Gas-liquid chromatographic analyses
1983
Abstract The gas chromatography of mixtures of n -alkyl acetates (CH 3 COOR, R = C 1 —C 8 ) and methyl esters of aliphatic n -carboxylic acids (R′COOCH 3 , R′ = C 1 —C 8 ) and certain of their monochlorinated derivatives has been studied on Carbowax 20M and SE-30 glass capillary columns under the same operating conditions. The separation of the isomeric monochlorinated esters was complete on Carbowax 20M, whereas on SE-30 the peaks of 6- and 7-chlorooctyl acetates and methyl (ω − 1)- and (ω − 2)-chlorooctanoates and -nonanoates partly overlapped. The complete separation of the mixtures could not be achieved, however, on Carbowax 20M, in spite of the use of various operating conditions. The …
Thermodynamic and kinetic aspects of the transport of small molecules in dispersed systems
1998
Abstract The knowledge of the behaviour of flavour compounds in complex multiphase systems with regard to their structure is of great importance in flavour perception of foods. The thermodynamic and kinetic behaviour of three selected flavour compounds belonging to a homologous series of esters, e.g. ethyl acetate, ethyl butanoate and ethyl hexanoate, were studied in simple and multiphase systems. The liquid system was composed of water (with or without sodium caseinate) and/or a lipid, Miglyol. First, the properties of the solutes were determined by means of their liquid–liquid partition at equilibrium and their diffusion in aqueous or lipid phases. This first step allowed to reveal the im…
FT Raman and DFT Study on a Series of All-antiOligothienoacenes End-Capped with Triisopropylsilyl Groups
2009
minal a positions. These substituents aid in purification and solution processability, and can be removed under mild chemical conditions. For the first time, we have the opportunity to analyze a series of oligothienoacenes to gain insight into the fundamental structure–property relationships with respect to the addition of each ring. Furthermore, this series of compounds can be directly compared to other well-studied series of closely related oligomers, such as nonfused oligothiophenes and fully fused all-syn oligothienoacenes. [7] To gain precise insight into relationships between the structure and properties of a wide range of p-conjugated molecular Herein, we study the p-conjugational pr…
Highly efficient separation of amines by electrokinetic chromatography using resorcarene-octacarboxylic acids as pseudo-stationary phases
1998
Abstract Resorcarene-octacarboxylic acids, macrocyclic molecules built up by four alkylidene-bridged resorcinol units, were synthesized and used as pseudostationary phases in electrokinetic chromatography (EKC). Resorcarenes provide a stable structure and good solubility in electrolytes even with organic modifiers. The high electrophoretic mobility of the resorcarene-octacarboxylic acids introduced here as pseudostationary phases is based on the eight partly deprotonated carboxylic groups. This offers a broad migration time window, which is the main parameter for the resolution of peaks. From three compounds with different alkyl chain lengths (C 1 , C 5 , C 11 ), the C 11 -resorcarene-octa-…
Chemistry and reactivity of dinuclear manganese oxamate complexes: Aerobic catechol oxidation catalyzed by high-valent bis(oxo)-bridged dimanganese(I…
2006
[EN] The high-valent bis(oxo)-bridged dimanganese(IV) complexes with the series of binucleating 4.5-X-2-o-phenylenebis(oxamate) ligands (opbaX(2); X = H, Cl, Me) (1a-c) have been synthesized and characterized structurally, spectroscopically and magnetically. Complexes la-c possess unique Mn-2(mu-O)(2) core structures with two o-phenylenediamidate type additional bridges which lead to exceptionally short Mn-Mn distances (2.63-2.65 angstrom) and fairly bent Mn-O-Mn angles (94.1 degrees-94.6 degrees). The cyclovoltammograms of la-c in acetonitrile (25 degrees C, 0.1 M Bu4NPF6) show an irreversible one-electron oxidation peak at moderately high anodic potentials (E-ap = 0.50-0.85 V versus SCE),…
Performance of Markers and the Homologous Series Method for Dead Time Estimation in Reversed-Phase Liquid Chromatography
2009
Abstract Two methods for dead time estimation (the use of markers and the homologous series mathematical method) are revised. Out of twelve assayed common markers, only KBr, KI, tartrazine, thiourea, uracil, and urea yielded retention times independent of the mobile phase composition in the range 10–90% acetonitrile, using a Zorbax Eclipse XDB−C18 column. On the other hand, the quality of the estimations provided by the homologous series method was limited by the mathematical approach and the data quality. With this method, the estimated dead time is an extrapolated value, which is severely affected by the data of the most retained compounds that act as leverage points, biasing the result. …
Fractal Dimension of Transdermal-Delivery Drug Models: 4-Alkylanilines
2008
Abstract The pathways that exist in porous membranes used to deliver drugs form fractal percolating paths. For a homologous series of 4-alkylanilines, the fractal dimension D is calculated as a model for transdermal-delivery drugs. Program TOPO is used for the calculation of the solvent-accessible surface AS, which is denoted by the centre of a probe, which is allowed to roll on the outside while maintaining contact with the bare molecular surface S. AS depends on the probe radius R. For 4-alkylanilines, the quadrupole moment Θ is doubled. The hydrophobic contribution to AS is doubled while its hydrophilic part remains constant. D increases 11%. Geometric descriptor and topological index re…
Quantitation of hydrophobicity in micellar liquid chromatography
1999
Abstract Micellar liquid chromatography (MLC) is shown to be a promising technique for measuring the hydrophobicity of solutes. The presence of micelles has a profound effect on the chromatographic characteristics of reversed-phase columns. The linear relationships between the logarithm, log k , of the retention factor and such diverse properties as the number of carbon atoms in homologous series, octanol–water partition coefficients and solvatochromic parameters, which are observed in conventional reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC), are not usually valid in MLC. For series of compounds exhibiting a wide range of hydrophobicity, k itself is linearly related to these properties. The…
Kinetic study of the release of aroma compounds in different model food systems
2007
Abstract Kinetics of release as a function of time from different model food matrices (mineral water, an oil-in-water emulsion, a carbohydrate matrix and a complex matrix containing lipids and carbohydrates) were measured at 37 °C for four flavour compounds. Carbohydrate matrix and complex matrix were elaborated to have a similar rheological behaviour. Flavour compounds belonging to the strawberry flavour note were chosen: a homologous series of ethyl esters (C4, C6 and C8) and a ketone (C5). The influence of the nature of flavour compounds on the kinetics of release was studied. On the other hand, the influence of the composition of the matrix on the kinetics of release was pointed out. Fr…

1978
The binding of two homologous series of oral and intravenous biliary contrast agents to human and bovine serum albumin was investigated using the gel filtration technique and circular dichroism measurements.
