Abstract
A new eugenyl dimethacrylated monomer (symbolled BisMEP) has recently been synthesized. It showed promising viscosity and polymerizability as resin for dental composite. As a new monomer, BisMEP must be assessed further; thus, various physical, chemical, and mechanical properties have to be investigated. In this work, the aim was to investigate the potential use of BisMEP in place of the BisGMA matrix of resin-based composites (RBCs), totally or partially. Therefore, a list of model composites (CEa0, CEa25, CEa50, and CEa100) were prepared, which made up of 66 wt% synthesized silica fillers and 34 wt% organic matrices (BisGMA and TEGDMA; 1:1 wt/wt), while the novel BisMEP monomer has replaced the BisGMA content as 0.0, 25, 50, and 100 wt%, respectively. The RBCs were analyzed for their degree of conversion (DC)-based depth of cure at 1 and 2 mm thickness (DC1 and DC2), Vickers hardness (HV), water uptake (WSP), and water solubility (WSL) properties. Data were statistically analyzed using IBM SPSS v21, and the significance level was taken as p < 0.05. The results revealed no significant differences (p > 0.05) in the DC at 1 and 2 mm depth for the same composite. No significant differences in the DC between CEa0, CEa25, and CEa50; however, the difference becomes substantial (p < 0.05) with CEa100, suggesting possible incorporation of BisMEP at low dosage. Furthermore, DC1 for CEa0-CEa50 and DC2 for CEa0-CEa25 were found to be above the proposed minimum limit DC of 55%. Statistical analysis of the HV data showed no significant difference between CEa0, CEa25, and CEa50, while the difference became statistically significant after totally replacing BisGMA with BisMEP (CEa100). Notably, no significant differences in the WSP of various composites were detected. Likewise, WSL tests revealed no significant differences between such composites. These results suggest the possible usage of BisMEP in a mixture with BisGMA with no significant adverse effect on the DC, HV, WSP, and degradation (WSL).

Abstract
The selective oxidation of tetrahydrofuran (THF) to gamma-butyrolactone (GBL) on spinel ZnFe2O4 nanoparticles (ZFNPs) was investigated. The catalyst was prepared with the coprecipitation method and characterized by FTIR, XRD, TEM, SEM, EDS, TGA, XPS, and BET surface area. The characterization techniques showed that a nonuniform spherical spinal oxide with an average particle size of 26 nm was formed. The oxidation reaction was carried out using hydrogen peroxide as an oxidizing agent under solvent-free conditions. GC-MS analysis revealed that the main product was GBL. 2-hydroxytetrahydrofuran (THF-2-OH), gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (GHBA), and gamma-hydroxybutaldehyde (GHBAl) were obtained as minor products. The effects of different reaction parameters, such as temperature, H2O2/THF mole ratio, catalyst dose, reaction time, and reusability, were evaluated. A 47.3% conversion of THF with an 88.2% selectivity of GBL was achieved by conducting the reaction at 80 °C for nine hours using a 1:1 mole ratio of H2O2/THF. A slight increase in the conversion degree was attained at higher temperatures; however, an over-oxidation process was observed as the temperature exceeded 80 °C. The catalyst remained effective and stable over four reuses.

