The objective of this contribution is to investigate catalytic properties of zeolites differing in their channel systems in transformation of aromatics, i.e. toluene alkylation with isopropyl alcohol and toluene disproportionation. In the former case zeolite structure and acidity is related to the toluene conversion, selectivity to p-cymene, sum of cymenes, and isopropyl/n-propyl toluene ratio. In the latter one zeolite properties are... 

Results of analogous permeation studies for the hydrophobic toluene molecule are shown in Fig. 20. Now the opposite selectivity pattern is observed i.e., toluene is preferentially transported in the R = -CieHjj membranes. This can be illustrated by defining the alternative selectivity coefficient aci6/0H (Table 3). As was the case for aoH/cia. the acie/on values increase with decreasing tubule diameter. In addition to toluene, acie/on values were determined for p-xylene and naphthalene in the i.d. = 1.9 nm membranes. The following acu/on values were obtained 2.8 for toluene, 6.2 for j9-xylene, and 16 for naphthalene. 

Of the olefins, ethylene has been most extensively studied (19, 21, 23-26, 36) it reacts most readily in base-catalyzed alkylations. In general temperatures of 150-200 are used with relatively low ethylene pressures (0-70 atm.). Benzylic hydrogens are replaced by ethyl groups i.e., toluene yields n-propylbenzene. Additional substitution on the a-carbon may yield 3-phenylpentane and 3-ethyl-3-phenylpentane [Reaction (3)]. 

Pure Silica Ncinoparticles. Based on experiments conducted with the TEOS/ AOT/isooctane/water/ammonia system, and water-to-surfactant molar ratios in the range 5.7-15.8, Yamauchi et al.

The method is often used for the reduction of aromatic carbonyl compounds (see 6.1.1, p. 827) which are reduced in good yield. Here the procedure is modified11 by the addition of a solvent immiscible with hydrochloric acid, i.e. toluene.

Extensive, reviewed tabulated pollutant data also exist (see subsection Solubilities in Sec. 2 of this handbook). Any single tabulated Henry s law constant H is published with its measurement temperature, typically 20 or 25°C. The constant H for a subcritical pollutant (i.e., toluene) is proportional to its pure component vapor pressure Psat, and therefore H is an exponential function of temperature T. Using Henry s and Raoult s laws, a pollutant s constant H for a given ambient design temperature can be estimated by using its tabulated value and its vapor pressure, by extrapolating < 25°C over the ambient temperature range (4°C < T < 50°C), from T to T2 ...

The obvious problem now is to question why a dissociative 7 -complex substitution mechanism is required in addition to the associative mechanism to interpret these isotope exchange reactions. Inspection of the dissociative mechanism shows that if a substituent such as a methyl group is present in the molecule (i.e., toluene from benzene, or the pico-lines from pyridine), then it would appear difficult to form a a bond at the adjacent carbon positions in the picolines (18) owing to steric... 

Of all aluminum electrolyte systems, to our knowledge type 3 is today the technically most accepted. This type of electrolyte was discovered and intensely studied by Ziegler and Lehmkuhl [118, 217, 218, 221]. The companies Siemens AG, HGA, MBB, SEDEC, Interatom, and ALU 2000 have developed the industrial scale process (Sigal Process = Siemens galvanoaluminum). The used electrolytes consist of aluminumalkyls as well as alkali metal halides or quaternary onium salts, which are dissolved in aromatics (i.e., toluene). Electrolysis is carried out at temperatures around 90-100°C. Electrolytes of this kind have demonstrated their high produc-...
