RESUMO
This work describes the development of a novel fluorescence sensor based on magnesium/S@g-C3N4 nanosheets for selective detection of copper (Cu2+) ions in water. Mg/S@g-C3N4 nanosheets were prepared by the polycondensation technique and investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), ATR-FTIR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), surface area (BET), and UV-Vis optical absorption measurements. XRD and ATR-FTIR analysis showed the characteristic peaks for S@g-C3N4. The broad full width at half maximum (0.056 radians) implies a smaller crystallite size, representing smaller Mg/S@g-C3N4 sheets. SEM micrograph showed non-exfoliated nanosheets with flake-like structures. The EDS mapping confirmed the presence of magnesium, carbon, nitrogen, and sulfur throughout the nanosheets. The Mg/S@g-C3N4 nanosheets possess a high surface area of 40 m2/g and mesopores within the nanosheets, with a size of 1.57 nm. The band gap of the Mg/S@g-C3N4 nanosheet was estimated to be 3.0 eV. The sensor exhibits a strong quenching response towards Cu2+ ions, with a decrease in fluorescence intensity as the concentration of Cu2+ increased from 1 µM to 20 µM. The Stern-Volmer quenching constant (KSV) showed a relatively high value of 185053 M-1. The estimated value of LOD by the Mg/S@g-C3N4 sensor for Cu2+ was 16.2 nM. The sensor offered high sensitivity and selectivity for Cu2+ detection over other heavy metals.
RESUMO
The novel and effective diastereoselective synthesis of multifunctionalized dihydropyridones, including CF3-substituted derivatives, has been developed on the basis of the piperidine-promoted domino reaction of carbamoylated enaminones with aldehydes. The products have been prepared in 38-90% yields and can be easily isolated by crystallization. Tautomerism, epimerization, and atropisomerism of dihydropyridones have been studied. The use of the resulting dihydropyridones in the synthesis of 1,2,6-trisubstituted 4-pyridone-3-carboxamides has been demonstrated via oxidative aromatization initiated by iodine.
RESUMO
A number of new 2,6-didisubstituted pyrimidine, pyrazoline, and pyran derivatives were synthesized starting from their chalcone derivative. The synthesized compounds displayed different degrees of antimicrobial activity against Bscillus subtilis (Gram-positive), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (Gram-negative), and Streptomyces species (Actinomycetes).