Abstract
The present study aimed to evaluate the properties of new dental formulations incorporating a new polymerizable-derivative of eugenol (EgGMA). The experimental composites were prepared (by weight) with 35% resin-based matrix (1:1, bisphenol A-glycidyl methacrylate/triethylene glycol dimethacrylate) and 65% reinforcing materials (4:3, hydroxyapatite/zirconium oxide). A portion of 0.0, 2.5, and 5.0% of the resins with respect to the total composite was replaced by EgGMA monomer to obtain TBEg0, TBEg2.5, and TBEg5, respectively. The complex viscosity (at 25 and 37 °C), degree of conversion (DC), and water sorption (WSP) and water solubility (WSL) (3 cycles of sorption-desorption process) were investigated. Data were statistically analyzed using one-way and Tukey post-hoc tests. The results revealed a viscosity reduction with shear-thinning behavior as the EgGMA amount and temperature increased. The average complex viscosities at a lower frequency (ω = 1.0 rad/s) and at 25 °C were 234.7 ± 13.4, 86.4 ± 16.5, and 57.3 ± 17.1 (kPa·s) for TBEg0, TBEg2.5, and TBEg5, respectively. The inclusion of EgGMA led to a lower DC and WSP but higher WSL, compared to those of the reference (TBEg0). However, no significant differences between TBEg2.5 and control were detected (p > 0.05). Therefore, the incorporation of EgGMA in a low quantity, e.g., up to 8.45 mol% of resins, within the matrix may enhance the composite’s performance, including handling and solubility properties without any apparent effect on DC and water sorption, making it a promising monomeric biomaterial for various applications including restorative dentistry.

Abstract
The aim of this study was to evaluate the properties of new dental formulations containing eugenyl-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate (EgGMA) monomer, as restorative dental material, in terms of their degree of photopolymerization and cytotoxicity. The target model composites (TBEg0, TBEg2.5, and TBEg5) were prepared by mixing 35% organic matrix (TEGDMA/BisGMA (50/50 wt%) of which 0, 2.5, and 5 wt%, respectively, were replaced with EgGMA monomer) with 65% filler (silanized hydroxyapatite (HA)/zinc oxide (ZnO2), 4:3 by weight). The vinylic double-bond conversion (DC) after light-curing was studied using Fourier transform infrared technique whereas cell viability was in vitro tested using primary human gingival fibroblasts cells over 7 days by means of AlamarBlue colorimetric assay. The obtained data were statistically analyzed using ANOVA and Tukey post-hoc tests. The results revealed no significant difference in DC between TBEg2.5 (66.49%) and control (TBEg0; 68.74%), whereas both differ significantly with TBEg5, likely due to the inhibitory effect of eugenol moiety at high concentration. The cell viability test indicated that all the composites are biocompatible. No significant difference was counted between TBEg2.5 and TBEg5, however, both differed significantly from the control (TBEg0). Thus, even though its apparent negative effect on polymerization, EgGMA is potentially safer than bisphenol-derived monomers. Such potential properties may encourage further investigations on term of EgGMA amount optimization, compatibility with other dental resins, and antimicrobial activity.

Abstract
Poly(eugenyl-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate) (PEUGMA), poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and poly(eugenyl-2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate-co-methyl methacrylate) (PEUGMA-co-MMA) were synthesized by a free radical polymerization route in the presence of azobisisobutyronitrile. EUGMA was synthesized by etherification of the eugenol phenolic hydroxyl group with glycidyl methacrylate. Polymers and copolymers were characterized using size exclusion chromatography, Fourier transform infrared, and nuclear magnetic resonance. The effects of the encumbering substituent on the thermal behavior of the polymers and copolymers were studied by differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetry (TG) and direct analysis, using real-time, time-of-flight mass spectroscopy (DART-ToF-MS) methods. The results obtained revealed that for PEUGMA, the average molecular weight was 1.08 × 105, and increased slowly with the decrease in the EUGMA content in the copolymer. The order of the distribution of dyads comonomer units in the copolymer chains estimated by the Igarashi method based on the reactivity ratio does reveal a random distribution with a tendency toward alternation. The glass transition temperature of PEUGMA (46 °C) increased with the MMA content in the copolymer, and those of the copolymer fit well with the Johnston’s linearized expression. The TG analysis of pure PEUGMA revealed a significantly high thermal stability compared to that of PMMA. During its degradation, the preliminary decomposition was at 340 °C, and decreased as the MMA units increased in the copolymer. The DART-ToF-MS analysis revealed that the isothermal decomposition of PEUGMA led to a regeneration of raw materials such as EUGMA, GMA and EUG, in which the maximum amount was achieved at 450 °C.
