Solubility of Ketoconazole in Polyethylene Glycol 200 + Water Mixtures at 298.2–318.2 K

The solubility of ketoconazole in binary mixtures of polyethylene glycol 200 (PEG 200) + water is reported at temperatures ranging from 298.2 to 318.2 K. The Jouyban–Acree model and its combined version including the van’t Hoff equation were used for correlating the reported data; the obtained mean relative deviations are 9.5 and 9.9 %, respectively. Also, two previously trained versions of the Jouyban–Acree model were used for predicting the reported data points in which the prediction errors were 34.6 and 31.0 %.     

Keplerate巨型纳米多孔聚氧钼酸盐作为可重复使用催化剂用于合成1,2,4,5-四取代咪唑(英文)

The Keplerate‐type giant nanoporous isopolyoxomolybdate (NH4)42[MoVI72MoV60O372‐(CH3COO)30(H2O)72], denoted {Mo132}, has been used as a catalyst for the synthesis of1,2,4,5‐tetrasubstituted imidazoles by the one‐pot, four‐component thermal reaction of benzil with aromatic aldehydes, primary amines, and ammonium acetate under solvent‐free conditions. The catalyst was prepared according to a previously published literature procedure using inexpensive and readily available starting materials, and subsequently characterized by FT‐IR, UV and X‐ray diffraction spectroscopy, as well as microanalysis. The results showed that {Mo132} exhibited high catalytic activity towards the synthesis of 1,2,4,5‐tetrasubstituted imidazoles, with the desired products being formed in good to high yields. Furthermore, the catalyst was recyclable and could be reused at least three times without any discernible loss in its catalytic activity. Overall, this new catalytic method for the synthesis of 1,2,4,5‐tetrasubstituted imidazoles provides rapid access to the desired compounds following a simple work‐up procedure, and avoids the use of harmful organic solvents. This method therefore represents a significant improvement over the methods currently available for the synthesis of tetrasubstituted imidazoles.     

Study of some volumetric and refractive properties of {PEG 300 (1) + ethanol (2)} mixtures at several temperatures

Molar volumes and excess molar volumes were investigated from measured density values for {PEG 300 (1) + ethanol (2)} binary mixtures at temperatures from 278.15 to 313.15 K. Both systems exhibit negative excess volumes probably due to increased interactions like hydrogen bonding and/or large differences in molar volumes of the components. Volume thermal expansion coefficients were also calculated for both binary mixtures and pure solvents. Refractive indices were also determined for all these non-aqueous mixtures and neat solvents at all temperatures. Furthermore, the Jouyban–Acree model was used for density, molar volume and refractive index correlations of the studied mixtures at different temperatures. The mean relative deviations between experimental and back-calculated density, molar volume and refractive index data were 0.07%, 0.99% and 0.01%, respectively.     

A Novel Proton Transfer Compound Containing 2, 6‐Pyridinedicarboxylic Acid and Creatinine and its Zinc(II) Complex — Synthesis,Characterization, Crystal Structure,and Solution Studies

The 1:1 proton transfer compound LH₂, (creatH)⁺ (pydcH)^?, has been prepared from the reaction of creatinine, creat, and dipicolinic acid, pydcH₂, (2, 6‐ pyridinedicarboxylic acid) and characterized using IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy. The first coordination complex (creatH)[Zn(pydc)(pydcH)]·4H₂O, was prepared using LH₂ and zinc(II) nitrate, and characterized using IR, ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X‐ray crystallography. The crystal system is triclinic with space group with two molecules per unit cell. The unit cell dimensions are a = 8.085(2) Å, b = 10.802(4) Å, c = 13.632(4) Å, α = 104.98(2)°, β = 90.31(2)° and γ = 92.55(3)°. The structure has been refined to a final value for the crystallographic R factor of 0.0381 based on 3003 reflections. The zinc atom is six‐coordinated with a distorted octahedral geometry. The (pydc)^2? and (pydcH)^? units are almost perpendicular to each other. Extensive hydrogen bondings between carboxylate groups, (creatH)⁺ and water molecules throughout the zinc(II) complex as well as π–π stacking and ion pairing play important roles in stabilizing the corresponding lattices. The protonation constants of the building blocks of the pydcH₂‐creat adduct, the equilibrium constants for the reaction of (pydc)^2? with creat and the stoichiometry and stability of the Zn^II complex with LH₂ in aqueous solution were accomplished by potentiometric pH titration. The solution studies support a self‐associated (creatH)⁺(pydcH)^? as the most abundant species at pH = 3.4. The stoichiometry of the crystalline complex (i.e. (creatH) [Zn(pydc)(pydcH)])and that of the most abundant species detected in solution were found the same.     

