In spite of their rather complicated chemical structure, which consequently involves rather expensive production costs, the bis-phenol A polycarbonates have achieved an important place amongst the speeiality plastics materials. 

Although phenolic resins have been known and widely utilised for over 60 years their detailed chemical structure remains to be established. It is now known that the resins are very complex and that the various structures present will depend on the ratio of phenol to formaldehyde employed, the pH of the reaction mixture and the temperature of the reaction. Phenolic resin chemistry has been discussed in detail elsewhere and will be discussed only briefly here. 

Other chemicals such as hydroquinone and resorcinol, widely used in cosmetic dermatology, share a similar chemical structure with phenol (Fig. 8.1). 

PCDFs are similar in many respects to PCDDs but have been less well studied, and will be mentioned only briefly here. Their chemical structure is shown in Figure 7.1. Like PCDDs, they can be formed by the interaction of chlorophenols, and are found in commercial preparations of chlorinated phenols and in products derived from phenols (e.g., 2,4,5-T and related phenoxyalkanoic herbicides). They are also present in commercial polychlorinated biphenyl (PCB) mixtures, and can be formed... 

The final structure of resins produced depends on the reaction condition. Formaldehyde to phenol (F/P) and hydroxyl to phenol (OH/P) molar ratios as well as ruction temperahne were the most important parameters in synthesis of resols. In this study, the effect of F/P and OH/P wt%, and reaction temperature on the chemical structure (mono-, di- and trisubstitution of methyrol group, methylene bridge, phenolic hemiformals, etc.) was studied utilizing a two-level full factorial experimental design. The result obtained may be applied to control the physical and chemical properties of pre-polymer. 

A large variety of phytochemicals are found within agricultural commodities. This chapter focuses on four main groups phenolics, carotenoids, sterols, and alkaloids. In addition, recent research related to the health benefits of these phytochemicals will be briefly reviewed. Table 9.1 summarizes the main chemical structure and solubility in organic solvents of phytochemicals such as phenolics (flavonoids), carotenoids, sterols, and alkaloids. 

In the Colour Index both conventional sulphur dyes and their leuco counterparts are allocated the same Cl constitution number a different number is given to the related solubilised version. Thus, for example, Cl Sulphur Black 1 and Cl Leuco Sulphur Black 1 have the reference Cl 53185 whereas Cl Solubilised Sulphur Black 1 appears under Cl 53186. Because of the complexity of the final products, sulphur dyes are classified according to the chemical structure of the organic starting material that predominates in the manufacturing process. Typical intermediates include aromatic amines, with or without nitro and phenolic groups, and diphenylamine derivatives. 

Bisphenols is a broad term that includes many chemicals with the common chemical structure of two phenolic rings joined together by a bridging carbon. Bisphenol A is a monomer widely used in the manufacture of epoxy and phenolic resins, polycarbonates, polyacrylates and corrosion-resistant unsaturated polyester-styrene resins. It can be found in a diverse range of products, including the interior coatings of food cans and filters, water containers, dental composites and sealants. [4]. BPA and BP-5 were selected for testing by the whole... 

Flavonoids are secondary metabolites generally occurring in various plants as glycosides. The chemical structure of flavonoids shows high variety. The basic structure of flavons and flavonols is the 2-phenylbenzo-gamma-pyrone. Flavonoids generally contain two phenol rings linked with a linear three-carbon chain (chalcones) or with three carbon... 

Fig. 3.38.The IUPAC names of Sudan azo dyes are as follows Sudan 1 = 1— [(2,4-dimethylphenyl)azo]-2-naphtalenol Sudan II = l-(phenylazo)-2-naphtol Sudan III = l-(4-phenylazophenylazo)-2-naphtol Sudan IV = o-tolyazo-o-tolyazo-beta-naphtol and Disperse Orange 13 = 4-[4-(phenylazo)-l-naphtylazo]-phenol. Azo dyes were separated in an ODS column (250 x 2.1 mm i.d. particle size 5 /xm) at 35°C. The isocratic mobile phase consisted of 0.1 per cent formic acid in methanol-0.1 per cent formic acid in water (97 3, v/v). The flow rate was 200 /xl/min. MS conditions were nebulizing and desolvation gas were nitrogen at the flow rates of 50 and 5551/h, respectively electrospray voltage, 3.0 kV cone voltage 25 V source temperature, 110°C desolvation temperature, 110°C. Azo dyes were extracted from the samples by homogenizing 1 g of sample with 10 ml of acetone, then the suspension was centrifuged and an aliquot of 3 ml of supernatant was mixed with 1 ml of deionized water, filtered and used for analysis. LC-ESI-MS/Ms SRM traces of standards and spiked samples are listed in Fig. 3.39. It was found that the detection and quantitation limits depended on both the chemical structure of the dye and the character of the accompanying matrix. LOD and LOQ values in chilli tomato sauce...

This is perhaps the most complicated part of the overall process of lignification, for the changes that take place in the monomer units during their polymerization to lignin are no longer of a straightforward biochemical nature. It is now known that the polymerization is initiated by a simple enzymatic phenolic dehydrogenation that leads to a vast variety of complicated chemical structures.

The familiar positive photoresists. Hunt s HPR, Shipley s Microposit, Azoplate s AZ etc., are all two-component, resist systems, consisting of a phenolic resin matrix material and a diazonaphthoquinone sensitizer. The matrix material is essentially inert to photochemistry and was chosen for its film-forming, adhesion, chemical and thermal resistance characteristics. The chemistry of the resist action only occurs in the sensitizer molecule, the diazonaphthoquinone. A detailed description of these materials, their chemical structures and radiation chemistry will be discussed in Section 3.5.b. 

To elucidate some enzymatic characteristics of the isolated laccases I, II, and III, substrate specificities for several simple phenols, electrophoresis patterns, ultraviolet spectra, electron spin resonance spectra, copper content, and immunological similarities were investigated. Tyrosine, tannic acid, g c acid, hydroquinone, catechol, pyrogallol, p-cresol, homocatechol, a-naphthol, -naphthol, p-phenylenediamine, and p-benzoquinone as substrates. No differences in the specificities of these substrates was found. The UV spectra for the laccases under stucfy are shown in Figure 4. Laccase III displays three adsorption bands (280, 405, and 600nm), laccase II shows one band 280nm), and laccase I shows two bands (280 and 405 nm). These data appear to indicate differences in chemical structure. The results of the copper content analysis (10) and two-dimensional electrophoresis also indicate that these fractions are completely different proteins (10), Therefore, we may expect differences in substrate specificities between the three laccase fractions for more lignin-like substrates, yet no difference for some simple phenolic substrates.
