Airstream Atomization and Impinging Jets. The very powerful effect of high-pressure air as an atomizing agent has been demonstrated by Joyce (SB). Lewis and associates... 

A white solid, m.p. 178 C. Primarily of interest as a brominaling agent which will replace activated hydrogen atoms in benzylic or allylic positions, and also those on a carbon atom a to a carbonyl group. Activating influences can produce nuclear substitution in a benzene ring and certain heterocyclic compounds also used in the oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones. 

In general, condensation takes place at the a-carbon atom, leading to simple cinnamic acids or to their a-substituted derivatives. When possible, the anhydride corresponding to the sodium sail should be the condensing agent. 

The alkali metals have the interesting property of dissolving in some non-aqueous solvents, notably liquid ammonia, to give clear coloured solutions which are excellent reducing agents and are often used as such in organic chemistry. Sodium (for example) forms an intensely blue solution in liquid ammonia and here the outer (3s) electron of each sodium atom is believed to become associated with the solvent ammonia in some way, i.e. the system is Na (solvent) + e" (sohem). 

Deuterium is used as a moderator to slow down neutrons. Tritium atoms are also present but in much smaller proportions. Tritium is readily produced in nuclear reactors and is used in the production of the hydrogen (fusion) bomb. It is also used as a radioactive agent in making luminous paints, and as a tracer. 

Quaternarj salts are obtained by alkylation of selenazole bases, the heterocyclic nitrogen atom playing the role of nucleophile with regard to the electrophilic carbon of the alkylating, agent. 

In the presence of strong oxidizing agents at elevated temperatures oxidation of tertiary alcohols leads to cleavage of the various carbon-carbon bonds at the hydroxyl bearing carbon atom and a complex mixture of products results... 

Many naturally occurring substances are epoxides You have seen two examples of such compounds already m disparlure the sex attractant of the gypsy moth (Section 6 18) and m the carcinogenic epoxydiol formed from benzo[a]pyrene (Section 118) In most cases epoxides are biosynthesized by the enzyme catalyzed transfer of one of the oxy gen atoms of an O2 molecule to an alkene Because only one of the atoms of O2 is trans ferred to the substrate the enzymes that catalyze such transfers are classified as monooxy genases A biological reducing agent usually the coenzyme NADH (Section 15 11) is required as well... 

Analgesic tablets are ground into a fine powder, dissolved in HCl, and analyzed for calcium by atomic absorption. A releasing agent of La + is used to prevent an interference due to the formation of calcium pyrophosphate. 

Samples of animal bones weighing approximately 3 g are ashed at 600 °C until the entire bone is ash-white. Samples are then crushed in a mortar and pestle. A portion of the sample is digested in HCl and diluted to a known volume. The concentrations of zinc and strontium are determined by atomic absorption. The analysis for strontium illustrates the use of a protecting agent as La(N03)3 is added to prevent an interference due to the formation of refractory strontium phosphate.
