Three methodologies are presented to contemplate the analysis of sodium, potassium, chloride, bicarbonate, lactate, acetoacetate, and beta-hydroxybutyrate in blood serum samples of diabetic patients using free solution capillary electrophoresis with indirect detection (214 nm for cations and 254 nm for anions). The cations were analyzed in less than 6 min in an electrolyte comprised of 15 mmol x L(-1) imidazole, 5 mmol x L(-1) lactate and 1 mmol x L(-1) 18-crown-6-ether, adjusted to pH 4.5. Chloride and bicarbonate were analyzed in 2 min in a 5 mmol x L(-1) chromate, 0.1 mmol.L(-1) cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB), pH 9.0 electrolyte solution. Ketoacids and lactate were analyzed in less than 11 min in an electrolyte composed of 15 mmol x L(-1) 3,5-dinitrobenzoate, 0.1 mmol x L(-1) CTAB, at pH 3.5. All methodologies were validated with respect to linearity, selectivity, sensitivity, precision and accuracy performing adequately for clinical purposes.

A new strategy to simultaneous microextraction of acidic and basic compounds

The simultaneous extraction of acidic and basic pollutants from water samples is an interesting and debatable work in sample preparation techniques. A novel and efficient method named ion pair based surfactant assisted microextraction (IP-SAME) was applied for extraction and preconcentration of five selected acidic and basic aromatic species as model compounds in water samples, followed by high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet detection. A mixture including 1 mL of ultra-pure water (containing ionic surfactant as emulsifier agent) and 60 μL 1-octanol (as extraction solvent) was rapidly injected using a syringe into a 10.0 mL water sample which formed an emulsified solution. IP-SAME mechanism can be interpreted by two types of molecular mass transfer into the organic solvent (partitioning and ion pairing for non-ionized and ionized compounds, respectively) during emulsification process. The effective parameters on the extraction efficiency such as the extraction solvent type and its volume, type of the surfactant and its concentration, sample pH and ionic strength of the sample were optimized. Under the optimum conditions (60 μL of 1-octanol; 1.5 mmol L(-1) cethyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) as emulsifier agent and sample pH 10.0), the preconcentration factors (PFs), detection limits and linear dynamic ranges (LDRs) were obtained in the range of 87-348, 0.07-0.6 μg L(-1) and 0.1-200 μg L(-1) respectively. All of natural water samples were successfully analyzed by the proposed method.     

Synthesis of silicon-containing vinyl ether monomers and oligomers and their photoinitiated polymerization

Silicon-containing divinyl ether monomers were synthesized by the addition reaction of glycidyl vinyl ether ( 1 ) with various silyl dichlorides using tetra-n-butylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a catalyst. The reaction of 1 with diphenyl dichlorosilane gave bis-[1-(chloromethyl)-2-(vinyloxy)-ethyl]diphenyl silane ( 3a ) in 89% yield. Polycondensations of 3a with terephthalic acid were also carried out using 1,8-Diazabicyclo[5.4.0]-7-undecene (DBU) to afford silicon-containing polyfunctional vinyl ether oligomers ( 5 ). A multifunctional Si-monomer with both vinyl ether and methacrylate groups ( 7 ) was prepared by the reaction of 3a with potassium methacrylate using TBAB as a phase transfer catalyst. Photoinitiated cationic polymerizations of these vinyl ether compounds proceeded rapidly using the sulfonium salt, bis-[4-(diphenyl-sulfonio)phenyl]sulfide-bis-hexafluorophoshate (DPSP), as the cationic photoinitiator in neat mixtures upon UV irradiation. Multifunctional monomer 7 with both vinyl ether and methacrylate groups showed “hybrid curing properties” using both DPSP and the radical photoinitiator, 2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl diphenylphoshine oxide (TPO). © 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Use of the simplex method to optimize the mobile phase for the micellar chromatographic separation of inorganic anions

The sequential simplex strategy has been used to optimize the mobile phase used for separation of inorganic anions by micellar chromatography on a C(18)- micro Bondapak column, with absorption detection at 230 nm. The amount of acetonitrile and the concentration of phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) were chosen for optimization. The optimum mobile phase was found to be 38% acetonitrile in 18.2 mmol L(-1) phosphate buffer (pH 6.0) containing 10 mmol L(-1) cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB); this optimum was achieved within seven experiments. The separation of the five anions (nitrite, nitrate, iodide, thiocyanate, and thiosulfate) was accomplished in 18 min.

