Determination of carbonyl compounds in particulate matter PM2.5 by in-tube solid-phase microextraction coupled to capillary liquid chromatography/mas…

2013

Abstract In this paper, a new procedure based on in-tube solid phase microextraction (IT-SPME)-capillary liquid chromatography hyphenated to mass spectrometry detection by using microelectrospray ionisation (CapLC–MS), has been reported. The device was proposed to quantify 12 carbonyl compounds (10 aliphatic aldehydes, an unsaturated aldehyde and a ketone) derivatized with 2,4-dinitrophenylhidrazine (DNPH) reagent in aqueous extracts of PM 2.5 . This methodology involves the on-line preconcentration of DNPH-carbonyl compounds derivatives coupled to the CapLC–MS system, efficiently providing appropriate sensitivity for the determination of the target analytes. Detection limits for the analyt…

Chromatographic Separation of Cresol Isomers by a β‐Cyclodextrin: Application for the Determination of Volatile Phenols in Alcoholic Beverages

2006

Abstract The chromatographic separation of o‐cresol, m‐cresol, and p‐cresol by using β‐cyclodextrin as a chiral reagent has been studied. Conditions for the chromatographic separation of these isomers by using the cyclodextrin in the mobile phase or bonded in the stationary phase were optimized, and both procedures provided good results for the resolution of the chromatographic peaks. The use of fluorimetric detection (λexc 275 nm λem 300 nm) allows detection and quantification limits of the µg/L for eight studied phenols by using both procedures. The determination of volatile phenols in alcoholic beverages must be carried out using the cyclodextrin in the mobile phase because of the co‐elu…

Comparative study of the determination of trimethylamine in water and air by combining liquid chromatography and solid-phase microextraction with on-…

2005

This work describes a new approach for the determination of trimethylamine (TMA) in water and air by liquid chromatography (LC). The assay is based on the employment of a solid-phase microextraction (SPME) fiber for sampling and for derivatization of the analyte with the fluorogenic reagent 9-fluorenylmethyl chloroformate (FMOC). The fiber, with a Carbowax-templated resin -50mum coating, was first immersed into a solution of the reagent. Once loaded with the reagent, the fiber was immersed into the water samples or exposed to the air samples in order to extract and to derivatize the analyte. Finally, the fiber was placed into a HPLC-SPME interface to desorb and transfer the TMA-FMOC derivat…

Thermal lens spectrometric determination of cerium with oxine

1991

Abstract The spectrophotometric and photothermal (TLS) procedures for cerium determination using 8-hydroxyquinoline (oxine), after extraction into chloroform, are compared. Photothermal measurements are made using a coaxial pump/probe thermal lens spectrometer. The use of high-purity reagents at low concentrations permits a decrease in the TLS blank signal and noise, leading to a limit of detection of 9 × 10−9 M (cerium extract concentration), 40-fold lower than the spectrophotometric value. The dynamic range extended up to 6 × 10−7 M and the relative standard deviation for 5 × 10−7 M cerium was 3.9%.

Mechanistic details of the domino reaction of nitronaphthalenes with the electron-rich dienes. A DFT study

2008

Abstract The reaction of 1-nitronaphthalene ( 1 ) with the Danishefsky diene ( 2 ) to give the dihydrophenanthrene derivative 11 has been theoretically studied using DFT methods. This reaction is a domino process that is initialized by a polar Diels–Alder reaction between 1 and 2 to give the formally [2 + 4] cycloadduct 3 . The subsequent concerted elimination of nitrous acid ( 4 ) from 3 yields 11 . Analysis of the global reactivity indices as well as the thermodynamic data for this domino process indicate that while the large electrophilic character of 1 together with the large nucleophilic character of 2 are responsible for the participation of these reagents in a polar Diels–Alder react…

Dialkyl(butadiene)cyclopentadienylmolybdenum(III) Complexes. Synthesis, Characterization, and Reactivity

2000

International audience; Treatment of CpMo(η4-diene)Cl2 (diene = 1,3-butadiene, C4H6, 1‘; isoprene, C5H8, 1‘ ‘; 2,3-dimethyl-1,3-butadiene, C6H10, 1‘ ‘) in diethyl ether at low temperature with 2 equiv of alkylmagnesium RMgX reagents affords the corresponding dialkyl complexes CpMo(η4-1,3-diene)R2 (2, 2‘, 2‘ ‘, R = CH3, a; CH2Ph, b; CH2SiMe3, c). These species are isolable in moderate yields and have been fully characterized by EPR, elemental analyses, and cyclic voltammetry. They all show a reversible reduction process at relatively low potentials and an irreversible oxidation. The structure of 2‘ ‘a was confirmed by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. The mixed complex CpMo(η4-C4H6)Cl(CH3), …

A method for the determination of dimethylamine in air by collection on solid support sorbent with subsequent derivatization and spectrophotometric a…

2005

A new method for dimethylamine determination in air is reported. The proposed assay is based on the employment of C18-packed solid phase extraction cartridges for sampling. The retained amine is then derivatized inside the cartridges with the reagent 1,2-naphthoquinone-4-sulfonate. By observing the coloured area of the cartridge, a semiquantitative estimation of the amine can be made. It was also possible to distinguish between primary and secondary amines by visual inspection. Quantitative tests entailed desorption from the cartridges of the derivatives formed, and measurement of the absorbance of the collected extracts. The selected conditions were applied to quantify dimethylamine up to …

Evaluation of 2,3-epoxypropyl groups and functionalization yield in glycidyl methacrylate monoliths using gas chromatography

2014

Abstract Poly(glycidyl methacrylate- co -ethylene dimethacrylate) (poly(GMA- co -EDMA)) is most frequently used as parent monolith to obtain stationary phases with a variety of surface chemistries for liquid chromatography and capillary electrochromatography. Functionalization is performed by opening the accessible 2,3-epoxypropyl groups of the monolith with a suitable reagent. The number of 2,3-epoxypropyl groups which are accessible before and after the functionalization reaction, and the grafting yield, are important parameters, required both to optimize functionalization and to interpret the chromatographic performance of functionalized monoliths. In this work, a method capable of provi…

ChemInform Abstract: Synthesis of Uvarovite Garnet.

1989

A garnet with interesting optical properties is synthesized by means of the ceramic method and the formation of gels. Colloidal silica or tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) is used as a starting reagent in the latter method of synthesis, together with nitrate and chloride salts of the remaining components. Use is made of ultraviolet-visible and infrared spectroscopy techniques and X-ray diffraction in studying the evolution of the system. Formation of the garnet phase at lower temperatures is observed when using the gel methods, as well as the absence of chromates during the process in the samples which contained chlorides.
