Two and k-Photon Jaynes–Cummings Models and Dirac Oscillator Problem in Bargmann–Segal Representation

In this work, we show that the Bargmann–Segal representation is a very simple approach to obtain the energy eigenvalues of some two-level quantum systems. It is shown that for 2-photon and k-photon Jaynes–Cummings models, the Bargmann–Segal realization gives the same energy eigenvalue which obtained by Lie algebraic and the matrix methods. We also study the Dirac oscillator problem in this representation.

Phosphorylated PEG (PPEG) as a new support for generation of nano‐Pd(0): application to the Heck–Mizoroki and Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reactions

Polyethylene glycols (PEGs) with different molecular weights (M_w = 200, 400, 1000) were phosphorylated to their bis‐diphenyl phosphinite derivatives as stable solids which are melted in the range 140–160°C. These phosphorylated PEGs were used as ligands and reducing agents to generate nano‐Pd(0) catalysts in 2.5–8.3 nm. The nano‐Pd(0) particles supported on phosphorylated PEG₂₀₀ were applied for the efficient Heck–Mizoroki carbon–carbon coupling reactions of ArX (X = Cl, Br, I) at 80–100°C under solvent‐free conditions and for the Suzuki–Miyaura coupling reaction in ethanol at 70°C. The catalyst was recycled easily and reused for several runs. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Synthesis,characterization and cytotoxicity of new 2‐isonicotinoyl‐N‐phenylhydrazine‐1‐carbothioamide and its metal complexes

The reaction of the newly synthesized ligand, 2‐isonicotinoyl‐N‐phenylhydrazine‐1‐carbothioamide (H₃L), with acetate salt of Co (II), Cu (II),Ni (II) and Zn (II) led to isolation of four solid complexes. The ligand and complexes structure elucidation were based on elemental analyses, spectral analyses (IR, UV–Visible, ¹H and¹³C‐NMR, MS and ESR), TGA, molar conductivity and magnetic moments measurements. The results indicated that the ligand exists in the thioketo form, while on coordination to the metal ions; it behaves as mono‐negative bidentate chelate and exists in enol form. The optical band gap measurements of the ligand and its metal complexes are in the range 3.83–4.48 eV indicating their semi‐conducting character. The cytotoxicity examination of H₃L and its Zn (II) complex showed that the ligand have very strong cytotoxicity against both HCT‐116 and HEPG‐2 cell lines while, Zn (II) complex has moderate activity.

Spectral and Thermal Studies of Some New Metal Complexes Derived from N-[(Phenylamino)Thioxomethyl] Hydrazinocarbonyl Methyl Pyridinium Chloride (PTHMPC)

New metal complexes derived from the reaction of N-[(phenylamino)thioxomethyl] hydrazino carbonyl methyl pyridinium chloride (H₂L; PTHMPC) with some metal salts of the general formula MX₂ [(X = Cl^? and/or CH₃COO^?; M = Cd(II), UO₂(II), Mn(II) and Zr(IV)] were synthesized and characterized by elemental analyses, spectral analyses (IR, UV-vis., ¹H NMR), thermal analyses (TGA, DTG), and conductance and magnetic measurements. The results showed that the ligand exists in metal complexes either in the keto form or in the enol form. Moreover, the IR spectral data suggest that the acetate ion behaves in a monodentate manner. Semi-empirical calculations ZINDO/1, PM3, and AM1 have been used to study the molecular geometry and the harmonic vibrational spectra of the ligand and its metal complexes with the purpose of assisting the experimental assignment of the complexes. Generally, there is an agreement between the observed and the calculated spectra. Finally, the thermodynamic parameters (ΔE*, ΔH, ΔG, and ΔS) have been calculated from the data of thermal analyses (TGA and DTG).

The First Mitsunobu Protocol for Efficient Synthesis of α-Acyloxyphosphonates Using 4,4′-Azopyridine

Abstract

This is the first report on applying the Mitsunobu protocol for the synthesis of various α-acyloxyphosphonates using 4,4′-azopyridine and PPh₃ with diverse aromatic and aliphatic carboxylic acids. Under these conditions, diethyl azodicarboxylate (DEAD) as the traditional reagent for Mitsunobu reaction is not efficient. The insoluble pyridine hydrazine byproduct can be simply isolated and recycled to its azopyridine by an oxidation reaction and reused again.

GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT      

Silicon-Containing Condensation Polymers Derived from Long-Chain Fatty Acids

Silicon-containing condensation polymers were prepared starting from difunctional silicon-containing carboxylic acids or diols derived from long-chain fatty acids. Polyesters were synthesized by reaction of diacids containing siloxane linkages with diols, and diols containing siloxane linkages with various diacids. 1,3-Bis (10-carboxydecyl)tetramethyldisiloxane was condensed with various diamines to yield polyamides. 1,3-Bis(11-hydroxyundecyl)tetramethyldisiloxane and 1,3-bis [9(10)-hydroxyoctadecyl]tetramethyldisiloxane were condensed with diisocyanates to yield polyurethanes. Polycarbonates were synthesized by reacting the diols containing siloxane linkages with ethyl chloroformate. Some polybenzimidazols were synthesized by heating the diesters of the silicon-containing carboxylic acids with 3,3′ -diaminobenzidine. Some of the polyurethanes and polybenzimidazoles were thermally stable up to 300°C as indicated by TGA.
