Ethanol is a peculiar case. High-purity ethanol (200 proof) is difficult to obtain for laboratoiy use because of rigid federal relations, high tax levels, and strict record keeping surrounding its use. (Consequently, the trace levels of methanol and IPA left after processing are dwarfed by the 1-5% levels of each added to produce... 

Five lipids (ceramide IV, sphingosine, sphingosine phosphate, and dihydro- and phytosphingosine) were isolated from cell cultures and analyzed on a silica column (ELSD, drift tube T = 70°, N2 nebulizer gas at 1.6 bar) using a 90/01/1/1 chloroform/ethanol (200 proof)/triethylamine/formic acid mobile phase [782]. Good resolution and peak shapes were achieved and elution was complete in 16 min. A linear response from 1.7 to 17 ig injected was generated and a detection limit of 100 ng injected were reported.

Aroma models of all four tomato cultivars were prepared by making concentrated stock solutions of all single odorants in absolute ethanol (200 proof) and adding the corresponding amount of each odorant (according to its concentration determined in tomato) to 500 mL of purified water. The pH of the model was adjusted to 4.3 using citrate buffer. Two milliliters of the aroma model solution and 2mL of the corresponding tomato juice... 

Now, the ethanol used is almost always anhydrous, meaning it has no water. The closest one can get commercially to anhydrous ethanol is Everclear which is 95% ethanol and 5% water (190 proof). A lot of chemical supply stores will not carry 100% (200 proo ethanol because it is a potable (drinkable) product. This means that they would have to get a liquor license or some other state permit to sell the stuff and that is a hassle that many don t want to bother with,... 

Alcohol. The number of driving under the influence of alcohol (DUl) cases reflects the enormity of the dmnken driving problem in the United States (9). Tests to measure blood alcohol concentration are conducted on blood, urine, or breath (10). In the case of urine and breath, the alcohol concentration measured is reported in terms of the equivalent blood alcohol concentration. Most states in the United States presume that a person is under the influence of alcohol with respect to driving a motor vehicle at a blood alcohol concentration of 0.10%, ie, an ethanol concentration >10 g/100 mL of blood. Some states maintain a lower necessary concentration of 0.08%. In some European countries levels are as low as 0.05%. A blood alcohol concentration of 0.10% in a 68-kg (150-lb) person is the equivalent of about four drinks of 80 proof alcohoHc beverage or four 340-g (12-oz) beers in the body at the time of the test (see Beer Beverage spirits, distilled Wine). Ethanol is metabolized at the equivalent rate of about one drink per hour. 

Alcohohc beverages are made up primarily of ethanol, congeners, and water. Congeners are vaporized with the alcohol in distillation below 190° proof and are developed during the maturation process by oxidation and other reactions. These components contribute to palatability and create the characteristic appearance, aroma, and taste of a particular spidt. When the spirit is distilled at a lower proof, more congeners are present and the spirits possess more character. Congeners are usually reported either as grams per 100 Hters at "as is" proof, or as 100° proof at parts per million or parts per billion. 

Most flavors that are designed for beverage alcohol products use ethanol as the primary solvent for the flavor. Glycerol [56-81-5] propylene glycol [57-55-6] and water are other common solvents in Hquid flavors. Some beverage alcohol concepts require the addition of an emulsified flavor, either as a vehicle to solubilize the oils in the beverage or as a deflberate attempt to cloud the product. This can best be accompHshed at lower proofs with the alcohol breaking the emulsion. 

In 1878 the term enzyme, Greek for "in yeast," was proposed (8). It was reasoned that chemical compounds capable of catalysis, ie, ptyalin (amylase from sahva), pepsin, and others, should not be called ferments, as this term was already in use for yeast cells and other organisms. However, proof was not given for the actual existence of enzymes. EinaHy, in 1897, it was demonstrated that ceU-free yeast extract ("zymase") could convert glucose into ethanol and carbon dioxide in exactiy the same way as viable yeast cells. It took some time before these experiments and deductions were completely understood and accepted by the scientific community. 

Vodka is advertised to be 80 proof. That means that the ethanol (C2H5OH) concentration is 40% (two significant figures) by volume. Assuming the density of the solution to be 1.0 g/mL, what is the freezing point of vodka The density of ethanol is 0.789 g/mL. 

To pursue the development of environmentally benign synthesis routes for ionic liquids, the alkylation step (Menschutkin reaction) was investigated by the authors in detail. The preparation of the ionic liquid 1-hexyl-3-methyhmidazohum chloride ([CeMlMJCl) was taken as a representative experiment (Scheme 7.2). The process parameters temperature (T = 70-100°C), solvent (ethanol, xylene, cyclohexane, n-heptane, solvent free), concentration of the N-base (c = 1.6-6.7 M), molar ratio n n = 1 0.5-1 4) and reaction time (f = 10-144 h) were investigated. In addition, the N-base was altered in order to proof the transferability of the reaction parameters. 

Mobile phase The HPLC mobile phase is made up as follows. Prepare 2 L of acetate buffer by dissolving 13.6 g of sodium acetate and 6 mL of glacial acetic acid in 2 L of deionized water. Adjust the solution to pH 4.8 with concentrated sodium hydroxide solution (or glacial acetic acid) if necessary. Mix 2 L of buffer with 1.6-2 L (the amount depends on the particular commodity) of methanol. Eilter the solution through a 0.22-pm Nylon 66 filter membrane before using the mobile phase Absolute ethanol Aaper Alcohol and Chemical Co. (200 proof)...

The proof of an alcoholic beverage is simply twice the percentage of ethanol (by volume) 100% proof whiskey is 50% ethanol. 

