Ion-radical reactions require special methods to stimulate or impede them. The specificity of these methods is determined with particular properties of ion-radicals. Many ion-radical syntheses are highly selective yielding products unattainable by other methods. The aim of this chapter is to analyze the phenomena that determine the ways to optimize ion-radical reactions. This chapter considers factors governing the development of the reactions with proven ion-radical mechanisms. Two groups of optimizing factors will be discussed physical and purely chemical ones. Factors such as solvent change and salt addition are certainly in the borderline between chemical and physical effects. 

The drawback of Taguchi designs is the relatively large number of experiments to perform. No case studies that optimize factors and at the same time test their ruggedness towards noise factors in the field of analytical chemistry are known to us. 

Multivariable controls (MVCs) are particularly well suited for controlling highly interactive fractionators where several control loops need to be simultaneously decoupled. MVCs can simultaneously consider all the process lags, and apply safety constraints and economic optimization factors in determining the required manipulations to the process. The technique of multivariable control requires the development of dynamic models based on fractionator testing and data collection. Multivariable control applies the dynamic models and historical information to predict future fractionator characteristics. For towers that are subject to many constraints, towers that have severe interactions, and towers with complex configurations, multivariable control can be a valuable tool. 

An ID fan, which minimizes leakage of polluted air, is normally used to maintain airflow through the process and to overcome the total system pressure drop, typically measured in centimeters of water. The optimum design temperature is determined by the tradeoff between solubility, which decreases with temperature, and biological kinetics, which increases. Another optimization factor is how much heating or cooling is necessary for the inlet stream. Operation is...

Aqueous sodium hypochlorite is another low-priced oxidant. Very efficient oxidative systems were developed which contain a meso-tetraarylporphyrinato-Mn(III) complex salt as the metal catalyst and a QX as the carrier of hypochlorite from the water phase to the organic environment. These reactions are of interest also as cytochrome P-450 models. Early experiments were concerned with epoxidations of alkenes, oxidations of benzyl alcohol and benzyl ether to benzaldehyde, and chlorination of cyclohexane at room temperature or 0°C. A certain difficulty arose from the fact that the porphyrins were not really stable under the reaction conditions. Several research groups published extensively on optimization, factors governing catalytic efficiency, and stability of the catalysts. Most importantly, axial ligands on the Mn porphyrin (e.g., substituted imidazoles, 4-substituted pyridines and their N-oxides), 2 increases rates and selectivities. This can be demonstrated most impressively with pyridine ligands directly tethered to the porphyrin [72]. Secondly, 2,4- and 2,4,6-trihalo- or 3,5-di-tert-butyl-substituted tetraarylporphyrins are more... 

The LCR conditions shown serve as one, specific example. For individual applications, conditions must be optimized. We have found the critical optimization factors to be probe concentration, annealing temperature, cycle number, and ligase concentration. Any commercially available thermophilic DNA ligase should be suitable with a compatible buffer. We have had good success with ligase purified from Tkermus thermophilis. Since there is no universally accepted enzyme unit definition, the optimal amount of enzyme to use must be determined experimentally. 

In general, chiral resolution by CE is very sensitive and is controlled by a number of parameters. The optimization factors may be categorized into two classes, the independent and dependent. The independent parameters, which are under the direct control of the operator, include the choice of buffer, the pH of the buffer, the ionic strength of the buffer, the type of chiral selector, the applied voltage, the temperature of the capillary, the dimensions of the capillary, the BGE additives and some other parameters. On the other hand, the dependent parameters, which are those that are directly affected by the independent parameters, and are not under the direct control of the operator, are the field strength (V m ), the EOF, the Joule heating, the BGE viscosity, the sample diffusion, the sample mobility, the sample charge, the sample size and shape, the interaction of the sample with the capillary and the BGE, the molar absorptivity and so on. Therefore,...

Due to the considerable differences in reactant chemistries and testing conditions between the cells presented in Table 6.1, it is difficult to draw final conclusions about which specific device architecture may be optimal. Factors such as reactant species, reactant and electrolyte concentration, flow rate, temperature, separators, patterned electrodes, and the presence of catalysts can all significantly affect the power output of a device. Power density comparisons would ideally be made with devices benchmarked at standardized conditions for example, a liquid/liquid cell could be benchmarked at room temperature with standardized vanadium electrolytes (e.g., 1 M vanadium in 1 M sulfuric acid) and widely available porous carbon electrodes (e.g., Toray carbon paper). Conducting polarization curve and impedance measurements at a range of flow rates would enable full characterization of fuel utilization, mass transport, and ohmic losses which are inherent to the cell structure, and the peak volumetric power density measurements would then enable a direct comparison with other devices. 

Another important optimization factor is the development of selective catalysts for the glycosidation process so that for example the formation of polydextrose and etherification reactions can be suppressed. As already mentioned, acetalization or transacetalization in the Fischer synthesis is catalyzed by acids. In principle, any acids with sufficient strength are suitable for this purpose, such as sulfuric acid, paratoluene- and alkylbenzene sulfonic acid, and sulfosuccinic acid. The reaction rate depends on the acidity and the concentration of the acid in the alcohol.
