Effect of tetraethylene glycol side chain conformation on chiroptical properties of chirality-induced benzocoumarin

2022-10-01
Coumarins are multifaceted molecules with compelling fluorescence features. Along with biocompatible properties, they have recently been used in chiroptical studies. The chirality induction to benzo[f]coumarin moiety at the third position was investigated in this study. The chromophore derivatized with homochiral alanine and phenylalanine resulted in identical spectroscopic properties. When the chiroptical properties are concerned, the distinct CD spectra of both structures are also changed significantly by altering the organic solvent. Inter- and intra-molecular hydrogen bonding affects the CD spectra along with the chiroptical signal. The phenylalanine-benzo[f]coumarin structures were modified with TEG units to increase water solubility and enhance ordered aggregations. The chiroptical properties of the compounds were analyzed in organic solvents with spectroscopic techniques. It was found that coumarin is not only sensitive to the chiral unit attached but also that any conformational change on the side chain affects the chiroptical signal. Time-dependent DFT calculations in the gas phase supported these results.

EFFECT OF FEED COMPOSITION ON THE PERFORMANCE OF POLYMER-ZEOLITE MIXED MATRIX GAS SEPARATION MEMBRANES
BATTAL, T; BAC, N; Yılmaz, Levent (Informa UK Limited, 1995-01-01)
An emerging membrane morphology with future potential is mixed matrix membranes composed of two interpenetrating matrices of different materials. In this study, mixed matrix membranes of an amorphous glassy polymer(polyethersulfone) and hydrophilic zeolite (4A) were prepared. An elaborate membrane preparation technique that enables incorporation of high zeolite loading into the membrane was developed. Performance of membranes was tested by using a laboratory-scale gas separation apparatus. The permeation ra...
Effect of silver encapsulation on the local structure of titanosilicate ETS-10
GALIOGLU, Sezin; ZAHMAKIRAN, Mehmet; Kalay, Yunus Eren; Özkar, Saim; Akata, Burcu (2012-09-01)
Silver(0) nanoparticles stabilized by titanosilicate (ETS-10) framework were synthesized by following a simple two step procedure involving the incorporation of silver(I) (Ag+) ions into ETS-10 matrix via ion-exchange with extra framework Na+ and K+ cations followed by their reduction with sodium borohydride (NaBH4) in aqueous medium all at room temperature. Silver(0) nanoparticles dispersed in the ETS-10 matrix were collected as gray powders and characterized by using advanced analytical methods including ...
Effect of heat treatment on the photocatalytic activity of alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles: towards diclofenac elimination
Mimouni, Ibtihal; Bouzıanı, Asmae; Naciri, Yassine; Boujnah, Mourad; El Belghiti, Mohammed Alaoui; El Azzouzi, Mohammed (2021-09-01)
alpha-Fe2O3 nanoparticles were synthesized via a straightforward method. XRD, FTIR, SEM, ESR, and DRS techniques investigated the influence of various calcination temperatures on the crystal structure, optical, and photocatalytic properties of the samples. The obtained results demonstrated that the average crystallite size increased with the increase in the calcination temperature. Measured and computed optical properties were in accordance and the bandgap energy decreased with the increase in the calcinati...
Effect of inhomogeneous broadening on the fluorescence anisotropy of a square-symmetric molecule
Knox, RS; Gulen, D; Lotterhos, KE (2002-07-30)
Inhomogeneous broadening has the potential of introducing a new picosecond-range quasi-relaxation rate in an electronically twofold-degenerate system such as a molecule whose symmetry is square (D-4h). The physics of the process is the mutual cancellation of oscillatory contributions whose periods are determined by the random energy splittings. The effect occurs only for quite specific conditions of excitation and line broadening, and may be useful in the interpretation of existing experiments on magnesium ...
EFFECT OF CENTRIFUGATION ON THE REMOVAL OF EXTRACELLULAR POLYMERS AND PHYSICAL-PROPERTIES OF ACTIVATED-SLUDGE
Sanin, Faika Dilek (1994-01-01)
Activated sludge is a flocculated suspension of living and dead microorganisms enmeshed together in a polymer matrix along with some organic and inorganic materials. Extracellular polymers, main components of which are the polysaccharides, proteins, and nucleic acids, act as a protective barrier to the living microbial community, and give the flee its integrity and rigidity. These polymers have been found to affect the dewatering and settling characteristics of activated sludge. Even though they were studie...
