PCC.

Conditions that do permit the easy isolation of aldehydes in good yield by oxida tion of primary alcohols employ various Cr(VI) species as the oxidant in anhydrous media Two such reagents are pyndmium chlorochromate (PCC), CsHsNH ClCr03 ... 

PCC IS pyridinium chlorochromate PDC is pyridinium dichromate Both are used in dichloromethane ... 

Oxidation of primary alcohols to aide hydes (Section 15 10) Pyridinium di chromate (PDC) or pyridinium chloro chromate (PCC) in anhydrous media such as dichloromethane oxidizes primary al cohols to aldehydes while avoiding over oxidation to carboxylic acids... 

Oxidation of secondary alcohols to ke tones (Section 15 10) Many oxidizing agents are available for converting sec ondary alcohols to ketones PDC or PCC may be used as well as other Cr(VI) based agents such as chromic acid or po tassium dichromate and sulfuric acid... 

Aldehydes are more easily oxidized than alcohols which is why special reagents such as PCC and PDC (Section 15 10) have been developed for oxidizing primary alco hols to aldehydes and no further PCC and PDC are effective because they are sources of Cr(VI) but are used m nonaqueous media (dichloromethane) By keeping water out of the reaction mixture the aldehyde is not converted to its hydrate which is the nec essary intermediate that leads to the carboxylic acid... 

Pauli exclusion principle (Section 1 1) No two electrons can have the same set of four quantum numbers An equivalent expression is that only two electrons can occupy the same orbital and then only when they have opposite spins PCC (Section 15 10) Abbreviation for pyndimum chlorochro mate C5H5NH" ClCr03 When used in an anhydrous medium PCC oxidizes pnmary alcohols to aldehydes and secondary alcohols to ketones... 

PDC (Section 15 10) Abbreviation for pyndinium dichromate (C5H5NH)2 Cr207 Used in same manner and for same purposes as PCC (see preceding entry) n Pentane (Section 2 10) The common name for pentane CH3CH2CH2CH2CH3... 

The Food Chemicals Codex. The Food Chemicals Codex is developed by the Committee on Pood Chemicals Codex, which is a part of the Pood and Nutrition Board, Institute of Medicine, National Academy of Sciences, under a contract with the U.S. PDA. The Committee has the responsibihty for the development and revision of the PCC. To meet this responsibiUty, the Committee also contacts manufacturers, trade associations, and other knowledgeable parties to obtain comments and criticisms of monographs proposed by the committee. Broader pubHc input is sought by pubhcation, by the PDA in the FederalFegister, of current committee activity regarding new and revised monographs proposed for inclusion in the PCC. 

Different reagents react with different bonds in the same molecule. PCC represents pyridinium chlorochromate. 

PCC = process control computer PLC = programmable logic controller and PGCS = process gas chromatograph system. 

Sulfur polymer cement shows promise as an encapsulation and stabilization agent for use with low level radioactive and mixed wastes. Use of SPC allows accommodation of larger percentages of waste than PCC. As of this writing (1997), SPC-treated waste forms have met requirements of both the Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 

Et3NH ClCi03, CICH2CH2CI, 2 h, it, 60-90% yield. This reagent was reported to work better than PCC (pyridinium chlorochromate). 

These receive power from the PCC and feed it to a number of load points, the majority of them being motors operating on an electrical installation or a process line. 

When there is only one process line and one MCC alone is adequate to control the entire process, it is possible to combine the PCC and the MCC into one unit to save on space and cost. The assembly may now be called a PMCC (power-cum-motor control centre).
