Alcohols solution-phase acidities

In both of these solvents, there are several examples of a trend in which the elaboration of a alkyl group on an acidic site, in the usual series of methyl, ethyl, isopropyl, and f-butyl, results in a decrease in the solution phase acidity and an increase in the gas phase acidity. First noted for the alcohol acidities, this trend has been observed for a wide variety of acids since then. ... 

The following are some of the typical industrial applications for liquid-phase carbon adsorption. Generally liquid-phase carbon adsorbents are used to decolorize or purify liquids, solutions, and liquefiable materials such as waxes. Specific industrial applications include the decolorization of sugar syrups the removal of sulfurous, phenolic, and hydrocarbon contaminants from wastewater the purification of various aqueous solutions of acids, alkalies, amines, glycols, salts, gelatin, vinegar, fruit juices, pectin, glycerol, and alcoholic spirits dechlorination the removal of... 

The pH is adjusted to 5.5 and the water phase separated and extracted with additional ether in order to remove the surplus dimethyl anilin. After addition of an excess of ammonia to the solution, the reaction product, N-methylpipecolic acid 2,6-dimethyl anilide, is recovered by extraction with isoamyl alcohol. The isoamyl alcohol solution is evaporated to dryness, the product dissolved in dilute hydrochloric acid, treated with charcoal and reprecipitated with NaOH. N-methylpipecolic acid 2,6-dimethyl anilide is obtained in crystalline form. 

Each microreactor consists of a polymer-bound substrate and a radiofrequency encoded microchip enclosed within a small porous vessel. The radiofrequency tag allows the identity of the substrate contained within each microreactor to be established readily. Using this technology, the polymer-bound substrates 86 were individually elaborated, within separate microreactors, by sequential reactions with acids 87 and alcohols 88 in a similar way to the solution-phase processes [25c]. Each of the microreactors was then subjected to the tandem RCM resin-cleavage conditions employing initiator 3. The products from each microreactor were obtained as a mixture of four compounds (89-92). The library of analogs prepared by this technique was then screened for biological activity [25c]. 

In a soluble polymer strategy comparable to resin-capture [145], Janda reported a MeO-PEGsooo-supported dialkyl borane reagent (31) that was used in the purification of a solution-phase library of y9-amino alcohols [146]. Purification was achieved by simply adding (31) to the crude reaction mixture followed by subsequent precipitation of the polymer with diethyl ether to give polymer-supported 1,3,2-oxazaboroU-dine (32) (Scheme 5.2). The /9-amino alcohol product could then be released from the soluble support by treatment with acid. In a two-step synthetic strategy that is readily amendable to automation, the isolation of a small library of /9-amino alcohols was accomplished with all compounds obtained in >80% purity. 

Photolytic. A n-hexane solution containing /n-xylene and spread as a thin film (4 mm) on cold water (10 °C) was irradiated by a mercury medium pressure lamp. In 3 h, 18.5% of the p-xylene photooxidized into p-methylbenzaldehyde, p-benzyl alcohol, p-benzoic acid, and p-methylacetophenone (Moza and Feicht, 1989). Glyoxal and methylglyoxal were produced from the photooxidation of p-xylene by OH radicals in air at 25 °C (Tuazon et al., 1986a). The rate constant for the reaction of p-xylene and OH radicals at room temperature was 1.22 x lO " cmVmolecule-sec (Hansen et al., 1975). A rate constant of 7.45 x 10 L/molecule-sec was reported for the reaction of p-xylene with OH radicals in the gas phase (Darnall et al, 1976). Similarly, a room temperature rate constant of 1.41 x 10 " cm /molecule-sec was reported for the vapor-phase reaction of p-xylene with OH radicals (Atkinson, 1985). At 25 °C, a rate constant of 1.29 x lO " cmVmolecule-sec was reported for the same reaction (Ohta and Ohyama, 1985). 

The direct solution-phase hydroxyamination of esters is commonly accomplished by a two-step preparation of the potassium salt of hydroxylamine followed by the addition of the ester in alcohol". Alternatively, the stepwise saponification of the ester to the acid is followed by activation of the acid as acyl chloride or mixed anhydride and then by quenching with an O-protected hydroxylamine analogue". In special cases, the hydrox-yamination of ester substrates has been achieved via enzymatic methods" or, for more reactive esters, by treatment with excess hydroxylamine in alcohol". ... 

Early oxidation hair dyes were used in solution form these have been replaced by cream- or gel-based formulas. The oil-in-water emulsions commonly used can be supplemented with auxiliary ingredients, such as polymers to improve combing ability, as well as other conditioning additives. Extensive patent literature is available on this point [35], Gel formulations may be based on alcoholic solutions of nonionic surfactants or fatty acid alkanolamide solutions, which form a gel when mixed with the oxidant. The type (emulsion or gel) and the basic composition of the preparation strongly influence dyeing [47], Different base formulations with the same dye content yield varying color depths and shading due to the distribution of the dye between the different phases of the product, interaction with surfactants, and diffusion from the product into the hair.
