Poisoning partial

Hydrogenation of an alkyne can be stopped at the alkene stage by using a poisoned (partially deactivated) catalyst made by treating a good catalyst with a compound that makes the catalyst less effective. Lindlar s catalyst is a poisoned palladium catalyst, composed of powdered barium sulfate coated with palladium, poisoned with quinoline. Nickel boride (Ni2B) is a newer alternative to Lindlar s catalyst that is more easily made and often gives better yields. 

The reaction can be stopped at the alkene stage if a poisoned (partially deactivated) metal catalyst is used. The most commonly used partially deactivated metal catalyst is Lindlar catalyst, which is prepared by precipitating palladium on calcium carbonate and treating it with lead(II) acetate and quinoline. This treatment modifies the surface of the palladium, making it much more effective at catalyzing the addition of hydrogen to a triple bond than to a double bond. 

The reaction can be stopped at the alkene stage if a poisoned (partially deactivated) metal catalyst is used. The most common partially deactivated metal catalyst is known as Lindlar catalyst (Figure 7.4). 

Lindlar Catalyst ( Pd/BaS04/ quinoline)- partially poisoned to reduce activity will only reduce the most reactive functional groups. 

Both objectives have been met by designing special hydrogenation catalysts The most frequently used one is the Lindlar catalyst, a palladium on calcium carbonate combi nation to which lead acetate and quinoline have been added Lead acetate and quinoline partially deactivate ( poison ) the catalyst making it a poor catalyst for alkene hydro genation while retaining its ability to catalyze the addition of H2 to the triple bond... 

Table 3 provides typical specifications for isoprene that are suitable for Al—Ti polymerization (89). Traditional purification techniques including superfractionation and extractive distillation are used to provide an isoprene that is practically free of catalyst poisons. Acetylenes and 1,3-cyclopentadiene are the most difficult to remove, and distillation can be supplemented with chemical removal or partial hydrogenation. Generally speaking distillation is the preferred approach. Purity is not the main consideration because high quaUty polymer can be produced from monomer with relatively high levels of olefins and / -pentane. On the other hand, there must be less than 1 ppm of 1,3-cyclopentadiene. 

Bismuth subnitrate [1304-85-4] (basic bismuth nitrate) can be prepared by the partial hydrolysis of the normal nitrate with boiling water. It has been used as an antacid and in combination with iodoform as a wound dressing (183). Taken internally, the subnitrate may cause fatal nitrite poisoning because of the reduction of the nitrate ion by intestinal bacteria.

Hydrogenolysis of the acetylene-cumulenes 19 can be achieved by means of a partially poisoned palladium catalyst to yield the regular [22]porphyrin(2.2,2.2) 20 with cisjrans.cis,-trans configuration of the two-carbon bridges. 

Partially extracted Raney cobalt is very active, but it is easily poisoned by sulfur and tends to lay down carbon more readily than Raney nickel (21). Cobalt is less active than nickel and much less selective to methane... 

The results used for a subsequent comparison of catalytic activity of all group VIII metals are related by Mann and Lien to palladium studied at a temperature of 148°C. At this temperature the appearance of the hydride phase and of the poisoning effect due to it would require a hydrogen pressure of at least 1 atm. Although the respective direct experimental data are lacking, one can assume rather that the authors did not perform their experiments under such a high pressure (the sum of the partial pressures of both substrates would be equal to 2 atm). It can thus be assumed that their comparison of catalytic activities involves the a-phase of the Pd-H system instead of palladium itself, but not in the least the hydride. 

The catalytic system used in the Pacol process is either platinum or platinum/ rhenium-doped aluminum oxide which is partially poisoned with tin or sulfur and alkalinized with an alkali base. The latter modification of the catalyst system hinders the formation of large quantities of diolefins and aromatics. The activities of the UOP in the area of catalyst development led to the documentation of 29 patents between 1970 and 1987 (Table 6). Contact DeH-5, used between 1970 and 1982, already produced good results. The reaction product consisted of about 90% /z-monoolefins. On account of the not inconsiderable content of byproducts (4% diolefins and 3% aromatics) and the relatively short lifetime, the economics of the contact had to be improved. Each diolefin molecule binds in the alkylation two benzene molecules to form di-phenylalkanes or rearranges with the benzene to indane and tetralin derivatives the aromatics, formed during the dehydrogenation, also rearrange to form undesirable byproducts. 

Like reactive evaporation, reactive sputtering is used in the deposition of refractory compounds by providing a small partial pressure of hydrocarbons, nitrogen, or oxygen. A problem is target poisoning caused by the reaction of the target with the reactive gas. 

The rate of peroxide decomposition and the resultant rate of oxidation are markedly increased by the presence of ions of metals such as iron, copper, manganese, and cobalt [13]. This catalytic decomposition is based on a redox mechanism, as in Figure 15.2. Consequently, it is important to control and limit the amounts of metal impurities in raw rubber. The influence of antioxidants against these rubber poisons depends at least partially on a complex formation (chelation) of the damaging ion. In favor of this theory is the fact that simple chelating agents that have no aging-protective activity, like ethylene diamine tetracetic acid (EDTA), act as copper protectors. 

Hematological Effects. Leukocytosis and decreased platelet counts were reported in a group of subjects shortly after they ingested an unknown amount of endosulfan (Blanco-Coronado et al. 1992). One subject from that study, who eventually died, had prolonged partial thromboplastin time and prothrombin time with thrombocytopenia, and decreased fibrinogen two days after being admitted to the hospital. Elevated white cell count was also observed in an additional case of fatal acute poisoning with... 

Figure 7.21 shows the results for the ammonia synthesis on real catalysts in a reactor. The surface is predominantly covered by atomic nitrogen and by NH intermediates. This actually limits the rate of the reaction as soon as an appreciable partial pressure of ammonia has built up. In fact, ammonia poisons the reaction. 

Adzlc et al (25) have shown that partial coverage of the electrode by adsorbed Pb can substantially reduce the effects of poisoning, presumably by blocking the surface sites required by the adsorbed CO. This is nicely confirmed by spectroscopic measurements. Figure 8... 

Steady state measurements of NO decomposition in the absence of CO under potentiostatic conditions gave the expected result, namely rapid self-poisoning of the system by chemisorbed oxygen addition of CO resulted immediately in a finite reaction rate which varied reversibly and reproducibly with changes in catalyst potential (Vwr) and reactant partial pressures. Figure 1 shows steady state (potentiostatic) rate data for CO2, N2 and N2O production as a function of Vwr at 621 K for a constant inlet pressures (P no, P co) of NO and CO of 0.75 k Pa. Also shown is the Vwr dependence of N2 selectivity where the latter quantity is defined as...
