Furthermore, the thermodynamic studies indicated that the sorption process of methylene blue dye using the activated carbon was spontaneous and exothermic.A kinetic and mechanistical studies of the new pathway for competitive transformation of ethylene glycol by alumina and silica gel have been described. Commercial alumina (Al com), synthetic alumina (Al syn), commercial silica gel (Si com) and synthetic silica gel (Si syn) were used for the transformation of ethylene glycol to a mixture of diethylene glycol, 1,4-dioxane and 2-methyl-1,3-dioxolane via acetaldehyde by heating at 150 °C under autogenous pressure without solvent. The results show that the yield of these three products strongly depends on the nature of the used catalyst and the reaction time.The objectives of this study were to (i) determine the effects of tryptophan on the polymorphic phase transformation of CaCO3, (ii) investigate the thermal degradation characteristics of CaCO3 in terms of kinetics and thermodynamics using the Coats-Redfern method, and (iii) assess the influence of the experimental conditions on the vaterite composition of CaCO3 using response surface methodology based on central composite design. First, the CaCO3 crystals were prepared and analyzed using XRD, FTIR, SEM, BET, AFM, and zeta potential analysis. Based on the characterization results, the shape of the CaCO3 crystals changed from smooth cubic calcite crystals to porous irregular spherical-like vaterite crystals with increasing tryptophan concentration. Meanwhile, the kinetic results showed that the thermal degradation of CaCO3 followed the shrinkage geometrical spherical mechanism, R3 and the average activation energy was 224.6 kJ/mol. According to the results of the experimental design, the tryptophan concentration was the most influential variable affecting the relative fraction of vaterite in the produced crystals. It can be concluded that tryptophan is important for better understanding and controlling the polymorph, size, and morphology of CaCO3 crystals.Heterogeneity of meroterpenoids arising from their dual biosynthetic origins is constantly provoking synthetic chemists to utilize their ingenuity and revise their retrosynthetic logic. compound3i By studying recent publications on meroterpenoid synthesis, tremendous advances in the field of synthetic organic chemistry can be witnessed.

In this work, a combination of three computational analyzes 3D-QSAR, molecular docking and ADME evaluation were applied in thienopyrimidine derivatives intended toward gram-positive bacterium Staphylococcus aureus. The validity of 3D-QSAR model was tested with a set of data which is divided into a training and a test set. The two models constructed (CoMFA and CoMSIA) show good statistical reliability (q2 = 0.758; r2 = 0.96; r2pred = 0.783) and (q2 = 0.744; r2 = 0.97; r2pred = 0.625) respectively. In addition, docking methods were applied to understand the structural features responsible for the affinity of the ligands in the binding of S. aureus DNA gyrase. Drug likeness and ADME analysis applied in this series of new proposed compounds, have shown that the five lead molecules would have the potential to be effective drugs and could be used as a starting point for designing compounds against Staphylococcus aureus.For thyroid function estimation and clinical decision making, use of appropriate reference intervals for thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), free thyroxine (fT4) and free triiodothyronine (fT3) is crucial. For each laboratory, establishment of own reference intervals is advised. For the first Slovenian estimation of reference intervals for thyroid hormones a large group of 1722 healthy individuals without thyroid disease was established retrospectively. Hormone analyses were performed on automated analyser Advia Centaur XP Immunoassay System (Siemens Healthineers), which reference intervals for TSH, fT4 and fT3 were 0.55-4.78 mIU/L, 11.5-22.7 pmol/L, and 3.5-6.5 pmol/L, respectively. Statistical analysis followed non-parametric percentile method. Our laboratory reference intervals for TSH, fT4 and fT3 are mostly narrower than intervals given by manufacturer. Median value, lower and upper limit for TSH, fT4 and fT3 were 1.98 (0.59-4.23) mIU/L, 14.5 (11.3-18.8) pmol/L and 4.82 (3.79-6.05) pmol/L, respectively. Most likely, an inclusion of a high number of healthy individuals without thyroid disease was a reason for such results.Vancomycin, an antimicrobial, does not present quantitative method by infrared spectrometry in the literature for the evaluation of a pharmaceutical product. This technique is considered a clean alternative because in the main, there is no solvent involved and the generation of waste is reduced. So, the aim of this study was to develop and validate a new, ecological, low cost and fast method by infrared spectrometry using KBr and band between 1450-1375 cm-1. It was linear in the range of 1.0-2.0 mg/150 mg, with a correlation coefficient of 0.9994. Selective when the spectra of vancomycin reference and sample were compared. Precise by repeatability (2.29%) and intermediate precision (3.12%). Accurate with average recovery of 99.37% and robust when strength and compression time of the pellets and KBr brand were varied. Considering all the methods found in literature, there is not one using infrared spectrometry for quantitative purpose, so the method developed and validated could be considered an innovation and clean alternative. This is due to the fact that it is fast, easy to handle, low cost, and non-toxic as well as generating minimal waste. The method can be applied in the routine analysis of vancomycin dosage form and is an important option for the current and sustainable pharmaceutical analysis.In the present work, both unused plasticized poly(1-chloroethylene) membranes and membranes taken from a flat roof area were comprehensively analysed. First, tensile strength