Some polyhydroxy azo–azomethine derivatives of salicylaldehyde: Synthesis, characterization, spectroscopic, molecular structure and antimicrobial activity studies

Some new substituted polyhydroxy azo–azomethine compounds were prepared by reaction of tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane with (E)-2-hydroxy-5-(phenyldiazenyl) benzaldehyde and its substituted derivatives. The structures of azo and azo–azomethine compounds were determined by IR, UV–vis, ¹H NMR and ¹³C NMR spectroscopic techniques, and/or X-ray diffraction studies. According to IR spectra, all azo–azomethine compounds adopt keto form in solid state. UV–vis analysis has shown the presence of keto–enol tautomerism in solution for all azo–azomethine compounds, except that for nitro substituted derivative, enol form is dominantly favored in solution. At the same time, above mentioned derivative compounds were studied in vitro for their antimicrobial properties. Among the phenylazosalicylaldehyde series compound tested, 4-phenylazosalicylaldehyde, 4-(3-chlorophenylazo)salicylaldehyde, 4-(2-chlorophenylazo)salicylaldehyde, 4-(4-fluorophenylazo)salicylaldehyde, 4-(3-chlorophenylazo)salicylaldehyde and 4-(4-ethylphenylazo)salicylaldehyde showed a weak antimicrobial activity only against gram positive bacteria. On the contrary, phenylazosalicylaldehyde series compounds were reacted tris(hydroxmethyl)aminomethane, that exhibited a strong antimicrobial activity against gram positive bacteria, yeast and mould. Moreover, while the 2-{[1,3-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)propan-2-ylimino]methyl}phenol did not show an inhibition on tested microorganism, the addition of phenyldiazine groups to 2-{[1,3-dihydroxy-2-(hydroxymethyl)propan-2-ylimino]methyl}phenol resulted in a strong increases in antimicrobial activity.     

Synthesis,spectral properties,and antimicrobial activity of 2-arilamino-2,4,4,6,6-pentachloro-1,3,5,2λ<Superscript>5</Superscript>,4λ<Superscript>5</Superscript>,6λ<Superscript>5</Superscript>-triazatriphosphines and poly[bis(4-fluorophenylamino)phosphazene]

2-(4-Chloro and 4-fluorophenylamino)-2,4,4,6,6-pentachloro-1,3,5,2λ⁵,4λ⁵,6λ⁵-triazatriphosphinines and poly[bis(4-fluorophenylamino)phosphazene] were synthesized by reactions of 4-fluoroaniline and 4-chloroaniline with 2,2,4,4,6,6-hexachloro-1,3,5,2λ⁵,4λ⁵,6λ⁵-triazatriphosphinin and poly(dichlorophosphazene), respectively, in tetrahydrofuran under argon at ?20°C, followed by heating under reflux. The products were isolated by column chromatography and were characterized by FTIR, NMR (¹H, ¹³C, ³¹P), and mass spectra, termogravimetry, and high-performance liquid chromatography. Antimicrobial activity of the monomeric compounds and polymer against 9 bacteria and 5 yeast cultures was evaluated by the disk diffusion method in dimethyl sulfoxide relative to a number of commercial antibiotics and antifungal agents. Aminophosphazene derivatives exhibited a broad spectrum of activity against both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacterial with a magnitude comparable to reference antimicrobial agents. The polymeric product turned out to be more potent than the monomeric compounds.     

Thermal analysis of pharmaceutical compounds

Some sulphonamides are evaluated by means of thermal analysis. Use is made of their characteristic endothermic DTA peaks (melting peaks), where the area changes linearly with variations in the amount of sulphonamides. The method is suitable for the determination of 30–100 mg of sulphathiazole, sulphisomidine, sulphaguanidine, sulphacetamide sodium and sulphamethoxypyridazine with reasonable accuracy. As for sulphisoxazole, two peaks are used for its determination: an endothermic one to determine 30–100 mg, and an exothermic one to determine 6–30 mg.

Two‐Dimensional Holo‐ and Hemidirected Lead(II) Coordination Polymers: Synthetic,Spectroscopic, Thermal,and Structural Studies of [Pb(μ‐SCN)2(μ‐ebp)1.5]n and {[Pb(μ‐OAc)(μ‐ebp)](ClO4)}n (ebp=4,4′‐[(1E)‐Ethane‐1,2‐diyl]bis[pyridine]; OAc=Acetato)

