Voltammetric studies of some azo compounds derived from 4-methyl-6,7-dihydroxy coumarin in microemulsion and aqueous media

The cyclic voltammetric(CV) behavior of some azo compounds based on coumarin derivatives  was investigated in microemulsion systems and in aqueous solutions. The obtained results indicated that these compounds undergo an irreversible 4-electron reduction step leading to cleavage of the N=N center with the formation of amine compounds in all media. The effect of medium on the CV parameters was discussed. The total number of electrons involved in the reduction process was determined by controlled potential coulometry. Also, The effect of substituents on the electrode reaction pathway and the kinetic parameters of the electrode process were calculated and discussed. Based on the data obtained the electroreduction mechanism was suggested and discussed

IR, 1H-NMR, UV-Vis and thermal studies on the Rhodamine 6G charge-transfer complexes

Charge-transfer (CT) complexes formed between Rhodamine 6G (Rh6G) as donor with iodine, CLA and PA as acceptors have been studied spectrophotometrically. The synthesis and characterization of Rhodamine 6G CT-complexes of iodine, [(Rh6G)2]I+.I3ˉ, chloranilic acid (CLA), [(Rh6G)(CLA)] and picric acid (PA) [(Rh6G)(PA)] were described. These complexes are readily prepared from the reaction of Rh6G with I2, CLA and PA with CHCl3 solvent. Mid and far IR, 1H-NMR, UV-Vis techniques, elemental analyses (CHN) and thermal studies, characterize the three new Rhodamine 6G charge-transfer complexes. Modified Benesi-Hildebrand method was applied to the determination of association constant and molar extinction coefficient.KEY WORDS: Rhodamine 6G, Charge transfer complexes, Picric acid, Chloranilic acid, Iodine, Thermal studies Bull.

Biomarkers charge-transfer complexes of melamine with quinol and picric acid: Synthesis, spectroscopic, thermal, kinetic and biological studies

AbstractTwo new melamine (MA) charge transfer complexes with quinol and picric acid in aqua media have been synthesized and structurally characterized. The obtained complexes with the general formula [(MA)(acceptor)2] with a 2:1 acceptor:donor molar ratio. Elemental analysis (CHN), electronic spectra, photometric titration, mid infrared spectra, 1H NMR spectra and thermogravimetric analysis (TG) were used to predict the position of the charge transfer interaction between the donating and accepting sites. The MA CT-complexes were antimicrobial assessment against two kinds of bacterial and fungal species

Preparation, spectroscopic, thermal and molecular docking studies of covid-19 protease on the manganese(II), iron(III), chromium(III) and cobalt(II) creatinine complexes

ABSTRACT. Creatinine biomolecule has three different coordination modes through the (exocyclic O(5) and ring N(1)), (imine N(2) and ring N(1)) or as monodentate ligand via exocyclic O(1)). The FTIR and electronic spectra of the synthesized manganese(II), iron(III), chromium(III), and cobalt(II) complexes consistent with the coordinated behavioral derived from the structural analyses. Thermogravimetric data agree with the stoichiometry and proposed formulas [Mn(C4H7N3O)2(Cl)2]4H2O, [Fe(C4H7N3O)2(Cl)2]Cl.6H2O, [Cr(C4H7N3O)2(Cl)2]Cl.6H2O, and [Co(C4H7N3O)2(Cl)2]6H2O. Four new transition metal complexes derived from the reaction of creatinine chelate and metal salt (MnCl2.4H2O, FeCl3.6H2O, CrCl3.6H2O, and CoCl2.6H2O), were prepared with 1:2 (metal: ligand) stoichiometry, isolated and well characterized by a different spectral and analytical techniques including FTIR, UV/Vis, magnetic susceptibility, molar conductance, elemental analysis, and TGA/DrTGA/DTA. The solid complexes were formed with the binding of the creatinine ligand through exocyclic O(5) and ring N(1) and presented as an octahedral geometry. In addition molecular docking calculations have been performed between complexes of manganese(II), iron(III), chromium(III) and cobalt(II) with creatinine biomolecule ligand with the Covid-19 protease (6LU7) to determine the best binding site and its inhibitory effect.                     KEY WORDS: Creatinine, Coordination, Transition metals, TGA/DTA, Octahedral geometry   Bull.

Synthesis, antibacterial and surface activity of 1,2,4-triazole derivatives

738-746Sodium 1-[4-amino-5-mercapto-4H-(1,2,4)triazol-3-yl]heptadecane-1-sulfonate 2 has been used as a new precursor to synthesize some important biologically active heterocycles. Reaction of 2 with carbon disulphide in pyridine and acid chlorides yields the 1,2,4-triazole derivatives 3, 4a and 4b. Condensation of 2 with appropriate aldehydes gives 5a-c which have been cyclized by treating with thioglycollic acid to yield 6a-c. Reactions of 2 with phthalic anhydride and 4-methylbenzenesulfonyl chloride gives 7 and 8. In addition, the reaction of 2 with chloroacetaldehyde, phenacyl bromide, urea and chloroacetyl chloride yields 9, 10, 11 and 12, respectively. On the other hand, refluxing 2 with phenyl isothiocyanate gives 13 and 14. All these products have antimicrobial activity and they can be used as surface active agents

Optimization of innovative optical sensor for zirconium determination and capturing from environmental samples

A highly sensitive bulk optode membrane, specifically engineered for the identification of zirconyl (ZrO2+) ions, has been successfully created. The membrane is composed of plasticized polyvinyl chloride (PVC), dibenzodylmethane (DBM) acting as the chromoionophore, 2-amino-4-(3-chlorophenylazo)pyridine-3-ol (ACPAP) serving as the ionophore, and sodium tetraphenylborate (NaTPB) included as an ionic additive. The sensing membrane undergoes a color change from orange to blue when exposed to ZrO2+ ions at pH 6.5. The preparation parameters of the sensor and the determination of ZrO2+ ions were meticulously optimized. In addition to showcasing reproducibility, extended stability, and a comparatively long lifespan, the suggested sensor membrane displays remarkable selectivity for ZrO2+ ions, effectively discerning them from a spectrum of alkaline earth, heavy and transition metal ions, and actinides. The sensor delivers a calibration response tailored for ZrO2+ ions across a concentration spectrum spanning 7.5–185 ng mL−1, establishing limits of quantification and detection at 7.3 and 2.2 ng mL−1, respectively. Demonstrating a rapid response within a timeframe of under 5.0 min. The sensor consistently delivered highly reproducible results, as evidenced by relative standard deviation (RSD) of 1.67 % and 1.55 % for Zr4+ concentrations at 100 and 150 ng mL−1.This underscores the precision and reliability of the sensor. Regeneration of the optode can be easily accomplished by employing 0.05 M HCl. Effectively employed across a spectrum of samples, including water, soil, plant materials, and ore solutions, the proposed optical sensor proves to be a valuable instrument for determining ZrO2+ ions in diverse environmental and analytical scenarios
