The complexation model for each system was established using the Irving-Rossotti equation. The formation of the 1:2 or 1:1 binary complexes and 1:1:1 ternary complexes in which the amino acid Val was used as the primary ligand and Para as the secondary ligand, as inferred from the corresponding potentiometric pH-metric titration curves, and their relative stabilities compared to the corresponding ML and ML2 binary complexes are expressed in terms of statistical parameters ∆logK, logK1 and logK2. The complex stability was found to follow the order of Cu(II) > Ni(II). Through these diagnostic studies, it was possible to give the general formula of compounds prepared from amino acids and paracetamol. Amino acid binds to the central ion through oxygen in the hydroxyl group and nitrogen atom in the amine group (-NH2), whereas paracetamol forms a unipolar bond by binding to the concentrated ion through the oxygen atom in the hydroxyl group. Most of the nickel complexes had octahedral symmetry with valine and paracetamol ligands, while the copper complexes had square or hierarchical to square base symmetry.","PeriodicalId":17299,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society Section A: Chemistry","volume":"26 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"74926801","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

For this reason, methods and materials are being developed by researchers in line with effective, economic, and environmental principles. In this study, the removal of methylene blue, a toxic dyestuff, from aqueous solutions was investigated by synthesizing sodium alginate (SA) and graphene nanoplatelet-sodium alginate composite (SA-GNP) beads. The structural characteristics of the materials were analyzed using FTIR, TGA, optical microscope, and SEM methods. All parameters determining the efficiency of the methylene blue adsorption system were optimized in a batch system. The effects of various factors, such as adsorbent amount, contact time, adsorption temperature, dye concentration, solution pH, pHzpc values of SA and SA-GNP beads, presence of different ions, and beads swelling, on the adsorption process, were investigated. To investigate the mechanism of the adsorption system, the adsorption data were fitted to a non-linear form of the Langmuir, Freundlich, and Temkin equilibrium isotherm models, as well as the Pseudo-first-order (PFO), Pseudo-second-order (PSO), and Bangham kinetic models. High regression coefficients were achieved in the studied kinetic and isotherm models (0.86 ≤ R2 ≤ 0.99), and the experimental data were found to be compatible with the model parameters. Maximum adsorption capacities (qm) of 167.52 mg/g and 290.36 mg/g were obtained for the SA and SA-GNP adsorbents, respectively, at 308 K. The optimum temperature for both adsorption systems was found to be 308 K. The efficiency of methylene blue dyestuff removal was improved with graphene nanoplatelet-based adsorbents.","PeriodicalId":17299,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society Section A: Chemistry","volume":"67 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"83960733","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The disadvantages of these methods are low selectivity, inconvenience, and inefficiency. Among the existing technologies, molecularly imprinted polymers (MIPs) are one of the most efficient and economical methods for the removal of caffeine contaminants. In this study, the objective was to prepare MIPs for the removal of complicated samples. The obtained materials were used as a sorbent for the extraction of caffeine from coffee brewed in an espresso. The MIPs were prepared using konjac/acrylic acid as a functional monomer, N, N′-methylenebisacrylamide as a cross-linker, and caffeine as a template. The chemical structures of MIPs were characterized by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. MIPs exhibited a higher maximum adsorption capacity (87.72 mg/g). The equilibrium adsorption data fit well with the Langmuir adsorption isotherm models, which confirm the monolayer adsorption behaviour of caffeine molecules on the surfaces of the MIPs samples. According to the experimental results of the adsorption capacity of caffeine from aqueous solution, the MIPs showed a higher percentage removal of caffeine (75.66%). Our findings suggest that MIPs are useful adsorbents for the decaffeination of coffee brewed in an espresso.","PeriodicalId":17299,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society Section A: Chemistry","volume":"38 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-03-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"82459585","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is susceptible to easy degradation, especially during pre-treatment and storage. This study aimed at forecasting the degradation of vitamin C in commonly consumed vegetable (cabbage) dipped in different pre-treatment solutions at different time intervals. The samples after dipping at different time intervals were prepared for analysis. Evaluation of the ascorbic acid content of the vegetable was determined using High-Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC). This consists of an isocratic elution procedure with ultraviolet-visible detection at 245 nm. The half-lives and rate constants were calculated using the integrated law method. Forecasts were determined using time series analysis. Degradation of vitamin C in this study followed a first-order kinetic model, and the average coefficient of determination (R2-value) was greater than 0.9413. The rate constants of vitamin C degradation for the vegetable dipped in different pretreatment solutions (sodium chloride, sodium benzoate, sodium metabisulfite and vinegar) at different time intervals were 0.0804, 0.1049, 0.0706 and 0.0553 minutes-1; half-lives were 8.2322, 7.3896, 10.9675, and 12.1086 minutes, respectively. The vegetable dipped in different pretreatments for 90 minutes exhibited ln(C) forecast of -2.2057, -4.6307, -1.1746, and 0.0789, respectively. The coefficient of correlation for sodium chloride, sodium benzoate, sodium metabisulfite, and vinegar are 0.084, 0.093, 0.063 and 0.059 respectively. The kinetic models were formulated using predicted initial contents, processing time, and measured contents. The vegetable dipped in vinegar pretreatment solution using ln(C) =ln(C0) - 0.0553t gave the best model. From the results, the most appropriate pretreatment solution for enhancing the shelf life of cabbage is synthetic vinegar (prepared from acetic acid) because it has a lower rate constant, lower coefficient of correlation, and the longest half-life.","PeriodicalId":17299,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Turkish Chemical Society Section A: Chemistry","volume":"33 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-02-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"72945161","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
