Investigation of spectroscopic studies and DFT calculations on glucofuranose derivatives of dithiophosphonates

Abstract

2,4-Bis(4-methoxyphenyl)-1,3,2,4-dithiadiphosphetane-2,4-disulfide (Lawesson’s reagent: LR) was reacted with 1,2:5,6-di-O-cyclohexylidene-α-D-glucofuranose and 1,2:5,6-di-O-isopropylidene-α-D-glucofuranose in toluene and gave rise to crude dithiophosphonic acids. The crude dithiophosphonic acids were treated with excess triethylamine and the triethylammonium salts of dithiophosphonic acids (1) and (2) were isolated by crystallization method. Compounds 1 and 2 were characterized by elemental analysis, IR, and NMR (¹H-, ¹³C- and ³¹P-) spectroscopies and mass spectrometry. In addition, NMR spectra, the electronic properties (the electronic chemical potential, electronegativity, chemical hardness and the global electrophilicity index) and NBO analysis of compound 2 have been calculated by using the Gaussian 16?W program. The electronic properties were calculated using Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) and Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (LUMO) energies by density functional method (DFT/B3LYP) at 6-31G(d,p) level. The HOMO and LUMO energies are ?5.9 and ?0.72?eV, respectively. The HOMO–LUMO energy difference is 5.18?eV and this value shows that compound 2 has a high stability and low reactivity.     

Microbial Screening of Copolymers of N‐Vinylimidazole with Phenacyl Methacrylate: Synthesis and Monomer Reactivity Ratios

N‐vinylimidazole (VIM), and phenacyl methacrylate (PAMA) copolymerized with different feed ratios using 1,4‐dioxane as a solvent and α,α'‐azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as an initiator at 60°C. Structure and composition of copolymers for a wide range of monomer feed were determined by elemental analysis (content of N for VIM‐units) and by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy through recorded analytical absorption bands for VIM (670 cm^?1 for C‐N of imidazole ring) and PAMA (1730 cm^?1 for C?O of ester group) units, respectively. Monomer reactivity ratios for VIM (M₁)‐PAMA (M₂) pair were determined by the application of conventional linearization methods such as Fineman‐Ross (F‐R) and Kelen‐Tüdös (KT) and a nonlinear error invariable model method using a computer program RREVM. The molecular weights (_w and _n) and polydispersity indices of the polymers were determined using gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Thermal behaviors of copolymers with various compositions were investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). Also, the apparent thermal decomposition activation energies (ΔE_d) were calculated by Ozawa method using the SETARAM Labsys TGA thermobalance. The antibacterial and antifungal effects of polymers were also tested on various bacteria, fungi and yeast.     

Synthesis of Some Polymer‐Metal Complexes and Elucidation of their Structures

In this study, the nine coordination polymers of Fe(III), Co(II) and Ni(II) salts have been synthesized using polyacrylamide (PAA), polt(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and their structures were characterized by magnetic and conductivity measurements, ultraviolet‐visible (UV‐VIS), FTIR spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The structures of Fe(III) complexes in the all coordination polymers were found as tetrahedral. The structures of PAA‐Co(II) coordination polymer was determined as octahedral geometry whereas PEG‐Co(II) and PVA‐Co(II) complexes showed as tetrahedral structure. PAA‐Ni(II) and PEG‐Ni(II) complexes have octahedral geometry, whereas PVA‐Ni(II) has a square planar structure. Besides, the stress‐strain experiments of PVA‐metal coordination polymers obtained rubber‐like structure were carried out and the value of breaking‐strain of PVA‐Ni(II) complex was found to be about 17% of vulcanized natural rubber. The conductivities of the resulting polymer‐metal complexes were measured by four‐probe technique and were found in the range 10^?5?10^?6 Scm^?1. Thus, it was suggested that they can be used in the field potential application of conducting polymers. TGA results revealed that among the complexes PEG‐Fe(III) and PVA‐Fe(III) complexes have the highest thermally stable.     

A Grafting Study on Partially Dehydrochlorinated Poly(vinyl chloride) by Atom Transfer Radical Polymerization

HCl elimination in low ratio was first carried out from poly(vinyl chloride) to increase allylic chlorines. Partially dehydrochlorinated poly(vinyl chloride), having a macroinitiator effect, was grafted with tert‐butyl methacrylate via atom transfer radical polymerization in the presence of CuBr/2,2′‐bipyridine at 64°C in tetrahydrofuran. Original poly(vinyl chloride) was also grafted with tert‐butyl methacrylate under the same conditions to compare with that of partially dehydrochlorinated poly(vinyl chloride). The graft copolymers were characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, ¹H and ¹³C‐NMR, differential scanning calorimetry, and gel permeation chromatography (GPC). Thermal stabilities of the graft copolymers were investigated by thermogravimetric analysis as compared with those of the macroinitiators.     

