Iron(III) iodide [15600-49-4], Fefy, is prepared by the oxidative photodecarbonylation of diiodotetracarbonylkon(II) ki the presence of dkodine (7). The black soHd obtained is extremely hygroscopic, spariagly soluble only ki dichloromethane, and decomposes to kon(II) iodide and dkodine when exposed to donor solvents such as tetrahydrofuran, acetonitrile, water, or pyridine. It also decomposes when exposed to light. 

The composition of PPG—PEG blends has been determined using gpc with coupled density and RI detectors. PEG and PPG have different response factors for the density and RI detectors which were exploited (173). An hplc system with CHROMPAC RP-18C2g column at 298°C and acetonitrile—water or methanol—water as the mobile phase has been used to gather information about the functionaUty of PPO (174). 

Reversed-phase hplc has been used to separate PPG into its components using evaporative light scattering and uv detection of their 3,5-dinitroben2oyl derivatives. Acetonitrile—water or methanol—water mixtures effected the separation (175). Polymer glycols in PUR elastomers have been identified (176) by pyrolysis-gc. The pyrolysis was carried out at 600°C and produced a small amount of ethane, CO2, propane, and mostiy propylene, CO, and CH4. The species responsible for a musty odor present in some PUR foam was separated and identified by gc (Supelco SP-2100 capillary column)... 

Sugar analysis by hplc has advanced greatly as a result of the development of columns specifically designed for carbohydrate separation. These columns fall into several categories. (/) Aminopropyl-bonded siHca used in reverse-phase mode with acetonitrile—water as the eluent. (2) Ion-moderated cation-exchange resins using water as the eluent. Efficiency of these columns is enhanced at elevated temperature, ca 80—90°C. Calcium is the usual counterion for carbohydrate analysis, but lead, silver, hydrogen, sodium, and potassium are used to confer specific selectivities for mono-, di-, and... 

The reseai ch has been carried out by the liquid chromatograph Perkin-Elmer (Series 200), which has tandem detectors the diode array (X=210 nm) and the refractometer. The temperature of a column was 30 C, speed of a mobile phase is 1.5 ml/ min. As a mobile phase, mixtures of solvents methanol - water and acetonitrile - water with addition of sodium perchlorate. The columns with the modified silica gel C8 and Cl8 (4.6x220 mm, 5 pm) were used for sepai ation of the AIST and FAS components. In order to make the identification of AIST and FAS components more reliable the ratio of the values of the above-mentioned detectors signals of each substance analyzed. 

The esters of thiosulfinic acid R -SO,-S-R are used as fungicides and antibacterial prepai ations. These compounds have similar stiaicture fragments to allicin - natural insecticide from garlic with following structure (CH =CH-CH ),[SO-S] (http //www.ALLICIN.com). For deter-mination of ethyl S-ester of 4-aminobenzenthiosulfinic acid (esulan) in the ointment RP-HPLC was proposed [1] with acetonitrile water=30 70 as eluent. For seai ching bioactive compounds the synthesis of new esters of thiosulfinic acid is perspective that was confirmed by results of recent studies as instance [2]. Therefore requirements ai e existed for investigation HPLC sepai ations of these substances. 

The mixture of acetonitrile/water (1 1, v/v) was selected as most effective mobile phase. The optimum conditions for chromatography were the velocity of mobile phase utilization - 0,6 ml/min, the wave length in spectrophotometric detector - 254 nm. The linear dependence of the height of peack in chromathography from the TM concentration was observed in the range of 1-12.0 p.g/mL. 

Silica gel, per se, is not so frequently used in LC as the reversed phases or the bonded phases, because silica separates substances largely by polar interactions with the silanol groups on the silica surface. In contrast, the reversed and bonded phases separate material largely by interactions with the dispersive components of the solute. As the dispersive character of substances, in general, vary more subtly than does their polar character, the reversed and bonded phases are usually preferred. In addition, silica has a significant solubility in many solvents, particularly aqueous solvents and, thus, silica columns can be less stable than those packed with bonded phases. The analytical procedure can be a little more complex and costly with silica gel columns as, in general, a wider variety of more expensive solvents are required. Reversed and bonded phases utilize blended solvents such as hexane/ethanol, methanol/water or acetonitrile/water mixtures as the mobile phase and, consequently, are considerably more economical. Nevertheless, silica gel has certain areas of application for which it is particularly useful and is very effective for separating polarizable substances such as the polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons and substances... 

