Keynote: Perstraction Study of Dyes through a Polymeric Membrane
Biography:

Nosheen Iftikhar is currently doing a Ph. D. at the University of Manchester, School of Chemistry, and also work as a teaching assistant in the same institute. Her main project is based on separation of dyes through polymeric membranes.

 

Abstract:

Perstraction is a membrane-based solvent extraction process used for the separation of a non-vaporizing solute from its solution. The solute is allowed to adsorb on one side of the membrane and is then desorbed by a stripping liquid on the other side of membrane (Figure 1). The perstraction process is advantageous as a continuous process, in comparison with a batch process of adsorption and desorption in two separate steps. The present study focused on the separation of a mixture of dyes (Oil Red O and Remazole brilliant blue R) from their ethanolic and aqueous ethanolic solutions. A polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) was chosen as the polymeric membrane material because it not only has a higher BET surface area of 780 m2 g-1 and interconnected free volume of 11 %, but also has a higher affinity for neutral solutes. It was crosslinked with polyethyleneimine (PEI) to enhance its stability towards the organic solvents. PIM-1 alone is selective for the neutral solute, but after crosslinking anionic dye (Remazol) also got adsorbed on the polymeric membrane. Dye fractionation was still maintained in the present case as Remazol was not desorbed by toluene as a stripping liquid. Toluene strips away only the Oil Red O and not the Remazol. The amount of dye in both feed and stripping solution was measured by a UV/Visible spectrophotometer.

It was seen that the nature of the solvent played an important role in the adsorption of dye onto the membrane surface. Adsorption of dye was enhanced and equilibrium was attained in much quicker time when the solvent nature was changed from ethanolic to aqueous ethanolic (70 wt. % ethanol + 30 wt. % H2O). The perstraction process was also compared with an adsorption/desorption process carried out in two separate steps and it was seen that the decrease in dye concentration in the feed solution for the perstraction process was greater as compared to the batch process of adsorption

Abstract:

The present work aimed to prepare some compounds for use in pigmented solar cells based on charge transfer (CT) complexation. For this purpose, first, several derivatives of 1,8–naphthalimide and benzanthrone fluorescent dyes were synthesized. Secondly, the synthesized fluorescent dyes were bonded to picric acid (PA) acceptor via CT interaction in methanol solvent at room temperature. Then, the synthesized CT complexes were stoichiometrically, spectroscopically and thermally characterized. The results obtained from CHN elemental analyses and spectrophotometric titrations indicated the formation of CT complexes with a molar ratio of 1:1 between the PA and each dye. The spectroscopic and physical parameters (KCT,εmax, ECT, f, μ, RN, IP, and ΔG°), the band gap energy (Eg), and the kinetic–thermodynamic parameters (E*⁎,A, ΔS⁎, ΔH⁎ and ΔG⁎) were calculated for each CT product in methanol solvent at room temperature. IR results indicated that the complexation between each dye and PA acceptor occurs through π → π* and proton transfer interactions.

Abstract:

The physicochemical characterization of coal samples from deposits provides mineral distribution and composition data for utilization by scientists and policy makers. The characterization of coal samples of Ihioma coal deposits in Imo state, Nigeria was performed using proximate and ultimate analyses. XRD and ICP-AES were used to characterize the coal samples for potential energy utilization. Proximate analyse determined fixed carbon content and volatile matter to be 51.5% and 38.5% respectively, an indication of a good coking material. The carbon % in the ultimate analyses was at 64.6% while O2, H2, N2 and S were all below 5% which showed the coal potential to emit lower emissions. ICP-AES chemical composition determined SiO2 to be the most abundant followed by Na2O. The XRD peaks classified Ihioma coal as having Quartz, Albite and Haematite. Material mapping by XRD showed that Al and Si were evenly distributed while S, Co and Fe were unevenly distributed. Thus Ihioma coal has features of ignition and can undergo spontaneous combustion, hence a good source of thermal energy. Results also confirmed Ihioma coal as a potential material for pigments and can be utilized for ceramics, pottery andornamentals.

Abstract:

The oxidation of propane-1,3-diol by potassium permanganate in aqueous solution have been studied at λmax 525 nm. The rate of the reaction has been found to  increase with increase in [KMnO4] and [Propane-1,3-diol]. The reaction shows first order dependence both on [KMnO4] and [Propane-1,3-diol] and independent on the  ionic strength of the solution. The (kJ mol-1), (kJK-1mol-1)(kJ mol-1)   were 24.98, -0.22 and 90.50 respectively.  Negative entropy of activation revealed an  ordered transition state for the reaction. Spectroscopic studies showed the product of the  reaction to be 3-hydroxyl-propanal. A plausible mechanism in consonance with  spectroscopic studies and kinetic result was proposed.

