June 2018 ,Pages 1.0-18.0

Abstract: A simple and sensitive indirect spectrophotometric method is developed for the determination of niclosamide in pharmaceutical preparations. The method is based on the oxidation of reduced form of niclosamide with iron ( III ) in acidic medium, then the subsequent reaction of iron ( II ) with 1,10- phenanthroline to produce a ferroin complex which is water - soluble , stable (using EDTA solution improve the stability of the complex) , and has a maximum absorption at 510 nm against the reagent blank with a molar absorptivity of 2.19×104 l.mol-1.cm-1 . Beer,s law is valid over the concentration range of 2.5 to 225 μg/10 ml. The relative error is in between - 1.80 and +1.50 % and the relative standard deviation from ± 0.89 to ± 2.07 % depending on the concentration of niclosamide . The proposed method has been applied successfully to determine niclosamide in pharmaceutical preparations.

Amena A. Ahmed (المؤلف)
June 2018 ,Pages 36.0-45.0

Abstract: In this paper the synthesis of five membered ring heterocyclic compounds was achieved, 2-(8-chloro naphtoyl) benzoic acid (1) was used as starting material which was prepared from the condensation of 1- chloro naphthalene with phthalic anhydride in presence of anhydrous aluminum chloride, the acid was then esterified to the corresponding ethyl ester(2). The ester(2) was converted to the corresponding hydrazide(3) then cyclized into substituted 1,2,4 triazole. The hydrazice(3) was treated with ammonium thiocyanate in presence of concentrated hydrochloric acid to give substituted thiosemicarbazide(7) which was converted to 1,3,4- thiadiazole (8) in acidic medium. While in oxidation with HgO the product was oxadiazole(9). This was converted to a Schiff base(10) followed by cyclization to the corresponding thiazolidine derivative(11). Compound (1) was also converted to ethyl ester (13) via acid chloride (12), which was treated with hydrazine hydrate in ethanol to give the corresponding hydrazide (14) which converted to oxadiazole(16) and thiazolidine(17). Compound (19) was synthesized from compound (1) by its reaction with hydrazide (18) then it was cyclized by phosphorus oxychloride. The structures of synthesis compound were confirmed by spectral and physical methods.

Thermodynamic and Theoretical Studies of average Ionization Constants of a Number of Phenolic Schiff Bases Derived from Salicylaldehyde by Conductivity Measurements
Emad A.S. AL-Hyali، Feda H.M.Al – Taai، Shatha S. Othman (المؤلف)
June 2018 ,Pages 46.0-70.0

Abstract: In this work, three Schiff bases carrying acidic phenolic groups were synthesized derived from the reaction of salicylaldehyde with o,m, and p-amino phenols. A number of their physical and structural properties were determined by IR, UV spectra and melting points. The ionization constants of the synthesized Schiff bases were calculated at different temperatures by conductivity measurements. The effect of varying position of OH group with respect to the imine group on ionization constant was investigated. Depending on the results of varying temperatures, the thermodynamic functions of ionization were estimated. The study also concerned with the calculation of a number of theoretical parameters by employing the semiempirrcal Austin method 1 (AM1) including the atomic charges present on the hetro atoms in the molecules, in addition to some energetical and structural parameters. The determined parameters were correlated to the variation of ionization constants of the synthesized imines. Explanation and support for the experimental results were provides by these calculations. The overall results proved that, the ionization constant is affected by inductive, resonance, steric and by hydrogen bonding, and can be determined simply, precisely and accurately by conductivity measurements .

June 2018 ,Pages 120.0-135.0

Abstract: Recently, mobile become the most significant device that used almost daily, and one of the most important service that offered by mobile operators is the SMS that used between mobiles, none of the mobile OS is contain a service that encrypt the send SMS where some needs to send an important, personal or secure message to the other mobile, and in this case mobiles OS needs an application to encrypt the SMS and then decrypted it on the other side. From this conception the idea of this research become to develop an application working on the devices that supports Android environment, this application encrypt the SMS before it sends from sender and then decrypt it by using the same application when it arrives to the recipient. The goal from Using the encryption Operation of the SMS is to convince that the user is using a secure SMS application that it sends an encrypted SMS where in fact that is not the truth, but the application find the loophole to take the encrypted SMS and sends the encrypted SMS to the third party (hacker) where the user will not noticed that the SMS went to the third party. Java language and an android developer tools like (ECLIPS) and other tools where used to build this application. This application is working on android environment and also needs a little space of memory and it works without leaves anything that refers to the third-party.

June 2018 ,Pages 136.0-142.0

Abstract: Linear regression model is commonly used to analyze data from many fields. Sometimes the data under research contains outliers, and it is important that these outliers be identified in the course of the correct statistical analysis. In this article we used genetic algorithm (GA) with three type of objective functions,Akaike information criterion (AIC), Bayesian information criterion (BIC), and Hannan–Quinn information criterion (HQIC) to detect the problem of masking and swamping outliers in linear regression model . Two well – known data sets have been studied and we conclude that GA doing-well in detection these type of outliers when using AIC and HQIC comparingwithBIC.

June 2018 ,Pages 143.0-162.0

Abstract: In this paper, we are concerned with the conjugate gradient method for solving unconstrained optimization problems due to its simplicity and don’t store any matrices. We proposed two spectral modifications to the conjugate descent (CD). These two proposed methods produces sufficient descent directions for the objective function at every iteration with strong Wolfe line searches and with inexact line search, and also they are globally convergent for general non-convex functions can be guaranteed. Numerical results show the efficiency of these two proposed methods.
