Spectral characterization ofβ-Cyclodextrin : Triton X-100 complexes

The spectral characteristics of the surfactant, Triton X-100, in the absence and presence of-cyclodextrin have been examined. The fluorescence of Triton X-100 is concentration dependent and is markedly enhanced in the presence of-cyclodextrin. Analysis of the variations in the excitation-emission profiles of the surfactant with concentration suggests excimer emission at concentrations above the critical micelle concentration (CMC). Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy suggests that the phenyl group is included inside the CD cavity while a portion of the ethylene oxide chain extends outside the cavity. Benesi-Hildebrand type equations were derived to determine the stoichiometry and to estimate the formation constant of the CD: S_f complex.     

Influences of Triton X-100 on Hemoglobin Behaviors in Hemoglobin/Acyclovir/Triton X-100/H2O System

The influences of Triton X-100 on hemoglobin （Hb） behaviors were studied by the methods of UV-Vis spectrum, fluorescence spectrum, HPLC, conductivity, zeta potential and negative-staining transmission electron microscope in Hb/acyclovir/Triton X-100/H2O system. With the increase of Triton X-100 concentration in the system, the percentage of the free acyclovir increased from 58%--63% to 90%--94%. The static quenching constant and the association number of acyclovir to Hb decreased. The fluorescence spectrum, conductivity, zeta potential, fluorescence polarization and negative-staining morphology of Hb tended to recover to those of the original state of Hb in the same concentration of Hb. The interaction between Triton X-100 and Hb is stronger than that between acyclovir and Hb. Most Triton-X-100 was associated with Hb at low Triton X-100 concentration. But the interaction of Triton X-100 with Hb was apparently dominant in high Triton X-100 concentration. The Hb structure was unfolded and finally denatured.     

Micellization and surface activity of Triton X-100 in water–orthophosphoric medium

The adsorption isotherms of Triton X-100 for air/water–orthophosphoric acid interfaces were determined by the stripping method. The surface chemical parameters, Γ_max, F and ΔG°_A, and the aggregation ones, CMC and the ΔG_M, are determined in different H₂O/H₃PO₄ mixtures. For concentrations higher than 4 M, the values of the CMC, ΔG_M, Γ_max and ΔG°_A increase with increasing acid concentrations due to the occurring changes in the medium structure. ©2000 Académie des sciences / Éditions scientifiques et médicales Elsevier SASsurface tension / non-ionic surfactant / micellization / orthophosphoric acid     

Synthesis of new heterocycles through the reaction of β-lapachone with 1,2-diamines using Triton X-100 surfactant as catalyst in aqueous medium

Synthesis and characterization of magnetic nanoparticles

Magnetic nanoparticles with average diameter in the range of 6.4-8.3 nni have been synthesized by a chemical co-precipitation of Fe(Ⅱ)and Fe(Ⅲ)salts in 1.5 M NH4OH solution.The size of the magnetic particles is dependent on both temperature and the ionic strength of the iron ion solutions.The magnetic particles formed at higher temperature or lower ionic strength were slightly larger than those formed at lower temperature or higher ionic strength respectively.In spite of the different reaction conditions,all the resultant nanoparticles are nearly spherical and have a similar crystalline structure.At 300 K,such prepared nanoparticles are superparam-agnetic.The saturation magnetizations for 7.8 and 6.4 nm particles are 71 and 63 emu/g respectively,which are only ~ 20-30% less than the saturation magnetization(90 emu/g)of bulk Fe3O4 Our results indicated that a control of the reaction conditions could be used to tailor the size of magnetic nanoparticles in free precipitation.

