    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.

    (Springer, 2021) Ucar, Asuman; Findik, Mukerrem; Kuzu, Muslum; Pehlivanoglu, Suray; Sayin, Ulku; Sayin, Zafer; Akgemci, Emine Guler
    Metal complexes of thiosemicarbazones have been receiving considerable attention in biological applications such as antimicrobial and anticancer therapies. In this work, Co(II), Zn(II) and Mn(II) complexes of 2-hydroxy-5-methoxyacetophenone thiosemicarbazone (HMAT) were synthesized for the first time and characterized by EPR, FT-IR, NMR, UV-Vis spectroscopies, TG/DSC and elemental analysis. X-ray powder diffraction analysis was carried out for Zn(II) complex. HMAT and its Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Mn(II) complexes were tested as enzyme inhibitory agents. All compounds are effective inhibitor of cytosolic carbonic anhydrase I and II isoforms (hCA I and II) enzymes. IC(50)values of HMAT and its Cu(II), Co(II), Zn(II) and Mn(II) complexes were determined as 93.35, 324.46, 25.67, 1.06 and 22.36 mu M for CA I isozyme and 99.02, 86.64, 57.76, 10.34 and 36.48 mu M for CA II isozyme, respectively. The evaluation of potential cytotoxic effects of the compounds was performed against normal epithelial breast mammary gland CRL-4010, estrogen-positive low metastatic MCF-7 and triple negative highly metastatic MDA-MB-231 breast adenocarcinoma cell lines by MTT assay. The results showed that the tested metal complexes have high cytotoxic effects than their ligand molecule. In particular, the Cu(II) complex displayed preciously high cytotoxic properties different from the others. Given these facts, the Cu(II) complex could be debated as potential chemotherapeutic molecule against drug-resistant breast cancer cells. Minimum inhibitory concentrations of the compounds against the test organisms were also detected for the microbiological analysis.

    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.

    Self-assembly of a new building block of {BMo12O40} with excellent catalytic activity for methylene blue
    (Pergamon-Elsevier Science Ltd, 2019) Findik, Mukerrem; Ucar, Asuman; Colak, Alper Tolga; Sahin, Onur; Bingol, Haluk; Sayin, Ulku; Kocak, Nuriye
    A novel organic-inorganic hybrid of 2,2'-bipyridyl (2,2'-bipy) linked covalently with the first inorganic framework based on boron-containing Keggin-type heteropolymolybdate anion [BMo12O40](5-) has been hydrothermally synthesized in aqueous solution. The crystal structure was fully characterized by elemental analyses, single crystal X-ray diffraction, Fourier-transform infrared spectrum (FT-IR), powder X-ray diffraction (XRD), Ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy (UV-Vis) and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) analysis. The catalytic performance of the synthesized catalyst was studied in degradation of methylene blue (MB) at ambient temperature. The catalyst exhibited excellent degradation against MB with a rate constant of 0.506/m, which was much higher than those by other polyoxometalate catalysts. Moreover, it was found to be easily separated from the reaction solution and recycled up to five times without significant loss of degradation activity. (C) 2019 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

    Synthesis of anti-4-phenoxyphenylaminoglyoxime and its some transition metal complexes: Spectral, DFT, electrochemical and anticancer activity studies
    (Elsevier, 2020) Findik, Mukerrem; Ucar, Asuman; Turkkan, Ercan; Pehlivanoglu, Suray; Ozcan, Emine
    anti-4-phenoxyphenylaminoglyoxime (LH2) was synthesized starting from 4-aminodiphenylether and anti-chloroglyoxime in absolute ethanol. Then, mononuclear complexes [Ni(II) and Cu(II)] of LH2 were synthesized with the metal:ligand ratio of 1:2. The LH2 and its complexes [Ni(LH)(2) and Cu(LH)(2)] were characterized by elemental analysis, FT-IR, Raman, UV-vis, thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR, heteronuclear multiple bond correlation (HMBC) spectroscopy and theoretical DFT studies. Also, redox properties of the ligand and its complexes were investigated by cyclic voltammetry in DMSO solution at room temperature. Conformational space was scanned with molecular mechanic simulations and then the possible stable conformers of LH2 ligand were determined by B3LYP/6-311++G (d,p) level calculations. The Ni(LH)(2) and Cu(LH)(2) metal complexes were modeled theoretically using B3LYP/LanL2DZ level. The theoretical vibrational frequencies were calculated by using optimization calculation levels. The NMR parameters of LH2 ligand, Cu(LH)(2) and Ni(LH)(2) metal complexes were calculated at mPW1PW91/6-311 + G (2d,p) level. Theoretically calculated values were compared with the related experimental values. The DFT calculation results have been used to predict and interpret the molecular structures of LH2 ligand and its complexes. The geometry around nickel in Ni(LH)(2) and around cupper in Cu(LH)(2) complex are almost square planar. In addition, we evaluated the efficacy of LH2 ligand and its Ni(LH)(2) and Cu(LH)(2) complexes in the breast adenocarcinoma cell line (MCF7). Our data showed that the metal compounds affect positively the cytotoxic activity of the ligand (LH2). The metal complexes, especially Ni(LH)(2) complex, exhibited noteworthy biological activity against the viability of MCF7 cells. (C) 2020 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
