An Easy One-Pot Procedure for the Synthesis of <Emphasis Type="Italic">N</Emphasis>-Sulfonyl Phosphorous Ylides and Sulfonyl Iminophosphoranes

Summary. Reaction of triphenylphosphine and an electron deficient acetylenic ester in the presence of strong N–H acid such as alkyl and aryl sulfamides or acetamide produces phosphorous ylides at room temperature in CH₂Cl₂. The aryl sulfamide phosphoranes undergo a smooth transformation reaction in boiling toluene and produce iminophosphoranes.

Zinc‐containing ionic liquid as a dual solvent‐catalyst in base‐free condensations under ultrasonic irradiation

In this study, natural‐based ionic liquid (IL) using caffeine (Caff), trietahnolamine (TEA) and ZnBr₂, [Caff‐TEA]⁺[ZnBr₃]^?, which features high catalytic activity and environmentally‐friendly nature was synthesized with melting point of 76 °C by a facile method. The synthesized [Caff‐TEA]⁺[ZnBr₃]^? has high catalytic activity as both of catalyst and solvent in condensation reactions for the synthesis of benzylidenes, bis‐hydroxyenones and xanthenes. Synthesized IL was characterized by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹HNMR), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT‐IR), X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and Energy‐dispersive X‐ray spectroscopy (EDX) analysis. Also synthesized heterocycles were characterized by FT‐IR, proton nuclear magnetic resonance (¹HNMR) and carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (¹³CNMR).     

Celestine blue as a new indicator in electrochemical DNA biosensors

Celestine blue(CB)was introduced as a new electroactive indicator in DNA biosensors.The interaction of CB with DNA was investigated by electrochemical and spectroscopic methods.The effect of buffer kind and p H on the electrochemical behavior of CB was studied.The peak currents of CB were linearly related to DNA concentration in the range of 5.0×10~(-9) to 1.0×10~(-7)mol/L.The detection limit of this approach was 4.76×10~(-10) mol/L.Based on spectrometry data a hypochromic effect was observed in UV-Vis spectra of CB with increasing DNA concentration.The results illustrate the possible interaction mode between CB and DNA is electrostatic binding.     

Synthesis of new enantiomerically pure spirooxindolopyrrolizidines via a three-component asymmetric 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition reaction of azomethine ylides derived from isatin

An efficient, one-pot, three-component procedure for the synthesis of a small library of new chiral spirooxindolopyrrolizidines with high regio-, diastereo-, and enantioselectivity, from the 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition of azomethine ylides and optically active cinnamoyl oxazolidinone is described. The process occurs at room temperature in aqueous ethanol as a green solvent and in the absence of any Lewis acids. The oxazolidinone chiral auxiliary is removed in a non-destructive manner. The reaction mechanism is discussed on the basis of the assignment of the absolute configuration of the cycloadducts, and on theoretical calculations.     

One‐Pot Synthesis of Dialkyl 2‐(Alkyl or aryl)‐6‐(pyrimidin‐2‐ylthio)‐4‐thioxo‐5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐1,3‐oxazine‐5,6‐dicarboxylate Derivatives via a Four‐Component Reaction

A number of new dialkyl 2‐(alkyl or aryl)‐6‐(pyrimidin‐2‐ylthio)‐4‐thioxo‐5,6‐dihydro‐4H‐1,3‐oxazine‐5,6‐dicarboxylate have been prepared in good yield from the multicomponent reaction between 2‐mercaptopyrimidines and acetylenic diesters with acetyl or benzoyl isothiocyanate.     

Ligandless-ultrasound-assisted emulsification microextraction followed by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry for simultaneous determination of heavy metals in water samples

In this study, a simple and efficient method of ligandless-ultrasound-assisted emulsification microextraction (LL-USAEME) followed by inductively coupled plasma-optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) has been developed for simultaneous extraction, preconcentration and determination of manganese, cadmium, cobalt and nickel in water samples. In the proposed approach, tetrachloroethylene was selected as extraction solvent. The effect of important experimental factors such as volume of extraction solvent, pH, sonication time, salt concentration, and temperature was investigated by using a fractional factorial design (2^5?1) to identify important factors and their interactions. In the next step, a Box-Behnken design (BBD) was applied for optimisation of significant factors. The obtained optimal conditions were: 30?µL for extraction solvent, 12 for pH, 5?min for sonication time, and 5% w/v for salt concentration. The limits of detections (LODs) for Cd(II), Co(II), Mn(II) and Ni(II) were 0.20, 0.13, 0.21 and 0.28?µg?L^?1, respectively. Relative standard deviations (RSD, C?=?200.0?µg?L^?1, n?=?9) were between 3.4–7.5% and the calibration graphs were linear in the range of 0.25 to 1000.0?µg?L^?1 for Mn, 0.5–1000.0?µg?L^?1 for Co and Ni and 1.0–250.0?µg?L^?1 for Cd. The determination coefficients (R ²) of the calibration curves for the analytes were in the range of 0.993 to 0.999. The proposed method was validated by using two certified reference materials, and also the method was applied successfully for the determination of heavy metals in different real water samples.
