Different Alcohols (different + alcohol)
Selected AbstractsEnantioselectivity of alcohol-modified polymeric surfactants in micellar electrokinetic chromatographyELECTROPHORESIS, Issue 15 2003Jepkoech Tarus Abstract A novel method of modifying sodium undecanoyl- L -leucinate (SUL) micelles employed in chiral separation of analytes in micellar electrokinetic chromatography (MEKC) to enhance selectivity toward specific analytes is discussed. The current study aimed at modifying the SUL micelles by introducing different alcohols into the mono-SUL micelles. The micellar solutions were then polymerized in the presence of alcohols followed by postpolymerization extraction of the alcohols to yield alcohol-free polymeric surfactants (poly- L -SUL). The effects of hexanol (C6OH) and undecylenyl alcohol (C11OH) on micellar properties of this surfactant were investigated by use of surface tensiometry, fluorescence spectroscopy, pulsed field gradient-nuclear magnetic resonance (PFG-NMR), and MEKC. The surface tension and PFG-NMR studies indicated an increase in the critical micelle concentration (cmc) and micellar size upon increasing the alcohol concentration. Fluorescence measurements suggested that alcohols induce closely packed micellar structures. Coumarinic and benzoin derivatives, as well as (±)-1, 1'-binaphthyl-2,2'-dihydrogen phosphate (BNP) were used as test analytes for MEKC experiments. Examination of MEKC data showed remarkable resolutions and capacity factors of coumarinic derivatives obtained with modified poly- L -SUL as compared to the unmodified poly- L -SUL. Evaluation of fluorescence, PFG-NMR, and MEKC data suggest a strong correlation between the polarity and hydrodynamic radii of alcohol-modified micelles and the resolution of the test analytes.

Biette Vanadium oxide macroscopic fibers (see Figure) are obtained by an extrusion process. The fibers consist of nanoscopic ribbons with a preferential orientation and a longitudinal Young's modulus of around 15,GPa. As well as showing high sensitivity, the fibers reversibly cycle between insulating and semiconducting upon exposure to alcohol vapor sources, with signature responses to different alcohols. [source] STUDY OF FACTORS INFLUENCING PROTEIN ESTERIFICATION USING ,-LACTOGLOBULIN AS A MODELJOURNAL OF FOOD BIOCHEMISTRY, Issue 5 2000MAHMOUD SITOHY ABSTRACT ,-Lactoglobulin was esterified with different alcohols (methanol, ethanol, n-propanol and iso-propanol) over various conditions of acidity, protein concentration, water content, time and temperature. The resulting products were simply recovered by centrifugation of the reaction mixture at the end of the reaction. Yield of esterification was markedly dependent on the concentration of the acid, of the protein, the water content and the type of alcohol used. Using ethanol andpropanol required 5 and 10% water, respectively to reach a maximum esterification degree. Concentrations of acid and protein were the crucial parameters. Protein concentration (4 or 5%) together with an adequate H+/COOH molar ratio, not only enhance the yield of esterification with ethanol but also increase the rate of this reaction. The results may be applicable to choosing the reaction conditions for the preparation of other esterified proteins. The conditions described in this study increase esterification reaction rate compared to that under conditions used traditionally. [source] Design of reactive distillations for acetic acid esterificationAICHE JOURNAL, Issue 6 2005Yeong-Tarng Tang Abstract The reactive distillation provides an attractive alternative for reaction/separation processes with reversible reactions, especially for etherification and esterification. The discrete nature of chemical species and the complexity of phase equilibria seem to cloud the picture in understanding reactive distillation. The esterifications of acetic acid with five different alcohols, ranging from C1 to C5, are studied. First, qualitative relationships between macroscopic process flowsheet and microscopic phase equilibria are established, and the process flowsheets are classified into type I, II, and III for these five systems. Next, a systematic design procedure is devised to optimize the design, based on the total annual cost (TAC) and dominant design variables are identified for different flowsheets. Once quantitative design is available, process characteristic are analyzed and potential problems in process operation are identified. Finally, the economic potentials of these three different flowsheets are explored and explanations are given. The results clearly indicate that it is possible to systemize the design of reactive distillation by qualitatively generating flowsheet from phase equilibria and by quantitatively completing the process flow diagram from a sequential design procedure. Moreover, some of the flowsheets presented in this work cannot be found elsewhere in the open literature. © 2005 American Institute of Chemical Engineers AIChE J, 2005 [source] The Reaction of o -Alkynylarene and Heteroarene Carboxaldehyde Derivatives with Iodonium Ions and Nucleophiles: A Versatile and Regioselective Synthesis of 1H -Isochromene, Naphthalene, Indole, Benzofuran, and Benzothiophene CompoundsCHEMISTRY - A EUROPEAN JOURNAL, Issue 22 2006José Barluenga Prof. Dr. Abstract The reaction of o -alkynylbenzaldehydes 1 with different alcohols, silylated nucleophiles 5, electron-rich arenes 10, and heteroarenes 12 in the presence of the reagent IPy2BF4, at room temperature, gave functionalized 4-iodo-1H -isochromenes 2, 6, 11, and 13 in a regioselective manner. When alkynes 16 and alkenes 19 and 20 were used as nucleophiles, a regioselective benzannulation reaction took place to form 1-iodonaphthalenes 17 and 1-naphthyl ketones 18, respectively. Moreover, the latter process has been adapted to accomplish the synthesis of indole, benzofuran, and benzothiophene derivatives (23, 27, and 28, respectively). The three patterns of reactivity observed for the o -alkynylbenzaldehyde derivatives with IPy2BF4 stem from a common iodinated isobenzopyrylium ion intermediate, A, that evolves in a different way depending on the nucleophile present in the reaction medium. A mechanism is proposed and the different reaction pathways observed as a function of the type of nucleophile are discussed. Furthermore, the reaction of the o -hexynylbenzaldehyde 1,b with styrene was monitored by NMR spectroscopy. Compound III, a resting state for the common intermediate in the absence of acid, has been isolated. Its evolution in acid media has been also tested, thereby providing support to the proposed mechanism.
