A series of macrocyclic ether-esters has been prepared by treating various glycols with adipoyl chloride and various substituted malonyl, succinyl and glutaryl chlorides. The prepared compounds include: 15-ethyl- and 15-phenyl-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxacyclohexadecane-14,16-dione (5 and 6); 15-methyl-, 15-phenyl-, cis-cyclohexo-[o]-and benzo-[o]-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxacycloheptadecane-14,17-dione (7–10); trans,trans-1,4,7,10,13,18,21,24,27,30-de-caoxacyclotetratriacontane-15, 32-diene-14,17,31,34-tetraone (11); 1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxacyclooctadecane-14,18-dione (12); 15,15,16,16,17,17-hexafluoro- and 16-methyl-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxacyclooctadecane-14,18-dione (13 and 14); 1,4,7,10-tetraoxacyclohexadecane-11,16-dione (15); and 1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxacyclononadecane-14,19-dione (16).

The solvent extraction of univalent metal cations with N,N'-dibenzyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16 diaza-2,3,11,12-dibenzocycloocta deca-2,11-diene (L(1)), N,N' didodecyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diaza-2,3-benzocylooctadeca-2 ene (L(2)) and N,N'-dibenzyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16 diaza-2,3,11,12-dibenzocyclo octadeca-2,11-diene (L(3)) with picrate anion into dichloromethane has been studied at 25 degrees C by UV-visible spectroscopy. The extractability and selectivity of univalent metal picrates (Li(+), Na(+), Ag(+), PhCH(2)NH(3)(+), NH(4)(+)) was evaluated as a function of [ligand]/[metal cation]. L(2) showed the highest extractability and selectivity for Li(+) over the larger studied cations, and also exhibited the highest [Li(+)]/[NH(4)(+)] selectivity as L/M=1.     

The syntheses of phenol-containing diazamacrocycles and liquid membrane transports of alkali cations

Two new bisphenol-containing diazacrown ether derivatives, 7,16-bis(2-hydroxy-5-ethylbenzoatebenzyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (1) and 7,16-bis(2-hydroxy-3,4-dimethylbenzyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (2), have been synthesized via one-pot Mannich reaction. The compound 1 is structurally characterized. The liquid membrane transports of alkali metal cations using these two new diazamacrocycles and the other previously prepared diazamacrocyclic derivative 7,16-bis(3-hydroxy-6-methyl-2-pyridylmethyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (3) as ion-carriers are also studied. The results show that the rates of cation transports are closely related to the number of nitrogen donors and the steric effect of the substituted groups. Compared with other macrocyclic compounds, compound 1 shows a good selectivity for Li⁺, therefore providing a new efficient carrier for Li⁺ extraction.

Continuous flow analysis of lead (II) and mercury (II) with substituted diazacrown ionophore membrane electrodes

A novel flow cell for use with ion-selective membrane electrodes is reported in which the carrier stream is drawn through a tube that suppresses the pump noise. PVC membrane electrodes based on 7,16-dithenoyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (DTODC), and 7,16-di-(2-thiopheneacetyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (DTAODC) for lead (II), and 7,16-dithenyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (DTDC) and 7,16-di-(2-methylquinolyl)-1,4,10,13-tertraoxa-7,16-diazacyclootadecane (DQDC), for mercury (II) were prepared and evaluated. The linear ranges were pPb: 5.5-3.0 (DTODC) and 6.0-2.0 (DTAODC); pHg: 5.5-3.0 (DTDC) and 4.5-2.5 (DQDC). With flow rate of 3 ml min(-1) the repeatability of measurements was less than 5% RSD (n = 3). The system was applied to the determination of lead (II) and mercury (II) in spiked natural water samples.

The influence of side-chains on the complexation of cations by crowns. synthesis and cu(ii) complexation of n,n'-diaryl-diaza-18-crown-6

Various N,N'-diaryl derivatives of l,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane were synthesized. 7,16-diphenyl-l,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctad On the contrary, diamide derivatives of 7,16-di[(2-amino)phenyl]-l,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16- diazacyclooctadecane were deprotonated by Cu(II) and formed stable chelates. Spectral data suggest that monodeprotonation gives dissymmetric 1:1-complexes and dideprotonation gives symmetric 1: 1-complexes.     

