Novel propargyl-ended heterobifunctional poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) derivatives with hydroxyl, carboxyl, mercapto or hydrazide end groups were synthesized with simplicity yet high efficiency. PEG (Mw = 3500 Da) with an α-hydroxyl group and an ω-carboxyl was used as the starting polymer. The carboxyl group of the bifunctional PEG was modified into a propargyl, then carboxyl, mercapto or hydrazi...

A new chelating material from mercerized cotton linter was prepared by a reaction with succinic anhydride in the presence of toluene/triethylamine and a 4-dimethylaminopyridine catalyst, followed by reacting with Fe(III) to obtain the final product. The materials were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectrometry, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive spectrometer; the ...

In this work, we analyze artificial heavy-metal solutions with ferrite nanoparticles. Measurements of adsorption effectiveness of different kinds of particles, pure magnetite or magnetite doped with calcium, cobalt, manganese, or nickel ions, were carried out. A dependence of the adsorption efficiency on the composition of the inorganic core has been observed. Ferrites surfaces were modified by...

This research includes synthesis of new heterocyclic containing (1,3-oxazepine) derivatives 6- methyl 2-thiouracil. The preparation process started by the reaction 2-thiouracil with ethyl chloroacete to give 2-((4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl) thio) acetate (1). Compound (1) reacted hydrazine hydrate 2-((4-hydroxy-6-methylpyrimidin-2-yl)thio) aceto hydrazide (2). That various substituted benz...

The goal of this research was to study the curing behavior and biodegradability DER 736 modified with epoxidized oleic acid. In this paper we demonstrate the efficient epoxidation of oleic acid with performic acid generated in situ from formic acid and hydrogen peroxide in the presence of H2SO4 as catalyst. The highest relative epoxy yield of 61% was achieved at 40 ͦC after 10 h. DER 736 modifie...

We describe a novel two-step approach for the synthesis of compounds with hydroxyl-amide group (hydroxamic acids), which are widely known their biological activity (histone deacetylase inhibitors, matrix metalloproteinases inhibitors and others). The first stage is N-substituted succinimide via reaction aromatic amine or carboxylic acid hydrazide succinic anhydride. second step involves imide r...

Binding constants between the glycopeptides teicoplanin (Teic) and ristocetin (Rist) and their derivatives to D-Ala-D-Ala terminus peptides were determined by on-column receptor synthesis coupled to partial-filling affinity capillary electrophoresis (PFACE) or affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE). In these techniques, the column is first partially filled with increasing concentrations of D-...
