Anew amperometric ethanol biosensor was fabricated for sensitive and rapid analysis of ethanol. For this purpose, a novel monomer, 9-methyl-9H-carbazole-3-carbohydrazine (MCCH), was designed and electrochemically polymerized on a graphite electrode to achieve a conducting and effective immobilization matrix for enzyme immobilization. Due to the presence of amino groups in the structure of conducting polymer, alcohol oxidase molecules were covalently immobilized onto the functional polymer which brought an effective and long-life analysis of the substrate, ethanol. N-(3-Dimethylaminopropyl)-N'-ethylcarbodiimide hydrochloride (EDC)/N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS) chemistry was used for linking carboxylic acid groups of the enzyme molecules with amino groups of the polymer. After successful immobilization, amperometric biosensor responses were recorded at 0.7V vs. Ag/AgCl in phosphate buffer (pH 7.0). K-M(app) (8.74 mM), I-max (5.94 mu A), LOD (0.131 mM) and sensitivity (4.79 mu A mM(-1) cm(-2)) values were determined. Finally, the prepared biosensor was successfully applied for determination of ethanol content in alcoholic beverages. (C) 2013 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

DFT guided substitution effect on azomethine reactive center in newly synthesized Schiff base aromatic scaffolds; syntheses, characterization, single crystal XRD, Hirshfeld surface and crystal void analyses

Asma Khurshid, Aamer Saeed, Mauricio F. Erben, Tuncer Hokelek, Erum Jabeen

Summary: This study aims to investigate the effect of substitution on the reactivity of newly synthesized crystalline azomethine linked aromatic compounds/Schiff bases. Crystalline compounds were obtained in good yields through condensation reaction between 2-iodo-4-chloro substituted aniline and suitably substituted aromatic aldehydes. The reactivity of the azomethine pharmacophore was explained based on the electronic features of the attached substituents. DFT calculations and frontier molecular orbital calculations were used to support the reactivity profile and understand the mechanistic aspects.

Green synthesis, X-ray crystallography, DFT and Hirshfeld analysis of C-2 symmetric 1,3-bis(4-ethylphenyl)triaz-1-ene

Aamer Saeed, Hafiza Zara Tariq, Ghulam Shabir, Tuncer Hokelek, Michael Bolte, Syeda Abida Ejaz, Aftab Ahmed

Summary: A green synthesis method was used to successfully synthesize the novel symmetrical molecule 1,3-bis(4-ethylphenyl)triazene (3) via the self-coupling of 4-ethylaniline in water at room temperature. The structure of 3 was determined using spectroscopic data, elemental analysis, and single crystal X-ray crystallography. The crystal structure of 3 was found to be stabilized by intermolecular hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions. The evaluation of the energy frameworks indicated that dispersion energy played a dominant role in the stabilization of the crystal packing. The HOMO and LUMO energies were determined to be -0.19401 and -0.5546, respectively. (C) 2022 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Nohaila Rharmili, Omar Abdellaoui, Amal Haoudi, Joel T. Mague, Tuncer Hokelek, Fouad Ouazzani Chahdi, Youssef Kandri Rodi, Ahmed Mazzah, Nada Kheira Sebbar

Summary: The title compound possesses an almost planar indoline portion and an all-trans conformation for the 12-bromododecyl chain, except for the gauche terminal C-C-C-Br fragment. The crystal structure forms a micellar-like structure through C-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds and pi-stacking interactions between the indolinedione head groups and intercalation of the 12-bromododecyl tails. The most important contributions for crystal packing come from H...H (58.9%), H center dot center dot center dot O/O center dot center dot center dot H (17.9%), and H center dot center dot center dot Br/Br center dot center dot center dot H (9.5%) contacts, as indicated by Hirshfeld surface analysis. A density functional theory (DFT) optimized structure at the B3LYP/6-311 G(d,p) level agrees well with the experimentally determined molecular structure in the solid state.
