Chlorination of p-cymene by chlorine in carbon tetrachloride: Model compounds for environmental analyses
1989
p-Cymene was chlorinated by chlorine in CCl4. The products of the chlorination were separated by distillation and purified by preparative gas chromatography. The structures of chlorocompounds were confirmed by means of their NMR and mass spectra. The distillation gave as the main compounds: (2) 2-chloro-, (4) 2,3-dichloro-, (5) 2,5-dichloro-, (6) 2,3,6-trichloro-, (7) 2,3,5,6-tetrachloro-p-cymenes and as by-products: (8) 2,5,7-trichloro-p-cymene, (9) 2,6-dichloro-1-methyl-4-(1-methylethenyl)benzene (cymenene), and (10) 2,3,6-trichloro-1-methyl-4-(1-methylethenyl)benzene (cymenene).
Model compounds of spent bleach liquor: 2,3,6-trichloro-p-cymenene and 2,3,5-trichloro-p-cymenene
1991
Abstract 2,3,6-Trichloro-p-cymene (1) was synthesized by chlorination of p-cymene. A reaction mixture was distilled in a Fischer-Spaltrohr distilling apparatus. One fraction contained small quantities of chlorinated cymenenes (two isomers) which were concentrated by preparative gas chromatography. Their FTIR and mass spectra were recorded. In earlier paper the structures of 2,3,6-trichloro-p-cymenene were verified by means of its coupled 13C NMR and mass spectra. In the present work the mass and FTIR spectral data of 2,3,5-trichloro-p-cymenene and 2,3,6-trichloro-p-cymenene are published.
Estimation of the environmental hazard of organochlorines in pulp mill biosludge used as soil fertilizer
1993
Abstract Contents of total organic chlorine and polychlorinated phenols, guaiacols, catechols, benzenes, cymenes, cymenenes, naphthalenes, toxic dibenzodioxins, toxic dibenzofurans, toxic PCB congener 77, alkylated dibenzofurans, alkylated bibenzyls and alkylated phenanthrenes in spent biosludges from activated sludge treatment plants of chlorobleaching kraft pulp mills are reported. Some estimations of hazard caused by these organochlorines to humans and wildlife from the use of biosludge as soil fertilizer are constructed and discussed.