A Superacid-catalyzed Synthesis of Fluorescent Covalent Triazine Based Framework Containing Perylene Tetraanhydride Bisimide for Sensing to O-nitrophenol with Ultrahigh Sensitivity

Abstract

A mesoporous covalent triazine framework, PCPDI, was synthesized via an aromatic nitrile trimerization reaction of N,N′-di(4-cyanphenyl)- 3,4,9,10-tetracarboxydiimide (CPDI) by CF₃SO₃H catalyzed at 40?°C and this method avoids the use of noble metal catalyzers or high temperature reaction. PCPDI exhibits high thermal stability and strong fluorescence. The PCPDI shows ultrahigh sensitivity to tracing o-nitrophenol in chloroform with K_SV constant of 1.74?×?10⁵ L mol^?1 and detection limit (LOD) of 1.72?×?10^?11?mol L^?1.     

Preparation,Characterization and Electromagnetic Shielding Effectiveness of Conductive Polythiophene/Poly(ethylene terephthalate) Composite Fibers

Conductive polythiophene (PTh)/poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) composite fibers were prepared by polymerization of thiophene in the presence of PET fibers in acetonitrile medium using FeCl₃. The effects of polymerization conditions such as oxidant/monomer mol ratio and polymerization temperature and time on PTh content and surface electrical resistivity of PTh/PET composite fiber were investigated in detail. It was observed that the usage of preswelled PET fibers in dichloromethane increased the PTh content and decreased surface resistivity of composite fiber. Composite fiber having the highest PTh content (5.7%) and the lowest surface resistivity (80 kΩ) was obtained at 20°C with 1.25 M FeCl₃ and 0.42 M thiophene concentrations. The washing effects of laundering detergent and dry cleaning liquid on surface resistivity of composite fibers were investigated. The electromagnetic shielding effectiveness (EMSE) and relative shielding efficiency by absorption and reflection of composite fibers were measured in the radio and microwave frequency range. The results show that the EMSE values decreased with increasing frequency from radio waves to microwaves with an attenuation of 21 dB to 4 dB.

Design, synthesis and in vitro antitumor evaluation of novel diaryl urea derivatives bearing sulfonamide moiety

A novel series of diaryl urea derivatives bearing sulfonamide moiety have been designed and synthesized.Their in vitro antitumor effect against human cancer cell lines MX-1,A375,HepG2,Ketr3 and HT-29 was screened and evaluated by the standard MTT assay with sorafenib as the positive control.Some of the compounds showed significant inhibitory activity against multiple cell lines compared to sorafenib.In particular,2,6-dimethyl-4-{6-[3-(4-chloro-3-(trifluoromethyl)phenyl)urea]naphthalen-2-yl}sulfonyl morpholine(10d)was found to be the most potent against A375,HepG2 and Ketr3 with IC50values of 0.65–0.97mol/L,which were 5–20-fold more potent than sorafenib.Compound 10d emerged as a valuable lead for further optimization.     

Study of the Phase Transformation of Single Particles of Ga2O3 by UV‐Raman Spectroscopy and High‐Resolution TEM

By taking advantage of UV‐Raman spectroscopy and high‐resolution TEM (HRTEM), combined with the focused ion beam (FIB) technique, the transformation from GaOOH into α‐Ga₂O₃ and then into β‐Ga₂O₃ was followed. We found that the stepwise transformations took place from the surface region before developing into the bulk of single particles without particle agglomeration and growth. During the transformation from GaOOH into α‐Ga₂O₃, the elimination of water vapor through the dehydroxylation of GaOOH resulted in the formation of micropores in the single particles, whilst maintaining their particle size. For the phase transformation from α‐Ga₂O₃ into β‐Ga₂O₃, the nucleation of β‐Ga₂O₃ was found to occur at the surface defects and this process could be retarded by occupying these defects with a small amount of La₂O₃. By finely controlling the process of the phase transformation, the β‐Ga₂O₃ domains gradually developed from the surface into the bulk of the single particles without particle agglomeration. Therefore, the surface structure of the α‐Ga₂O₃ single particles can be easily tuned and a particle with an α@β core–shell phase structure has been obtained.
