All of the computations were done by density functional theory method in the B3LYP/6-31G(d) level of theory and in the aqueous phase. The obtained enthalpy changes (ΔH<sub>ad</sub>), Gibbs free energy variations (ΔG<sub>ad</sub>) and thermodynamic equilibrium constants (K<sub>th</sub>) indicated that quetiapine interaction with boron nitride nanocage is exothermic, spontaneous, irreversible and experimentally feasible. The bond lengths between the adsorbent and the adsorbate and adsorption energy values showed quetiapine interaction with B<sub>12</sub>N<sub>12 </sub>is a chemisorption. The temperature was also optimized and the findings revealed 298.15 K is the best temperature for quetiapine adsorption on the B<sub>12</sub>N<sub>12</sub> surface. The DOS spectrums showed B<sub>12</sub>N<sub>12 </sub>is an appropriate electroactive recognition for fabrication of new quetiapine electrochemical sensors. The specific heat capacity values (C<sub>V</sub>) proved the thermal conductivity of quetiapine has improved after its interaction with the nanostructure. Some structural parameters including energy gap, chemical hardness, chemical potential, electrophilicity, maximum transferred charge, zero-point energy and dipole moment were also calculated and discussed in details.</span>https://www.ijnc.ir/article_37794_a307545221e857b925be9f8a6cbd27b8.pdfIranian Chemical Science and Technologies AssociationInternational Journal of New Chemistry2645-72377220200401Synthesis, Characterization, and Crystal Structure Determination of a New Copper(II) Complex: [H2en][Cu(pydc)2].2H2O1011103831910.22034/ijnc.2020.118527.1073ENVahid AmaniDepartment of Chemistry, Farhangian University, Tehran, Iranhttps://orcid.org/0000-0003-3802-027XJournal Article20191213The new complex of [H2en][Cu(pydc)2].2H2O (1) (where H2en and pydc are ethylenediammonium and 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylate, respectively) was synthesized by the reaction of a mixture of ethylenediamine (en) and 2,6-pyridinedicarboxylic acid (H2pydc) in a mixture of CH3OH/H2O as solvent. This complex was fully characterized by elemental analysis, IR, UV–Vis spectroscopy as well as single-crystal X-ray diffraction method. The crystallographic analysis revealed that the complex of 1 consists of discrete [Cu(pydc)2]2- anion, two bis(protonated) ethylenediamine cation and two crystal water molecules. In the anionic part of this complex, the copper(II) cation is coordinated by two tridentate pydc anionic ligands through the two oxygen atoms of two carboxylate groups and one nitrogen atom of pyridine ring. Also, in this complex, intermolecular C-H…O, N-H…O and O-H…O hydrogen bonds and the strong π…π interactions between the pyridine rings are effective on the stabilization of the crystal packing.https://www.ijnc.ir/article_38319_fedb46bfde0326bec8dab003eb15ad8d.pdfIranian Chemical Science and Technologies AssociationInternational Journal of New Chemistry2645-72377220200401Efficiency of Aptenia Cordifolia Mucilage in Removal of Anion Dyes from Aqueous Solution1111243832010.22034/ijnc.2020.119029.1082ENMaryam MozafarjalaliMaster of environmental Engineering Student, Environmental Engineering Department, Faculty of Natural resources and environmental engineering, University of BirjandMahmood HajianiDepartment of Environmental engineering, Faculty of Natural Resources and Environmental Engineering, University of BirjandAminoddin HajiTextile Engineering Department, Yazd UniversityJournal Article20191229Dye-containing wastewater is one of the main environmental challenges that can cause health issues. It is crucial to remove the dyes from wastewater before its discharge into the environment. This study aims to evaluate the efficiency of aptenia cordifolia mucilage in removal of anionic dyes from textile wastewater via coagulation and flocculation process. To this goal, the effect of different parameters including pH, initial dye concentration, concentration of plant mucilage and temperature on the efficiency of dye removal were investigated. The effect of application of poly(propylene imine) dendrimer (PPI) with the plant mucilage on the efficiency of dye removal process was evaluated. <br /> The results showed that the maximum dye removal with aptenia cordifolia (85.41 %) was obtained when using 5 mg of the plant mucilage at 25 °C and pH=4. Moreover, it was found that increasing the concentration of the plant mucilage and the initial dye concentration increased the dye removal efficiency. The application of 1 mg poly(propylene imine) dendrimer increased the efficiency of plant mucilage in the removal of anionic dye from aqueous solution from 85.41% to 92.18%. <br /> According to the results of this study, the application of aptenita cordifolia mucilage can be a beneficial, affordable and environmentally-friendly approach in the removal of textile anionic dyes from aqueous solutions.https://www.ijnc.ir/article_38320_160bff5bcc861db0aecfb2a056b05a71.pdfIranian Chemical Science and Technologies AssociationInternational Journal of New Chemistry2645-72377220200401Blepharis maderaspatensis (L.)