Ion-pair solid-phase extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometric determination of acidic hydrolysis products of chemical warfare agents from aqueous samples

The chemical warfare agents (CWA) degrade rapidly in aqueous samples and convert to acidic degradation products. Extraction and identification of the degradation products from complex matrices using simple sample preparation and sensitive detection and identification is the most important step in the off-site analysis of samples. In this present study, we report a simple sample preparation step based on ion-pair (IP) solid-phase extraction (SPE) for the extraction of acidic degradation products of CWA namely methyl, ethyl, propyl phosphonic acids, thiodiglycolic acid and benzilic acid. The analysis was performed on GC-MS in electron impact ionization mode. Three IP reagents triethylamine (TEA), tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) and cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) were used. The recoveries were estimated using the internal and external standard methods. The recovery of the compounds was almost negligible when TEA was used as IP reagent. The recoveries obtained when TBAB and CTAB were used as IP reagents were high and reproducible. The recovery of test chemicals is above 90%, except for methyl phosphonic acid and ethylphosphonic acid (20.6 +/- 3.2% and 35.8 +/- 2.5%, respectively). The minimum detection limits of the method were calculated for all chemicals in both full scan and selected ion monitoring modes. The test chemicals could be detected in microgram per litre quantities by the IP-SPE method.

A novel insertion reaction of epoxy compounds into phenyl ester linkages in polymer chains

The insertion reaction of various epoxy compounds such as phenyl glycidyl ether (PGE), methyl glycidyl ether, butyl glycidyl ether (BGE), and styrene oxide into the phenyl ester linkage in the polymer chain was investigated using quaternary ammonium salts as catalysts in diglyme, anisole, sulfolane, o-dichlorobenzene, or DMSO at 100–150°C. The reaction of PGE with poly[4-(4-nitrobenzoyloxy)styrene] (polymer 1a ) proceeded almost quantitatively to give the corresponding polymer using tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as catalyst in diglyme at 100°C for 24 h. The reactions of BGE with poly(4-nitrophenyl methacrylate), and copolyarylate derived from 2,2-bis(4-hydroxyphenyl)-1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoropropane and iso- and terephthaloyl chlorides also produced the corresponding polymers with 86 and 89 mol% new structural units, respectively, using TBAB in sulfolane at 150°C for 24 h. Furthermore, it was found that the degree of insertion of the epoxy compound into the ester linkage in the polymer chain was affected by the kind of epoxy compound, reaction solvent, catalyst concentration, substituent group on the phenyl ester, and structure of the polymer. Chiral polymers were also synthesized with high degrees of insertion by the reaction of chiral epoxides such as (R)-1,2-epoxyhexane, (R)-1,2-epoxyheptane, and (R)-1,2-epoxydecane with polymer 1a and poly(2,4-dichlorophenyl methacrylate) using TBAB in diglyme at 120°C for 24 h.     

Synthesis of gold nano- and microplates in hexagonal liquid crystals

Single-crystalline gold nano- and microplates with triangular or hexagonal shapes are synthesized by reduction of HAuCl(4) in lyotropic liquid crystal (LLC) mainly made of poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymers and water after adding a small amount of capping agents, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) or tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB). During the growth of such plates, capping agents play the crucial role. It is found that there is an optimal value of CTAB or TBAB concentration for producing microplates. The selective adsorption of CTAB or TBAB on certain crystallographic facets may be the key point of the supposed mechanism. Although LLC does not really act as a template, it provides an ordered structure confining CTAB as well as the nascent metal nuclei, which enhances the oriented attachment of nuclei and thus the consequent growth of single-crystal plates.

