    Catalytic degradation of organic dye using reduced graphene oxide-polyoxometalate nanocomposite
    (ELSEVIER SCIENCE SA, 2017) Ucar, Asuman; Findik, Mukerrem; Gubbuk, I. Hilal; Kocak, Nuriye; Bingol, Haluk
    Silicotungstic acid (SiW) decorated reduced graphene oxide (rGO) nanocomposite (rGO-SiW) has been prepared and evaluated as a heterogeneous nanocatalyst for the degradation reactions of methylene blue (MB) and rhodamine B (RhB). The structural and morphological properties of rGO-SiW nanocomposite were investigated by various techniques such as Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR), Raman spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and Scanning electron microscope (SEM), which revealed the homogeneous and noncovalent anchoring of SiW nanoparticles on rGO sheets. The catalytic activity of rGO-SiW nanocomposite on the degradations of MB and RhB has been monitored using UV-visible absorption spectrometry in the presence of NaBH4 as the reducing agent at room temperature in water. The reduction reactions followed pseudo-first order kinetics and degradation were achieved in 34 min for MB and 81 min for RhB using rGO-SiW as catalysts. (C) 2017 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

    Fluorogenic ferrocenyl Schiff base for Zn2+ and Cd2+ detection
    (SPRINGER, 2017) Findik, Mukerrem; Ucar, Asuman; Bingol, Haluk; Guler, Ersin; Ozcan, Emine
    A novel sensor based on acetylferrocene-containing Schiff base (ASB) was synthesized by reaction of alpha-chloroacetylferrocene and N-(salicylidene)-l-valinmethylester. The structure of the compound was characterized by using elemental analysis and Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR), H-1 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), and C-13 NMR spectroscopy. Its metal-cation-sensing properties were investigated spectrofluorometrically. ASB served as selective chemosensor for Zn2+ and Cd2+ towards alkali, alkaline-earth, and various heavy-metal ions. It showed significant fluorescence enhancement for Zn2+ and Cd2+ ions, stemming from C=N isomerization and chelation-enhanced fluorescence. The binding modes of the complexes were determined to have 1:1 complexation stoichiometry, and the binding constants were calculated as (6.93 +/- 0.25) x 10(6) M-1 for ASB center dot Zn (2+) and (7.49 +/- 0.18) x 10(5) M-1 for ASB center dot Cd (2+) using the nonlinear curve-fitting method.

    Organometallic chiral Schiff base for enantio-selective fluorescent recognition of methionine
    (SPRINGER INTERNATIONAL PUBLISHING AG, 2017) Ucar, Asuman; Findik, Mukerrem; Bingol, Haluk; Guler, Ersin; Ozcan, Emine
    Herein, the synthesis and characterization of a novel chiral Schiff bases derived from ferrocene, coded as 3, have been reported. The sensing behavior of the synthesized compound has been examined towards the enantiomers of some amino acids (methionine, alanine, serine, histidine, and threonine) by spectrofluorimetric method. The fluorescence response of compound 3 showed noticeable enhancement upon addition of d-methionine compared to l-methionine and kept nearly linear correlation with the concentration of d-methionine. The value of enantiomeric fluorescence difference ratio (ef) has been determined to be 1.54 when d - and l- methionine amount is 100 times more than compound 3. The results showed that the compound 3 can be used as a sensor for enantio-selective recognition of d-methionine.
