Photochemical reactivity of sulfamethoxazole and other sulfa compounds with photodiode array detection

The photochemical activities of six sulfa compounds [sulfacetamide (CET), sulfadiazine (DIA), sulfaguanidine (GUA), sulfamerazine (MER), sulfamethoxazole (SMX), and sulfamethizole (MET)] under different experimental conditions such as photolysis time, solvent and buffer pH are investigated by photodiode array (PDA) spectrophotometry. With no photolysis, the sulfa drugs CET and DIA show no absorbance at 332 nm and the other compounds only modest absorbance. Upon photolysis for 4 min, absorbance enhancements at 332 nm of three to four times for GUA and MET and 12-15 times for SMX and MER are observed. For CET and DIA after photolysis, the (absorbance) l/mg is now approximately 0.01-0.02 units. Although two pH optima of approximately 3-4 and 7 are noted, the optimum solvent for photolysis is ethanol without pH adjustment. For flow injection (FI) with on-line photolysis and PDA detection, a mobile phase of 100% ethanol with a step flow rate from 0.1 to 1 ml/min is used providing a 4-min reaction time. The FI detection limit for SMX with photolysis at 330 nm is 1 mg/l. The relative standard deviation data (n=4) of seven individual points in a calibration curve from 5 to 150 mg/l are 0-4%. The recovery of SMX from pharmaceutical tablets is 99.7% indicating no interference from trimethoprim which is not photochemically active.

Oxygen Inhibition and Coating Thickness Effects on Uv Radiation Curing of Weatherfast Clearcoats Studied by Photo-DSC

Radiation curing is an environmentally-friendly technology. Furthermore, radiation curing is a faster, energy saving and more efficient industrial process than the heat-curable process. One of the most important requirements for the widespread application of UV curable coatings in the coating industry is that they are stable vs. atmospheric degradation. Today's state of the art in oxidative drying and thermosetting coatings is the use of light stabilizers to protect polymers vs. the damage of outdoor exposure. Oxygen has a detrimental effect on the cure response of free radical systems, especially in thin-film coatings. Differential photocalorimetry (photo-DSC) was used to investigate the oxygen effect and the use of light stabilizers on UV curing of photocurable formulations based on acrylate materials. Coating thickness influence was also considered. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

Detectability enhancement of spectrophotometric detectors by the use of multidimensional gas chromatography

Multidimensional gas chromatography (2D GC) is demonstrated as a way to improve limits of detectability of spectrophotometric detectors. UV and IR detectors are generally less sensitive than mass spectrometers or other GC detectors. This has placed some limitations on the useful capabilities provided by spectrophotometric detectors, such as the ability to provide structure‐related information for a particular analyte. In this paper, we report results from interfacing a 2D GC instrument to a UV detector. Symmetry factor and the ratio of retention time divided by peak width did not show deterioration of the quality of chromatography when a megabore column was used with this detector. Furthermore, an increase in the limits of detectability over that attainable in a single‐column system was realized by using the 2D GC system. However, the low flow (1 mL/min) imposed by the use of a microbore column (250 μm ID) caused significant tailing when the UV detector was used.     

Synthesis and properties of novel polyurethanes containing 3,4‐dioxybenzylidenecyanoacetate group as a nonlinear optical chromophore

Methyl 3,4‐di‐(2′‐hydroxyethoxy)benzylidenecyanoacetate ( 3 ) was prepared by hydrolysis of methyl 3,4‐di‐(2′‐vinyloxyethoxy)benzylidenecyanoacetate ( 2 ). Diol 3 was condensed with 2,4‐toluenediisocyanate, 3,3′‐dimethoxy‐4,4′‐biphenylenediisocyanate, and 1,6‐hexamethylenediisocyanate to yield polyurethanes 4 – 6 containing the nonlinear optical chromophore 3,4‐dioxybenzylidenecyanoacetate. The resulting polyurethanes 4 – 6 were soluble in common organic solvents such as acetone and dimethylformamide. Polymers 4 – 6 indicated thermal stability up to 300 °C in thermogravimetric thermograms with glass‐transition temperature values obtained from differential scanning calorimetric thermograms in the range of 78–102 °C. The second‐harmonic generation coefficients (d₃₃) of the poled polymer films were around 6.9 × 10^?9 esu. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 40: 1742–1748, 2002

Basicity of 2-phenyl-5-R-1,3,4-oxadiazoles

We have studied the basicity of 2-phenyl-5-R-1,3,4-oxadiazoles (R = H, Me, CH₂Ph, t-Bu, CH₂Cl, CCl₃, CF₃) in aqueous sulfuric acid solutions. These compounds are weak organic bases (pK_BH ⁺ is −1.8 to −5.2). The values of pK_BH ⁺ determined on the H₀ and X acidity function scales agree well with each other. The substituent at the 5 position has a substantial effect on the basicity of the 1,3,4-oxadiazole ring. __________ Translated from Khimiya Geterotsiklicheskikh Soedinenii, No. 5, pp. 748–756, May, 2006.     

Selective degradation of lignin and elimination of HO radicals in pulps by O<Subscript>3</Subscript> and UV laser flash irradiation

HO^. radical is an aggressive reagent to abstract hydrogen from diverse substitutes and lead them to degradation, however, in reaction of active oxygen species with lignins, complex phenolic polymers, in dispersed lignocellulose such as pulp for environment-benign delignification, HO^. radicals should be eliminated as more as possible to prevent cellulose from unfavorably concomitant degradation. A reaction system of O₃ is constructed under UV laser flash irradiation, and HO^. radicals are controlled efficiently by it. A new mechanism is proposed, for the first time, that O^. radicals generated from reaction of O₃ with UV laser flash irradiation might be the contributor to scavenge HO^. radicals.
