Optical absorption and fluorescence emission spectra of 2,3-bis(chloromethyl)-1,4-anthraquinone (DCMAQ) in single solvents namely, carbon tetrachloride, acetonitrile, chloroform, propan-2-ol and its binary mixtures [carbon tetrachloride/chloroform, chloroform/acetonitrile, chloroform/propan-2-ol] have been investigated. The preferential solvation of DCMAQ in above mixtures has been studied by monitoring the absorption and fluorescence spectra of DCMAQ. The spectral features indicate that DCMAQ is preferentially solvated by CHCl(3) in the above mixtures. This can be elucidated from the local mole fraction, non-linearity in transition energy plot, preferential solvation index (delta (s2)) and (f2/f1) values. Molecular recognition properties of p-tert-butylcalix[4]arene (tBC) to DCMAQ via hydrogen bonding and pi-pi interaction were sensed successfully on the basis of absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopies, by which the stoichiometry ratio and the binding constant of the tBC-DCMAQ complex were determined.

The acidity constants of Alizarine Red S were determined spectrophotometrically at 25 degrees C and at constant ionic strength 0.1 M (KNO3) in pure water as well as in aqueous media containing variable mole percentages (5-70%) of organic solvents. The organic solvents used were methanol, ethanol, N,N-dimethyl formamide (DMF), dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetonitrile and dioxan. The acidity constants of all related equilibria are estimated using the whole spectral fitting of the collected data to an established factor analysis model. DATAN program was applied for determining of acidity constants and pure spectra of different form of Alizarine Red S. The obtained results indicated that acidity constants decrease as the content of an organic solvent in the medium increases. There are linear relationship between acidity constants and the mole fraction of various organic solvents in the solvent mixtures. Effect of various solvents on acidity constants and pure spectrum of each component are also discussed.

The role of solute-solvent and solvent-solvent interaction on the preferential solvation characteristics of 2,6-diaminoanthraquinone (DAAQ) has been analysed by monitoring the optical absorption and fluorescence emission spectra. Binary mixtures consist of dimethylformamide (DMF)-ethanol (EtOH), DMF-dimelthylsulfoxide (DMSO), benzene (BZ)-DMF and acetonitrile (ACN)-DMF. The optical absorption spectra maximum and emission spectra maximum of DAAQ show the changes with varying the solvents and change in the composition in the case of binary mixtures. Non-ideal solvation characteristics are observed in all binary mixtures. It is found that at certain concentrations two mixed solvents interact to form a common structure with a nu(12) (wave number in cm(-1)) value not always intermediate (nu(1) and nu(2)) between the values of the solvents mixed. Synergistic effect is observed in the case of DMF-EtOH mixtures. The preferential solvation parameters local mole fraction X(2)(L), solvation index delta(S2), exchange constant K(12) are calculated in all binary mixtures expect in the case of DMF-BZ mixture and DMF-EtOH mixture in the ground state. We have also monitored excitation wavelength effect on the probe molecule in aprotic polar and protic polar solvents.

Solvation characteristics of 1,4-dihydroxy-2,3-dimethyl-9,10-anthraquinone (1) in pure and binary solvent mixtures have been studied by UV-vis absorption spectroscopy and laser-induced fluorescence techniques. The binary solvent mixtures used as CCl(4) (tetrachloromethane)-DMF (N,N-dimethylformamide), AN (acetonitrile)-DMSO (dimethylsulfoxide), CHCl(3) (chloroform)-DMSO, CHCl(3)-MeOH (methanol), and MeOH-DMSO. The longest wavelength band of 1 has been studied in pure solvents as well as in binary solvent mixtures as a function of the bulk mole fraction. The Vis absorption band maxima show an unusual blue shift with increasing solvent polarity. The emission maxima of 1 show changes with varying the pure solvents and the composition in the case of binary solvent mixtures. Non-ideal solvation characteristics are observed in all binary solvent mixtures. It has been observed that the quantity [nu (12)-(X(1)nu (1)+X(2)nu (2))] serves as a measure of the extent of preferential solvation, where nu and X are the position of band maximum in wavenumbers (cm(-1)) and the bulk mole fraction values, respectively. The preferential solvation parameters local mole fraction (X(2)(L)), solvation index (delta(s2)), and exchange constant (k(12)) are evaluated.

