Carboxylic acid capacity

Carboxylic Acid Capacity. Alginic acid carboxylic acid capacity was determined in triplicate by acid-base titration. A known excess of 0.050 M NaOH was... 

Although numerous carbonyl compounds available by Reppe reactions are of high economic interest, for instance the acrylates and saturated carboxylic acids, capacities of carbonylation processes are much lower than capacities of hydroformylation processes. In many cases it may be due to the fact that the same products can be obtained by more attractive processes starting with easily available olefins. 

Hydroxy acids compounds that contain both a hydroxyl and a carboxylic acid function have the capacity to form cyclic esters called lactones This intramolecular esterification takes place spontaneously when the ring that is formed is five or six membered Lac tones that contain a five membered cyclic ester are referred to as 7 lactones, their six membered analogs are known as 8 lactones... 

Some of the physical properties of fatty acid nitriles are Hsted in Table 14 (see also Carboxylic acids). Eatty acid nitriles are produced as intermediates for a large variety of amines and amides. Estimated U.S. production capacity (1980) was >140, 000 t/yr. Eatty acid nitriles are produced from the corresponding acids by a catalytic reaction with ammonia in the Hquid phase. They have Httie use other than as intermediates but could have some utility as surfactants (qv), mst inhibitors, and plastici2ers (qv). 

The smooth conversion of the enol acetate (151) into an A -acyl derivative (152) under extremely mild conditions points to the high acylating capacity of these esters. This cleavage of isoxazolium salts is also caused by other anions of carboxylic acids, and thus they can be readily converted to reactive enol esters. A very convenient and specific synthesis of peptides due to Woodward et is based on... 

MnP is the most commonly widespread of the class II peroxidases [72, 73], It catalyzes a PLC -dependent oxidation of Mn2+ to Mn3+. The catalytic cycle is initiated by binding of H2O2 or an organic peroxide to the native ferric enzyme and formation of an iron-peroxide complex the Mn3+ ions finally produced after subsequent electron transfers are stabilized via chelation with organic acids like oxalate, malonate, malate, tartrate or lactate [74], The chelates of Mn3+ with carboxylic acids cause one-electron oxidation of various substrates thus, chelates and carboxylic acids can react with each other to form alkyl radicals, which after several reactions result in the production of other radicals. These final radicals are the source of autocataly tic ally produced peroxides and are used by MnP in the absence of H2O2. The versatile oxidative capacity of MnP is apparently due to the chelated Mn3+ ions, which act as diffusible redox-mediator and attacking, non-specifically, phenolic compounds such as biopolymers, milled wood, humic substances and several xenobiotics [72, 75, 76]. 

L-2-oxothiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid (OTCA) (4+5 mmol/kg) enhanced glutathione availability and increased excretion of urinary mercapturic acid at the higher doses. These results suggest that OTCA increases the capacity for detoxification via the glutathione pathway. 

This hydrogen bonding capacity expressed by the polar selectivity is not limited to an increase in retention for phenols. Packings with embedded polar groups that excel in this feature also exhibit increased retention for analytes with other functional groups. Specifically, carboxylic acids at acidic pH and with acetonitrile as the organic modifier and compounds with sulfonamide functions at acidic and neutral pH exhibit significant... 

One fact to keep in mind with such phases is that weak acid cation-exchange materials based on carboxylic acid functional groups are subject to esterification in the presence of alcohol containing eluents. Even thongh typical eluent conditions (i.e., weakly acidic aqneous eluents containing alcohol) do not favor ester formation, such stationary phases typically exhibit slowly declining capacity when operated in the presence of alcohol-containing eluents. Consequently, such columns are normally operated with acetonitrile, tetrahydrofuran or acetone rather than with methanol, in order to avoid this problem. 

Herreyre et al., it could be tentatively concluded that longer alkyl chains in the carboxylic acid section of the esters play a critical role in determining the cathodic stability of this component on a graphite anode. The tests in AA-size full lithium ion cells were only reported for EA- and MA-based quaternary electrolytes, and Figure 59 shows the discharging profiles of these cells at —40 °C. Despite their negative effect on anode capacity utilization at room temperature, MA and EA still improved the capacity significantly.
