloromethane solution 3a is gradually transformed into the C₄F₆-bridged compound [(OC)₃Fe(μ-dppm)(μ-CF₃CCCF₃)Pt(CO)] 5. The Pt-bound carbonyl ligand of 5 is displaced by xylylisocyanide or trimethylphosphite affording the derivatives [(OC)₃Fe(μ-dppm)(μ-CF₃CCCF₃)Pt(CNxylyl)] 6 and [(OC)₃Fe(μ-dppm)(μ-CF₃CCCF₃)Pt{P(OMe)₃}] 7. The molecular structures of 4a, 5 and 6 have been determined by X-ray diffraction studies.
