Mixed selective mixing

Mixed parallel and series reactions producing byproducts. As with parallel and series reactions, use of an excess of one of the feeds can be effective in improving selectivity with mixed reactions. As an... 

With the more concentrated solution the results, as regards loss of intermolecular selectivity, were similar to those obtained with nitronium salts (table 4.1, column a), whilst with the more dilute solution a more usual situation was revealed. The significance of the former observations is again open to doubt because of the likelihood that mixing was relatively slow, and also because reaction upon encounter is here a serious probability. 

The decarbonylation-dehydration of the fatty acid 887 catalyzed by PdCl2(Ph3P)2 fO.Ol mol%) was carried out by heating its mixture with acetic-anhydride at 250 C to afford the terminal alkene 888 with high selectivity and high catalyst turnover number (12 370). The reaction may proceed by the oxidative addition of Pd to the mixed anhydride[755]. 

The algorithms of the mixed classical-quantum model used in HyperChem are different for semi-empirical and ab mi/io methods. The semi-empirical methods in HyperChem treat boundary atoms (atoms that are used to terminate a subset quantum mechanical region inside a single molecule) as specially parameterized pseudofluorine atoms. However, HyperChem will not carry on mixed model calculations, using ab initio quantum mechanical methods, if there are any boundary atoms in the molecular system. Thus, if you would like to compute a wavefunction for only a portion of a molecular system using ab initio methods, you must select single or multiple isolated molecules as your selected quantum mechanical region, without any boundary atoms. 

Note The capping atoms are only supported in the semi-empirical quantum mechanics methods in HyperChem. If you want to use the mixed model in the ab mi/io method in HyperChem, you must select an entire molecule or molecules without any boundary atom between the selected and unselected regions and then carry out the calculation.

Choosing a Mobile Phase Several indices have been developed to assist in selecting a mobile phase, the most useful of which is the polarity index. Table 12.3 provides values for the polarity index, P, of several commonly used mobile phases, in which larger values of P correspond to more polar solvents. Mobile phases of intermediate polarity can be fashioned by mixing together two or more of the mobile phases in Table 12.3. For example, a binary mobile phase made by combining solvents A and B has a polarity index, of... 

An enzyme digest is the term applied to a process whereby a peptide or protein is mixed with a selected enzyme under favorable conditions to allow reaction to occur. The enzyme splits the peptide or protein into smaller units that are easier to identify. 

Today the most efficient catalysts are complex mixed metal oxides that consist of Bi, Mo, Fe, Ni, and/or Co, K, and either P, B, W, or Sb. Many additional combinations of metals have been patented, along with specific catalyst preparation methods. Most catalysts used commercially today are extmded neat metal oxides as opposed to supported impregnated metal oxides. Propylene conversions are generally better than 93%. Acrolein selectivities of 80 to 90% are typical. 

The vapor-phase reduction of acrolein with isopropyl alcohol in the presence of a mixed metal oxide catalyst yields aHyl alcohol in a one-pass yield of 90.4%, with a selectivity (60) to the alcohol of 96.4%. Acrolein may also be selectively reduced to yield propionaldehyde by treatment with a variety of reducing reagents. 

Although acrylonitrile manufacture from propylene and ammonia was first patented in 1949 (30), it was not until 1959, when Sohio developed a catalyst capable of producing acrylonitrile with high selectivity, that commercial manufacture from propylene became economically viable (1). Production improvements over the past 30 years have stemmed largely from development of several generations of increasingly more efficient catalysts. These catalysts are multicomponent mixed metal oxides mostly based on bismuth—molybdenum oxide. Other types of catalysts that have been used commercially are based on iron—antimony oxide, uranium—antimony oxide, and tellurium-molybdenum oxide. 

Physical Equilibria and Solvent Selection. In order for two separate Hquid phases to exist in equiHbrium, there must be a considerable degree of thermodynamically nonideal behavior. If the Gibbs free energy, G, of a mixture of two solutions exceeds the energies of the initial solutions, mixing does not occur and the system remains in two phases. Eor the binary system containing only components A and B, the condition (22) for the formation of two phases is... 

Lurgi oHdi-none (NMP) water (12—20) or monoethyl-ene glycol (40—50 wt %) must be added to the NMP to increase the selectivity and to decrease the boiling point of the solvent the NMP—water proc-esses use pentane countersolvent NMP—water, 35 mix-ter—setder, 24—30 stages, up to 8 m in diameter component required depends on the aromatics content of the feed... 

Selectivity. Solvent selectivity is intimately linked to the purity of the recovered extract, and obtaining a purer extract can reduce the number and cost of subsequent separation and purification operations. In aqueous extractions pH gives only limited control over selectivity greater control can be exercised using organic solvents. Use of mixed solvents, for example short-chain alcohols admixed with water to give a wide range of compositions, can be beneficial in this respect (6).