Two new coordination polymers of Pb^II complexes with bridging 4,4′‐[(1E)‐ethane‐1,2‐diyl]bis[pyridine] (ebp), thiocyanato, and acetato ligands, [Pb(μ‐SCN)₂(μ‐ebp)_1.5]_n ( 1 ) and {[Pb(μ‐OAc)(μ‐ebp)](ClO₄)}_n ( 2 ), were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FT‐IR, ¹H‐ and ¹³C‐NMR, thermal analysis, and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. In 1 , the Pb²⁺ ions are doubly bridged by both the ebp and the SCN⁻ ligands into a two‐dimensional polymeric network. The seven‐coordinate geometry around the Pb²⁺ ion in 1 is a distorted monocapped trigonal prism, in which the Pb²⁺ ions have a less‐common holodirected geometry. In 2 , the Pb²⁺ ions are bridged by AcO⁻ ligands forming linear chains, which are also further bridged by the neutral ebp ligands into a two‐dimensional polymeric framework. The Pb²⁺ ions have a five‐coordinate geometry with two N‐atoms from two ebp ligands and three O‐atoms of AcO⁻. Although ClO acts as a counter‐ion, it also makes weak interactions with the Pb²⁺ center. The arrangement of the ligands in 2 exhibits hemidirected geometry, and the coordination gap around the Pb²⁺ ion is possibly occupied by a configurationally active lone pair of electrons.     

Sodium p‐nitro­benzoxasulfamate monohydrate

The title compound, alternatively named sodium 6‐nitro‐3H‐1,2,3‐benzoxa­thia­zole 2,2‐dioxide monohydrate, Na⁺·C₆H₃­N₂O₅S^?·H₂O, consists of chains of NaO₇ units, with the seven donor‐O atoms coming from two water mol­ecules and five p‐­nitro­benzoxasulfamate anions. The seven‐coordinate geometry around the Na⁺ ion is described as monocapped trigonal prismatic, but with a large distortion from ideal geometry. Each triangular face is defined by one O atom each from a water mol­ecule, a nitro group and a sulfonyl group. An O atom from a sulfonyl group caps one of the square faces of the trigonal prism in an unsymmetrical fashion. The water mol­ecules and one sulfonyl O atom are involved in bridging adjacent units, as is the nitro group of the anion. The sulfamate ions adopt an antiparallel alignment between the NaO₇ units and are connected to each other by C—H?O and π–π interactions. The three‐dimensional crystal structure is stabilized by a network of strong O—H?N hydrogen bonds.     

The Adsorption of Polyvinylpyrrolidone on Kaolinite Saturated with Sodium Chloride

The adsorption of two different molecular weights of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) (M(w)=44,000 and M(w)=360,000 g mol(-1)) from water on kaolinite saturated with sodium chloride has been studied. The adsorption of PVP increases slowly as temperature increases. The adsorption of PVP on the kaolinite was studied by considering Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, X-ray diffraction patterns, and dielectric constants. During the adsorption process, PVP interacts with saturating sodium cations and possibly forces some of them onto the edges of the kaolinite; thus, the dielectric constant of saturated kaolinite is reduced after PVP adsorption.

Adsorption of N-Nitrosodiethylamine and N-Nitrosodimethylamine on Activated Carbon: A Pre-Concentration Procedure for Gas Chromatographic Analysis

In this study, a rapid pre-concentration procedure, which employs powdered activated carbon as a clean-up and pre-concentration material, is described for the gas chromatographic analysis of N-nitrosodiethylamine (NDEA) and N-nitrosodimethylamine (NDMA) in aqueous solutions. It was found that powdered activated carbon is suitable for the adsorption of volatile N-nitrosamine compounds from aqueous solutions. Adsorption efficiency with spiked beer samples (alcohol content 5% v/v) was found to be 80.5% (NDMA) and 89.4% (NDEA) and recovery of extraction from activated carbon was calculated as 82.1% (NDMA) and 89.7% (NDEA), respectively. The effect of 100µgmL^–1 of tannic acid on the adsorption was also studied, and no significant effect on the adsorption and extraction of volatile N-nitrosamine compounds was found.     

Synthesis, molecular and crystal structure of bis(triethanolamine)manganese(II) saccharinate: a seven-coordinate manganese complex with tri- and tetradentate triethanolamine ligands

The synthesis, molecular and crystal structure of bis(triethanolamine)Mn(II) saccharinate, [Mn(tea)₂](sac)₂ are reported. The configuration of the tea ligands results in an unusual example of coordination number seven for the Mn(II) ion. The two triethanolamine (tea) ligands coordinate to the Mn(II) ion forming a monocapped trigonal prism geometry, in which one of the tea ligands behaves as a tridentate ligand, while the other one acts as a tetradentate donor. The free and coordinated hydroxyl hydrogens of the tea ligands are involved in hydrogen bonding with the amine nitrogen, carbonyl and sulfonyl oxygens of the neighbouring sac ions to form a three-dimensional infinite network. A weak π–π interaction between the phenyl rings of the sac ions also occurs.
