Abstract
Xanthene dyes, such as fluorescein and rhodamine, have played crucial rules in biological sciences especially covalent attachment of these organic compounds to biomolecules. 3-O-methylfluorescein and 3,6-O-dimethylfluorescein were synthesized and purified using a facile procedure. 3,6-O-dimethylfluorescein, which lacks fluorescence, was treated with sodium hydroxide and sulfuric acid solutions, giving rise to yellow and green fluorescent compounds, respectively. In both basic and acidic conditions, donor-acceptor structures were formed. The reaction of 3,6-O-dimethylfluorescein with acids, in a reversible manner, emitted green fluorescence, whereas its reaction with hydroxide ion,...

In this investigation, simulation of the 3D flow of incompressible molten metal in a mould cavity has been carried out. A code has been developed to include heat transfer and permeability of coating utilizing the finite difference method (FDM). To achieve this, solid and free boundary conditions have been modified and a new algorithm has been proposed to calculate the effect of coating permeability during mould filling. In this algorithm, the effect of coating permeability on the filling pattern has been modelled and compared with an experiment. The modelling of molten metal flow and the location of free surfaces has been simulated based on the SOLution Algorithm-Volume Of Fraction...

Abstract
A new mathematical model has been developed to simulate mould filling in the lost foam casting process, using the finite difference method. The simulation of molten flow and track of free surfaces is based on the SOLA-VOF numerical technique. An algorithm was developed to calculate the gas pressure of the evaporated foam during the mould filling. The effect of backpressure on the filling behaviour was modelled with an experimental function by adding three-dimensions 3DVOF functions. In order to verify the computational results, a thin grey iron plate was poured into a transparent mould. Cavity filling, foam depolymerization and gap formation were recorded with a 16mm high-speed camera. A...

Abstract
In this investigation, an algorithm was developed to calculate the gas pressure at the melt/foam interface (gap) owing to degraded foam during mould filling in the lost foam casting process (LFC). The effect of back-pressure on mould filling was modelled using a new experimental function by the addition of a three-dimensional volume of fluid (3D-VOF) function. The molten flow and free surface were simulated using the solution algorithm-VOF (SOLA-VOF) numerical technique. To simulate the three-dimensional incompressible flow in the LFC, the pressure boundary conditions, heat transfer and foam gas pressure effect were modified. Finally, in order to verify the computational results of...
Investigation and Study of Microstructure, Dielectric and Non-ohmic Properties of tin and Cobalt Oxide Systems Co-Doped with Electron Donor and Acceptor Elements
, M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology ; Nemati, Ali (Supervisor) ; Maleki Shahraki, Mohammad (Supervisor)
Abstract
In recent years, there are continuous researches on replacing new dielectrics with suitable dielectric properties (including high dielectric coefficient, low loss factor, high breakdown voltage, and high nonlinear coefficient simultaneously). One of these new materials is co-doped titanium oxide with donor and acceptor of electron, which in spite of having high dielectric coefficient and low loss factor. it has low breakdown voltage and researches on improving the disadvantages of this dielectric are ongoing. Due to the structural similarities between tin oxide and titanium oxide, the tin oxide can be an interesting system for studying and improving disadvantages in this field. In this study...

Abstract
A series of thiophene-based donor-acceptor-donor (D-A-D) oligomer substituted metalloporphyrins (MPors) with different 3d central metal-ions (M = Co, Ni, Cu, and Zn) were systematically investigated to screen efficient hybrid photocatalysts for CO2 reduction based on density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT simulations. Compared with base MPors, the newly designed hybrid photocatalysts have a lower bandgap energy, stronger and broader absorption spectra, and enhanced intermolecular charge transfer, exciton lifetime, and light-harvesting efficiency. Then, the introduction of D-A-D electron donor (ED) groups into the meso-positions of MPors is a promising method for the...
Influence of the hydrogen bonding on the basicity of selected macrocyclic amines
, Article Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry ; Volume 25, Issue 9 , 2012 , Pages 803-810 ; 08943230 (ISSN) ; Shakourian Fard, M ; Fattahi, A ; Sharif University of Technology

Abstract
The optimized minimum-energy geometries of different macrocyclic amines and their protonated structures were determined by using ab initio and density functional theory (DFT) calculations. All the gas phase optimizations and energy calculations were performed at the DFT/B3LYP/6-311++G(d,p) level of theory. The HF/6-31 + G(d,p) level was used for all single point calculations in the solution phase. Geometry optimizations indicate that the most stable structures are stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The proton affinity (PA) of macrocyclic amines is controlled by the strength of intramolecular hydrogen bonds of macrocyclic amines. These hydrogen bonds strongly influence the basicity...
Molecular dynamics simulation and MM-PBSA calculations of sickle cell hemoglobin in dimer form with Val, Trp, or Phe at the lateral contact
, Article Journal of Physical Organic Chemistry ; Volume 23, Issue 9 , March , 2010 , Pages 866-877 ; 08943230 (ISSN) ; Akbarzadeh, H ; Parsafar, G. A ; Sharif University of Technology
Abstract
As the delay time and hence nuclei formation play a crucial role in the pathophysiology of sickle cell disease, MD simulation and molecular mechanics-Poisson-Boltzmann surface area (MM-PBSA) calculations have been performed on three systems of hemoglobin; namely dimer of hemoglobin with valine (Hb S), tryptophan (Hbβ6W), and phenylalanine (Hbβ6F) at β6 position. The structural changes due to these aromatic substitutions are investigated. It is shown that β subunits have significant impact on the differences between a dimer and other crystal structures. Transition from a dimer to polymer for Hb S system affects the donor molecule more than that of the acceptor. In the case of donor and...

Abstract
Methyl 3-dimethylamino-2-cyanocrotonate (MDACC) has a remarkably weak carbon-carbon double bond. It has strong electron-withdrawing groups on one end and electron-donating groups on the other: a so-called push-pull ethylene. To investigate this unusual electronic structure, we have determined the crystal structure and measured both the 13C and 15N NMR chemical-shift tensors. These measurements are supplemented by shielding-tensor calculations done with density functional methods. The large difference (approximately 100 ppm) between isotropic chemical shifts of the two alkenyl carbons reflects a large charge release from the electron-donating side of C=C double bond to the...

Abstract
An electro membrane extraction (EME) methodology was utilized to study the isolation of some environmentally important pollutants, such as chlorophenols, from aquatic media based upon the electrokinetic migration process. The analytes were transported by application of an electrical potential difference over a supported liquid membrane (SLM). A driving force of 10 V was applied to extract the analytes through 1-octanol, used as the SLM, into a strongly alkaline solution. The alkaline acceptor solution was subsequently analyzed by high performance liquid chromatography-ultraviolet (HPLC-UV) detection. The parameters influencing electromigration, including volumes and pH of the donor and...