Abstract:

This research was aimed at synthesizing Mannich bases of piperidine and p-chloroaniline derivatives and investigating their antioxidant and antimicrobial activities since report has it that Mannich bases possessing electron withdrawing group show good anti-oxidant, antimicrobial, anti-cancer and anti-tumour properties. The synthesized compounds were characterized by Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR), Infra red (IR) and Ultra/Violet-Visible (UV-V) spectroscopy. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical and Agar Well diffusion methods were used for the antioxidant and antimicrobial screening respectively.

Eight Mannich bases namely N,3-diphenyl-3-(piperidin-1-yl)propanamide (MB1), 3-((4-chlorophenyl)amino)-2-hydroxy-1,2,3-triphenylpropan-1-one (MB2), 2-((3-((4-chlorophenyl)amino)-3-phenylpropanoyl)oxy)benzoic acid (MB3), 3-(((4-chlorophenyl)amino)(phenyl)methyl)-5,7-dihydroxy-2-(4-hydroxyphenyl)chroman-4-one (MB4), 3-((4-chlorophenyl)amino)-3-(4-hydroxy-3-methoxyphenyl)-1-phenylpropan-1-one (MB5), 3-((4-chlorophenyl)amino)-N,3-diphenylpropanamide (MB6), benzoic 2-((4-chlorophenylamino)methyl)benzoic peroxyanhydride (MB7) and 3-(4-chlorophenylamino)-1,3-diphenylpropan-1-one (MB8) were synthesized. NMR confirmed the presence of the N-H aromatic stretch, in the range δ 4.00. IR also confirmed the presence of C=O, O-H and N-H typical of the Mannich bases. The Ultra/Violet-Visible absorption spectra for the synthesized compounds revealed that the compounds are aromatic. In vitro antioxidant screening of the compounds by DPPH free radical scavenging method showed that the compounds possessed significant antioxidant activity when compared with standards vitamin C, and butylatedhydroxylanisole (BHA). MB3 (73.56%, 71.17%), MB4 (78.83%, 75.25%), MB5 (73.06%, 70.58%), MB6(74.55%, 72.47%) and MB8 (78.73%, 74.65%) showed significant inhibition at 1.0 mg/mL and 0.5 mg/mL respectively. MB1, MB2 and MB3 shows potent antimicrobial activity while MB4 – MB8 showed moderate activity, against bacterial and fungal strains when compared with the standards, Gentamicin and Tioconazole for bacteria and fungi respectively. This research work has therefore provided information about the spectroscopic properties, anti-oxidant and antimicrobial activities of new Mannich bases

Abstract:

 3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazine and its derivatives were described as promising candidates for many choices of therapeutic applications. This fascinating class of heterocyclic compounds can exhibit various biological properties such as antibacterial1, cardiovascular protector2, anti-hypertensive3, anti-angiogenesis4, anti-thrombin5 or neuroprotective activities6. Due to those potential effects, 3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4- benzoxazine became an attractive target to develop. However, because of receptor selectivity, chirality now becomes a top subject in chemistry. Within one molecule such as levofloxacin or thalidomide, different chirality may exhibit different pharmacological activities.

As a result, we raised an awareness about the obtainment of 3,4- dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazine enantiopure analogues but there were not many reports in the literature brought up an effortless procedure to achieve it. Therefore, we are making an effort to design a straightforward way to directly acquire the chiral ethyl 3,4-dihydro-2H- 1,4-benzoxazine-2-carboxylate. As our targeted compound could be easily prepared by allowing appropriate aminophenol reacts with ethyl 2,3-dibromopropionate, this reaction always lead to racemic 1,4- benzoxazine as the main product in high yield. Our desire is to attempt chiral (R)- or (S)-ethyl-2,3-dibromopropionate which had never been described in the literature in order to replace the role of racemic one and (R)- or (S)-ethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazine-2-carboxylate by two strategies: enantioselective synthesis and preparative enantioseparation of racemate using different chiral stationary phases (CSPs). Once ethyl-3,4-dihydro-2H-1,4-benzoxazine-2-carboxylate enantiopure is obtained, it could be easily to introduce as new β-amino acid analogs in peptidic chains by coupling O- and N-terminal extremities with different α-amino acids.

