Weak interactions between resorcinarenes and diquaternary alkyl ammonium cations
2005
The interactions of resorcin[4]arenes 1 with alkyl ammonium cations bearing a 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) scaffold (32+, 42+ and 52+) were analyzed in the solid state by X-ray crystallography, in solution by 1H NMR spectroscopy, and in the gas phase by ESI-TOF mass spectrometry. The results are complemented with AM1 calculations and compared to previous reports on complexation studies of resorcinarenes with quaternary alkyl ammonium cations. The NMR titration results indicate that there are hardly any differences in the binding of the quaternary tetramethyl ammonium cation 2+ and the diquaternary N,N’-dimethyl DABCO dication 42+. The large N,N’-dibenzyl DABCO dication 52+ has two …
Increased sulfate availability in saline water promotes hydrogen sulfide production in fish organic waste
2020
The risk of hydrogen sulfide (H2S) production can be a challenge in marine land-based recirculating aquaculture systems (RAS). Hydrogen sulfide is a toxic gas that can cause massive fish mortality even at low concentrations, and in addition, serious odour problems in the surroundings. It is a bacterial by-product originating from the degradation of organic matter in sulfur-rich waters such as marine waters. In order to hinder H2S production in marine land-based RAS, more information on the H2S production conditions and the associated microbiology is needed. In this study, the production of H2S from rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) organic waste was examined using a novel H2S measurement …
1-{2-[4-(4-Nitrophenyl)piperazin-1-yl]ethyl}-4-aza-1-azoniabicyclo[2.2.2]octane iodide
2012
The title compound, C18H28N5O2+·I−, was observed as a main product in an intended 1:1 reaction between 4-iodonitrobenzene and 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO). In the reaction, DABCO undergoes a ring opening to yield a quaternary salt of DABCO and 1-ethyl-4-(4-nitrophenyl)piperazine with an iodide anion. The crystal structure determination was carried out as no crystal structure had been previously reported in the investigations describing the corresponding reaction with 4-chloronitrobenze. Indeed, the crystal structure of the title compound confirms the molecular composition proposed earlier for the analogous chloride salt. The cation conformation is similar to the …
Rheological Behaviour, Mechanical Properties and Processability of Biodegradable Polymer Systems for Film Blowing
2017
Films for agricultural or packaging applications are typically made of low density polyethylene (LDPE). They are produced through the film blowing process, which requires the use of polymers with suitable rheological properties. Furthermore, the short shelf-life which is often related to many packed products leads to huge amounts of plastic-based wastes. This suggests the use of biodegradable and/or compostable polymers in replacement for traditional ones. To this regard, only few data exist on the rheological properties of biodegradable polymers undergoing film blowing processing. In this work, a detailed investigation on the rheological, mechanical and processability behaviour of some bio…
Rheological Behavior Under Shear and Non-Isothermal Elongational Flow of Biodegradable Polymers for Foam Extrusion
2013
The production of many items, in particular for food packaging applications, is based on foam extrusion and thermoforming. These operations require the use of polymers which can grant some specific rheological properties, both under shear and elongational flow. In this work, the behavior of some biodegradable polymers [Mater-Bi® and poly(lactic acid)] under shear and non-isothermal elongational flow was investigated and compared with a traditional, non-biodegradable polymer, in order to assess their suitability for industrial-scale foam extrusion and thermoforming. The rheological characterization evidenced the differences between the different biodegradable polymers and the reference polys…
Synthesis of polycaprolactone by microwave irradiation ? an interesting route to synthesize this polymer via green chemistry
2003
Poly(e-caprolactone) has become an important biocompatible and biodegradable polymer. Indeed, due to its multiple biomedical applications, the synthesis of polycaprolactone has received increased attention in the past few decades. Moreover, microwave irradiation is a very clean modern technique widely used for green chemistry. Here, several polymers were synthesized by microwave irradiation, without any solvent, using nontoxic, biologically acceptable lanthanide halides as initiators. Reaction times varied between 2 and 90 min. The molecular weights of the obtained polymer products were between 3,000 and 16,000 g/mol. After polymerization, the polycaprolactone polymers were functionalized b…
Halogen Bonding Based “Catch and Release”: Reversible Solid State Entrapment of Elemental Iodine with Mono-Alkylated DABCO Salts
2012
The halogen bonding (XB) between elemental iodine (I2) and neutral 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) and its monoalkylated PF6– salts was studied by X-ray crystallographic, thermoanalytical, and computational methods. DABCO was found to form both 1:1 and 1:2 complexes with I2 showing an exceptionally strong halogen bond (ΔEcp = −73.0 kJ/mol) with extremely short N···I distance (2.37 A) in the 1:1 complex (1a). In the more favored 1:2 complex (1b), the XB interaction was found to be slightly weaker [ΔEcp = −64.4 kJ/mol and d(N···I) = 2.42 A] as compared to 1a. The monoalkylated DABCO salts (2PF6–7PF6) form corresponding 1:1 XB complexes with I2 {[2···I2]PF6–([7···I2]PF6} similarly to the…
C-Methyl resorcin[4]arene packing motifs with alkyl ammonium salts: From molecular capsules to channels and tubes
2005
A variety of packing motifs of C-methyl resorcinarene were obtained when complexed with small alkyl ammonium salts of different size and shape. Using bromide and chloride salts of the small quaternary alkyl ammonium cations, tetramethyl ammonium and dimethyldiethyl ammonium, leads to a grid-like packing of solvent mediated dimeric capsules while the use of salts of larger diquaternary cations bearing a 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) scaffold produces solvent/anion mediated chains and channels or tubular structures. The connecting interactions between resorcinarenes in each structure are hydrogen bonding and/or π⋯π interactions.
Bromide hydrogen oxalate salts with the diprotonated 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane counterion
2020
Abstract Two new salts composed of the diprotonated 1,4-diazabicyclo[2.2.2]octane (DABCO) molecule as the cations and bromide and hydrogen oxalate as the anions have been isolated and structurally characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis. The salt [DABCOH2]{[HC2O4][Br]} (1) crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group P212121 with a = 9.0809(7), b = 9.5156(7), c = 12.3558(9) Å, V = 1067.67(14) Å3 and Z = 4. The salt [DABCOH2]2{[HC2O4][Br]3}·H2O (2) crystallizes in the orthorhombic system, space group Pnma with a = 26.6554(17), b = 7.3711(4), c = 10.7421(7) Å, V = 2110.6(2) Å3 and Z = 4. The compounds were prepared from ethanolic solutions of [DABCOH2][HC2O4]2 (L 1 ) and ZnBr2 in …
Rheological and mechanical properties of biodegradable nanocomposites
2018
Polymer nanocomposites have gained huge interest over the last decade. However, traditional thermoplastic nanocomposites do not match the rising concern about environmental issues. Therefore, during the last years, the search for biodegradable polymer nanocomposites is gaining importance. Most of biobased (i.e. based on biodegradable/bioderived polymer matrices) nanocomposites have poly(lactic acid), PLA, as matrix. However, it is of clear interest to take into account also different biobased polymer matrices, such as MaterBi. In this work, we prepared bionanocomposites containing MaterBi or a PLA-based polymer matrix, with two different kinds of nanofillers (organomodified clay and nanosiz…