Katz, Lochmuller and Scott also examined acetonitrile/water, and tetrahydrofuran (THF)/water mixtures in the same way and showed that there was significant association between the water and both solvents but not nearly to the same extent as methanol/water. At the point of maximum association for methanol, the solvent mixture contained nearly 60% of the methanol/water associate. In contrast the maximum amount of THF associate that was formed amounted to only about 17%, and for acetonitrile the maximum amount of associate that was formed was as little as 8%. It follows that acetonitrile/water mixtures would be expected to behave more nearly as binary mixtures than methanol/water or THF/water mixtures. 

The dispersions of 12 solutes were then measured in a packed reverse phase column using the same mobile phase as that used in the determination of their diffusivities acetonitrile/water). The column dispersion (H) was then plotted against l/Dm...

Fig. 9.3 Absorption spectra of panal in methanol (A), and in 18% acetonitrile/water (v/v) containing 20mM morpholine and acetic acid, pH 4.3 (B). The absorption peak in A is broad due to the partial enolization of the keto group forming a conjugated structure C=C-C=C-OH. In B, the C=0 group is completely converted into an enamine (C=C-C=C-NR2) by morpholine, giving a sharp absorption peak.

Purification of the activation products (PMs). The methylamine activation product dissolved in methanol is purified by chromatography, first on a column of silica gel using a mixed solvent of chloroform/ethanol, followed by reversed-phase HPLC on a column of divinylbenzene resin (such as Jordi Reversed-Phase and Hamilton PRP-1) using various solvent systems suitable for the target substance (for example, acetonitrile/water containing 0.15% acetic acid). 

The alternative technique for analyzing 1,4-dioxane is HPLC. Scalia proposed a method by solid-phase extraction using octadecyl-bonded silica cartridges and analyzed directly on a reverse phase column with UV detection at 200 nm and acetonitrile-water as eluent [328-330]. 

To retain solutes selectively by dispersive interactions, the stationary phase must contain no polar or ionic substances, but only hydrocarbon-type materials such as the reverse-bonded phases, now so popular in LC. Reiterating the previous argument, to ensure that dispersive selectivity dominates in the stationary phase, and dispersive interactions in the mobile phase are minimized, the mobile phase must now be strongly polar. Hence the use of methanol-water and acetonitrile-water mixtures as mobile phases in reverse-phase chromatography systems. An example of the separation of some antimicrobial agents on Partisil ODS 3, particle diameter 5p is shown in figure 5. 

The most popular bonded phases are, without doubt, the reverse phases which consist solely of aliphatic hydrocarbon chains bonded to the silica. Reverse phases interact dispersively with solvent and solute molecules and, as a consequence, are employed with very polar solvents or aqueous solvent mixtures such as methanol/water and acetonitrile/water mixtures. The most commonly used reverse phase appears to be the brush type phase with aliphatic chains having four, eight or eighteen carbon atom chains attached. These types of reverse phase have been termed C4, C8 and Cl8 phases respectively. The C8... 

The newcomer to chromatography, faced with a hitherto unknown sample, would do well to start with a C8 silica based reverse phase and an acetonitrile water mixture as a mobile phase and carry out a gradient elution from 100% water to 100% acetonitrile. From the results, the nature and the complexity of the sample can be evaluated and a more optimum phase system can be inferred. 

The reaction conditions, normally applied, are those described in chap. 2 for the radical pathway. These are a platinum anode, high current densities, no additives and a slightly acidic medium. However, the dimerizations shown in Table 2, No. 2, also gave in some cases good yields at a carbon anode in acetonitrile-water [52] or at a baked carbon anode in methanol [48]. With propionic and butyric acid an unusually high portion of alkene is formed at the cost of the dimer. 

Non-Kolbe electrolysis of carboxylic acids in acetonitrile/water leads to acetamides as main products [294] (Table 10). The mechanism has been investigated by using " C-labeled carboxylic acids. The results are rationalized by assuming a reaction layer rich of carboxylate resulting in the formation of a diacylamide that is hydrolyzed...
