أفكار أرنولد توينبي عن الحضارة الإسلامية ومدى تأثره برؤية ابن خلدون: دراسة وصفية و تحليلية

Ibn e Khaldun (1406 C.E.) has been an imminent scholar and well known for his work in the study of civilization. His vision regarding Civilization holds the significant place according to the philosophers of history. Arnold J. Toynbee (1975 C.E.) is one such prominent thinker who not only applauded the thoughts of Ibn e Khaldun but was influenced by Ibn e Khaldun’s views as it can be seen in Toynbee’s book: “A Study of History”. As a philosopher of history, he has much contribution in the field; He interlinks History with civilization. He presented a thoughtful book surrounding his civilizational vision; which explains the causes of world’s ups and downs. Although he presented a quality research about the division of the civilizations in the light of religion, many aspects of his work need to be reassessed. As per his understanding of world civilizations, he represents twenty-one civilizations, but with the passage of time, the number reduces and now only five are left in the contemporary epoch. According to him, religion has played significant role in the rise and fall of civilizations through their various stages. This research will highlight his thought about Islam through a comparison between Toynbee and Ibn e Khaldun’s Islamic civilizational thoughts. The study will also mention several problems in his approach to the Islamic Civilization. Furthermore, along with due importance of both scholars in the subject of history, their authoritative status will be stated. This research aims to discuss some misconceptions of the West that are based on Toynbee's understating of Islamic civilization and history. And, consequently, it intends to improve relations between people of the west and east.

Organotin Iv Complexes of O, N, O and S, S Donor Ligands Derived from Dibasic Acids for Biological Applications

Herein we reports the synthesis of new mono and diorganotin(IV) complexes of Schiff baes/hydrazones with [O, N, O] and dithiocarbamates with [S, S] donor ligands. The methodologies described herein includes; the synthesis of five versatile Schiff bases/hydrazones ligands; N'', N''-4-bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)oxalohydrazide(H4L1), N'', N''-4-bis(2-hydroxylbenzylidene)malonohydrazide (H4L2), N′, N′-4-bis(2- hydroxybenzylidene)succinohydrazide (H4L3), N′, N′-4-bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)glutarohydrazide (H4L4) and N′, N′-4-bis(2-hydroxybenzylidene)adipohydrazide (H4L5). Herein the thesis also embodied another series of five dithiocarbamates ligands of the types; dipotassium-2, 2-oxalylbis(hydrazine-1-carbodithioat) (K2L1), dipotassium-2, 2-malonylbis(hydrazine-1-carbodithioate) (K2L2), dipotassium2, 2''-succinylbis(hydrazine-1-carbodithioate) (K2L3), dipotassium-2, 2''-glutaroylbis(hydrazine-1-carbodithioate) (K2L4) and dipotassium-2, 2''-adipoylbis(hydrazine-1carbodithioate) (K2L5). For the synthesis of organotin(IV) complexes the reaction between Schiff bases/ hydrazone ligands with [O, N,O] donor sites, mono- and diorganotin(IV)chlorides/oxides were carried out at various reaction conditions and obtained fifty new organotin Schiff bases/hydrazone complexes. The reaction between dithiocarbamae ligands with [S, S] binding sites, mono- and diorganotin(IV)chlorides were unsuccessful and end up with desulfurized isothiocynates. The structural and coordination chemistry of ligands with O, N, O and S, S binding mode/sites and thier organotin(IV) complexes were investigated by using FT-IR and single crystallographic studies in the solid sate. The solution chemistry of these complexes was investigated through mass spectrometry and some multinuclear (1H, 13C and 119Sn) spectal studies. The results revealed that Schiff bases/hydrazones coordinate to tin through a tridentate mode using [O, N, O] binding mode. The structural analysi of single crystal by X-ray technique showed that organotincomplexes procured from hydrazone with tridentate lignads (O, N, O), mono- and diorganotin(IV) chlorides exhibited distorted octahedral (oh) and distorted trigonal bipyramidal (tbp) geometry respectively.Based on the computational studies; the trigonal bipyramidal complexes showed a Sn···O tetrel bonding/interaction in the solid state. A computational study, in combination with the quantum theory of atoms in molecules (QTAIM) shows that the Sn···O interactions involved here are purely electrostatic in nature with little covalent character and leads to a shorter Sn···O [3.480(2 Å)] inter-atomic bond distance as compare to the reported “sum of van der Waals radii (3.92 Å)”. However, these types of interaction cannot be seen in the compounds when the phenyl /butyl groups or when the methylene spacer (-CH2-) between the two-hydrazone fragments is increased replaces the methyl groups. Finally, all the complexes were screened for anticancer activities using carbopaltin as a standard drug. The diorgantotin hydrazone complexes;wheremethyl and phenyl groups are attached to tin(IV)showed reasonable activities due tosolubility problems but the dibutyltin(IV) complexes of the hydrazone [O, N, O] ligands showed excellent activities and have been used as representative sample (compounds) against various cancer cell lines (HL-60, MCF-7 and HeLa ) obtained from human being. It is assumed that the high cytotoxic activities of the dibutyl tin(IV) complexes are due to its lipophilic character and can be compared with the activity of the standard drug (carboplatin). These results might be helpful in the rational drug designing of those complexes containing the dibutyl moiety.
