Among photo-switchable compounds, spiropyrans have attracted significant attention owing to their multi-responsiveness towards a change in the pH, solvent polarity, and temperature, along with light. Upon exposure to the external stimulants, the merocyanine form is obtained due to bond cleavage between spiro carbon and oxygen, which transforms the optically active spiropyrans into an achiral form. The back conversion of the resulting achiral merocyanine form to the spiropyrans brings about a racemic mixture. In this study, D and L enantiomers of alanine and phenylalanine derivatives were incorporated onto a spiropyran bearing hydroxyl group to obtain optically active spiropyrans. Photochemical and photophysical properties of these compounds were studied in methanol, isopropanol, dichloromethane, and hexane. The effect of the benzyl and methyl units on the ring closure rate of the merocyanines was also investigated. For this purpose, ring closure kinetics of different merocyanines containing hydroxyl group, D-alanine, and D-phenylalanine derivatives were compared. The results reveal that the ring closure rate of the merocyanine with benzyl group attached is faster than the rate of the structures with methyl or hydroxyl groups.

Synthesis of azobenzene containing macrocycles
Hoşgör, Ege; Akdağ, Akın; Department of Chemistry (2021-2-10)
Aromatic azo compounds are one of the well-known research topics of recent times due to their photoisomeric properties under ultraviolet or visible light. Generally, these substances undergo isomerization from the thermodynamically more stable trans isomer to the cis isomer when irradiated with appropriate light radiation. The incorporation of azo groups to the macrocycle skeleton is an important part of the supramolecular chemistry. Azobenzene photoisomerization is the key mechanism of molecular motors tha...
Organocatalytic resolution of racemic alpha azido ketones
Canbolat, Eylem; Demir, Ayhan Sıtkı; Department of Chemistry (2012)
Chiral cyclic alpha azido ketones are very important compounds in organic chemistry. Because, the reduced forms of them are amino alcohols and these amino alcohols are interesting compounds for their biological activities. They have some pharmaceutical activities such as: potassium channel open up properties, treatment of central nervous system, antihypertensive properties, the agent of dopamin receptor activator, hypolipemic agent and dopamine agonist. These types of compounds have highly acidic alpha-prot...
Kinetic analyses of the effects of temperature and light intensity on growth, hydrogenm production and organic acid utilization by rhodobacter capsulatus
Sevinç, Pelin; Gündüz, Ufuk; Department of Biotechnology (2010)
Effects of temperature and light intensity on photofermentative hydrogen production by Rhodobacter capsulatus DSM1710 by use of acetic and lactic acids as substrates were studied. Experiments were conducted at 20, 30 and 38oC incubator temperatures under light intensities in the 1500 – 7000 lux range. pH of the medium and quantity of hydrogen forming together with quantity of biomass, and concentrations of acetic, lactic, formic, butyric and propionic acids in the medium were determined periodically. Growth...
Distyryl-boradiazaindacenes: facile synthesis of novel near IR emitting fluorophores
Dost, Zeynep; Atilgan, Serdar; Akkaya, Engin U. (Elsevier BV, 2006-09-04)
Boradiazaindacenes with methyl substituents at 3 and 5 positions were for the first time shown to undergo efficient double condensation reactions with an aromatic aldehyde yielding a series of extended conjugation dyes. These new fluorophores have absorption maxima in the range of 650-660 nm. The dyes reported here have large quantum yields with 20 nm Stokes' shifted emission peaks. The straightforward synthesis of such red shifted BODIPY derivatives is important in relation to the synthesis of novel and us...
Valence-shell electron energy-loss spectra of formic acid and acetic acid
Ari, T; Guven, MH (2000-01-01)
Gas phase optical absorption spectra of formic acid and acetic acid in the energy ranges 5.0-11.3 and 4.4-11.3 eV, respectively, have been previously recorded. It is generally agreed that of the four successive bands observed in the spectra of these compounds, the first corresponds to n --> pi* transition. However, various assignments have been proposed for the following three bands. In the present study, electron energy-loss spectra of formic acid and acetic acid vapours at 70 eV impact energy and 0 degree...
