Isomere Diamino-alkoxy-pyridin-carbonitrile — ihre Trennung und Verwendung als Kupplungskomponenten

The isomeric 4,6-diamino-2-alkoxy- (3), and 2,4-diamino-6-alkoxy-3-pyridine-carbonitriles (4) are obtained by treatment of 2-amino-1,1,3-tricyanopropene (1) with sodium alkoxides. Separation is based on their differentpK _a -values (3 a=2.01,4 a=4.17). Coupling reaction of3 a-c with benzenediazonium chloride in strong acidic medium leads to the yellow azo dyes5 a-c, whereas coupling of4 a requires a buffered solution (pH 4–6) to yield6. The UV-VIS spectra of the isomer pyridines and the azo dyes are discussed.     

Amidoamine calix[4]resorcinarene-based oligomers and polymers as efficient sorbents of azo dyes from water

The sorption behaviour of three kinds of macrocyclic sorbents – amidoamine tetradodecyloxyphenylencalix[4]resorcinarene 1 and tetramethyloxyphenylencalix[4]-resorcinarene 2; composition of calix[4]resorcinarene 1+2, and novel P.1 and P.2 polymers with amidoamine calix[4]resorcinarene units towards three water-soluble azo dyes – methyl orange (MO), acid orange (AO5) and Congo red (CR) was studied. All sorbents form supramolecular complexes with the aforesaid dyes. The best sorbent for MO was shown to be polymer P.1, for the AO5 – composition 1+2 and for the CR – macrocycle 2, with high sorption capacities (373, 497 and 625 mg/g, respectively). The main factor in the binding of dyes by all studied sorbents proved to be surface electrostatic interactions. In addition to the Coulomb interactions, the most important factor for the polymers appeared to be the ‘net’ structure of the polymer with a high concentration of binding sites, providing electrostatic, hydrogen, dipole–dipole and hydrophobic interaction. Hydrophobic substituents in the sorbents exert a significant influence on the dye sorption. The increase of the sorbents' hydrophobicity leads to a lower sorption capacity for MO and CR and a higher sorption capacity for AO5. It was shown that sorption efficiency of the sorbent depends on the ‘dye–sorbent’ structure conformity.

Also, the hydrazide 5 was reacted with carbon disulphide in ethanol to give potassium salt 10, which was reacted with hydrazine hydrate to afford aminotriazole derivative 11. The latter compound was reacted with carbon disulphide to afford thiadiazole derivative 12, which was treated with 2,3,4,6-tetra-O-acetyl-α-d-glucopyranosyl bromide to give the thioglycoside derivative 13. Deacetylation of the thioglycoside 13 using methanolic ammonia solution at room temperature afforded the deprotected thioglycoside 14.

This study contains the synthesis of silica gel-immobilized calix[4]arene derivative (TR-CL[4]P) as a new sorbent and its sorption studies towards Cu (II) ion in aqueous solution. The aldehyde pointed calix[4]arene derivative 5 was synthesized and then it was immobilized onto 3-aminopropilsilica gel (APS). In batch sorption experiments, the experimental results showed that TR-CL[4]P is effective sorbent towards Cu (II) ion.

Maximum Cu(II) removal was obtained at 30?°C, 30?min and pH 6.0 for TR-CL[4]P and the batch sorption capacity was found as 17.8?mg/g. The characteristics of the sorption process for Cu (II) ion were evaluated by using the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin–Radushkevich (D–R) adsorption isotherms. Also, thermodynamic parameters, i.e., ΔG, ΔS, and ΔH were calculated for the system.

Electrochemical behavior and in-vitro antimicrobial screening of some thienylazoaryls dyes

Background

A series of recently reported phenolic azo dyes 7a–e were prepared by coupling the thienyl diazonium sulfate of 3-Amino-4H-benzo[f]thieno[3,4-c](2H)chromen-4-one with selected diversely substituted phenolic and naphtholic derivatives. These compounds were evaluated for their antibacterial and antifungal activities. Furthermore their voltammetric behavior was compared at a glassy carbon electrode.

Results

The voltammetric behavior of the five recently reported azo dyes has been compared at a glassy carbon electrode. It is shown that the azo dyes 7a–e with a hydroxyl group in the ortho position with respect to the azo bridge give rise to well defined, irreversible peaks for the oxidation and reduction process within a pH range of 2–7. The mechanisms of electrochemical oxidation of compound 7a–c and 7e are proposed. For the hydroxyl-substituted dyes, re-oxidation peaks were obtained in the subsequent scan. The antimicrobial activities of the reported compounds 7a–e along with the entire precursors 1–4 and 6a–e were performed against selected bacterial and fungal species and their activities compared to those of nystatin, griseofulvin and ciprofloxacin used as reference drugs.

Conclusions

The present study showed significant antimicrobial activity of compounds 6d, 7a and 7c,e against the tested microorganisms; this result confirms the antimicrobial potency of azo compounds and some of their precursors.
