Synthesis and Properties of Quaternary Ammonium Gemini Surfactants with Hydroxyethyl at Head Groups

A series of cationic gemini surfactants CmH2m + 1N+(CH2CH2OH)2?(CH2)s?N+(CH2CH2OH)2CmH2m + 1 2Br?, referred to as m-s-m (OH) (m = 8,10,12, s = 3,4), were prepared by quaternization of dihydroxyethyl tertiary amines with dibromoalkane. The dihydroxyethyl tertiary amines were synthesized by nucleophilic substitution of diethanolamine with bromoalkane. The characterization of the m-s-m (OH) surfactants was performed using 1H NMR and MS. The surface activities and aggregation behavior in aqueous solution of the m-s-m (OH) surfactants were studied using surface tension measurements, dynamic light scattering (DLS), and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). The surface tension and critical micellar concentration of these surfactants in aqueous solution decreased dramatically due to the introduction of hydroxyethyl at the head group. The micelles and/or vesicles formed in the aqueous solution of m-s-m (OH) surfactants were strongly dependent upon the lengths of spacer chains and carbon chains. The number of vesicles increases and that of micelles decreases when the lengths of spacer chains and carbon chains increase.

Alkynyl quaternary ammonium salt multifunctional surfactants and preparation method thereof

The invention discloses a series of alkynyl quaternary ammonium salt multifunctional surfactants and a preparation method thereof. A structural formula of quaternary ammonium salt is shown in the description, wherein R represents a C4-C22 linear, branched or cycloalkyl, aryl or alkenyl group. The preparation method comprises the following steps: (1) carrying out alkylation on ethanol amine under alkaline and acetonitrile reflux conditions by virtue of bromo-hydrocarbon; and (2) carrying out further alkylation on tertiary amine under an ethanol reflux condition by virtue of propargyl bromide, so as to obtain alkynyl quaternary ammonium salt, namely reddish brown semitransparent viscous liquid or solid. The alkynyl quaternary ammonium salt multifunctional surfactants have very high surface activity, good corrosion resistance and excellent viscoelasticity, the preparation method is simple and feasible, the raw material cost is low, the operation is easy, the yield is high, and the surfactants are environmentally friendly.

Substitution effect, absorption, and fluorescence behaviors of 11,12-benzo-1,7,10,13-tetraoxa-4-azacyclopentadec-11-ene (Benzoaza-15-crown-5) derivatives upon cation complexation in solvent extraction

Substitution effect, absorption, and fluorescence behaviors of some benzoaza-15-crown-5 derivatives upon cation complexation in solvent extraction were studied. The introduction of a substituent on the nitrogen atom in benzoaza-15-crown-5 enhanced extractabilities in the solvent extraction of aqueous alkali metal picrates. The nondonating substituents raised the cation selectivity for Na+ over K+, but the donating substituents reduced the cation selectivity. The absorption and fluorescence spectral behavior was different with the alkali metal cations.

Photoactive chemosensors 3: A unique case of fluorescence enhancement with Cu(II)

Chemosensor (4a) shows fluorescence enhancement with Cu(II) and can estimate 1-300 μM Cu(II) by using fluorescence (1-20 μM) and UV-Vis (10-300 μM) spectroscopic techniques. Ni(II), Cd(II), Zn(II), Ag(I) and Hg(II) do not interfere in fluorescence studies and only Ag(I) and Hg(II) interfere in UV-Vis studies.

Phosphorous amine lubricant additives

Lubricant additives are produced by reacting an alkoxylated amine with phosphorous acid. The additives preferably also contain a boron moiety which is reacted with the phosphorous acid and amine, preferably in a one step reaction. More preferably, a mono-functional alcohol or a long-chain aliphatic carboxylic acid is added to this mixture. The additives are particularly useful in metal working oils and particularly as extreme pressure additives to replace the currently used chlorinated paraffin additives.

Synthesis and Mesogenic Properties of N-n-alkyl-N'-(4-n-Pentyloxyphenyl)-Piperazines

The N-n-alkyl-N'-(4-n-pentyloxyphenyl)-piperazines (4) exhibit ordered smectic phases at temperatures below 100 deg C.For 3, 4, 5 and 6 carbons in the alkyl chain, two smectic phases are present and for 7, 8 and 9 carbons only one smectic phase is present.The ΔH values for 4, 5, 6 and 7 carbons are anomalous.From optical and X-ray data, the smectic phases are identified as probably smectic E and B phases.