Crystal Structures and Solution Studies of Two Novel Zinc(II) Complexes of a Proton Transfer Compound Obtained from 2, 6‐Pyridinedicarboxylic Acid and 1, 10‐Phenanthroline: Observation of Strong Intermolecular Hydrogen Bonds

The proton transfer compound LH₂ , (phenH⁺)₂(pydc^2—), has been prepared from 1, 10‐phenanthroline, phen, and 2, 6‐pyridinedicarboxylic acid, (dipicolinic acid), pydcH₂. Characterization was performed using solution and solid phase CP/MAS ¹³C NMR and IR spectroscopy. The reactions of this adduct with ZnSO₄·7H₂O and Zn(NO₃)₂·4H₂O give the complexes, [Zn(pydc)₂][Zn(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]·7H₂O (1) and [Zn(phen)₃]₄(H(Hpydc)₂)(NO₃)₇·26H₂O (2) , respectively. These complexes were characterized by ¹H and ¹³C NMR spectroscopy and single crystal X‐ray analysis. The complexes crystallize in the triclinic space group P1 with Z = 2. The unit cell dimensions for complex 1 and 2 are: a = 9.9838(9) Å, b = 14.7483(13) Å, c = 14.8365(13) Å and a = 12.640(4) Å, b = 15.855(5) Å, c = 21.830(7) Å, respectively. In complex 1 (pydc^2—) and phen, are tri‐ and bidentate ligands, respectively, and an anionic [Zn(pydc)₂]^2— and cationic [Zn(phen)₂(H₂O)₂]²⁺ complex are formed simultaneously. In complex 2 , three phen participate in complexation leaving hydrogen‐bis(pyridine‐2‐carboxylate), (H(Hpydc)₂)^— as a supramolecular anion. The fragments (H(Hpydc)₂)^—, 7 NO₃^—, and 26 H₂O in complex 2 are joined together by extensive and strong H‐bonding; therefore, the structure is composed of [Zn(phen)₃]₄⁸⁺, and an anionic hydrogen bond supramolecular assembly with the formula, {(H(Hpydc)₂(NO₃)₇)^8— · 26H₂O}_n. The anionic species (H(Hpydc)₂)^— has a special position at the inversion center, as well as one of the NO₃^— anions, which is disordered over the inversion center. Most of the hydrogen bonds in complex 2 represent strong H‐bonding. The protonation constants of the building blocks of the pydc‐phen adduct, the equilibrium constants for the reaction of (pydc^2—) with phenanthroline and the stoichiometry and stability of the Zn^II complex with LH₂ on aqueous solution were determined by potentiometric pH titration. The solution study results support self‐association between (pydc^2—) and (phenH⁺) with a stoichiometry for the Zn(II) complex similar to that observed for the isolated crystalline complex.

An efficient, environmentally friendly procedure for the synthesis of amidoalkyl naphthols through the one‐pot, three‐component reaction of β‐naphthol, aryl aldehydes, and acetamide in the presence of a carbon‐based solid acid under thermal solvent‐free conditions is described. The beneficial fea-tures of this new synthetic approach include short reaction time, high yields, clean reaction profiles, and a simple work‐up procedure. Furthermore, the catalyst can be readily recycled and reused four times without obvious significant loss of activity. The structure of the catalyst was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, N2 adsorption/desorption analysis, and X‐ray diffraction.     

Nickel-aluminum layered double hydroxide as a nano-sorbent for the solid phase extraction of selenium, and its determination by continuous flow HG-AAS

We have used a nano-structured nickel-aluminum layered double hydroxide (Ni-Al LDH) for the extraction of trace levels of selenium prior to its determination by continuous-flow hydride generation atomic absorption spectrometry. Extraction is based on the adsorption of Se(IV) anions on the Ni-Al-nitrate LDH, and/or their exchange with the nitrate anions in the LDH interlayer. The effects of pH value, amount of nanosorbent, eluent type and concentration, sample volume and flow rate were optimized. No appreciable matrix effects were observed. Under optimum conditions, the limit of detection (defined as three times the standard deviation of the blank signal divided by the slope of the calibration plot) is 10 pg?mL^?1, and the relative standard deviation is 2.8 %. The sorption capacity and preconcentration factor are 10 mg?g^?1 and 33, respectively. The method was successfully applied to the determination of Se(IV) in tap water, river water, well water, wastewater and oyster tissue (certified reference material, CRM 1566b).

Calculation of the electrophoretic mobility of amines in methanol-aqueous electrolyte systems.

An equation for calculating the electrophoretic mobility of an analyte with respect to the concentration of organic modifier in mixed aqueous-organic modifier running buffer was derived from mixture response surface methodology. In order to assess the accuracy and predictability of the proposed model, the electrophoretic mobilities of four aliphatic amines and imidazole (background absorber) were measured in mixed water-methanol running buffer containing 0-100% v/v methanol by capillary zone electrophoresis with indirect UV detection. The accuracy of the proposed model was examined by fitting all the experimental data points. The predictability of the model was then evaluated by employing six training data points to compute the model constants, and the mobility at the other data points was predicted by the trained model. The proposed model gave accurate results for the correlation and prediction, with mean percentage errors for the amines studied of 0.6% to 0.5% and 1.5% to 1.1%, respectively.     

An Eu(III) sensor based on N,N-diethyl-N-(4-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)guanidine.

A highly selective poly(vinyl chloride)-based membrane sensor produced by using N,N-diethyl-N-(4-hydroxy-6-methylpyridin-2-yl)guanidine (GD) as active material is described. The electrode displays Nernstian behavior over the concentration range 7.0 x 10(-5) - 1.0 x 10(-1) M. The detection limit of the electrode is 5.0 x 10(-5) M. The best performance was obtained with the membrane containing 30% PVC, 55% benzyl acetate, 5% GD and 10% oleic acid. The response of the sensor is pH-independent in the range of 3.0 - 7.0. The sensor possesses satisfactory reproducibility, fast response time (< 20 s), and specially excellent discriminating ability for Eu(III) ion with respect to the alkali, alkaline earth, transition and heavy metal ions. The membrane sensor was used as an indicator electrode in potentiometric titration of Eu(III) ion with EDTA. It was also applied in determination of fluoride ions in mouth wash preparations.
