  • Fluorescent Aminal Linked Porous Organic Polymer for Reversible Iodine Capture and Sensing Muhammad A
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Fluorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer for reversible iodine capture and sensing Muhammad A. Sabri1, Mohammad H. Al‑Sayah2, Susan Sen2, Taleb H. Ibrahim1 & Oussama M. El‑Kadri2* A novel triazene-anthracene-based fuorescent aminal linked porous organic polymer (TALPOP) was prepared via metal free-Schif base polycondensation reaction of 9,10-bis-(4,6-diamino-S‑triazin‑ 2-yl)anthracene and 2-furaldehyde. The polymer has exceptional chemical and thermal stabilities and exhibit good porosity with Brunauer–Emmett–Teller surface area of 401 m2g−1. The combination of such porosity along with the highly conjugated heteroatom-rich framework enabled the polymer to exhibit exceptional iodine vapor uptake of up to 314 wt % and reversible iodine adsorption in solution. Because of the inclusion of the anthracene moieties, the TALPOP exhibited excellent 3 −1 detection sensitivity towards iodine via forescence quenching with Ksv value of 2.9 × 10 L mol . The cost efective TALPOP along with its high uptake and sensing of iodine, make it an ideal material for environmental remediation. Nuclear energy is becoming one of the most feasible alternative sources to meet the ever-increasing energy demand and minimize the emission of greenhouse gases because of its high-density energy, minimal carbon footprints, and low operation cost1–4. Despite such advantages, the potential emissions of radioactive material 129 131 3 14 85 (such as I and I, H, CO2, and Kr) from nuclear energy power plants is a major drawback of this tech- nology due to the serious environmental and health efect of these materials4,5.

PeerJ Organic Chemistry 2:e4 https://doi.org/10.7717/peerj-ochem.4 New insights into the mechanism of Schiff base synthesis from aromatic amines in the absence of acid catalyst or polar solvents Pedro J Silva Corresp. 1 1 FP-ENAS/Fac. de Ciências da Saúde, Universidade Fernando Pessoa, Porto, Portugal Corresponding Author: Pedro J Silva Email address: [email protected] Extensive computational studies of the imine synthesis from amines and aldehydes in water have shown that the large-scale structure of water is needed to afford appropriate charge delocalisation and enable sufficient transition state stabilisation. These insights cannot, however, be applied to the understanding of the reaction pathway in apolar solvents due their inability to form extensive hidrogen-bonding networks. In this work, we perform the first computational studies of this reaction in apolar conditions. This density- functional study of the reaction of benzaldehyde with four closely related aromatic amines (aniline, o-toluidine, m-toluidine and p-toluidine) shows that an additional molecule of amine may provide enough stabilization of the first transition state even in the absence of a hydrogen bonding network. Our computations also show that the second reaction step cannot take place unless an extra proton is added to the system but, crucially, that reaction rate is so high that even picomolar amounts of protonated base are enough to achieve realistic rates.

Martinsa and Pál Perjési*,b aInstituto de Química, Universidade Federal de Goiás, 74690-900 Goiânia-GO, Brazil bInstitute of Pharmaceutical Chemistry and cDepartment of Forensic Medicine, University of Pécs, H-7624 Pécs, Hungary 4’-Hydroxychalcones have been reported to possess several beneficial biological effects. Several lines of evidence accumulated to demonstrate increased biological activities of the Mannich base derivatives of the parent 4’-hydroxychalcones. Bioactivities of chalcones and related α,β-unsaturated ketones are frequently associated with their reactivity with cellular thiols, such as GSH. For comparison of GSH reactivity, two bis Mannich bases of two 4’-hydroxychalcones were synthesized and reacted with GSH under non-cellular conditions. Reversed-phase thin layer chromatography (RP-TLC) and reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography (RP-HPLC) analysis showed formation of two polar products which structures were confirmed by RP-HPLC-ESI-MS (RP-HPLC-electrospray ionization mass spectrometry) as 1:1 chalcone-GSH adducts in each case. At pH values below 8.0, the two bis Mannich bases showed higher GSH reactivity than two 4’-hydroxychalcones. Influence of the nature of the amino groups, the ring-B substituents and pH of the medium on reactivity was also investigated.

    SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYMERIC SCHIFF BASES FROM 2,5-DIFORMYLFURAN A Thesis Present to The Graduate Faculty of The University of Akron In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Tengfei Xiang December, 2012 SYNTHESIS AND CHARACTERIZATION OF POLYMERIC SCHIFF BASES FROM 2,5-DIFORMYLFURAN Tengfei Xiang Thesis Approved: Accepted: Advisor Dean of the College Dr. Yi Pang Dr. Chand Midha Co-Advisor Dean of the Graduate School Dr. Ping Yi Dr. George R. Newkome Department Chair Date Dr. Kim C. Calvo ii ABSTRACT Furan derivatives have the potential to be an alternative resource since it can be obtained from biomass in large scale. Many monomers derived from furfural and 5-hydroxymethylfurfural (HMF), have been used in polymerization investigation in recent years. However, few studies in using 2,5-diformylfuran(DFF) as monomer has been reported, probably due to the limited availability of monmer. Polymeric Schiff bases (or polyimines) is a class of materials containing –CH=N structural unit, which exhibit good thermal stability, useful mechanical properties. In this work, the polymeric Schiff bases obtained from polycondensation of DFF and aromatic, aliphatic diamines, and more comprehensive characterization study has been carried out. FT-IR and 13C Solid NMR study of products confirmed the formation of – CH=N structural unit. And MALDI-TOF mass spectrum showed a typical polymer pattern, providing further understanding on the polymerization process. Thermal Analysis had also been carried out for both alphatic and aromatic polymeric Schiff Bases. iii DEDICATION I would like to dedicate this thesis to my mother, Yumei Jiang, for her love, patience and understanding.

  • New Insights Into the Mechanism of Schiff Base Synthesis from Aromatic Amines in the Absence of Acid Catalyst Or Polar Solvents
    New insights into the mechanism of Schiff base synthesis from aromatic amines in the absence of acid catalyst or polar solvents Pedro J. Silva1,2 1 FP-ENAS/Fac. de Ciências da Saúde, Universidade Fernando Pessoa, Porto, Portugal 2 UCIBIO@REQUIMTE, BioSIM, Departamento de Biomedicina, Faculdade de Medicina, Universidade do Porto, Porto, Portugal ABSTRACT Extensive computational studies of the imine synthesis from amines and aldehydes in water have shown that the large-scale structure of water is needed to afford appropriate charge delocalization and enable sufficient transition state stabilization. These insights cannot, however, be applied to the understanding of the reaction pathway in apolar solvents due their inability to form extensive hydrogen-bonding networks. In this work, we perform the first computational studies of this reaction in nonpolar conditions. This density-functional study of the reaction of benzaldehyde with four closely related aromatic amines (aniline, o-toluidine, m-toluidine and p-toluidine) shows that, although an additional molecule of amine may provide some stabilization of the first transition state even in the absence of a hydrogen bonding network, this is insufficient to achieve high reaction rates. Our computations also show that when an extra proton is added to the spectator amine, the activation energies become so low that even picomolar amounts of protonated base are enough to achieve realistic rates. Additional computations show that those minute amounts of protonated base may be obtained under reaction conditions without the addition of extraneous acid through the auto-protolysis of the amines themselves. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a role for the auto-protolysis of anilines in their extensive reactional repertoire.

