Distillation procedure for

The precipitation as barium sulfate requires boiling in the absence of air to remove sulfur dioxide. (The residue from the distillation procedure for sulfur dioxide may be used.) Some skill in handling the precipitate is required for accurate results. Complexometric titration after precipitation as lead sulfate (4) is possible. By using three solutions containing different amounts of barium chloride, it is possible to rapidly determine from the clouding whether a wine contains more or less than 0.7, 1.0, or 2.0 grams/liter of potassium sulfate.

Toluene. Toluene resembles benzene in being well suited to the partial-pressure distillation procedure for sulfonation. This process is used industrially for producing sulfonate converted to cresols. Sulfone formation is low and the yield is maximum these results are essential for volume production in competition with sources for cresols not employing sulfonation. Toluenesulfonate for other uses is made to some extent with SOa, Yield loss is incurred from sulfone formation, but there are compensating processing advantages, as shown in Table 7-3. 

Distillation Methods Distillation methods have been widely used in iodine isotope production. Since iodine may be converted to a volatile form (I2), either wet distillation or dry distillation has been employed. A general distillation procedure for carrier-free purification has been reported earlier by Kahn and Freedman (1954). In a wet distillation method (IAEA, 1966), irradiated Te metal is dissolved in a chromic acid-H2S04 mixture. After complete dissolution, the iodate (IO3) formed is reduced to elemental iodine (I2) with oxalic acid and then distilled off from the solution. The distillate is trapped in alkaline sulfite solution. This solution is then purified by an oxidation-reduction cycle and finally redistilled into dilute alkaline solution. In another wet distillation method, irradiated Te02 is dissolved in NaOH and the sodium tellurite is oxidized with H2O2 in the presence of a catalyst, sodium molybdate. The mixture is then acidified with H2SO4 and the iodine is distilled off and trapped in ice-cold water. 

Recycling procedures have also been developed fairly recently for the newer lithium primary and secondary systems. They are currently in the pilot phase but the early stages look promising. Thus, for example, the Mulheim-based company Accurec has developed the RVD (recycling through vacuum distillation) procedure for lithium manganese oxide (Li-MnO ) batteries (see Figure 19.12). 

King, 1971 Naphtali and Sandholm, 1971 Newman, 1963 and Tomich, 1970). Moreover the choice of appropriate computation procedures for distillation, absorption, and extraction is highly dependent on the system being separated, the conditions of separation, and the specifications to be satisfied (Friday and Smith, 1964 Seppala and Luus, 1972). The thermodynamic methods presented in Chapters 3, 4, and 5, particularly when combined to... 

Alternatively, the following procedure for isolating the glycol may be used. Dilute the partly cooled mixture with 250 ml. of water, transfer to a distilling flask, and distil from an oil bath until the temperature reaches 95°. Transfer the hot residue to an apparatus for continuous extraction with ether (e.g.. Fig. II, 44, 2). The extraction is a slow process (36-48 hours) as the glycol is not very soluble in ether. (Benzene may also be employed as the extraction solvent.) Distil off the ether and, after removal of the water and alcohol, distil the glycol under reduced pressure from a Claisen flask. 

The ease of hydrolysis of metal alkoxides makes metal analysis a comparatively simple task. In many cases, the metal may be estimated by hydrolysis of a sample in a cmcible, and ignition to the metal oxide. Alternatively, the metal ion may be brought into solution by hydrolysis of a sample with dilute acid, followed by a standard analytical procedure for a solution of that particular metal. If the alcohol Hberated during the hydrolysis is likely to cause interference, it may be distilled from the solution by boiling. 

Several colorimetric procedures for fluoride are available, but it is usually desirable to distill the sample from concentrated sulfuric acid prior to analysis to eliminate interferences. One method is based upon bleaching a dye formed by the reaction of zirconium and sodium 2-(p-sulfophenylazo)-l,8-dihydroxy-3,6-naphthalenedisulfonate (SPADNS reagent) (28). 

The higher fatty acids undergo decarboxylation and other undesirable reactions when heated at their boiling points at atmospheric pressure. Hence they are distilled at reduced pressure (15,16). Methyl esters boil at lower temperatures than acids at the same pressure as the result of the absence of hydrogen bonding (17). A procedure for calculation of the vapor pressures of fatty acids at various temperatures has been described (18). 

Acrylic Esters. A procedure has been described for preparation of higher esters from methyl acrylate that illustrates the use of an acid catalyst together with the removal of one of the products by azeotropic distillation (112). Another procedure for the preparation of butyl acrylate, secondary alkyl acrylates, and hydroxyalkyl acrylates using -toluenesulfonic acid as a catalyst has been described (113). Alurninumisopropoxide catalyzes the reaction of amino alcohols with methyl acrylate and methyl methacrylate. A review of the synthesis of acryhc esters by transesterification is given in Reference 114 (see...

Chlorobenzoyl chloride (m.p. 14-15°) is readily obtained by refluxing and stirring 156 g. (1.0 mole) of -chlorobcnzoic acid (obtained by the procedure for the n-isomer ) and 200 g. (1.7 moles) of thionyl chloride until solution is complete. The unused thionyl chloride is distilled, under slightly reduced pressure, and the product at 10 to 25 mm. the yield of -chlorobenzoyl chloride, b.p. 119-120°/22 mm. is 131-142 g. (75-81%). An additional amount can be secured by working up the fore-run and residue. 

One of the most widely applicable and most commonly used methods of purification of liquids or low melting solids (especially of organic chemicals) is fractional distillation at atmospheric, or some lower, pressure. Almost without exception, this method can be assumed to be suitable for all organic liquids and most of the low-melting organic solids. For this reason it has been possible in Chapter 4 to omit many procedures for purification of organic chemicals when only a simple fractional distillation is involved - the suitability of such a procedure is implied from the boiling point.

Martinek [182] has described the reverse procedure for relatively volatile substances (e.g. essential oil components), where the compound to be detected is "distilled onto the reagent plate and reacts with the reagent there.

As a general procedure, a mixture of the steroidal ketone (50 mg) and lithium aluminum deuteride (20 mg) in dry ether (5 ml, freshly distilled from lithium aluminum hydride) is heated under reflux until the reduction is complete according to thin layer chromatography test. The excess deuteride is then decomposed by the careful addition of a few drops of water and the reaction mixture is worked up by the usual procedure. For hindered ketones or esters the use of other solvents, such as tetrahydrofuran or dioxane, may be preferable to allow higher reaction temperatures. 

At the end of the stirring period cyclandelate s recovered by well-known procedures. For instance, the aqueous organic layers may be separated gravimetrically and the product organic layer washed with an appropriate solvent and then distilled, according to U.S. Patent 3,663,597. 

Efficient and economical performance of distillation equipment is vital to many processes. Although the art and science of distillation has been practiced for many years, studies still continue to determine the best design procedures for multicomponent, azeotropic, batch, raul-tidraw, multifeed and other types. Some shortcut procedures are adequate for many systems, yet have limitations in others in fact the same might be said even for more detailed procedures.
