Abstract:
In the present work, novel water-soluble cyclotriphosphazene derivatives (3b and 4b) were synthesized by 'click' reactions between cyclotriphosphazene derivative with hydrophilic glycol side groups (2) and Bodipy's (3a and 4a). All newly synthesized compounds (2, 3b and 4b) were characterized by fourier-transform infrared (FTIR), mass and NMR spectroscopy techniques and elemental analysis (EA). The photophysical properties of Bodipy substituted novel cyclotriphosphazenes (3a and 4a) were examined via UV-Vis absorption and fluorescence emission spectroscopy inside water and many organic solvents such as acetone, tetrahydrofuran, dichloromethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, etc., and the results were compared with the each other.

Physical Properties Affecting Solubility
As for any solution, the solubility of a gas in a liquid is affected by the attractive intermolecular forces between solute and solvent species. Unlike solid and liquid solutes, however, there is no solute-solute intermolecular attraction to overcome when a gaseous solute dissolves in a liquid solvent since the atoms or molecules comprising a gas are far separated and experience negligible interactions. Consequently, solute-solvent interactions are the sole...
Solubility Equilibria: Ionic Product of Water
The ionic product of water varies with temperature, and its value is 1.0 x 10−14 at standard experimental conditions. Per Le...
Conjugated Proteins
Nucleoproteins are protein complexes that contain nucleic acids, categorized as deoxyribonucleoproteins (DNPs) or ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) respectively. The nucleosome is a typical example of a DNP where nuclear DNA is associated with histone proteins. The major antigen for the Covid-19 virus SARS-CoV is an RNP that is critical...
