All the reagents and solvents used in this study were bought from commercial sources. The NMR spectra were recorded in acetone-d6 solvent using 5-mm tubes, at 298 K, with a Varian Mercury Plus 400, (Varian Inc., Palo Alto, CA, USA) operating at 400 (1H) and 100 MHz (13C). The chemical shifts were referenced to acetone: δ (H) 2.04 ppm and δ (C) 29.0 ppm. Some 13C-NMR spectra were acquired in non-deuterated acetone; in this case, a capillary filled with C6D6 (secondary standard [33 (link)]) was placed into the 5-mm tube and the sample was locked and shimmed on C6D6 contained in the secondary standard, and the chemical shifts were also referenced to C6D6: δ (C) 127.6 ppm. ESI mass spectra were obtained using an LCQ Duo (ThermoQuest, San Jose, CA, USA) in negative-ion mode. Instrumental parameters were as follows: capillary voltage −10 V, spray voltage 4.50 kV, mass scan range was from m/z 100 to 2000 amu, for 30,000 ms of scan time; N2 was used as sheath gas. The samples were injected into the spectrometer through a syringe pump at a constant flow rate of 8 mL/min.

Mass spectra of the dye solution subjected to photocatalysis were recorded using an LCQ Duo (ThermoQuest, San Jose, CA, USA), equipped with an electrospray ionization source (ESI), monitoring the precursor-to-product ion transitions of m/z 100 to 400 in the negative ionization mode. In order to accomplish ESI-MS analysis without interference of ionic species, photocatalysis was carried out with ethanol (10% v/v) instead of HCOONa as a nonionic hole scavenger.

The chemical constituents of the tested extract were tentatively identified using a Thermo Finnigan (Thermo electron Corporation, OK, USA), coupled with an LCQ Duo ion trap mass spectrometer with an ESI source in negative ionization mode (ThermoQuest Corporation, Austin, TX, USA)54 (link). The ethyl acetate extract (20.0 g) was consequently fractionated via using column chromatography (5 × 60 cm) packed with polyamide 6S as a stationary phase and eluted via a gradient mix elution system (Water: MeOH). A total of five major sub-fractions (F1–F5) were obtained. The obtained sub-fractions (F1–F4) were separately subjected to further extra purification using a multiple Sephadex LH-20 sub-columns (2 × 30 cm) eluted with (Water: MeOH with MeOH gradient) to obtain gallic acid, methyl gallate, p-coumaric acid, quercetin, taxifolin, naringenin, and quercetin 3-O-glucoside. While F5 (5.2 g) eluted by 85% MeOH from the main polyamide column was subjected to multiple Sephadex LH-20 sub-columns for extra purification eluted with methanol:water in gradient mix elution system to obtain ESC.

Thin layer chromatography (TLC) was performed on pre-coated silica gel glass plates 60F254 (thickness 0.25 mm, Merck). Reagents and compounds were detected under short wavelength UV light and by heating after spraying with a 5% phosphomolybdic acid solution. Silica gel (Fluka, Kieselgel 60, 70-230 mesh) was used for preparative column chromatography. 1 H and 13 C-NMR spectra were recorded on 400 MHz spectrometers in CDCl3 at room temperature. Chemical shifts are given in parts per million (ppm); J values are given in hertz (Hz). All spectra were internally referenced to the appropriate residual undeuterated solvent. Mass spectra were recorded using a LCQ Duo (ThermoQuest, San Jose, CA, USA), equipped with an electrospray ionization (ESI) source. IR spectra were recorded on a Perkin-Elmer FT-IR Paragon 500.

The degradation products were identified by LC-MS analysis of culture samples inoculated with MSM at 0 hr and 24 h (Asses et al., 2018 ; Wanyonyi et al., 2019 ). Aliquots of samples were taken and biomass was separated by centrifugation at 7000 rpm for 20 min at 4 °C, followed by membrane filtration using membrane of 0.2 μm diameter. Mixture of methanol and Millipore water in the ratio of 7:3 (v/v) and 0.02 M phosphate buffer were used as the mobile phase in a gradient elution program. HPLC Accucore (C18, 150 2.1, 2.6 um) was equipped with a photo diode array detector at 254 nm for the LC-MS analysis, which was performed by LCMS -ACQTQD#QBB1152. As a mobile phase, methanol: water was employed (with a volumetric ratio of 50:50) with a flow rate of (0.1 ml/min), and the injected sample was 10 l. An ion-trap spectrometer equipped with electron spray ionization was used to transfer the sample to the MS detector (ESI, Mass spectra were extracted Thermo Finnigan LCQ-DUO, USA). It was discovered that mass spectra could be obtained at voltages of 4.5 kV, capillary temperatures of 275–280 °C, and sheath gas concentrations as high as 40 AU (arbitrary units).

Characterization of Monomers and Polymers

The synthesized monomers and polymers were characterized by 1 (link)H NMR spectroscopy using Varian 400 MHz and 500 MHz NMR spectrometers with dimethyl sulfoxide-d6 (DMSO-d6) as solvent and peak shifts referenced to an internal tetramethylsilane standard. The molecular weight of the monomers was determined by electrospray ionization-mass spectroscopy (ESI-MS, Thermo Finnigan LCQ Duo). The number average molecular weight (Mn), weight average molecular weight (Mw), and the molecular weight distribution of the polymers were determined using gel permeation chromatography using a Waters 2695 GPC apparatus with a guard and 2 columns. Samples were dissolved in HPLC grade dimethylformamide (DMF) at a 2 mg/mL concentration, filtered through a 0.2 μm syringe filter, and run at 25 °C using HPLC grade DMF with 0.1% trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) as the eluent. Molecular weights were calculated relative to polystyrene standards (Mw = 7.2–526 kDa).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