Abstract:

Palladium-catalyzed coupling reactions offer efficient and simple procedures leading to important aryl compounds, such as acids, amides, ketones, or biaryls [1-3]. Benzoic acids, amides, and ketones are common structural motifs found in many natural products, pharmaceuticals, and agrochemicals [4]. Although palladium is a metal of choice in the Suzuki–Miyaura and carbonylative coupling reactions due to its very high efficiency, searching for new palladium catalysts is still a challenge. Not only complexes but also palladium nanoparticles (Pd NPs) should be taken into account [5-6]. In our studies, Pd/DNA catalysts were prepared in a mixed H2O/EtOH solvent using palladium precursors, Pd(OAc)2 and PdCl2, in different dosages and salmon fish sperm DNA. As prepared, the Pd/DNA contained palladium nanoparticles of various sizes and morphologies, active in the Suzuki–Miyaura cross-coupling of various aryl bromides with phenylboronic acids. The catalyst was recovered by simple phase separation and then reused in seven consecutive cycles with a high activity. For the first time, Pd/DNA was applied with very good results in the carbonylative coupling of iodobenzene, leading to amides, benzoic acid, or benzophenone, depending on the kind of nucleophile used. The aminocarbonylation of iodobenzene with n-hexylamine was performed with excellent selectivity using Mo(CO)6 as a CO source, while a mixture of products was formed with gaseous CO. The recovered Pd/DNA catalyst was used in the next four runs with high activity..

Abstract:

Graphene oxide nanosheets decorated with one-dimensional metal oxide composites represent hotspot materials for designing sustainable vegetable oil-based nanocomposite coatings. In this paper, we have reported that graphene oxide nanosheets decorated with β–MnO2 nanorods (GO/MnO2 hybrid) were newly synthesized via a single step chemical deposition system. Linseed oil, which meets many principles of green chemistry, was used to design biobased alkyd matrix with hyperbranched moiety via a single-step polyesterification method. An advanced ternary nanocomposite series based on linseed oil alkyd filled with GO/β–MnO2 NRs was developed via a solution casting technique, applied on carbon steel, and dried through an auto-oxidation mechanism. The structures, sizes and morphologies of designed polymeric nanocomposites and nanofillers were elucidated using various techniques such as FT-IR, NMR, XRD, FE-TEM, FE-SEM and XPS. Nano-GO with sheet-thickness Ë‚ 2 nm as well as single-crystalline β–MnO2 NRs with 20-30 nm mean diameter-size, Ë‚ 1 µm length, and exposed with grown along [110] growth orientation of wurtzite structure were synthesized through controlled regimes. Surface heterogeneity, elasticity, non-wettability and corrosion-resistance features, are among the merits of developed composite. The synergetic effects of distributing different concentrations of GO/β–MnO2 in the alkyd matrix were studied to tune the coating mechanical and protective properties. The coatings' mechanical durability and thermal resistivity were investigated using impact, mandrel bend, cross-hatch and abrasion tests as well as thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) technique. The surface and anticorrosion features of the ternary nanocomposites were studied through water contact angle, atomic force microscopy, scanning electron microscope, and salt-fog experiment (in 5% NaCl solution). The highest reinforcing improvement with thorn-like protrusions roughness was achieved through insertion of 2.5 wt. % GO/β–MnO2 NRs fillers in the matrix. This fascinating biobased nanostructure coating provides a promising alternative for replacing petro-based anticorrosive coatings for the development of a sustainable future environment.

Abstract:

This study summarizes a fundamental investigation on the removal of aluminium ions from phosphoric acid solutions onto three kind of natural raw clays issued from different Tunisian deposit’s. Equilibrium removal isotherms were measured for the three clays used. The influence of some experimental parameters such as time contact and initial concentration of phosphoric acid solutions was studied. The clays used in this study were effective for aluminium elimination, the optimum initial concentration of phosphoric acid was found to be molar and one hour of contact time was very sufficient to reach equilibrium. The experimental data of the removal equilibrium were correlated by either the Langmuir or Freundlich equations. Results indicated that the Freundlich model gave a better fit to the experimental data than the Langmuir equation for the different clays. The results of the experiments suggest that the highest degree of acid purification was achived in the first five minutes of the present batch process with an equilibrium removal rate of 82 % and a maximum adsorption capacity of 145.66 mg/g by the Gafsa raw clay.
