INDEX synthetic

The factor 1 - p/p2 cannot be too close to zero, nor can the refractive index of the polymer and the solvent be too similar. These additional considerations limit the choice of solvents for a synthetic polymer, while their values are optimal for aqueous protein solutions. 

Lubricants, Fuels, and Petroleum. The adipate and azelate diesters of through alcohols, as weU as those of tridecyl alcohol, are used as synthetic lubricants, hydrauHc fluids, and brake fluids. Phosphate esters are utilized as industrial and aviation functional fluids and to a smaH extent as additives in other lubricants. A number of alcohols, particularly the Cg materials, are employed to produce zinc dialkyldithiophosphates as lubricant antiwear additives. A smaH amount is used to make viscosity index improvers for lubricating oils. 2-Ethylhexyl nitrate [24247-96-7] serves as a cetane improver for diesel fuels and hexanol is used as an additive to fuel oil or other fuels (57). Various enhanced oil recovery processes utilize formulations containing hexanol or heptanol to displace oil from underground reservoirs (58) the alcohols and derivatives are also used as defoamers in oil production. 

Microscopy (qv) plays a key role in examining trace evidence owing to the small size of the evidence and a desire to use nondestmctive testing (qv) techniques whenever possible. Polarizing light microscopy (43,44) is a method of choice for crystalline materials. Microscopy and microchemical analysis techniques (45,46) work well on small samples, are relatively nondestmctive, and are fast. Evidence such as sod, minerals, synthetic fibers, explosive debris, foodstuff, cosmetics (qv), and the like, lend themselves to this technique as do comparison microscopy, refractive index, and density comparisons with known specimens. Other microscopic procedures involving infrared, visible, and ultraviolet spectroscopy (qv) also are used to examine many types of trace evidence. 

Lubricants. Petroleum lubricants continue to be the mainstay for automotive, industrial, and process lubricants. Synthetic oils are used extensively in industry and for jet engines they, of course, are made from hydrocarbons. Since the viscosity index (a measure of the viscosity behavior of a lubricant with change in temperature) of lube oil fractions from different cmdes may vary from +140 to as low as —300, additional refining steps are needed. To improve the viscosity index (VI), lube oil fractions are subjected to solvent extraction, solvent dewaxing, solvent deasphalting, and hydrogenation. Furthermore, automotive lube oils typically contain about 12—14% additives. These additives maybe oxidation inhibitors to prevent formation of gum and varnish, corrosion inhibitors, or detergent dispersants, and viscosity index improvers. The United States consumption of lubricants is shown in Table 7. 

Synthetic lubricants are tailored molecules which have a higher viscosity index and a lower volatiUty for a given viscosity than lube oils from... 

Methylene iodide [75-11-6], CH2I2, also known as diio dome thane, mol wt 267.87, 94.76% I, mp 6.0°C, and bp 181°C, is a very heavy colorless Hquid. It has a density of 3.325 g/mL at 20°C and a refractive index of 1.7538 at 4°C. It darkens in contact with air, moisture, and light. Its solubiHty in water is 1.42 g/100 g H2O at 20°C it is soluble in alcohol, chloroform, ben2ene, and ether. Methylene iodide is prepared by reaction of sodium arsenite and iodoform with sodium hydroxide reaction of iodine, sodium ethoxide, and hydroiodic acid on iodoform the oxidation of iodoacetic acid with potassium persulfate and by reaction of potassium iodide and methylene chloride (124,125). Diiodoform is used for determining the density and refractive index of minerals. It is also used as a starting material in the manufacture of x-ray contrast media and other synthetic pharmaceuticals (qv). 

Although the viscosity index is useful for characterizing petroleum oils, other viscosity—temperature parameters are employed periodically. Viscosity temperature coefficients (VTCs) give the fractional drop in viscosity as temperature increases from 40 to 100°C and is useful in characterizing behavior of siHcones and some other synthetics. With petroleum base stocks, VTC tends to remain constant as increasing amounts of VI improvers are added. Constant B in equation 9, the slope of the line on the ASTM viscosity—temperature chart, also describes viscosity variation with temperature. 

Properties provided by the branched hydrocarbon chain stmcture of these PAO fluids include high viscosity index in the 130—150 range, pour points of —50 to —60° C for ISO 32 to 68 viscosity range (SAE lOW and SAE 20W, respectively), and high temperature stabifity superior to commercial petroleum products. In their use in automotive oils such as Mobil 1, some ester synthetic fluid is normally included in the formulation to provide sufficient solubihty for the approximately 20% additives now employed in many automotive oils. 

