Specific and non-specific interactions of hydropseudohalic acids with water and organic solvents

Partition coefficients P of the HNCS, HNCO and HN₃ hydropseudohalic acids between a number of organic solvents and water were determined. It has been found that log P increases with pKa of the acid and with the basicity of the solvent, but the effect of pKa on P is the smaller the more basic is the solvent. The relationships have been explained in terms of hydrogen bond formation between undissociated acid and solvent molecules. H-bonding between the pseudohalic acids and organic solvents has been confirmed by IR spectra on the example of HN₃ in benzene. Association constants for H-bonding between the three acids and water, benzene, dibutyl ether and tri-n-butyl phosphate were determined from partition data. It has been found that H-bonding increases with the strength of the acid, whereas the contribution to partition from non-specific interactions with water and organic solvents depends on the molecular surface area of the acid molecule.

Improvement in the Physicochemical Properties of Ketoconazole through Complexation with Cyclodextrin Derivatives

Highly-soluble cyclodextrin derivatives, such as hydroxypropyl--cyclodextrin(HP--CD) and methyl--cyclodextrin (MEB), were tested as solubilizingagents for ketoconazole, with the aim of improving the physicochemical andbiopharmaceutical properties of this lipophilic imidazole antifungal agent. Productswere prepared in four molecular ratios by physical mixing, kneading and spray-dryingmethods. The kneaded products in a ratio of 1:2 and the spray-dried products exhibitedthe highest dissolution rates. The phase solubility diagrams of ketoconazole with thesecyclodextrins at 25 °C in water and in simulated intestinal medium wereconstructed. A solubility diagram of A_L type was obtained with HP--CD, and one of A_P type with MEB. The complexes were characterized by thermal methods(DSC, TG, DTG and DTA). Multicomponent systems were prepared with tartaric acid.The effects of water-soluble polymers, e.g., polyvinylpyrrolidone, on the aqueous solubility of ketoconazole were investigated. Particle size distribution, surface area, partition coefficient, heat of dissolution and wettability studies were also carried out. The formation of inclusion complexes was observed by means of thermoanalytical studies.

Analytical Separations of Schiff Base Chelates by Reverse Phase Hplc on a 10 Micron C-18 Bonded Silica Subtrate

Abstract

Reverse phase partition chromatography on a 10 micron silica-bonded octadecyl hydrocarbon substrate is applied to the separation of neutral tetradentate chelates of copper (II), nickel (II) and palladium (II) with a range of non-fluorinated and fluorinated beta-ketoamine and salicylaldimine ligands. Variation of retention and resolution with respect to changes in ligand structure and metal chelated is investigated using acetonitrile, methanol and water solvent systems. Detection limits (254 nm) and linearity ranges of response are indicated.     

New Method to Calculate Thermodynamic and Transport Properties of a Multi-Temperature Plasma: Application to N2 Plasma

Multi-temperature thermal plasmas have often to be considered to account for the nonequilibrium effects. Recently André et al. have developed the calculation of concentrations in a multi-temperature plasma by artificially separating the partition functions into a product by assuming that the excitation energies are those of the lower levels (electronic, vibration, and rotation). However, at equilibrium, differences, increasing with temperature, can be observed between partition functions calculated rigorously and with their method. This paper presents a modified method where it has been assumed that the preponderant rotational energy is that of the vibrational level v=0 of the ground electronic state and the preponderant vibrational energy is that of the ground electronic state. The internal partition function can then be expressed as a product of series expressions. At equilibrium for N ₂ and N ₂ ⁺ partition functions the values calculated with our method differ by less than 0.1% from those calculated rigorously. The calculation has been limited to three temperatures: heavy species T_h , electrons T_e , and vibrational T _v temperatures. The plasma composition has been calculated by minimizing the Gibbs free enthalpy with the steepest descent numerical technique. The nonequilibrium properties have been calculated using the method of Devoto, modified by Bonnefoi and Aubreton. The ratio =T_e/T_h was varied between 1 and 2 as well as the ratio _v =T _v /T _h for a nitrogen plasma. At equilibrium the corresponding equilibrium transport properties of Ar and N ₂ are in good agreement with those of Devoto and Murphy except for T>10,000 K where we used a different interaction potential for N–N ⁺ . The effects of _v and _e on thermodynamic and transport properties of N ₂ are then discussed.     

A new approach to the exact and approximate anharmonic vibrational partition function of diatomic and polyatomic molecules utilizing Morse and Rosen–Morse oscillators

Exact closed forms of the equilibrium partition functions in terms Jacobi elliptic functions are derived for a particle in a box and Rosen–Morse (Poschl–Teller) oscillator (perfect for modeling bending vibrational modes). An exact form of the equilibrium partition function of Morse oscillator is reported. Three other approximate forms of Morse partition function are presented. Having an exact closed‐form for the vibrational partition function can be very helpful in evaluating thermodynamic state functions, e.g., entropy, internal energy, enthalpy, and heat capacity. Moreover, the herein presented closed forms of the vibrational partition function can be used for obtaining spectroscopic and dynamical information through evaluating the two‐ and four‐point dipole moment time correlation functions in anharmonic media. Finally, a closed exact form of the rotational partition function of a particle on a ring in terms of the first kind of complete elliptic integral is derived. © 2010 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Preparative separation of major xanthones from mangosteen pericarp using high‐performance centrifugal partition chromatography

Mangosteen fruit pericarp (MFP) is a rich source of xanthones, which has shown remarkable pharmacological activities. To isolate xanthones, previous methods included labor intensive and time‐consuming solid‐phase extractions (Sephadex LH20, silica gel) and sequential solvent extraction. In this study, major xanthones (α‐ and γ‐mangostins) in MFP were isolated at high purity in one step utilizing high‐performance centrifugal partition chromatography with solvent system composed of petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, methanol and water (10:5:5:1). In one run, 200 mg crude extract of MFP was injected and 55.4 mg α‐mangostin and 12.4 mg γ‐mangostin were obtained with the purity of 93.6 and 98.4%, respectively. The yields of them were 86.3 and 76.3%, respectively. As α‐ and γ‐mangostins are reported to show potent antioxidant, anti‐inflammatory and anticancer activities, this method can be used for the large‐scale production of them for future in vitro and in vivo biological studies.
