pH-Dependent ligands as carriers in transport experiments
2004
Abstract Conformationally pH-regulated ligands have been used as carriers in transport experiments. The experiments were carried out through bulky membranes and the pH at the source phase and at the receiving phase were modified to study the ability of ligands to act as pH-regulated carriers. The influence of pH on transport efficiency seems to be related to its influence on conformational equilibrium. X-ray determination of one precursor compound has been useful for determining the stereochemistry of one of the carriers. To cite this article: A.M. Costero et al., C. R. Chimie 7 (2004).
1-Cycloundecen-3-in
1988
Es wird ein Syntheseweg fur (E)-1-Cycloundecen-3-in (E-5) beschrieben (Schema 2). Die extrem gespannte Verbindung isomerisiert sich bei Raumtemperatur mit einer Halbwertszeit von 2.2 h (ΔG≠ = 76 kJ/mol). Durch Rotation um die CC-Doppelbindung entsteht dabei (Z)-1-Cycloundecen-3-in (Z-5), das keine geometrische Ringspannung Eg mehr besitzt.
In-tube solid-phase microextraction coupled by in valve mode to capillary LC-DAD: Improving detectability to multiresidue organic pollutants analysis…
2009
Abstract A simple and fast capillary chromatographic method has been developed to identify and quantify organic pollutants at sub-ppb levels in real water samples. The major groups of pesticides (organic halogens, organic phosphorous, and organic nitrogen compounds), some hydrocarbons (polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons), phthalates and some phenols such as phenol and bisphenol A (endocrine disruptors) were included in this study. The procedure was based on coupling, in-tube solid-phase microextraction (IT-SPME) by using a conventional GC capillary column (95% methyl–5% phenyl substituted backbone, 80 cm × 0.32 mm i.d., 3 μm film thickness) in the injection valve to capillary liquid chromatog…
Allylated cyclodextrins as effective affinity materials in chemical sensing of volatile aromatic hydrocarbons using an optical planar Bragg grating s…
2013
We report on the application of perallyl-substituted α-, β- and γ-cyclodextrins to an optical planar Bragg grating refractive index sensor for the effective sensitization of the sensor for airborne volatile aromatic hydrocarbons. Thereby, the emphasis of this work lies on the comparison of the different cyclodextrin types regarding their suitability as affinity material assessed by the sensors sensitivity and response behavior. The opto-chemical sensor device showed an immediate and quick response to the application of the investigated analytes benzene, toluene and m-xylene as well as a linear dependence on the concentration of those analytes. Studies on the sensors sensitivity depending on…
The PAH composition in limpets (Patella vulgate L.) from the coasts of Sicily (Italy)
2006
This article examines the presence, distribution, nature and sources of 19 Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAH), in Patellae (patella vulgate L.) and seaweed (vulva) sampled in different stations of Sicilian coastal environments and analyzed for their polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) content. Analysis was performed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) with selected ion monitoring (SIM), after saponification of the sample and clean up of the extract. In the limpets the total concentration of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons ranged from 34 to 750 μg/Kg of dry matrix. The relative standard deviation (RSD) of the replicas on the concentrations of individual compounds ranged fr…
Tin compounds interaction with membranes of egg lecithin liposomes.
2007
This work is a continuation of earlier research concerning the influence of tin compounds on the dynamic properties of liposome membranes produced with lecithin hen egg yolks (EYL). The experiments were carried out at room temperature (about 25 ∞C). Four tin compounds were chosen, including three organic ones, (CH3)4Sn, (C2H5)4Sn and (C3H7)3SnCl, and one inorganic, SnCl2. The investigated compounds were admixed to water dispersions of liposomes. The content of the admixture changed within the range 0 mol-% to 11mol-% in proportion to EYL. Two spin probes were used in the experiment: 2,2,6,6-tetramethylpiperidine- 1-oxyl (TEMPO) and 2-ethyl-2-(15-methoxy-15-oxopentadecyl)-4,4-dimethyl-3-oxaz…
CO2 as a C1-organic building block: Electrocarboxylation of aromatic ketones. A quantitative study of the effect of the concentration of substrate an…
2006
The purpose of this work is to establish and discuss quantitative relationships between the selectivity in preparative scale electrolysis and intrinsic and operational parameters for the electrocarboxylation of aromatic ketones. For the investigated ketones, under appopriate experimental conditions the selectivity of the process is mainly determined by the competition between carboxylation and protonation, de-halogenation reactions (when an halogenated ketone is involved), and possibly dimerizations involving the electrogenerated radical anion. A simple model was proposed to account for these unwanted side paths which allows to predict the dependence of the selectivity as a function of the …
On the relations between aromaticity and substituent effect
2019
Aromaticity/aromatic and substituent/substituent effects belong to the most commonly used terms in organic chemistry and related fields. The quantitative description of aromaticity is based on energetic, geometric (e.g., HOMA), magnetic (e.g., NICS) and reactivity criteria, as well as the properties of the electronic structure (e.g., FLU). The substituent effect can be described using either traditional Hammett-type substituent constants or characteristics based on quantum-chemistry. For this purpose, the energies of properly designed homodesmotic reactions and electron density distribution are used. In the first case, a descriptor named SESE (energy stabilizing the substituent effect) is o…
Hydrothermal liquefaction of waste biomass in stirred reactors: One step forward to the integral valorization of municipal sludge
2020
Abstract Hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) of municipal sludge (MS) was performed at 350 °C for 30 min (subcritical water) and at 400 °C for 0 min (supercritical water) at fixed kinetic severity (LogR0 = 8.9) in static and stirred batch reactors to study the effect of the flow regime on the energy recovery (ER) of the process and on the quality of the products. With adopted experimental procedures it was possible to reduce to less than 10% the yield of lost organic compounds, termed volatiles (VT), and to collect and quantify a liquid hydrocarbon fraction (HC) separated from the biocrude (BC). The highest value of the HC yield, 25% w/w, was obtained in supercritical conditions. The C content …
Purification of rat liver epoxide hydratase to apparent homogeneity.
1975
Epoxide hydratase (EC 4.2.1.63) is a microsomal enzyme which catalyses the conversion of epoxides to trans-dihydrodiols. Epoxides, produced by the action of microsomal monooxygenases (EC 1.14.1.1) from aromatic and olefinic compounds, are thought to be responsible for many of the harinful effects of polycyclic hydrocarbons and related compounds. Thus epoxide hydratase, together with glutathione 9transferases, (EC 2.5.1.18) may play an important role in the removal of carcinogenic and cytotoxic metabolites (for reviews see [l-3]). It has been reported [4,5] that dihydrodiols formed from some polycyclic hydrocarbons (benz(a)anthracene and benzo(a)pyrene) are reactivated by the microsomal mono…