Steric Considerations in Supramolecular Inclusion of Modified β-cyclodextrins with Triton X-100 and α-bromonaphthalene

Supramolecular inclusion of modified β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) with Triton X-100 (TX) and α-bromonaphthalene (BN) was studied by fluorescence and phosphorescence measurements. Major differences were observed in the magnitude of the apparent stability constants and quenching constants of the inclusion complexes. Methyl substitution on the rims of β-CD increased the binding of TX with β-CD but was unfavorable to the protection of the phenyl group of TX from fluorescence quenching and further accommodation of BN for steric considerations. According to the overall molecular size of β-CD, TX and BN, further inclusion of BN in the cavity of β-CD occupied by TX may force the flexible tert-octyl chain of TX to deform to a greater extent and close packing complexes were obtained. Phosphorescence of BN arising from intermolecular energy transfer between BN and the phenyl group of TX was observed when the phenyl group of TX was irradiated. In the case of heptakis(2,6-di-O-methyl)-β-CD, BN failed to penetrate into the cavity because of the steric hindrance of the methyl substituents at the rim of the β-CD cavity.

Composition of Surface Layer at the Water–Air Interface and Micelles of Triton X-100 + Rhamnolipid Mixtures

Measurements of the surface tensions, densities and viscosities of aqueous solutions of Triton X-100 (TX-100) and rhamnolipid (RL) mixtures, at constant concentration of RL or TX-100, were carried out. The measured values of the surface tension were compared to those determined using different theoretical models and on the basis of the surface tension of aqueous solutions of individual surfactants. From the surface tension isotherms, the Gibbs surface excess concentration of TX-100 and RL, the composition of surface layer and the standard Gibbs free energy of adsorption at the water–air interface were determined. Moreover, on the basis of surface tension, density and viscosity isotherms, the CMC of surfactants mixtures were evaluated. From the density isotherms, apparent and partial molar volumes of TX-100 and RL were also determined. These volumes were compared to those calculated from the sizes of TX-100 and RL molecules. There was observed a synergetic effect in the reduction of water surface tension and micelle formation, which was confirmed by the intermolecular interactions parameter. In the case of micelle formation, this effect was discussed based on the standard Gibbs free energy of micellization as well as of TX-100 and RL mixing in the micelles. The synergism of TX-100 and RL mixtures in the reduction of water surface tension and micelle formation was explained on the basis of electrostatic interactions between the hydrophilic part of TX-100 and RL molecules; this was supported by pH measurements.     

Synthesis and characterization of α,ω-dichloro-polymethylphenylsilane

The synthesis of a functional polysilane, α,ω-dichloro-polymethylphenylsilane (α,ω-dichloro-PMPS), based on the Wurtz-type reductive coupling, has been considered. A study of some reaction parameters shows that both yield and molecular weight distribution of α,ω-dichloro-PMPS can be greatly influenced by the work-up conditions, reaction time, monomer concentration and temperature during the initiation of the polymerization. By varying the synthesis conditions, different ratios of high and low molecular weight fractions were obtained. Samples of different molecular weight were isolated by fractional precipitation of the crude polymers. The chlorine-end functionalization was confirmed by ²⁹Si NMR spectroscopy and the concentration of end-groups was quantitatively determined by elemental analysis of chlorine.

Synthesis and characterization of β-fused porphyrin-BODIPY dyads

Novel dyads in which a porphyrin ring is directly fused through two β-pyrrolic carbons to a BODIPY^® moiety have been prepared using a stepwise approach starting from the copper(II) complex of pyrrolo[2,3-c]-5,10,15,20-tetraphenylporphyrin. Formylation and reaction with 3,5-dimethylpyrrole afforded 8; subsequent BF₂ complexation gave the TPP-BODIPY^® dyad in reasonable yields. Demetalation in TFA/H₂SO₄ led to the corresponding free base 12, opening the way to the subsequent preparation of the Zn complex 13. Both 12 and 13 exhibited complex optical spectra with an intensely red-shifted Q-band. Luminescence spectra displayed a very intense band around 700 nm making these species suitable as near-IR dyes and sensors in biological media. Optical analyses of 12, using the INDO/SCI technique, were performed to obtain information to establish the origin of the novel optical properties. These studies showed that the optical properties of 12 cannot be attributed to deformation of the molecular skeleton, but derive from the increased extension of the conjugation between the TPP and BODIPY^® π-systems.
