In the present research, two series of N2O2- and N4O2-naphthadiaza-crown macrocyclic ligands with different macroring size, 15-21 memberd (L1-L7) were synthesized using direct method. The products were characterized by applying 1H and 13C NMR, IR spectroscopy, mass spectrometry and elemental analysis and in some cases by X-ray crystallography. Firstly, to study on emission properties of naphthadiaza-crown macrocyclic ligands as a fluorophore, we employed different amines as fluorescence quencher. It was observed that the quenching effects of 3o aliphatic amines like triethylamine were more pronounce than other group of amines. Also, the quenching constants for interactions of macrocyclic... 

In this study, different metal oxides were impregnated on the surface of ZSM-5 employed as photocatalysis for degradation of methylene blue dye used in the presence of ultraviolet light. The final products were characterized by powder X-ray diffraction (XRD) and fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) method. According to the proposed mechanism for the photocatalytic degradation of methylene blue based on these results, it was found that the reaction followed from the first-order mechanism. The results indicated that rate constant for pure ZSM-5 was 9.3〖 ₓ10〗^(-3) (min-1). Furthermore the impregnated ZSM-5 having 12% zinc oxide demonstrated the highest photocatalytic activity with rate constant... 

In the present study, the coordination chemistry of an O4N4-tetrabenza-crown ether macrocyclic ligand L1 with M2+ (M= Cu, Cd, Hg, and Pb) was investigated by employing UV-visible, 1H-NMR spectroscopy in their solutions. According to the association constants calculated by 1H-NMR titrations, the complex formation stability for these closed shell cations was found in a series of Pb > Hg > Cd, leading to the larger cation, the better accommodation with L1. Moreover, the supramolecular interaction of L1 with fullerene C60 was also assessed by UV-visible spectroscopy. Meanwhile, the structure of [Cd(1)]2+ complex was determine by X-ray crystallographic method in their solid state. A square... 

Co(salen)-type complexes: Co(salen), Co(salophen), Co(3,5-Brsalen), Co(Clsalen), Co(3-OMe,5-Brsalen), Co(saltmen), Co(Brsalen), Co(OMesalen) were shown to be efficient catalysts for oxidizing cumene to cumyl alcohol, methylstyrene and acetophenone. The mixture was characterized by 1H NMR and GC-Mass spectroscopy. Product s efficiency and turnover number of catalysists were determined. Proposal of the mechanism provides a rationale for the influence of ligand substitutions on the reaction. A series of experiments are reported to provide strong support for a mechanistic scheme that involves reaction of coordinated dioxygen. On the basis of these observations, the coordination of O2 to this... 

The goal of this project was study on coordination behavior of the 14-membered macrocyclic ligand of type N2O2 aza-crown while it is attached to fullerene C60 nano-particle. For this purpose, firstly the macrocyclic ligand (Fig 3-1, L1) was synthesized and then was reacted with C60 (Fig 3-1, L2) of which the product was characterized by elemental analysis. Since the product was insoluble in any solvents, further study on its coordination chemistry was impossible. In a second procedure, the macrocyclic ligand was reacted with benzylbromide. The reaction mixture gave two macrocyclic ligands with different number of benzylic pendant groups (Fig 3-1, L3-L4). The products were separated by column... 

The aim of this study at the outset is synthesis of ligands with the ability to bridge formation between two groups i.e. C60 and Cobalt Schiff base complex (CoSALEN). Hence, four Schiff base ligands with pyridine electron donor moiety in one side, and such electron donor moiety pyridine, phenol and aniline in another side were synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, 13C¬NMR, 1HNMR and IR Spectroscopy. In next step the interaction of these Schiff base ligands with CoSALEN complex and Fullerene C60, in the mixture of two solvents, i.e. toluene/dimethylsulfoxide and benzene/methanol was explored separately by UV-Visible Spectroscopy and their kinetic studies were also undertaken... 

Inorganic membranes are a group of compounds which are used in gas separations such as isolating of oxygen from air and/or in petrochemical process like OCM, POM. These days, a variety of research is being conducted to synthesize these membranes from perovskite structures with formulation of ABO3. These compounds have various production procedures and various final perovskite compounds. The purpose of this project is to synthesis and identification of a group of phenolic amino acidic derivatives as new chelating agents, and their use in synthesis of perovskite membranes. For this, novel phenol derivatives of glycine, alanine, β- alanine and leucine amino acids were synthesized and... 

New N4O6 molecular tweezers were synthesized from N2O2 benzo- and naphthodiazacrown macrocycles bearing benzylic dialdehydes as a flexible and semi-flexible spacer in a short time and at room temperature. The products were characterized by IR, 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy as well as elemental microanalysis. The interactions of some of these tweezers with C60, Cu(II), Co(II), Ni(II), Zn(II), Hg(II) and Mn(II) were investigated by employing UV-Vis and fluorescence spectroscopy. Efficient fluorescence responses for 2NM3BD were observed in the presence of C60, Cu(II), Mn(II), Hg(II) and Zn(II). Meanwhile, the calculation of the association constants (K¬BH) employing Benesi-Hildebrand equation in...

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...