Synthesis and crystal structure of copper complex of 7,16-bis(2-hydroxy-5-methyl-3-nitrobenzyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane

A lariat crown ether compound 7,16-bis(2-hydroxy-5-methylbenzyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane has been prepared via one-pot Mannich reaction. A copper(II) complex with the ligand 7,16-bis(2-hydroxy-5-methyl-3-nitrobenzyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane was unexpectedly synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR and UV spectra. The crystal structure of the complex has been determined by X-ray diffraction. Both crystal structure analysis and spectroscopy study indicated that the side-arm phenols of lariat crown ether are nitrated while complexing with Cu(NO₃)₂. Structure shows that the copper(II) ion is coordinated to two nitrogen and four oxygen atoms, two from the crown ether and other two from the deprotonated phenolate groups. The coordination polyhedron is a distorted octahedron.     

Lead-selective membrane electrodes based on dithiophenediazacrown ether derivatives

Three double-armed diazacrown ethers with two thiophene side groups, 7,16-dithenyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (DTDC), 7,16-dithenoyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (DTODC), and 7,16-di-(2-thiopheneacetyl)-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane (DTAODC), have been synthesized and used as novel neutral lead(II) ionophores in ion selective electrode applications. The relationship between the molecular structure of these ionophores and electrochemical properties (linear range, response time, selectivity) of the membrane electrode is discussed. The optimum conditions for the preparation of the electrodes are described. The optimized dithenoyldiazacrown had a detection limit of pPb = 5.7, and Nernstian range with slope 29.2 mV decade⁻¹ from pPb = 5.0 to 2.7. Mercury and silver ions are the major interferences. These electrodes are applied to potentiometric titrations of lead(II) ions and show promise for the determination of lead ions in water samples.

Synthesis of 4-Amino-substituted-6-hydroxy and 11-hydroxynaphtho[2,3-g]quinoline-5,12-diones,and the unexpected formation of disubstituted imidazo[4,5,l-i,j]naphtho[2,3-g]quinolin-7-ones

4-Chloroquinoline-5,8-dione ( 8a ) and 6-bromo-4-chloroquinoline-5,8-dione ( 8b ) were reacted with homophthalic anhydride to give tetracyclic compounds 10 and 11 respectively. The 6,11-dihydroxy derivative 12 was prepared in low yield by photochemical addition of benzocyclobutenedione to 4-chloroquinoline-5,8-dione ( 8a ) and in better yield through a Friedel-Crafts reaction of phthalic anhydride with 4-chloro-5,8-dimethoxyquinoline ( 7a ). Whereas 4-chloro-6-hydroxynaphtho[2,3-g]quinoline-5,12-dione ( 11 ) was substituted by amines in the usual way to the corresponding 4-amino-substituted derivatives, 4-chloro-11-hydroxynaph-tho[2,3-g]quinoline-5,12-dione ( 10 ) led to a mixture of 4-amino derivatives and the unexpected 2,6-disubstituted-imidazo[4,5,l-I-j]naphtho[2,3-g]quinolin-7-ones, 13a-b .     

Electrochemical behavior of nicotinamide using carbon paste electrode modified with macrocyclic compounds