The index of refraction of synthetic vitreous siUca at 20°C has been fitted to a three-term Sellmeier dispersion equation for wavelengths from 0.2139 to 3.7067 pm (184), where n is the refractive index and X is the corresponding wavelength in micrometers. 

A.n log ue Synthesis. Two notable examples, in which analogues have greater therapeutic indexes than the parent dmgs, have been identified in Phase I trials. These are carboplatin (29) and ado2elesin (37) (35). Carboplatin s approval was based on its comparable efficacy to cis-platinum (28) and its more favorable toxicity profile, ie, reduced and delayed episodes of emesis, reduced ototoxicity, etc. On the other hand, ado2elesin, a totally synthetic analogue of natural product CC1065, has demonstrated a similar potency and antitumor activity profile as its natural prototype but is devoid of the delayed death UabiUty associated with the parent dmg in animals (36). 

Most important for the synthetic chemist is an index to the synthesis of functional groups, e.g. synthesis of alkenes from ketones, as well as conversion of ketones to alkenes. 

Both common and systematic names of compounds are used throughout this volume, depending on which the Editor-in-Chief feels is most appropriate. Preparations appear in the alphabetical order of names of the compound or names of the synthetic procedures. The Chemical Abstracts indexing name for each title compound, if it differs from the title name, is given as a subtitle. Because of the major shift to new systematic nomenclature adopted by Chemical Abstracts in 1972, many common names used in the text are immediately followed by the bracketed, new names. Whenever two names are concurrently in use, the carre CChemical Abstracts name is adopted. The prefix n- is deleted from -alkanes and w-alkyls. All reported dimensions are now expressed in S st me International units. 

Synthetic, nonionic polymers generally elute with little or no adsorption on TSK-PW columns. Characterization of these polymers has been demonstrated successfully using four types of on-line detectors. These include differential refractive index (DRI), differential viscometry (DV), FALLS, and MALLS detection (4-8). Absolute molecular weight, root mean square (RMS) radius of gyration, conformational coefficients, and intrinsic viscosity distributions have... 

In an investigation into the synthetic utility of the oxyindole 122, a wide variety of benzo- and heterocyclo-fused indexes and carbazoles was prepared, e.g., the indolo[3,2-a]carbazole 123 (Scheme 16). Thus, when 122 was reacted with indo-lylacetonitrile 124 in the presence of a base, followed by heating with phosphoric acid, the indolocarbazole 123 could be isolated in good yield (99T11563). 

Henderson and Sutherland have prepared a hydrocarbon synthetically which is possibly a modification of terpinene. They reduced thymo-hydroquinone, thus obtaining menthane-2-5-diol, which was heated for half an hour with twice its weight of sulphate of potash under a reflux condenser, and so yielded a terpene boiling at 179°, of specific gravity about 0 840 and refractive index 1-4779. 

Ethyl Benzoate.—This ester has not been found, so far, to occur naturally in essential oils. It has, however, been prepared by synthetic processes, for example, by condensing ethyl alcohol with benzoic acid by means of dry hydrochloric acid gas. Its odour is very similar to that of methyl benzoate (q.v.), but not quite so strong. It is an oil of specific gravity I OfilO, refractive index 1 5055, and boiling-point 213° at 745 mm. It is soluble in two volumes of 70 per cent, alcohol. 

Ethyl Cinnamate.—The cinnamic ester of ethyl alcohol is a natural constituent of a few essential oils, including camphor oil and storax. It is formed synthetically by condensing cinnamic acid and ethyl alcohol by dry hydrochloric acid gas. It has a soft and sweet odour, and is particularly suitable for blending in soap perfumes. It is an oil at ordinary temperatures, melting at 12°, and boiling at 271°. Its specific gravity is 1 0546, and its refractive index 1 5590. 

Since the first structure determination by Wadsley [56] in 1952 there has been confusion about the correct cell dimensions and symmetry of natural as well of synthetic lithiophorite. Wadsley determined a monoclinic cell (for details see Table 3) with a disordered distribution of the lithium and aluminium atoms at their respective sites. Giovanoli et al. [75] found, in a sample of synthetic lithiophorite, that the unique monoclinic b-axis of Wadsley s cell setting has to tripled for correct indexing of the electron diffraction patterns. Additionally, they concluded that the lithium and aluminum atoms occupy different sites and show an ordered arrangement within the layers. Thus, the resulting formula given by Giovanelli et al.
