Fluorescence decay and quenching of pyrene labeled on sulfonate polyelectrolytes in salt-free aqueous solutions

Fluorescence decay and quenching of pyrene labels on copolymers of 2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulphonic acid (AMPS) and N,N-dimethylacrylamide were observed in dilute salt-free aqueous solutions as a function of the mole fraction F_AMPS of AMPS from 0 to 0.896. Monoexponential decay was found for the samples of F_AMPS<0.35 and biexponential decay for the samples of F_AMPS>0.35. The fast decay component is 80%, and the averaged lifetime 〈τ〉 and lifetime τ₁ of the fast decay is decreased with increasing F_AMPS. Quenching efficiency of Cu²⁺, I⁻, CH₃NO₂, and dinitrobenzene to the pyrene label was investigated in the framework of Stern-Volmer plot. With increasing F_AMPS the quenching efficiency of Cu²⁺ is increased while that of I⁻ decreased. For the neutral quenchers, the quenching rate constant k_q increases when F_AMPS<0.449 then decreases, showing a decline of accessibility to the pyrene label. These results were interpreted consistently with the counterion condensation concept, where condensed counterions caused the polyelectrolyte chains to aggregate. The existence of less-polar “temporal aggregated domain” in highly charged polyelectrolytes appears to lead to the slower decay and lower accessibility of the pyrene labels.     

Efficient combination of task-specific ionic liquid and microwave dielectric heating applied to one-pot three component synthesis of a small library of 4-thiazolidinones

The first report of the use of task-specific ionic liquid as synthetic equivalent of ionic liquid-phase matrice for the preparation of a small library of 4-thiazolidinones is reported in this paper. The starting (ethyleneglycol)ionic liquid-phase is functionalized in good yields with 4-(formylphenoxy)butyric acid by using usual esterification reaction conditions (DCC/DMAP as catalyst). The synthesis of the ionic liquid-phase bound 4-thiazolidinones was performed by a one-pot three-component condensation under microwave dielectric heating. The final cleavage under microwave/catalysis strategy provides the expected 4-thiazolidinones in high purity after flash-chromatography purification. According to the ionic liquid-phase organic synthesis (IoLiPOS) methodology, it was found that optimized reaction conditions were performed by standard analytical methods (NMR, TLC). The ¹H, ¹³C NMR spectrum of some representative 4-thiazolidinones and ionic liquid-phase bound benzaldehyde are also reported.

Synthesis of Chiral Cyclohexenones from α-Campholenic,Fencholenic, and β-Campholenic Derivatives

Summary. Optically active dimethylcyclohexenones, potential building blocks for enantioselective syntheses of various naturally active substances, were prepared. These compounds were obtained by oxidation with KMnO₄/Pb(OAc)₄ or ozonolysis of the corresponding cyclopentenic precursors, followed by aldol condensation. During the course of the preparation intermediate diols and chiral polyfunctional carbonyl derivatives were separated and identified analytically.

The synthetic diphosphate Na₂CaP₂O₇ is a new basic catalyst for the synthesis of unsaturated arylsulfones. The condensation was carried out under mild conditions at room temperature in methanol or ethanol. The optimum of the catalyst's activity is reached when water is added, leading to good yields.     

Demonstration of methylene-ether bridge formation in melamine-formaldehyde resins

¹H and ¹³C NMR have been used for the quantitative determination of methylene-ether bridges in melamine-formaldehyde (MF) resins. The amount of methylene-ether bridges was determined by ¹³C NMR from the number of monomethylolated amino groups consumed in the condensation reactions and is in agreement with that calculated from the condensation water contents. This latter method, which involves a combination of ¹H and ¹³C NMR, is based on the amount of condensation water released during the formation of both methylene and methylene-ether bridges. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.     

Synthesis of Calix[4]arene Derivatives with NLO Properties

The new chromophore compounds with NLO properties were prepared by Knoevenagel condensation from forrnyl or diformyl calix[4/arene and isophorone derivatives in the presence of piperidine and acetic acid, respectively. In these chromophore calix[4]arenes, the ring locked trienes were employed as the conjugation bridge and electron acceptor in D-π-A units. The NMR spectra demonstrated that they existed in a cone conformation and consequently non-conjugated D-π-A units could be oriented at nearly the same direction.