A popular Bourbon whiskey is listed as being 92 Proof. The liquor industry defines Proof as being twice the volume percentage of alcohol in a blend. Ethanol (drinking alcohol) has the structural formula CH3CH2OH (MW = 46 g/mol). The density of ethanol is 0.79 g/mL. How many liters of whiskey must one have in order to have 50. moles of... 

The ethanol-water azeotrope (95%ethanol-5%water) is an example of a minimum boiling azeotrope. Its boiling point is lower than that of the components (Fig. 143). If you ve ever fermented anything and distilled the results in the hopes of obtaining 200 proof (100%) white lightning, you d have to content yourself with getting the azeotropic 190 proof mixture, instead. Fermentation usually stops when the yeast die in their own 15% ethanol solution. At room temperature, this is point A on our phase diagram. When you heat the... 

A number of potential users, such as the printing industry, are interested in the solvent fastness not only of a pigment but of an entire pigment-vehicle system. Standardized tests are available. A proof print of a certain size is placed inside a test tube and allowed to remain in the target solvent at 20°C for 5 minutes. The change in solvent color is determined and the print dried and compared with an untreated specimen. Standard solvents [14] are ethanol or the following mixture ... 

There is a good bit of scientific evidence to snpport the idea that moderate, one or two drinks a day, intake of alcoholic beverages is healthful. Moderate drinking seems to strengthen the cardiovascular system and to prolong life. Maybe it is worth saying here what a drink is. An alcohol drink is one 12 oz beer, 4 ounces of wine, or one onnce of 100-proof (50% ethanol) hard liqnor or about 1 1/2 ounces of 80-proof liqnor. Each of these contains 0.5-0.6 onnces of ethanol. A drink is not a tumbler full of gin or half a bottle of wine. 

In the same period, vendors of proprietary medicines took advantage of our love of the natural to peddle a variety of plant-derived products. These were advertised as safer and more pleasant than those typically employed by physicians. For example, Mrs. Winslow s Soothing Syrup and Kopp s Baby Friend had morphine sulfate as their basic ingredient. Hostetter s Bitters was a 78 proof (39% ethanol) cocktail. This theme is being replayed currently as alternative medicine. This time around, controlled clinical trials are being carried out, slowly, to establish what works and... 

Pure 100% ethyl alcohol is a colorless, volatile hquid with a pungent taste. One hundred-proof alcoholic drinks are about 50% ethanol. When consumed, ethanol is a depressant and may be habit-forming. It rapidly oxidizes in the body, but even small amounts cause dizziness, nausea, headaches, and loss of motor control. Proof was how whiskey salesmen of the Old West demonstrated that their product was potent. They would place some gunpowder in a tin dish and then pour on some of their whiskey. If a match would ignite the mixture, this was claimed to serve as 100% proof of the whiskeys quality. It just happens that 100-proof whiskey is about 50% ethanol. 

Curiously, however, reaction of the dialdehyde (94b) with ethyl nitroacetate under practically identical conditions — aqueous ethanol in the presence of sodium acetate and sodium carbonate at pH 8.6 — takes a different course. The compound, isolated in 34% yield, constitutes a monoaddition product to one aldehyde group, as evidenced by the formation of a triacetate after hydrogenation and acetylation. It has been assigned structure (95) 5 ) and, as such, is a C-substituted derivative of the hemialdal form (94a) of the dialdehyde. Though some NMR data were cited as proof of this formulation 58) two alternatives, (96) and (97) respectively, cannot be ruled out. Of these, structure (97) derived from... 

The sol-gel entrapment of the metal complexes [Ru(p-cymene)(BINAP)Cl]Cl and the rhodium complexes formed in situ from the reaction of [Rh(COD)Cl]2 with DlOP and BPPM has been reported by Avnir and coworkers [198]. The metal complexes were entrapped by two different methods the first involved addition of tetramethoxysilane to a THF solution of the metal complex and triethylamine, while the second method was a two-step process in which aqueous NH4OH was added to a solution of HCl, tetramethoxysilane and methanol at pH 1.96 followed by a THF solution of the appropriate metal complex. The gel obtained by each method was then dried, crushed, washed with boiling CH2CI2, sonicated in the same solvent and dried in vacuo at room temperature until constant weight was achieved. Hydrogenation of itaconic acid by these entrapped catalysts afforded near-quantitative yields of methylsuccinic acid with up to 78% e.e. In addition, the catalysts were found to be leach-proof in ethanol and other polar solvents, and could be recycled. 

Recently Piasek and Urbanski [47] gave further proof of the pseudourea structure of urea by showing that diazomethane reacts at room temperature with urea dissolved in methanol or ethanol to give 2-methyl- or 2-ethylpseudo-urea, respectively, in 11-12% yield. 

In a cold bath or in an explosion-proof refrigerator, a solution of 1.3 gm (approximately 0.0035 mole) of crude Y,Y -benzhydrylhydrazine (m.p. 114°-130°C) in a mixture of 40 ml of acetone and 50 ml of ethanol and 1.25 gm (0.0096 mole) of 30% hydrogen peroxide is maintained at 10°-15°C for 8 hr. The solvent is rapidly removed by evaporation under reduced pressure with only moderate warming. The residue is rapidly recrystallized from ethanol. Yield 1 gm (76%), m.p. 115°C dec. (NOTE On melting, azobis(diphenyl-methane) decomposes with loss of nitrogen to form a solid with m.p. 205°-210°C, which has been identified as the expected 1,1,2,2-tetraphenylethane.)...