Atmospheric pressure photoionization (APPI) as an interface for the high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC)-tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS) system was employed for the direct determination of 17alpha-ethinylestradiol (EE(2)) in the incubation mixtures to support in vitro hepatic clearance studies. For the APPI source, the radical cation of the analyte via charge exchange with the dopant radical cation was used for the detection of EE(2) in the positive ion mode. It was demonstrated that the major signals of EE(2) in the acetonitrile/water mobile phase were substantially increased by replacing toluene with anisole as the dopant. The effects of several experimental conditions on the photoionization efficiency of EE(2) in the dopant-assisted APPI source were explored. Electrospray ionization (ESI) source was also suitable for the analysis of the analyte; however, ESI required a derivatization step prior to analysis. The applicability of the proposed HPLC-APPI-MS/MS approach following a protein precipitation procedure for the determination of EE(2) at low nano-mole levels was examined with respect to assay specificity and linearity. The assay results obtained by both HPLC-APPI-MS/MS and HPLC-ESI-MS/MS methods were in good agreement.

The molar transition energy (E(T)) polarity values for the solvatochromic probes 2,6-diphenyl-4-(2,4,6-triphenylpyridinium)phenolate (1), 4[(1-methyl-4-(1H)-pyridinylidene)-ethylidene]-2,5-cyclohexadien-1-one (2), and 4-[4-(dimethylamino)styryl]-1-methylpyridinium iodide (3) were collected in binary mixtures comprising chloroform and a hydrogen-bond accepting (HBA) solvent [dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF), N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMA), acetone or acetonitrile], aiming to investigate the ability of the chlorinated component to act as hydrogen-bond donating (HBD) solvent. Plots of E(T) as a function of X(2), the mole fraction of chloroform, were obtained and the data were analysed to investigate the preferential solvation (PS) of each probe in terms of both solute-solvent and solvent-solvent interactions. For dyes 1 and 2 a strong synergistic behavior was observed for all mixtures studied, indicating that the dyes are preferentially solvated by complexes formed through hydrogen bonding between chloroform and the HBA component in the mixtures. A study of 1 in deuterated chloroform with an HBA component (DMF and DMA) demonstrated that while almost no differences occur with the DMF mixtures, the presence of deuterated chloroform in its mixtures with DMA increases the synergistic effect, suggesting that it interacts more strongly with DMA, making its mixtures more polar. These data were successfully fitted to a model based on solvent-exchange equilibria. The features of the mixtures with dye 3 revealed a very different profile in comparison with the other two dyes, which suggests that in mixtures containing chloroform, the microenvironment of the dye seems to be important in determining the contribution of the structure resonances responsible for the stability of the dye.

A rapid and sensitive spectrophotometrc method has been developed for the microdetermination of some phenothiazine derivatives as the pure substances and in different dosage forms. The method depends on the formation of stable donor-acceptor complexes between phenothiazines and chloranilic acid in an acetonitrile-2-propanol solvent mixture. The resulting intensely purple chloranilic acid radical anion possesses a characteristic absorption maximum at 515 nm. Beer's law is obeyed over the concentration ranges 1-6, 1-10 and 5-30 mug ml for prochlorperazine dimaleate, trifluoperazine dihydrochloride and thiethylperazine dihydrochloride, with apparent molar absorptivities of 7.76 x 10(4), 1.95 x 10(4) and 6.64 x 10(3) 1. mole(-1).cm(-1), respectively. Statistical comparison of the results with those of an official method shows excellent agreement and indicates no significant difference in precision.

