Formation equilibria of dioxy vanadium (V) complex with alanine in acidic media (pH<2.3) has been investigated potentiometrically and spectrophotometrically. In this condition the 1:1 complex has the formula VO2Y, where Y¯ represent the fully dissociated aminocarboxylate anion. The stability constant of VO2Y was determined as log KVO2Y=11.32±<e...

ologically important products proceeds efficiently through the action of enzymes without requiring protection of reactive functional groups. However, only a few studies of synthetic reactions using unprotected (free) amino acids have been reported. Most of the synthetic transformations to natural products, pharmaceuticals, and chiral auxiliaries have been performed with protected amino acids to...

A simple and sensitive extraction-spectrophotometric method for rapid and accurate determination of benzocaine in pure and dosage forms was developed. Benzocaine was effectively extracted as a 1:1 ion pair complex with dicyclohexyl-18-crown-6 and calmagite in acidic media into chloroform, followed by spectrophotometric determination at 486 nm. Molar absorptivity of the ternary complex at this w...

Chemical analysis revealed that water samples collected from Wadi El-Natrun Lakes were highly alkaline, of pH ranging from 8.4 –9.5 and of high levels of total soluble salts, chlorides, sodium and potassium. Water collected from El-Zugm Lake showed the highest levels of organic matter, sodium, calcium, magnesium and chlorides among the 8 lakes investigated. On the other hand, some parameters sh...

An efficient and convenient procedure for the hydrogen peroxide oxidation of primary alcohols to the carboxylic acids in aqueous media in regulated temperature-dependant; recyclable phase-separation catalytic system comprised of the PEG1000-based dicationic acidic ionic liquid and toluene under homogeneous conditions in good to excellent yield is reported.

Pt and PtSn catalysts were studied for n-butanol electro-oxidation at various temperatures. PtSn showed a higher activity towards butanol electro-oxidation compared to Pt in acidic media. The onset potential for n-butanol oxidation on PtSn is ∼520 mV lower than that found on Pt, and significantly lower activation energy was found for PtSn compared with that for Pt.

Herein, we report natural chitosan end-capped MCM-41 type MSNPs as novel, dual stimuli, responsive nano-vehicles for controlled anticancer drug delivery. The chitosan nanovalves tightly close the pores of the MSNPs to control premature cargo release under physiological conditions but respond to lysozyme and acidic media to release the trapped cargo.

An efficient diastereoselective approach for the synthesis of functionalized 3,4-dihydro-2H-pyran-4-carboxamides with variable frame was developed based on the reaction of available 4-oxoalkane-1,1,2,2-tetracarbonitriles (adducts of TCNE and ketones) with aldehydes in an acidic media. An unusual process of quasi hydrolysis of the cyano group was observed in the course of the described regio- an...

Crystalline solids, co-existing in equilibrium with the 3-methyl-1H-imidazolium bromohydrogenates(I) ionic liquid, have been characterised by X-ray diffraction analysis. The Brønsted acidic, homo-conjugate [H(2)Br(3)](-) anions presented are discussed in terms of their structure and reactivity, in efforts to advance the understanding of Brønsted acidity in ionic liquid media.