and elongation at breaking points were determined, followed by measurements of wettability. Secondly, morphological changes were analysed using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). To study chemical changes in aged membranes, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis in the attenuated total reflection mode (ATR) was used. Finally, thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry (TGA-DSC) were performed simultaneously to study thermal degradation. The results show obvious changes in the mechanical, physical and chemical properties of membranes caused by plasticizer loss. Surface microstructure becomes stiffer, which leads to contractions and the prevalence of voids. In cross-sectional area, average thickness values decrease. Due to the degradation of the plasticized waterproofing membranes, the roofing area had to be completely replaced.The synthesis of hydrazides formed by quinazolin-4(3H)-ylidenehydrazine and dicarboxylic acids, as well as their further modification are described in the present manuscript. It was shown that above-mentioned hydrazides may be obtained via acylation of initial quinazolin-4(3H)-ylidenehydrazine by corresponding acylhalides, cyclic anhydrides and imidazolides of dicarboxylic acids monoesters. Obtained hydrazides were converted into [1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazolines that were used as initial compounds for chemical modification aimed to the introduction of amide fragment to the molecule. The IR, 1H NMR and chromato-mass spectral data of obtained compounds were studied and discussed. Obtained substances were studied for anti-inflammatory activity using carrageenan-induced paw inflammation model. Amides of ([1,2,4]triazolo[1,5-c]quinazoline-2-yl)alkyl carboxylic acids were detected as promising class of anti-inflammatory agents for further purposeful synthesis and profound study of anti-inflammatory activity.A novel mononuclear zinc coordination compound with formula [Zn(Hsal)2(Py)2] (H2sal = salicylic acid, Py = pyridine) was prepared by mixing aqueous solutions of sodium salicylate and zinc sulfate in 11 molar ratio, and to the resulting solution pyridine was added dropwise. The obtained compound was characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectroscopy, and its crystal structure was determined by single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. X-ray structure analysis has shown that the central zinc ion is four-coordinated by two monodentate salicylato ligands and two pyridine molecules, forming a distorted tetrahedron. Since the asymmetric unit consists of two halves of coordination molecules, orthorhombic Ibca space group symmetry leads to two coordination molecules with slightly different geometry. The comparison between the two is given in terms of interatomic distances and angles, and also in terms of differences in intermolecular interactions obtained as a result of Hirshfeld surface analysis. With the assistance of C-H…O interactions, the adjacent molecules are linked into chains and further connected into three-dimensional network.In this research, a number of new and known chromenopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives have been prepared. Initially, according to the reported procedure, pyrano[2,3-c]chromene derivatives were synthesized by the reaction between 4-hydroxycoumarin, aromatic aldehydes and malononitrile using silica sodium carbonate (SSC) as the catalyst. Next, the prepared pyrano[2,3-c]chromenes were reacted by dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate (DMAD) or cyclohexanone in the presence of sodium carbonate to produce chromenopyrano[2,3-b]pyridine derivatives. The presented protocol avoids the use of expensive catalysts and gives useful potentially bioactive heterocycles in excellent to high yields.Local anesthetics are one of the most widely used drug classes in clinical practice. Like many other biological molecules, their properties are altered depending on their protonation status, which is dependent on the pH of the environment. We studied the transport energetics of seven local anesthetics from the extracellular fluid across the biological membrane to the axoplasm in order to understand the effect of pH value on their efficacy and other pharmaco-dynamic properties. In this we applied three different methods of solvent reaction field in conjunction with quantum chemical calculations to reproduce experimental values of n-octanol/water partition coefficients for both neutral and protonated forms. Only the SMD method of Cramer and Truhlar was able to reproduce experimental partition coefficient values. The results are discussed in terms of the function of local anesthetics under physiological conditions and in the case of local acidosis.In this work, the effect of the presence and the diffusion of the Copper from the tool electrode onto the EDMed stainless steel (SS) surface have been investigated by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), X-ray diffraction (XRD), Quantometer analysis, and Optical microscopic observations. The Taguchi method was used to study the effects of Pulse-on time (ton), Pulse-off time (toff), discharge current (I), and overall machining time (τ) on chemical composition, microstructures, micro-cracks, and electrochemical corrosion of EDMed stainless steel workpieces. The results show that the variation of machining parameters changes the chemical composition of the workpieces. By increasing the discharge current and decreasing the Pulse-on time, the copper and the carbon diffuse onto the surface of the workpiece. Consequently, the chemical composition of the workpiece surface changes, which leads to an increment of the corrosion resistance. The XRD showed the formation of Fe2C, Cr3C2, and CuNi. In addition, at higher values of discharge current and ton/toff ratio, the micro-cracks propagate on the surface of the workpiece.
