Conductometric investigation of nano MnSO4 association parameters and complex formation with glycylglycine in aqueous and methanol-water mixtures: Thermodynamic parameters and potential applications.

This study aimed to investigate the ion pair association values and association parameters of nano MnSO4 in water and methanol-water mixtures (20 % and 40 % methanol by mass percentage) at varying temperatures (298.15, 303.15, 308.15, and 313.15 K) using the conductometric technique. Additionally, the parameters for complex formation between nano MnSO4 and glycylglycine as a ligand were determined. The focus was on elucidating the thermodynamic formation parameters for the nano Mn2+-glycylglycine interaction, with particular emphasis on comparing the 1: 1 and 1: 2 (M: L) complexes to understand the complexation behavior more comprehensively. The results indicated that the complexation process was spontaneous, as evidenced by negative ΔGf (formation free energy change) values, which increased with temperature, highlighting the enhanced spontaneity of the process. The findings provide valuable insights into designing new materials and procedures by enhancing our understanding of the complexation behavior of nano MnSO4 with ligands like glycylglycine, thus contributing to advancements in various applications such as chemical synthesis, medicines, and environmental remediation. By elucidating the thermodynamic aspects of these interactions, the study aimed to provide valuable information that could be utilized in practical applications and further research endeavors.

Effect of indomethacin on the electrical conductance and electrochemical voltammetry of copper chloride in methanol, ethanol, and their binary mixture with water.

This study investigated the physicochemical properties of the interaction of indomethacin and copper chloride using the electrical conductance measurement in methanol, ethanol, and their binary mixture with water at room temperature (298.15 K), to determine the solvation behavior, redox behavior, and kinetics. The association parameters were computed using the Fuoss-Hsia-Fernández-Prini and Fuoss-Shedlovsky models. The standard Gibbs energy for association (ΔGoA), Walden product (Λoηo), and hydrodynamic radii (RH) were calculated to study the interaction of indomethacin and copper chloride. On the other hand, cyclic voltammetry examines the electrochemical redox behavior of copper chloride using a gold electrode and its interactions with indomethacin. Results showed changes in peak potentials and currents density in the presence of indomethacin, indicating alterations in redox behavior and reaction rates. Overall, this research can be valuable in understanding the electrochemical properties and potential applications of indomethacin and copper chloride, as well as in developing new drugs or therapeutic agents, which could have has implications in various fields, including drug development, electrochemistry, and materials science.

A Physical-Chemical Study of the Interference of Ceftriaxone Antibiotic with Copper Chloride Salt.

The nano-CuCl2.2H2O salt was prepared by the ball milling method. The association parameters for bulk and nano-CuCl2 salts in H2O are estimated at different temperatures using the conductivity method by applying the Fuoss-Shedlovsky equation and it was higher for nano-CuCl2 than bulk CuCl2 salt. The interaction between the cation (Cu2+) and ligand (ceftriaxone) in H2O was determined also by the conductometric method. Two stoichiometric complexes 1/2 and 1/1 (M/L) are estimated and follow the order K f (1/1) > K f (1 : 2) and ∆G f (1/1) > ∆G f (1/2) for (M : L) (in negative values) indicate the favorable of formation of (1/1) complex compared to the (1 : 2) complex. The Gibbs free energies change was increased in negative signs with increasing the temperature. The antimicrobial activities of CFT, bulk Cu-CFT complex, and nano-Cu-CFT complex were studied on LB agar by the disc diffusion technique against clinical isolates of gram-negative bacteria (Klebsiella pneumonia and Pseudomonas aeruginosa) and Fungi (Candida albicans). It was observed that (CFT) has a higher zone of inhibition and antibacterial activity than that of bulk and nano-Cu-CFT complexes in Klebsiella pneumonia and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (gram-negative bacteria). The nano-Cu-CFT complex showed a higher clear zone of inhibition and antifungal activity against candida than bulk Cu-CFT complex while the absence of the inhibition zone in CFT, so nano-Cu-CFT complex, can be used as an antifungal drug.