Non ideality of acetonitrile-water mixtures was studied from data on the excess of molar volumes and viscosities. pH and autoprotolisis constants were evaluated at the standard state of the mixed solvent from titrations of a strong acid with a strong base. In order to illustrate the evaluation of the aqueous ionisation constant of water insoluble compounds from pH titrations in ACN-water mixtures, a typical insoluble arylpropionic acid, ketoprofen, was chosen. Ketoprofen was titrated in mixtures from 10 to 70% w/w of acetonitrile against a strong base. From the titration data, the ionisation constant of ketoprofen was evaluated at the standard state of the solvent mixture (pK(a)(*)). Aqueous pK(a) was determined by extrapolation, as the intercept of the plot of pK(a)(*) versus ACN mole fraction.

Highly coloured Janovsky complexes have been known for over 120 years, being used in many colourimetric analytical procedures. In this present study, two novel and stable nitrocyclohexadienyl spirobicyclic, zwitterionic Janovsky anionic hydantoin sigma-complexes, rac-1,3-diisopropyl-6-nitro-2,4-dioxo-1,3-diazaspiro[4.5]deca-6,9-dien-8-ylideneazinate, ammonium internal salt (1) and 1,3-diisopropyl-2,4-dioxo-1,3-diazaspiro[4.5]deca-6,9-dien-8-ylideneazinate, ammonium internal salt (2) have been prepared and characterised by NMR, electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS) and UV/visible methods. For the p-mononitro-substituted complex (2), we discovered chemical exchange behaviour using 1D saturation transfer and 2D exchange spectroscopy (EXSY) (1)H NMR techniques. The coalescence temperature was determined to be 62 degrees C in d(3)-acetonitrile. Analysis of these data provided a Gibbs free energy of activation, DeltaG double dagger, of + 67 kJ mole(-1), a rate constant, k, coalescence of 220 Hz and an equilibrium constant, K(eqm), of 0.98 as estimates of the exchange process in this solvent. Of the two mechanisms proposed for this fluxional behaviour, ring opening to a substituted benzene or proton exchange, a further theoretical modelling study of 1D (1)H NMR spectra was able to confirm that simple proton exchange between the two nitrogen sites of the hydantoin ring provided an accurate simulation of the observed experimental evidence. Interestingly, the o,p-dinitro-substituted complex (1) did not show any chemical exchange behaviour up to 150 degrees C in d(3)-acetonitrile (to 75 degrees C) and d(6)-dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO). Molecular modelling at the MM2 level suggests that steric collisions of an N-acyl isopropyl substituent of the hydantoin ring with the ortho-nitro group of the spirofused cyclohexadienyl ring prevents the proposed proton exchange mechanism occurring in this case.

The pyrolysis of pyrrole (6.46% pyrrole in argon) has been performed with the tunable synchrotron vacuum ultraviolet (VUV) photoionization and molecular-beam mass spectrometry (MBMS) technique. The experiment was carried out over the temperature range of 1260-1710 K at a pressure of 267 Pa. About 30 intermediates have been identified by near-threshold measurements of photoionization mass spectra, and the corresponding mole fractions versus temperatures have been obtained. Moreover, the isomers of some pyrolysis products have been identified by the measurement of photoionization efficiency spectrum. The major products are H(2), C(2)H(2), HCN, C(3)H(4) (propyne), and C(2)H(3)N (acetonitrile). Meanwhile, some new intermediates, such as C(4)H(4)N (cyanoallyl radical) and C(2)H(2)N (cyanomethyl radical), have been determined. The major pyrolysis channels have been provided with the high-level ab initio G3B3 calculation and are well consistent with the experimental observation. The formation pathway of HCN via the cyclic carbene tautomer has been proved to be the lowest formation pathway, which is in accordance with previous theoretical work. The potential pathways of the early formed C(4)H(4)N species together with their subsequent consumption to C(2)H(2)N and C(2)H(2) have been discussed in detail. Also, the formation pathways of the major products of C(2)H(3)N and C(2)H(2) have been investigated as well.
