A series of gemini n-alkylphenol polyoxyethylene surfactants (GAP) were successfully synthesized and their molecular structure were confirmed by NMR and FTIR spectrum. Using the same synthesis route, a Gemini nonylphenol polyoxyethylene surfactant (GNP) was synthesized using an industrial nonylphenol product and paraformaldehyde, and its molecular structure was also characterized by 1H-NMR and FTIR spectra. The optimal reaction conditions were established. The critical micelle concentration (CMC) values of GAP were determined by means of Wilhelmy plate method and steady-state fluorescence probe method. The experimental results show how the lengths of the hydrophilic polyoxyethylene chain and the hydrophobic tail alter the CMC values. The CMC values of the GAP are found to be much lower than those of corresponding conventional single tail nonionic surfactants of the polyethoxylated alkylphenol type, which indicates that the gemini species exhibit a better surface activity.

Esterification of various carboxylic acids with phenol and alcohols has been achieved using acid activated Indian bentonite (AAIB) as catalyst. The catalyst is versatile, and the reaction is found to work well for primary, secondary and tertiary alcohols. The yields are very good under specific reaction conditions.

On the premise that it is necessary to develop antiestrogens with a higher cytotoxic component in order to reduce the risks of the development of heterogeneous malignant cell populations in breast cancer, we studied a novel series of basic diphenylethylenes, for the most part devoid of estrogenic activity, with low antiestrogenicity but much enhanced cytotoxicity compared to the reference drug tamoxifen. The main structural features associated with cytotoxicity were E isomery, substituents of five to eight carbons on the ethylene bond, and dibasicity.

The hydrolytic behavior of 21 para-substituted phenyl esters of n-alkanoic acids (n-X) with various chain lengths in 60:40 (Φ=0.60), 50:50 (Φ=0.50), and 40:60 v/v (Φ=0.40) Me2SO-H2O mixtures was studied.Four new sets of experimental results which include departure from Hammett correlation for N-hexadecanoates (16-X), substantial differences in activation parameters, and effects of amylose on the kinetic parameters and on the activation parameters are presented along lines of reasoning mentioned by previous authors.These data establish that the aggregation and self-coiling of the n-alkanoate chain actually exist under experimental conditions.
