The higher iodides, however, tend to be unstable and decomposition occurs to the lower iodide (PI5 -> PI3). Anhydrous chlorides and bromides of some metals may also be prepared by the action of acetyl (ethanoyl) halide on the hydrated ethanoate (acetate) in benzene, for example cobalt(II) and nickel(II) chlorides ... 

Place in the flask 2 g. of benzophenone, 15 ml. of isopropanol and 2 5 g. of aluminium isopropoxide. This mixture has now to be heated gently under reflux so that the temperature registered by the thermometer in the column does not exceed 80°, i.e., so that only acetone distils. For this purpose, the flask should preferably be heated in an oil-bath direct heating, even over an asbestos sheet, may cause local overheating and decomposition the use of a water-bath on the other hand may make the column undesirably damp. 

Ethyl acetoacetate may be prepared by the action of sodium upon dry ethyl acetate and decomposition of the resulting sodio compound with dilute acetic acid. Most samples of ethyl acetate contain some ethyl alcohol and it is usually assumed that sodium ethoxidc is the condensing agent ...

From the kinetic point of view the facts are different and the order is reverse, ie, the rigid highly preorganized spherands are slow, as contrasted with the flexible barely preorganized podands that are fast both in formation and decomposition of the receptor—substrate (host—guest) complex (20,21). 

Complex Formation. AH four Cg aromatic isomers have a strong tendency to form several different types of complexes. Complexes with electrophilic agents ate utilized in xylene separation. The formation of the HE-BF —MX complex is the basis of the Mitsubishi Gas—Chemical Company (MGCC) commercial process for MX recovery, discussed herein. Equimolar complexes of MX and HBr (mp — 77°C) and EB and HBr (mp — 103°C) have been reported (32,33). Similatly, HCl complexes undergo rapid formation and decomposition at —80°C (34). 

Other acetyl chloride preparations include the reaction of acetic acid and chlorinated ethylenes in the presence of ferric chloride [7705-08-0] (29) a combination of ben2yl chloride [100-44-7] and acetic acid at 85% yield (30) conversion of ethyUdene dichloride, in 91% yield (31) and decomposition of ethyl acetate [141-78-6] by the action of phosgene [75-44-5] producing also ethyl chloride [75-00-3] (32). The expense of raw material and capital cost of plant probably make this last route prohibitive. Chlorination of acetic acid to monochloroacetic acid [79-11-8] also generates acetyl chloride as a by-product (33). Because acetyl chloride is cosdy to recover, it is usually recycled to be converted into monochloroacetic acid. A salvage method in which the mixture of HCl and acetyl chloride is scmbbed with H2SO4 to form acetyl sulfate has been patented (33). 

The same reactants are used for manufacture as for sodium fluoride. An excess of acid is required to crystallize the bifluoride. The crystals are dewatered, dried, sized, and packaged. Cooling of the reaction is necessary to avoid over-heating and decomposition. Reactors and auxiUary equipment are the same as for sodium fluoride.

The polymer is exposed to an extensive heat history in this process. Early work on transesterification technology was troubled by thermal—oxidative limitations of the polymer, especially in the presence of the catalyst. More recent work on catalyst systems, more reactive carbonates, and modified processes have improved the process to the point where color and decomposition can be suppressed. One of the key requirements for the transesterification process is the use of clean starting materials. Methods for purification of both BPA and diphenyl carbonate have been developed. 

Thermal decomposition of spent acids, eg, sulfuric acid, is required as an intermediate step at temperatures sufficientiy high to completely consume the organic contaminants by combustion temperatures above 1000°C are required. Concentrated acid can be made from the sulfur oxides. Spent acid is sprayed into a vertical combustion chamber, where the energy required to heat and vaporize the feed and support these endothermic reactions is suppHed by complete combustion of fuel oil plus added sulfur, if further acid production is desired. High feed rates of up to 30 t/d of uniform spent acid droplets are attained with a single rotary atomizer and decomposition rates of ca 400 t/d are possible (98). 

Naiiow-line uv—vis spectia of free atoms, corresponding to transitions ia the outer electron shells, have long been employed for elemental analysis usiag both atomic absorption (AAS) and emission (AES) spectroscopy (159,160). Atomic spectroscopy is sensitive but destmctive, requiring vaporization and decomposition of the sample iato its constituent elements. Some of these techniques are compared, together with mass spectrometry, ia Table 4 (161,162). 

Other preparative methods include direct synthesis from the elements, reaction between gaseous hydrogen fluoride and titanium tetrachloride, and decomposition of barium hexafluorotitanate [31252-69-6] BaTiF, or ammonium, (NH 2TiFg. 

Thermal analysis using differential scanning calorimetry (dsc), thermogravimetric analysis (tga), and differential thermal analysis (dta) can provide useful information about organic burnout, dehydration, and decomposition.

The intermediate HCIO2 is rapidly oxidized to chloric acid. Some chlorine dioxide may also be formed. Kinetic studies have shown that decomposition to O2 and chloric acid increase with concentration, temperature (88), and exposure to light (89—92), and are pH dependent (93). Decomposition to O2 is also accelerated by catalysts, and decomposition to chlorate is favored by the presence of other electrolytes, eg, sodium chloride (94—96). 

Oxychlorination of Ethylene or Dichloroethane. Ethylene or dichloroethane can be chlorinated to a mixture of tetrachoroethylene and trichloroethylene in the presence of oxygen and catalysts. The reaction is carried out in a fluidized-bed reactor at 425°C and 138—207 kPa (20—30 psi). The most common catalysts ate mixtures of potassium and cupric chlorides. Conversion to chlotocatbons ranges from 85—90%, with 10—15% lost as carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide (24). Temperature control is critical. Below 425°C, tetrachloroethane becomes the dominant product, 57.3 wt % of cmde product at 330°C (30). Above 480°C, excessive burning and decomposition reactions occur. Product ratios can be controlled but less readily than in the chlorination process. Reaction vessels must be constmcted of corrosion-resistant alloys. 

Cosmetics and Toiletries. Citric acid and bicarbonate are used in effervescent type denture cleansers to provide agitation by reacting to form carbon dioxide gas. Citric acid is added to cosmetic formulations to adjust the pH, act as a buffer, and chelate metal ions preventing formulation discoloration and decomposition (213—218). 

As shown in equation 12, the chemistry of this developer s oxidation and decomposition has been found to be less simple than first envisioned. One oxidation product, tetramethyl succinic acid (18), is not found under normal circumstances. Instead, the products are the a-hydroxyacid (20) and the a-ketoacid (22). When silver bromide is the oxidant, only the two-electron oxidation and hydrolysis occur to give (20). When silver chloride is the oxidant, a four-electron oxidation can occur to give (22). In model experiments the hydroxyacid was not converted to the keto acid. Therefore, it seemed that the two-electron intermediate triketone hydrate (19) in the presence of a stronger oxidant would reduce more silver, possibly involving a species such as (21) as a likely reactive intermediate. This mechanism was verified experimentally, using a controlled, constant electrochemical potential. At potentials like that of silver chloride, four electrons were used at lower potentials only two were used (104). 

Agronomic Properties and Nutrient Release Mechanism. The conversion of UF reaction products to plant available nitrogen is a multistep process, involving dissolution and decomposition. Materials are slow to enter the soil solution by virtue of their low solubiUty. Longer polymer chain products are less soluble than shorter chains and take longer to become available to the plants.
