By application of first-order, kinetic equations, B. Anderson and Degn claimed that an equilibrated (25°) aqueous solution of D-fructose contains 31.56% of jS-D-fructofuranose and 68.44% of -D-fructopyranose. N.m.r. studies, however, showed that, at equilibrium, a solution of D-fructose contains /3-D-fructopyranose, -D-fructofuranose, a-D-fructofuranose, and a trace of a-D-fructopyranose the distribution of these isomers was shown by gas-liquid chromatography to be 76,19.5, and 4%, respectively. Based on Anderson and Degn s result, Shallenberger reasoned that, as 0.68 X 1.8 = 1.22 (which approximates the reported sweetness of mutarotated D-fructose ), the furanose form(s) must possess very little sweetness. 

These oxidants have been used rarely. The kinetics of periodate oxidation of sulphoxides have been studied . In an acid medium the reaction proceeds without catalysis but in alkali a catalyst such as an osmium(VIII) or ruthenium(III) salt is requiredlodosylbenzene derivatives have also been used for the oxidation of sulphoxides to the sulphone leveP (equation 39). In order to use this reaction for the synthesis of sulphones, a ruthenium(III) complex should be used as a catalyst thus quantitative yields are obtained at room temperature in a few minutes. However, column chromatography is required to separate the sulphone from the other products of the reaction. 

The theoretical work that exploited the advantages of the multidimensional separation format appears to have been developed much later than the original experimental work. One of the earliest studies was conducted by Connors (1974), who assumed that the distribution of spots on a two-dimensional thin-layer chromatography (2DTLC) plate could be modeled using a Poisson distribution of data on each retention axis. He then constructed equations that related the number of chromatographic systems needed to resolve a specific number of compounds. One... 

The values of ks/kp for partitioning of carbocations are most conveniently determined as the ratio of the yields of products from the competing nucleophile addition and proton transfer reactions (equation 1 derived for Scheme 2). The determination of these product yields has been simplified in recent years by the application of high-pressure liquid chromatography (HPLC). Typically, the product peaks from an HPLC analysis are detected and quantified by UV-vis spectroscopy. In cases where the absorbance of reactants and products is small, substrates may be prepared with a chromophore placed at a sufficient distance so that its effects on the intrinsic reactivity of the carbocationic center are negligible. For example, the aliphatic substrates [1]-Y have proved to be very useful in studies of the reactions of the model tertiary carbocation [1+].21,23... 

The first study that made it possible to estimate the critical length of a column in gradient HPLC of proteins was presented by Belenkii and co-workers in 1993 [53]. Their approach was based on the concept of critical chromatography of synthetic polymers. They introduced the concept of a critical distance, X0, after which the protein zone travels with the same velocity as the mobile phase (similarly to what has been shown previously by Yamamoto et al. [60]). The equation for the critical distance at which the zone velocity v(x) becomes virtually identical to the displacer velocity, u, is defined as ... 

Thermodynamic Studies by Linear Chromatography. The first one is under linear chromatography conditions at variable temperature making use of the van t Hoff equation (Equations 1.13 and 1.14) [48,50,52,53,89],... 

The gas-liquid chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (GLC-MS) analysis of the electrolyzed solution has shown that thiophenol is the only reduction product and the S—S bond cleavage is quantitative. Such a mechanism of bond breaking was confirmed by electrochemical studies. In cyclic voltammograms, anodic and cathodic peak potentials were the same for thiophenol and diphenyl disulfides thus the same species were participating in these processes. Electrode reactions of diphenyl disulfide are given by the following equations [166] ... 

From adsorption studies with the help of inverse gas chromatography The interaction between a stationary phase and a well known gas or solvent is measured as in standard gas chromatography. The results are, however, used to characterize the stationary phase. Therefore, let us assume that n moles adsorb on a surface A. The interface excess concentration is T = n/A. With the Gibbs equation for a two-component system (Eq. 3.55) T = — l/RT dy/d wP) we get...
