Carbon additives

The combination of two reagents corresponding to one d-synthon and one a-synthon under appropriate conditions yields an additional carbon-carbon bond (exception d°-synthons). The following obvious rules apply to the arrangement offunctionality in the product ("target molecule") ... 

Ketones can be converted to nitriles with an additional carbon atom with the aid of the TosMIC reagent (J.R. BuU, 1975 O.H. Oldenziel, 1973). 

The most general methods for the syntheses of 1,2-difunctional molecules are based on the oxidation of carbon-carbon multiple bonds (p. 117) and the opening of oxiranes by hetero atoms (p. 123fl.). There exist, however, also a few useful reactions in which an a - and a d -synthon or two r -synthons are combined. The classical polar reaction is the addition of cyanide anion to carbonyl groups, which leads to a-hydroxynitriles (cyanohydrins). It is used, for example, in Strecker s synthesis of amino acids and in the homologization of monosaccharides. The ff-hydroxy group of a nitrile can be easily substituted by various nucleophiles, the nitrile can be solvolyzed or reduced. Therefore a large variety of terminal difunctional molecules with one additional carbon atom can be made. Equally versatile are a-methylsulfinyl ketones (H.G. Hauthal, 1971 T. Durst, 1979 O. DeLucchi, 1991), which are available from acid chlorides or esters and the dimsyl anion. Carbanions of these compounds can also be used for the synthesis of 1,4-dicarbonyl compounds (p. 65f.). 

Refined Ferromanganese. Refined ferromanganese refers to alloys that are not carbon saturated and range from less than 0.10 to 1.50% maximum carbon. Medium carbon grades are used in special grades of steels where in final additions carbon control is important. The low carbon grades are used mainly in the production of certain grades of stainless steels. 

The shorter form implies no additional carbon atoms, and is used when the group is part of a chain. The long form implies one more carbon atom than the parent stmcture, and is used when the group is attached to a ring, or for other reasons is not conveniently named as part of a carbon skeleton. 

The sulfur monochloride formed in this reaction can be treated with additional carbon disulfide in the presence of a catalyst to yield carbon tetrachloride and sulfur. Alternatively, the sulfur monochloride and carbon tetrachloride can be... 

The lime or lime—soda process results in the precipitation of calcium as calcium carbonate and magnesium as magnesium hydroxide. The solubiUties of these compounds are shown in Figure 4 as functions of pH. When lime is used alone, only the carbonate hardness is reduced. The carbonate hardness is present as calcium or magnesium bicarbonate. The additional use of soda ash can reduce the noncarbonate hardness by providing additional carbonate ion. The reactions involved in the various steps of the process are Hsted below ... 

Carbon dioxide used in carbonated beverages must be food-grade and must meet the Compressed Gas Association commodity specifications for carbon dioxide. In addition, carbon dioxide is tested for purity, taste, and odor before being used in the production of beverages. 

Chlorotoluene isomer mixtures, especially those containing a relatively high amount of o-chlorotoluene, are widely used as solvents in industry for such purposes as metal-cleaning formulations, railroad industrial cleaners, diesel fuel additives, carbon removal procedures, paint thinners, and agricultural chemicals. Halso 99 andHalso 125 are examples of such solvents. 

The initial uses of colorants in plastics were as extenders and additives. Carbon black and titanium dioxide were and are stiU used as fillers (qv) because of their low cost. Almost from plastics inception the limitation of black and white did not offer sufficient color choices for end users looking to differentiate their products. The increase in aesthetic requirements along with different performance requirements and resin compatibiUties led to a great expansion in the number of different chemical classes of colorants and forms in which these colorants are available in today s market. 

The component reactions in eqn. (2) are very fast, and the system exists in equilibrium. Additional carbon dioxide entering the sea is thus quickly converted into anions, distributing carbon atoms between the dissolved gas phase, carbonate and bicarbonate ions. This storage capacity is clear when the apparent equilibrium constants for the two reactions in eqn. (2) are examined, namely... 

Ci9 — C21 pregnenolone (addition of 1 carbon side-chain to 17-keto steroid via cyanohydrin, then 1 additional carbon via methyl Grignard reagent)... 

Other enzymes then add double bonds and additional carbon units to the chain. 

The concept of expansion of the porphyrin macrocycle by formally inserting additional carbon atoms between the pyrrole rings was first considered and synthetically realized by LeGoff/ He also suggested a nomenclature for these macrocyclic systems using the word platyrin which... 

In addition, carbon-hydrogen bonds are present, particularly in carbonaceous materials obtained by carbonizing polymers at low temperatures, typically <1000 °C. Detailed discussions on the types of surface groups and their surface concentrations are presented by Boehm (14] and Rivin [15],...

Some older plants still carry this softening process further by the addition of mono- or di-sodium phosphate and, although it lowers the hardness to only a few ppm, it ultimately results in additional carbonate alkalinity, which is undesirable. Additionally, the phosphate is too expensive and it is better to simply pass the filtered, lime-treated water through a BX softener. 

The natural supply source of carbon dioxide in MU water is primarily calcium bicarbonate alkalinity [Ca(HC03)2], which reacts under conditions of heat to form insoluble calcium carbonate and carbon dioxide. Because the precipitated carbonate cannot decompose further, no additional carbon dioxide is released. As a result, the total amount of... 

Block and Aslam441 reported a novel variant of the Ramberg-Backlund reaction in which a,/J-unsaturated a -bromoalkyl sulfones 368 afforded 1,3-dienes upon treatment with base. Since a -bromoalkyl sulfones 368 can be obtained readily by the initial treatment of olefins with bromomethanesulfonyl bromide under photoirradiation and subsequent treatment with triethylamine, this reaction was utilized for preparation of dienes which contain one additional carbon over that of the corresponding olefin. Starting from the cyclic olefins 369-372 the 1,3-dienes 373-376 were obtained442. 

Consistent with the preceding comments on the metabolism of xenobiotics in the presence of additional carbon substrates, the result of deliberate addition of organic carbon may be quite complex and will not be addressed in detail. Two examples on rates of mineralization are given as illustration in which addition of glucose apparently elicited two different responses. It should, however, be emphasized that since the concentration of readily degradable substrates in natural aquatic systems will generally be extremely low, the environmental relevance of such observations will inevitably be restricted ... 

Vitamins such as thiamin, biotin, and vitamin Bj2 are often added. Once again, the requirements of anaerobes are somewhat greater, and a more extensive range of vitamins that includes pantothenate, folate, and nicotinate is generally employed. In some cases, additions of low concentrations of peptones, yeast extract, casamino acids or rumen fluid may be used, though in higher concentrations, metabolic ambiguities may be introduced since these compounds may serve as additional carbon sources. 

The degradation of 3- and 4-chloroaniline may require the presence of either aniline or glucose (references in Zeyer et al. 1985), while the metabolism of methylanilines required the addition of ethanol as additional carbon source (Fuchs et al. 1991). 

Although the possibility of bioremediation of sites contaminated with nitrotoluene waste is clearly possible, important issues should be clearly appreciated. These include (a) additional carbon sources may be necessary to accomplish partial or complete reduction of nitro groups, (b) under aerobic conditions, dimeric azo compounds may be formed as terminal metabolites, and (c) aromatic amines may be incorporated into humic material by covalent bonding and thereby resist further degradation.
