Methanol-benzene

Predictions for the other isobaric systems (experimental data of Sinor, Steinhauser, and Nagata) show good agreement. Excellent agreement is obtained for the system carbon tetrachlor-ide-methanol-benzene, where the binary data are of superior quality. 

Figure 15 shows results for a difficult type I system methanol-n-heptane-benzene. In this example, the two-phase region is extremely small. The dashed line (a) shows predictions using the original UNIQUAC equation with q = q. This form of the UNIQUAC equation does not adequately fit the binary vapor-liquid equilibrium data for the methanol-benzene system and therefore the ternary predictions are grossly in error. The ternary prediction is much improved with the modified UNIQUAC equation (b) since this equation fits the methanol-benzene system much better. Further improvement (c) is obtained when a few ternary data are used to fix the binary parameters.

Electrodes of the first kind have only limited application to titration in non-aqueous media a well-known example is the use of a silver electrode in the determination of sulphides and/or mercaptans in petroleum products by titration in methanol-benzene (1 1) with methanolic silver nitrate as titrant. As an indicator electrode of the second kind the antimony pH electrode (or antimony/antimony trioxide electrode) may be mentioned its standard potential value depends on proton solvation in the titration medium chosen cf., the equilibrium reaction on p. 46).

Equimolar quantities of 2,4-diamino-l,5-benzenediol dihydrochloride and isophthalic acid were mixed in fresh poly (phosphoric acid) using a high-shear stirrer under a slow stream of nitrogen gas. The system was heated at 40°C for 6 hours, at CG°C for 18 hours, at 120°C for 6 hours, at 160°C for 8 hours, and at 220°C for 24 hours. The resultant mixture was dark brown. The polymer was precipitated from water. After filtration and washing with water and methanol, the solid product was then dissolved in methane-sulfonic acid, filtered and precipitated by the addition of methanol. The solid was washed with concentrated ammonium hydroxide, water, methanol, methanol/benzene mixtures (with a volume ratio of 1/1), and finally benzene. The final product was dark brown. 

The sensors were exposed to the following VOC n-pentane, methanol, benzene, triethylamine and acetic acid. 

This method has been applied to bottom sediments and muds [4]. The mud sample is centrifuged to separate the water, dried at room temperature, ground and sieved. This residue is extracted for lh at 80°C with methanol-benzene (1 1), the extraction is repeated twice, and the combined extracts are evaporated and the residue dissolved in water. Alkylbenzenesulphonates are then determined by infrared spectroscopy as described above. 

Uchiyama [11] applied this method to the determination of fluorescent whitening agents and alkyl benzenesulphonates and also methylene blue active substances in bottom sediment samples taken in a lake. The muds were filtered off with a suction filter and frozen until analyzed. About 20g of wet bottom mud was extracted three times with a methanol-benzene (1 1) mixture. After the solvent was evaporated using a water bath, the residue was dissolved in hot water and this solution used for analysis. Table 10.2 shows the analytical results for methylene blue active substances (MBAS), alkyl benzene-sulphonate (ABS), and fluorescent whitening agent (FWA) in bottom sediments. 

Because of their versatility and simplicity, TLC methods have been frequently applied to the separation and semi-quantitative determination of carotenoid pigments in synthetic mixtures and various biological matrices. The retention of pure carotenoid standards has been measured in different TLC systems. Separations have been carried out on silica plates using three mobile phases (1) petroleum ether-acetone, 6 4 v/v (2) petroleum ether-tert-butanol 8 2 v/v, and (3) methanol-benzene-ethyl acetate 5 75 20 v/v. Carotenoids were dissolved in benzene and applied to the plates. Developments were performed in presaturated normal chambers. The chemical structure and the Rv values of the analytes measured in the three mobile phases are listed in Table 2.1. It was concluded from the retention data that mobile phase 3 is the most suitable for the separation of this set of carotenoids [13],... 

The hydration state of risedronate sodium was monitored continuously in a fluidized bed dryer and correlated to data on the physical stability of tablets made from the monitored material [275]. The final granulation moisture was found to affect the solid-state form, which in turn dictated the drug s physical stability over time. The process of freeze-drying mannitol was monitored continuously with in-line Raman and at-line NIR spectroscopies [276]. The thin polymer solvent coatings, such as poly(vinyl acetate) with toluene, methanol, benzene, and combinations of the solvents, were monitored as they dried to generate concentra-tion/time profiles [277]. 

NOTE Typical agents of concern are hydrogen sulfide, amines, chlorides, bromides, iodides, cyanides, fluorides, naphthenic acid and polythionic acid. Other agents affecting elastomer selection include ketones, ethylene oxide, sodium hydroxide, methanol, benzene and solvents.

IR analysis shows that double bonds were absent in the product within the range of an experimental error. The reaction product is composed of ladder blocks and the blocks of styrene units. In order to verify this structure, hydrolysis of the product was carried out in methanol-benzene and methanol solutions of KOH. After the hydrolysis, the product was esterified by diazomethane and styrene-methyl methacrylate copolymer was separated. The expected scheme of these reactions is as follows ... 

Azeotrope formers, generally polar compounds, have the ability to form, with hydrocarbons, nonideal mixtures having vapor pressures higher than either component in the mixture and therefore lower boiling points. Fortunately, different types of hydrocarbons show different degrees of nonideality with a given azeotrope former. For example, benzene and cyclohexane boil at about 176° F., while the methanol-cyclohexane azeotrope boils at 130° F., and the methanol-benzene azeotrope boils at 137° F., a difference of 7° F. Hence, fractionation of a mixture of benzene and cyclohexane in the presence of methanol effectively separates the two hydrocarbons. 

Diatomaceous earth. (Celite 535 or 545, Hyflo Super-cel, Dicalite, Kieselguhr) is purified before use by washing with 3M hydrochloric acid, then water, or it is made into a slurry with hot water, filtered at the pump and washed with water at 50° until the filtrate is no longer alkaline to litmus. Organic materials can be removed by repeated extraction at 50° with methanol, benzene or chloroform, followed by washing with methanol, filtering and drying at 90-100°.
