Die radikalausbeute beim thermischen zerfall von azoisobuttersäuredinitril in gegenwart von sauerstoff und in methylmethacrylat als lösungsmittel

1969

Die Radikalausbeute, gekennzeichnet durch den Radikalausbeutefaktor e (efficiency), beim thermischen Zerfall von Azoisobuttersauredinitril (AIBN) in sauerstoffhaltigen Losungen wurde mit Hilfe zweier direkter chemisch-analytischer Methoden bestimmt, die sich gegenseitig erganzen. Die 1. Methode beruht auf der gaschromatographischen Bestimmung des durch Kombination der primaren 2-Cyanoisopropylradikale entstehenden Tetramethylbernsteinsauredinitrils; sie liefert einen Wert fur (1-e). Die 2. Methode beruht auf der jodometrischen Bestimmung von 2-Cyanoisopropylhydroperoxid und p-Benzochinon, die letztlich durch eine Abfangreaktion mit Hydrochinon aus den der primaren Kombination entgangenen Ra…

Water Depollution by Advanced Oxidation Technologies

2020

This chapter deals with water treatments by advanced oxidation processes (AOPs) based on chemical and photochemical reactions. The most used processes are described, and for each of them, the main reaction mechanisms, principles, advantages, drawbacks, performances and formation of by-products, coupled with technologies and their applications to waters and wastewater depollution, have been analysed, supporting the main results of studies published in the pertinent literature.

Oxidation Processes in Sicilian Olive Oils Investigated by a Combination of Optical and EPR Spectroscopy

2012

:  Extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) is recognized as one of the healthiest foods for its high content of antioxidants, which forestall and slow down radical formation. Free radical-initiated oxidation is considered one of the main causes of rancidity in fats and oils. As a consequence, reliable protocols for the investigation of oil oxidation based on selective, noninvasive, and fast methods are highly desirable. Here we report an experimental approach based on UV-Vis absorbance, steady-state fluorescence, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy for studying oxidation processes induced by temperature for a period up to 35 d on Sicilian EVOO samples. We followed the decrease in β…

Visible Light-Induced Sulfonylation/Arylation of Styrenes in a Double Radical Three-Component Photoredox Reaction

2019

Simultaneous sulfonylation/arylation of styrene derivatives is achieved in a photoredox-catalyzed three-component reaction using visible light. A broad variety of difunctionalized products is accessible in mostly excellent yields and high diastereoselectivity. The developed reaction is scalable and suitable for the modification of styrene-functionalized biomolecules. Mechanistic investigations suggest the transformation to be operating through a designed sequence of radical formation and radical combination.

Synthesis of .beta.-ionone in an aldehyde/xanthine oxidase/.beta.-carotene system involving free radical formation

1994

The enzymic cooxidation of β-carotene (BC) by xanthine oxidase (XO) in aqueous solutions leads to β-ionone (BI) and derivatives: epoxy-β-ionone (EPBI), dihydroactinidiolide, β-cyclocitral, pseudoionone, etc. We demonstrate, in this article, that this is due to free radical (R . ) formation during the first hour of stirring and the use of aldehydes as substrate. The bleaching of BC does not occur when the common substrate of XO, xanthine, is used; this proves that the superoxide anion O 2 .- alone is not active on BC. BI formation in this case is not observed

Emulsionspolymerisation von styrol mit intermittierendem kettenstart. I. Molekulargewichtsverteilungen

1965

Die Molekulargewichtsverteilungen von Polymerisaten, die nach der von BIANCHI, PRICE und ZIMM beschriebenen Methode hergestellt wurden, sind sehr breit und weisen bei niedriger Radikalbildungsgeschwindigkeit mehrere Maxima auf. Eine Analyse dieser Verteilungen ergibt, das 3 Effekte die Verbreiterung bewirken: (1) Die in den Latexteilchen wachsenden Polymerradikale haben eine Chance, den nachsten Radikalstos zu uberleben, wodurch Makromolekule doppelter, dreifacher usw. Lange entstehen. (2) Auch bei 0°C spielen Ubertragungsreaktionen am Monomeren und Polymeren eine nicht zu vernachlassigende Rolle. (3) Auserhalb der regularen Latexteilchen findet eine langsame Polymerisation in „Mikroteilche…

Biogenic Fenton process - A possible mechanism for the mineralization of organic carbon in fresh waters.

2020

To explore the mechanisms that mineralize poorly bioavailable natural organic carbon (OC), we measured the mineralization of OC in two lake waters over long-term experiments (up to 623 days) at different pH and iron (Fe) levels. Both the microbial and photochemical mineralization of OC was higher at pH acidified to 4 than at the ambient pH 5 or an elevated pH 6. During 244 days, microbes mineralized up to 60% of OC in the 10-mu m filtrates of lake water and more than 27% in the 1-mu m filtrates indicating that large-sized microbes/grazers enhance the mineralization of OC. A reactivity continuum model indicated that the acidification stimulated the microbial mineralization of OC especially i…
