A centrosymmetric polymer precursor, namely 6‐(2,5‐di(thiophen‐2‐yl)‐1H‐pyrrol‐1‐yl)hexan‐1‐amine (TPHA), was synthesized via a Knorr–Paal reaction using 1,4‐di(2‐thienyl)‐1,4‐butanedione and hexane‐1,6‐diamine. The resultant monomer was characterized by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (¹H‐NMR). Electroactivity of TPHA was investigated via cyclic voltammetry. The electronic structure and the nature of electrochromism in P(TPHA) and its copolymer with EDOT, (P(TPHA‐co‐EDOT)), were examined via spectroelectrochemistry studies. P(TPHA) switches between claret red neutral state and blue oxidized state. Optical response times for coloring and bleaching processes of the P(TPHA) and P(TPHA‐co‐EDOT) were found as 2.1 s and 1.6 s, respectively.

Spectrophotometric Determination of Nitrite in Water Samples with 4‐(1‐Methyl‐1‐Mesitylcyclobutane‐3‐yl)‐2‐Aminothiazole

Abstract

A simple, sensitive, and specific spectrophotometric method for the measurement of nitrite in water has been developed and optimum reaction conditions along with other analytical parameters have been evaluated. The azo dye, 4‐(1‐methyl‐1‐mesitylcylobutane‐3‐yl)‐2‐(p‐N,N‐dimethylazobenzene)‐1,3‐thiazole was synthesized with the reaction of 4‐(1‐methyl‐1‐mesitylcylobutane‐3‐yl)‐2‐aminothiazole and N,N‐dimethyl aniline in acidic medium. Obtained azo dye has been characterized by infrared (IR), ¹H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and microanalysis methods. The dye shows an absorption maximum at 482 nm. The method is optimized for acid concentration, pH, amount of reagents required, time, and interfering species. All the determinations were carried out at this wavelength throughout the work. At an analytical wavelength of 482 nm, Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration range 0.05 to 2.00 µg nitrite per mL analyte. The molar absorptivity, Sandell's sensitivity, and relative standard deviation are 2.03×10⁴ L mol^?1 cm^?1±251.3 (95%), 2.28×10^?3 µg cm^?2, and 2.74% (n=10), respectively. The detection limit of the method is 0.012 µg ml^?1 of nitrite ion. The method was succesfully applied to the determination of nitrite in tap water and lake water.

Synthesis and Characterization of Poly(methyl methacrylate‐co‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate)‐b‐polyisobutylene‐b‐poly(methyl methacrylate‐co‐hydroxyethyl Methacrylate) Triblock Copolymers

The synthesis of poly[(methyl methacrylate‐co‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate)‐b‐isobutylene‐b‐(methyl methacrylate‐co‐hydroxyethyl methacrylate)] P(MMA‐co‐HEMA)‐b‐PIB‐b‐P(MMA‐co‐HEMA) triblock copolymers with different HEMA/MMA ratios has been accomplished by the combination of living cationic and anionic polymerizations. P(MMA‐co‐HEMA)‐b‐PIB‐b‐P(MMA‐co‐HEMA) triblock copolymers with different compositions were prepared by a synthetic methodology involving the transformation from living cationic to anionic polymerization. First, 1,1‐diphenylethylene end‐functionalized PIB (DPE‐PIB‐DPE) was prepared by the reaction of living difunctional PIB and 1,4‐bis(1‐phenylethenyl)benzene (PDDPE), followed by the methylation of the resulting diphenyl carbenium ion with dimethylzinc (Zn(CH₃)₂). The DPE ends were quantitatively metalated with n‐butyllithium in tetrahydrofuran, and the resulting macroanion initiated the polymerization of methacrylates yielding triblock copolymers with high blocking efficiency. Microphase separation of the thus prepared triblock copolymers was evidenced by the two glass transitions at ?64 and +120°C observed by differential scanning calorimetry. These new block copolymers exhibit typical stress‐strain behavior of thermoplastic elastomers. Surface characterization of the samples was accomplished by angle‐resolved X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), which revealed that the surface is richer in PIB compared to the bulk. However, a substantial amount of P(MMA‐co‐HEMA) remains at the surface. The presence of hydroxyl functionality at the surface provides an opportunity for further modification.