The electrochemical behavior of nicotinamide was studied at a carbon paste electrode and the electrodes modified with macrocyclic compounds using voltammetric and impedance measurements. The electrodes so formed were able to bind nicotinamide ions chemically and gave better voltammetric responses than the unmodified ones. The macrocycles used as modifiers for the electrode preparation were 18-crown-6, dicyclohexano-18-crown-6, dibenzo-18-crown-6, 7,16-dibenzyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane, 1,4,7,10,13,16-hexathiacyclooctadecane (Hexathia), 1,4,7,10-tetratosyl-1,4,7,10-tetraazacyclododecane, 1,4,8,11-tetraazacyclooctadecane, c-Methylcalix[4]resorcenarene and calix[8]arene. Among these macrocyclic modified electrodes, hexathia showed more affinity towards nicotinamide and a 2.3-fold increase in voltammetric signal was obtained. Impedance measurement was used to confirm this enhancement observed on modified electrode. This increase in anodic peak current was then used for finding linear working range, which was 0.1–500 μg mL⁻¹ with a detection limit of 0.03 μg mL⁻¹ by DPV. Interference from other vitamins like thiamine HCl (Vit. B₁), riboflavin (Vit. B₂), pyridoxine HCl (Vit. B₆) cynocobamine (Vit. B₁₂), para-aminobenzoic acid (PABA) and ascorbic acid (Vit. C) was also studied. The modified electrode could be used for the simultaneous determination of riboflavin, nicotinamide and pyridoxine HCl. It has also been utilized for the analysis of nicotinamide in pharmaceutical preparations.     

Heterocyclic analogs of 5,12-naphthacenequinone 7*. Synthesis of naphtho-[2,3-f]isatin-5,10-dione derivatives

On chlorination of 4,11-dimethoxynaphtho[2,3-f]indole-5,10-dione with sulfuryl chloride in chloroform, its mono-, di-, and trichloro derivatives are formed depending on the conditions. Hydrolysis of the di- and trichloro derivatives gives a new polycondensed derivative of isatin, 4,11-dimethoxynaphtho-[2,3-f]isatin-5,10-dione. Its demethylation occurs effectively on extended heating with HBr in acetic acid and leads to 4,11-dihydroxynaphtho[2,3-f]isatin-5,10-dione (4,11-di-hydroxynaphtho[2,3-f]indole-2,3,5,10-tetraone). *For Communication 6 see [1].

Extension to other heterocyclic quinones such as thieno[3,2-g]quinoline-4,9-dione (8) and benzo[j]phenanthridine-7,12-dione (11) is also investigated.     

Charge-transfer triiodide ion-selective electrode based on 7,16-dibenzyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane.

A new PVC membrane electrode for the triiodide ion based on a charge-transfer complex of iodine with 7,16-dibenzyl-1,4,10,13-tetraoxa-7,16-diazacyclooctadecane as a membrane carrier was prepared. The electrode exhibits a Nernstian response for triiodide ions over a wide concentration range (1.0 x 10(-1)-1.0 x 10(-5) M) with a slope of 59.3 +/- 0.9 mV decade(-1) and a detection limit of 6.3 x 10(-6) M. It has a response time of 30 s and can be used for at least 3 months without any divergence in the potential. The potentiometric response is independent of the pH, in the pH range 1.6 - 10.0. The proposed electrode has shown very high selectivity for the triiodide ion over a wide variety of other anions. This electrode was successfully applied as an indicator electrode in the potentiometric titration of ascorbic acid and hydroquinone from pharmaceutical preparations as well as ascorbic acid in orange juice and dissolved O2 in tap water.

Cation binding properties of poly(crown ethers) with photodimerizable groups

Polymers that have crown ether groups as cation binding sites and cinnamic acid ester groups as photodimerizable groups were prepared by the cationic polymerizations of 2-vinyloxyethyl 4′-(2,3-benzo-1,4,7,10,13-pentaoxa-2-cyclopentadecene)acrylate and 2-vinyloxyethyl 4′-(2,3-benzo-1,4,7,10,13,16-hexaoxa-2-cyclooctadecene)acrylate. When irradiated with ultraviolet (UV) light the cinnamic acid ester groups of the polymers caused dimerization in dilute solution without the formation of insoluble materials. The irradiation was carried out in a dioxane solution and an aqueous solution in the presence and absence of salts. The effect of phototransformation of polymers on the cation binding properties was investigated by a method of picrate salts extraction. The binding ability of the phototransformed polymers for alkali and alkaline earth metal cations was higher than that of the native polymer. Furthermore the cation binding ability of the phototransformed polymers was less sensitive to temperature than that of the native polymer. The effect of the degree of photodimerization of the polymers and the concentration of KCl that exists during irradiation on the cation binding ability was also investigated.
