The tautomerism, solvatochromism and non-linear optical properties of fluorescent 3-hydroxyquinoxaline-2-carboxalidine-4-aminoantipyrine

The Schiff base, 3-hydroxyquinoxaline-2-carboxalidine-4-aminoantipyrine, was synthesized by the condensation of 3-hydroxyquinoxaline-2-carboxaldehyde with 4-aminoantipyrine. HPLC, FT-IR and NMR spectral data revealed that the compound exists predominantly in the amide tautomeric form and exhibits both absorption and fluorescence solvatochromism, large stokes shift, two electron quasireversible redox behaviour and good thermal stability, with a glass transition temperature of 104oC. The third-order non-linear optical character was studied using open aperture Z-scan methodology employing 7 ns pulses at 532 nm. The third-order non-linear absorption coefficient, b, was 1.48 x 10-6 cm W-1 and the imaginary part of the third-order non-linear optical susceptibility, Im c(3), was 3.36 x10-10 esu. The optical limiting threshold for the compound was found to be 340 MW cm-2.

Studies on the Synthesis and Transformations of a Few 2(3H)- and 3(2H)-Furanones

The thesis entitled studies on the synthesis and transformations of a few 2(3H)- and 3(2H)- furanones. Furanones represent an interesting class of heterocyclic compounds, which constitute the central ring system of many natural products. The derivatives of furan is divided, depending on their structure 2(3H)-furanones(I), 2(5H)-furanones(II), and 3(2H)-furanones(III). Systems I&II are unsatured gama lactones known as ‘butenolides’. Compounds of this type also known as ‘crotonolactones’ based on the parent crotonic acid. In conclusion a number of 2(3H)-and 3(2H)- furanones were synthesized from dibenzoylalkene precursors and were characterized on the basis of spectral analytical and X-ray data. On direct irradiation 3,3-bis(4-chloropheneyl)-5-aryl-3H-furan -2-ones underwent decarbonylation to yield the corresponding alpha, beta- unsaturated carbonyl compounds and upon sensitized irradiation they underwent dimersation arising through a 2+2 cycloaddition reaction. Our studies on 3(2H)-furanones revealed that these compounds are thermally stable, while they undergo extensive decomposition to intractable mixtures under the influence of light. Similarly, the novel dibenzoylalkenes- type systems containing hetroatomatic rings synthesized by us also underwent extensive decomposition under the influence of heat. Some of the 3(2H)-furanones synthesized by us exhibit remarkable anti-proliferative activity.

Thermodynamic Parameters of Transfer of 2-Nitrobenzoic Acid & 3-Nitrobenzoic Acid from Water to Aqueous Salt Solutions

The Setschenow parameters of solubility in salt solutions and the thermodynamic parameters (25·C) of transfer from aqueous solution to aqueous salt solutions for 2-nitrobenzoic acid and 3-nitrobenzoic acid have been reported. The data have been rationalized on the basis of the localized hydrolysis model and the structure breaking action of ions of the electrolytes.

N0-[(E)-Furan-2-ylmethylidene]pyridine- 3-carbohydrazide

The title compound, C11H9N3O2, exists in the E conformation with respect to the azomethane C N bond, and has the keto form. There are two independent molecules in the asymmetric unit and each of these features a slight slanting of the pyridine and furan rings, which form a dihedral angle of 14.96 (10) in one of the molecules and 5.53 (10) in the other. The crystal structure is stabilized by N—H O and N—H N hydrogen bonds, weak C—H O and C—H N hydrogen bonds and C—H interactions and – interactions [shortest centroid–centroid distance = 3.7864 (15) A ° ].
