A simple derivative of a welt-known dye bodipy appears to be a satisfactory sensitizer for singlet oxygen. Moreover, the rate of singlet oxygen generation can be modulated by two cancer-related cellular parameters, sodium ion concentration and acidity. Singlet oxygen generation rate is maximal when sodium ions and an organic acid were added. The operation of this molecular automaton follows AND logic, which introduces an additional layer of selectivity in the photodynamic action of the reagent. It should also be noted that in this system sensing, computing and actuating functions are realized within a single molecule.

Chemistry of bicyclic endoperoxides derived from dihydropyridine derivatives: Attempted synthesis of polyhydroxypiperidine derivatives Salamci, Emine; Bayram, Beyhan; Balcı, Metin (2006-01-01) To achieve the synthesis of azasugar derivatives with the utilization of singlet oxygen, pyridine was used as the starting material. The reduction of pyridine followed by a singlet oxygen reaction afforded cyclic aza-endoperoxides (14 and 16). However, many attempts were made to convert the azaendoperoxides to the corresponding di- and triacetates without success. However, the base-catalyzed rearrangement of 14 gave unprecedented rearrangement products 23 and 24.
Design of functional materials using liquid crystals as molecular templates Karausta, Aslı; Büküşoğlu, Emre; Kalıpçılar, Halil; Department of Chemical Engineering (2018) Liquid crystal (LC) is a phase of material which is intermediate to a crystalline solid and an isotropic liquid such that the molecules flow but retain a degree of long-range orientational ordering. LCs, due to their long range orientational ordering and fluidic properties, can be used in templated synthesis of polymeric materials as well as self assembly of the microparticles incorporated into the LCs. In the first part of this thesis, we sought to provide control over alignment of the polymer chains, alig...
Modulation of internal charge transfer (ICT) in a bay region hydroxylated perylenediimide (PDI) chromophore: a chromogenic chemosensor for pH Yukruk, F; Akkaya, EU (Elsevier BV, 2005-08-29) A novel perylenediimide derivative which has a bay region hydroxyl function behaves as a pH-sensitive dye. The deprotonation of the aryl-OH yields a green solution with a lambda(max) x of 692 nm and this deprotonated form has strong internal charge transfer characteristics. On reprotonation in acidic solutions, the typical PDI absorbance spectrum is restored. The experimentally determined pK(a) (7.45) is very close to physiological pH, therefore the most significant changes in color take place in the vicini...
A Numerical forced convection heat transfer analysis of nanofluids considering performance criteria Kirez, Oğuz; Güvenç Yazıcıoğlu, Almıla; Kakaç, Sadık; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2012) A nanofluid is a new heat transfer fluid produced by mixing a base fluid and solid nano sized particles. This fluid has great potential in heat transfer applications, because of its increased thermal conductivity and even increased Nusselt number due to higher thermal conductivity, Brownian motion of nanoparticles, and other various effects on heat transfer phenomenon. In this work, the first aim is to predict convective heat transfer of nanofluids. A numerical code is created and run to obtain results in a...
A comparative study of spectrophotometric and iodometric back titration methods for hydrogen sulfide determination in anoxic basins Basturk, O; Romanov, A; Gokmen, S; Konovalov, S (2000-01-01) Iodometric Back Titration (TBT) and Spectrophotometric (SPM) methods are two common methods used in the determination of hydrogen sulfide concentrations in anoxic basins, like in the upper sections of the Black Sea anoxic waters. Although the results obtained by both methods are in agreement when the concentrations of sulfide are higher than 30 mu M/l, IBT analysis gives more reproducible results compared to SPM analysis. On the other hand, the reproducibility of the SPM is better than that of IBT method wh...