Determination of 5-aminosalicylic acid related impurities by micellar electrokinetic chromatography with an ion-pair reagent

A micellar electrokinetic chromatographic (MEKC) method was developed for the quantification of mesalazine or 5-aminosalicylic acid (5-ASA) and its major impurities 3-aminosalicylic acid, salicylic acid, sulfanilic acid and 4-aminophenol. The optimisation of the experimental conditions was carried out considering some important requirements: resolution, reproducibility, detection limits of 0.1% (m/m) or less, short total analysis time. Preliminary investigations employing sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as surfactant did not lead to the necessary resolution of the studied compounds; the addition of tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) to the SDS micellar system resulted in the complete separation of all the compounds. The effects on the separation by several parameters such as TBAB concentration, SDS concentration, background electrolyte pH and concentration, were evaluated. Using a fused-silica capillary (8.5 cm effective length) complete analysis was obtained in a very short time. Under the optimised final conditions [120 mM 3-(cyclohexylamino)-2-hydroxy-1-propanesulfonic acid buffer, pH 10.20, 65 mM SDS in the presence of 55 mM TBAB and 5% methanol] the method was validated for specificity, precision, linearity, limits of detection and quantitation, and robustness: the 5-ASA related impurities can be quantified at least at the 0.1% (m/m) level.     

Perchlorate removal by granular activated carbon coated with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide

In this study, granular activated carbon (GAC) coated with cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) (GAC-CTAB) was synthesized to remove perchlorate from water via adsorption. Laboratory-scale batch experiments were performed to study the factors affecting the perchlorate adsorption by GAC-CTAB, including the CTAB content and solution pH, and explore the mechanisms behind the adsorption phenomenon. The novel GAC-CTAB material was characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), zeta potential measurement and Brunauer-Emmett-Teller (BET) analysis. The characterization tests showed that CTAB was deposited on the GAC surface, pH(pzc) of the material was between 2.0 and 3.0, and the BET specific surface area was reduced from 925 to 729 m(2)/g with the increasing CTAB content from 0 to 0.034 mmol CTAB/g GAC. The adsorption process was better described by a pseudo-second-order kinetics model and the Freundlich adsorption model. The CTAB content and solution pH significantly influenced the kinetics and chemical equilibrium of the adsorption. When the CTAB content was increased from 0.0.023 to 0.135 mmol CTAB/g GAC, the K in the Freundlich adsorption isotherm increased from 0.071 to 0.19 mmol/g. The optimal adsorption typically occurred at pH 2-3, close to the pH(pzc) of the solution. Finally, the mechanisms for the adsorption of perchlorate on GAC-CTAB were associated with surface complexation, electrostatic interaction and ion exchange.     

One-Pot Synthesis and Methylation of 3-[2-(1H-Benzimidazol-2-yl-Sulfanyl)-Acetyl]-Chromen-2-Ones

Abstract

3-(2-Bromoacetyl)coumarins (I), when treated with 2-mercatobenzimidazole (II) in acetone containing K₂CO₃ (mild base) and tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB) as a phase transfer catalyst, at room temperature yielded the title compound 3-[2-(1H-benzimidazole-2-yl-sufanyl)-acetyl]-chromen-2-one (III) in a one-pot synthesis. Alternatively, III could also be prepared by treating dithiocarbonic acid O-ethyl ester, S-[2-oxo-2-(2-oxo-2H-chromen3-yl)-ethyl] ester (V), with o-phenylenediamine (VI). The methylation of the title compound III was performed with dimethyl sulfate (DMS), in acetonitrile containing TBAB and K₂CO₃ at room temperature, resulting in 3-[2-(N-methyl-benzimidazol-2-yl-sulfanyl)]-acetyl-chromen-2-ones (VII). Alternatively, methylation of III could also be performed with DMS in acetonitrile containing K₂CO₃ as base and clay as surface catalyst. All the compounds were synthesized in good yields and their structures were confirmed by spectral and analytical data.
