FIGURE 3.7 A cryo-EM map of the Escherichia coli ribosome (complexed with fMet-tRNAf Met and mRNA) where fMet = formylmethionine obtained from 73,000 particles at a resolution of 11.5 A. (a-d) Four views of the map, with the ribosome 30S subunit painted in yellow, the ribosome 50S subunit in blue, helix 44 of 16S RNA in red, and fMet-tRNA at the P site in green. Inset on top juxtaposes the experimental tRNA mass (green, on left) with the appearance of the X-ray structure of tRNA at 11 A resolution (on right). Arrows mark points at which tRNA contacts the surrounding ribosome mass. Landmarks h = head and sp = spur of the 30S subunit. CP = central protuberance LI = LI stalk and St = L7/L12 stalk base of the 50S subunit. 

Fig. 77. Presence of the lower-viscosity dispersive agent (violet) in the center of the higher-viscosity cohesive mass (green) allows freer movement of the incoming lOL through the lower-viscosity dispersive agent, with better stabilization of the surrounding iris and capsular bag by the higher-viscosity cohesive agent...

Three crystalline compounds, one violet, one pale green, and one deep green in colour, all have the molecular formula CrClj. 6H2O. When equal masses of the three compounds are separately treated with an excess of aqueous silver nitrate at room temperature, the masses of white precipitate produced are in the ratio 3 2 1. Suggest an explanation for these results. 

Benzophenone. To o 5g.of benzophenone add 1 g. of naphthalene (as a solvent) and heat until completely molten. Add a small piece of sodium and heat again. The surface of the sodium becomes green, and the colour [which is that of the free radical, (C H5),C-ONa] spreads throughout the molten mass on strong heating. 

Transfer 30 g. of the hydrochloride to a 500 ml. separatory funnel, add 100 ml. of water and shake until a thin paste of uniform consistency is obtained add 10 per cent, aqueous sodium hydroxide solution in the cold with shaking until the whole mass has become bright green (the colour of the free base) and the mixture has an alkaUne reaction. Extract the free base by shaking with two 60 ml. portions of benzene (1). Dry the combined benzene extracts with a Uttle anhydrous potassium carbonate, and filter into a distiUing flask fitted with a water condenser. Distil off about half of the benzene, and pour the residual hot benzene solution into a beaker. Upon cooUng, the p-nitrosodimethylaniUne erystallises in deep green leaflets. Filter these off and dry them in the air. The yield of p-nitrosodimethylaniUne, m.p. 85°, from the hydrochloride is almost quantitative. 

Volatiles or Aroma. The essential oil, or aroma, of tea provides much of the pleasing flavor and scent of green and black tea beverages. Despite this, volatile components comprise only - 1% of the total mass of the tea leaves and tea infusions. Black tea aroma contains over 300 characterizing compounds, the most important of which are terpenes, terpene alcohols, lactones, ketones, esters, and spiro compounds (30). The mechanisms for the formation of these important tea compounds are not fully understood. The respective chemistries of the aroma constituents of tea have been reviewed...

The central carbon atom is derived from an aromatic aldehyde or a substance capable of generating an aldehyde during the course of the condensation. Malachite green is prepared by heating benzaldehyde under reflux with a slight excess of dimethyl aniline in aqueous acid (Fig. 2). The reaction mass is made alkaline and the excess dimethylaniline is removed by steam distillation. The resulting leuco base is oxidized with freshly prepared lead dioxide to the carbinol base, and the lead is removed by precipitation as the sulfate. Subsequent treatment of the carbinol base with acid produces the dye, which can be isolated as the chloride, the oxalate [2437-29-8] or the zinc chloride double salt [79118-82-4].

The book Green Profits A Manager s Handbook for ISO 14001 and Pollution Prevention (N. P. Cheremisinoff and A. Bendavid-Val, Butterworth-Heinemann, Mass., 2001) provides a step-by-step approach to developing pollution prevention programs in an organization. In this section we summarize the basic approach for the reader, but refer you to the above publication for further details and examples. 

Correlations for estimating overall mass-transfer coefficients can be found in McCabe et al. (1993), Perry and Green (1984), Geankoplis (1983), Henley and Seader (1981), King (1980) and Treybal (1980).
