Spectrophotometric Study of the Complexation of Some Lanthanide (III) Ions with a Series of 18-Crowns-6 in DMSO Solution Using Murexide as a Metallochromic Indicator

The complexation of La(III), Ce(III), Pr(III) and Er(III) with 18-crown-6(18C6), dibenzo-18-crown-6 (DB18C6), dicyclohexano-18-crown-6 (DCY18C6) anddibenzopyridino-18-crown-6 (DBPY18C6) has been studied in dimethylsulfoxide(DMSO) by means of a competitive spectrophotometric method using murexide asa metal ion indicator. The formation constants of the 1 : 1 complexeswere found tovary in the order La(III) > Ce(III) > Pr(III) > Er(III). It was foundthat the structure influences the formation and stability of the resultingcomplexes. The effects ofvarious parameters on complexation are discussed. The order of the stabilityconstants of each lanthanide ion with these macrocycles are18C6 > DC18C6 > DB18C6 > DBPY18C6.     

Synthesis,Characterization, and Crystal Structure of Thallium(I) Complex containing Monodeprotonated 2,6‐Pyridinedicarboxylic Acid

The reaction of an ethanolic solution 2,6‐pyridinedicarboxylic acid ( 1 , LH₂) with TlNO₃ in the presence of triethylamine led to the coordination polymer [Tl(LH)]_n ( 2 ). The complex was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy and single‐crystal X‐ray diffraction. Crystal data for 2 at –80 °C: monoclinic, space group I2/a, a = 696.1(1), b = 1190.6(2), c = 931.0(2) pm, β = 103.28(1)°, Z = 4, R₁ = 0.0256.

Three component reactions：An efficient and green synthesis of 3, 4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones and thiones using silica gel-supported L-pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid-4-hydrogen sulfate

An environmentally benign aqueous protocol for the synthesis of 3,4-dihydropyrimidin-2-(1H)-ones and thiones promoted by a green catalyst,silica gel-supported L-pyrrolidine-2-carboxylic acid-4-hydrogen sulfate,has been developed.The use of nontoxic,thermally stable and inexpensive amino acid catalyst makes the process simple with minimal amount of chemical waste.Compared with classical Biginelli reaction conditions,this new method has the advantages of high yields and simple workup procedures.     

Preparation,characterization and heterogeneous catalytic applications of GO/Fe3O4/HPW nanocomposite in chemoselective and green oxidation of alcohols with aqueous H2O2

Graphene oxide ‐ Fe₃O₄ ‐ NH₃⁺H₂PW₁₂O₄₀ ^‐ magnetic nanocomposite (GO/Fe₃O₄/HPW) was prepared by linking amino ‐ functionalized Fe₃O₄ nanoparticles (Fe₃O₄ ‐ NH₂) on the graphene oxide (GO), and then grafting 12 ‐ tungstophosphoric acid (H₃PW₁₂O₄₀) on the graphene oxide ‐ magnetite hybrid (GO ‐ Fe₃O₄ ‐ NH₂). The obtained GO/Fe₃O₄/HPW nanocomposite was well characterized with different techniques such as FT ‐ IR, TEM, SEM, XRD, EDX, TGA ‐ DTA, AGFM, ICP and BET measurements. The used techniques showed that the graphene oxide layers were well prepared and the various stages of preparation of the GO/Fe₃O₄/HPW nanocomposites successfully completed. This new nanocomposite displayed excellent performance as a heterogeneous catalyst in the oxidation of alcohols with H₂O₂. The as ‐ prepared GO/Fe₃O₄/HPW catalyst was more stable and recyclable at least five times without significantly reducing its catalytic activity.

One‐pot,four‐component synthesis of 1,3,4‐oxadiazole derivatives containing a ferrocene unit and their antimicrobial activity

A four‐component reaction between aromatic carboxylic acids, (N‐isocyanimino)triphenylphosphorane, ferrocenecarbaldehyde and dibenzylamine is reported. This approach is an efficient, simple and high‐yield procedure for the synthesis of 1,3,4‐oxadiazole derivatives containing a ferrocene unit. The antimicrobial activities of the products were investigated against Staphylococcus aureus and Pseudomonas aeruginosa in in vitro and in vivo assays. Copyright © 2015 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
