In this treatise, the effect of type of macrocycle ring on the final structure of the complexes which made from them was investigated. For this purpose, by changing the 15-membered benzylic macrocycle with two pyridine pendant arms (2p), which was studied in our previous experiments (the effect of the position of the nitrogen atom of the pyridine ring in the side arm and the type of metal ion in the geometry of its complexes), two new macrocycles by adding a naphthalene rings instead of benzylic ringsin in 2p and increasing the ring size from 15 to 17 members, Lpy-naph and Lpy-benz were symthesized respectively. The molecular formula and structure of Lpy-naph and Lpy-benz were confirmed by... 

In the first project, we have described the preparation of quadruply linked naphthalimide compounds 3-6. These compounds showed weak and strong excimeric emissions in solid and solution states, respectively. The experimental and theoretical results showed that the adjacent naphthalimide rings were oriented in solution so that intramolecular interchromophoric interactions enhanced the quantum yield efficiencies. However, although the strong intramolecular π and solute-solvent interactions in solution were replaced by n→π*, inter- and intramolecular π-interactions in the solid state, the naphthalimide units were aligned so that the quantum yield efficiencies were diminished. Also, a rise in...

In this project, multi-nucleated clusters of copper (I)-gold (I) and silver (I)-gold (I) were synthesized. Initially, two tetranuclear Au2Cu2 cluster complexes [Au2Cu2(μ-(PPh2)2py)2(μ-OH)](PF6)3, and [Au2Cu2Cl2(μ-(PPh2)2 py)2](OTf)2, have been prepared by the reactions of precursor complexes [Au2(μ-(PPh2)2py)2](OTf)2, and [Cu2(μ-(PPh2)2py)2(μ-SMe2)(OTf)2], with [Cu(NCCH3)4]PF6 and AuCl(SMe2), respectively. The crystal structures of two clusters were determined by X-ray crystallography, indicating a butterfly-shaped Au2Cu2 metal core for the first and a planar-shaped Au2Cu2 metal core for second cluster. In the first cluster, the Cu atoms occupy the edge-sharing bond, while in the second... 

In this project, in continuation of a PhD resreach undertaken in this research group in 2017, the synthesis and study of two new tweezer and linker molecule bearing azobenzene moiety were carried out, characterized by applying IR spectroscopy, ¹H and ¹³C {¹H} NMR, fluorescence spectroscopy, UV-visible spectroscopy, elemental analysis and X-ray crystallography. Firstly, interaction of T2 with meso-tetraphenylporphyrinato zinc(II) and aluminium tetraphenylporphyrinato were studied using the fluorescence spectroscopy. The formation constant of T2 in cis and trans isomer with ZnTPP was measured as 5.1(±0.4) ×108 and 2.0×108(±1074) dm6mol-2, respectively. The formation constant of T2 in with... 

In this work, a new catalyst based on gold nanoparticles immobilized on magnetic GO (graphene oxide) has been introduced. A new ligand based on pyridine has been used to the functionalization of GO to design robust heterogeneous catalyst for reduction in a short time using a low amount of the catalyst. The prepared catalyst was employed in the synthesis of aromatic amines using various types of nitroarnes in water. This catalyst is readily prepared from available starting materials and also is a reusable catalyst having very good stability to air and moisture. The proposed procedure applied here can conduct the reactions under milder reactions. Finally, due to total removal of the... 

In this project, M2 macrocyclic ligand, bearing three pyridine side arms (3p) was synthesized and characterized by employing elemental analysis and 1H NMR, 13C NMR and IR methods. The interaction of 3p with zinc tetraphenylporphyrin was investigated, using fluorescence and UV-vis spectroscopy in solution phase. The observed quenching in the fluorescence spectrum alongside Q band shift in UV-vis spectrum indicate on the interaction of 3p with ZnTPP. The formation constant for these interactions in 1:1 ratio was calculated 10100 M-1, employing fluorescence method. The formation constant was calculated 630 M-1 for 1:2 ratio for 3p:ZnTPP. Having 1:2 ratio 3pZnTPP was also synthesized and...