  • Mannich Reaction
    1. Introduction 1.1- Mannich Reaction The Mannich reaction is three component condensation in which a compound containing an active hydrogen atom is allowed to react with formaldehyde and an NH-amine derivative . Secondary amines rather than primary amines and ammonia are employed , the resulting product (Mannich Base ) is an amine compound having the N atom linked to the R substrate through a methylene group 1,2. The aminoalkylation of CH-acidic compounds was described by several authors as early as the 19th. century. However, it was Carl Mannich who was the first to recognize the enormous significance of this reaction , and it was he who extended the chemistry into a broad based synthetic methodology through systematic research. Since then this reaction that now carries his name has developed into one of the most important C-C bond-forming reactions in organic chemistry3,4. The Mannich reaction is a classical method for the preparation of β -aminoketones and aldehydes (Mannich bases) and, as such, is one of the most important basic reaction types in organic chemistry. It is the key step in the synthesis of numerous pharmaceuticals and natural products3,4. 1 The Mannich reaction can be presented by the following equation: The essential feature of the reaction is the replacement of the active hydrogen atom by an aminomethyl or substituted aminomethyl group. The symbolizes the active hydrogen component which includes ketones, aldehydes, acids, esters, phenols, acetylenes, picolines, nitroalkanes and quinolines1,2. 1.2- Mechanism of the Mannich reaction The mechanism of the Mannich reaction has been well investigated, the condensation reaction occurs in two steps: first, the amine reacts with formaldehyde to give condensation product (5 ), (6), ( 7) (step I) which then attacks the substrate R-H (step II) .The reaction does not normally follow the other possible route (step III and IV) ; however, some successful reaction between hydroxymethyl derivatives (8) and alkylamines to give Mannich bases (9) should be mentioned .

  • The Preparation and Use of Metal Salen Complexes Derived from Cyclobutane Diamine
    THE PREPARATION AND USE OF METAL SALEN COMPLEXES DERIVED FROM CYCLOBUTANE DIAMINE by SMITA S. PATIL B. Tech., University of Mumbai, 2005 M. Tech., University of Mumbai, 2007 AN ABSTRACT OF A DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY Department of Chemistry College of Arts and Sciences KANSAS STATE UNIVERSITY Manhattan, Kansas 2014 Abstract The helix is an important chiral motif in nature, there is increasing development in field of helical transition metal complexes and related supramolecular structures. Hence, the goals of this work are to apply the principles of helicity in order to produce metal complexes with predictable molecular shapes and to study their properties as asymmetric catalysts. Computational studies suggest that the (1R,2R)-cyclobutyldiamine unit can produce highly twisted salen complexes with a large energy barrier between the M and P helical forms. To test this prediction, the tartrate salt of (1R,2R)-cyclobutyldiamine was synthesized and condensed with a series of saliclaldehydes to produce novel salen ligands. The salicylaldehydes chosen have extended phenanthryl or benz[a]anthryl sidearms to encourage formation of helical coordination complexes. These ligands were metallated with zinc, iron and manganese salts to produce salen metal complexes which were characterized by NMR analysis, high-resolution mass spectrometry, and IR spectroscopy. A second ligand type, neutral bis(pyridine-imine) has also been synthesized from (1R,2R)-cyclobutyldiamine and quinolylaldehydes. The synthesis of bis(pyridine-imine) ligands was conducted using greener method, solvent assisted grinding. These ligands, in-situ with nickel metal salts, showed good catalytic activity for asymmetric Diels-Alder reactions.

Received: 17 October 2019; Accepted: 5 December 2019; Published: 9 December 2019 Abstract: Many enzymes require pyridoxal 5’-phosphate (PLP) as an essential cofactor and share active site residues in mediating diverse enzymatic reactions. Methionine can be converted into cysteine by cystathionine γ-lyases (CGLs) through a transsulfuration reaction dependent on PLP. In bacteria, MccB, also known as YhrB, exhibits CGL activity that cleaves the C–S bond of cystathionine at the γ position. In this study, we determined the crystal structure of MccB from Staphylococcus aureus in its apo- and PLP-bound forms. The structures of MccB exhibited similar molecular arrangements to those of MetC-mediating β-elimination with the same substrate and further illustrated PLP-induced structural changes in MccB. A structural comparison to MetC revealed a longer distance between the N-1 atom of the pyridine ring of PLP and the Oδ atom of the Asp residue, as well as a wider and more flexible active site environment in MccB.
