Reactions deleterious

These chemical effects become important in medicine because living systems operate mostly through the reactions of enzymes, which catalyze all sorts of metabolic reactions but are very sensitive to small changes in their environment. Such sensitivity can lead to preferential absorption of some deleterious isotopes in place of the more normal, beneficial ones. One example in metabolic systems can be found in the incorporation of a radioactive strontium isotope in place of calcium. [Pg.364]

The ethylene glycol liberated by reaction (5.L) is removed by lowering the pressure or purging with an inert gas. Because the ethylene glycol produced by reaction (5.L) is removed, proper stoichiometry is assured by proceeding via the intermediate, bis(2-hydroxyethyl) terephthalate otherwise the excess glycol used initially would have a deleterious effect on the degree of polymerization. Poly(ethylene terephthalate) is more familiar by some of its trade names Mylar as a film and Dacron, Kodel, or Terylene as fibers it is also known by the acronym PET. [Pg.302]

Equation 25 represents the reaction responsible for the removal of uv-B radiation (280—330 nm) that would otherwise reach the earth s surface. There is concern that any process that depletes stratospheric o2one will consequently increase uv-B (in the 293—320 nm region) reaching the surface. Increased uv-B is expected to lead to increased incidence of skin cancer and it could have deleterious effects on certain ecosystems. The first concern over depletion was from NO emissions from a fleet of supersonic transport aircraft that would fly through the stratosphere and cause reactions according to equations 3 and 26 (59) ... [Pg.380]

The typical fluorination apparatus used in the LaMar process for these reactions is simple in design (Fig. 4) (33). It is essential that the materials of constmction are resistant to fluorine (34). The presence of even traces of oxygen or moisture can have a deleterious effect and, therefore, extreme precautions must be taken to eliminate these contaminants. [Pg.276]

The solvent, magnesium, and RX can have a deleterious effect on the preparation of the Grignard reagent. Some of the problems are a homocoupled product, formation of RMg02X, and noniaitiated reaction of RX with Mg. Therefore, proper preparation and handling of each component must be carried out. [Pg.393]

The insulation on the conductor is therefore exposed to a considerable concentration of o2one and subjected to chemical reactions and mechanical erosion from the impingement of ions. This causes deleterious effects and shortens the life of the cable. [Pg.326]

Other Phases in Portland and Special Cements. In cements free lime, CaO, and periclase, MgO, hydrate to the hydroxides. The in situ reactions of larger particles of these phases can be rather slow and may not occur until the cement has hardened. These reactions then can cause deleterious expansions and even dismption of the concrete and the quantities of free CaO and MgO have to be limited. The soundness of the cement can be tested by the autoclave expansion test of Portiand cement ASTM C151 (24). [Pg.288]

The submitters report that the purity of the product is rather dependent upon the purity of the lithium used and that results can vary from batch to batch. In addition, they state that side reactions may be catalyzed by traces of heavy metals, that the degree of vigor in the initial reaction may influence the purity of the product owing to local overheating, and that increase in scale of this reaction is deleterious. [Pg.107]

Nitric oxide may induce deleterious effects when airway epithelial or immunological cells are exposed to mineral particles (asbestos, quartz). These particles also stimulate cells to produce NO in large quantities, but pulmonary cells are unable to destroy these particles, and a non-physiologically excess production of NO results, perhaps causing tissue damage due to a reaction of NO with cellular macromolecules. [Pg.284]

The deleterious effect of sulfur dioxide and sulfites in domestic water is increased corrosivity owing to the lowered pH. However, oxidation of sulfite to sulfate in aqueous solutions uses dissolved oxygen, and lliis may retard corrosion. While llte oxichition of sulfite and sulfiirous acid to sulfate and sulfuric acid in the atmosphere is an environmental concern, this reaction is too... [Pg.275]

Although the limited examples of AE reactions on 2,3Z-substituted allyl alcohols appear to give product epoxides in good enantioselectivity, the highly substituted nature of these olefins can have a deleterious effect on the reactivity. For example, Aiai has shown that the 2,3E-substituted allyl alcohol 30 can be epoxidized with either (-)-DET or (+)-DET in good yields and enantioselectivity. However, the configurational isomer 32 is completely unreactive using (-)-DET, even after a 34 h reaction time. [Pg.57]

The solution of 4-chloro-1-methylpiperidine in tetrahydrofuran was dried over calcium hydride at ice-bath temperature prior to use. When the addition of the halide was complete the reaction mixture was refluxed with stirring for one hour. In some subsequent experiments this period of refluxing was omitted with no deleterious result. [Pg.421]

These metals, when deposited on the E-cat catalyst, increase coke and gas-making tendencies of the catalyst. They cause dehydrogenation reactions, which increase hydrogen production and decrease gasoline yields. Vanadium can also destroy the zeolite activity and thus lead to lower conversion. The deleterious effects of these metals also depend on the regenerator temperature the rate of deactivation of a metal-laden catalyst increases as the regenerator temperature increases. [Pg.108]

Nickel in the feed is deposited on the surface of the catalyst, promoting undesirable dehydrogenation and condensation reactions. These nonselective reactions increase gas and coke production at the expense of gasoline and other valuable liquid products. The deleterious effects of nickel poisoning can be reduced by the use of antimony passivation. [Pg.325]

On the other hand, corrosion has been defined as the undesirable deterioration of a metal or alloy, i.e. an interaction of the metal with its environment that adversely affects those properties of the metal that are to be preserved. This definition —which will be referred to as the deterioration definition —is also applicable to non-metallic materials such as glass, concrete, etc. and embodies the concept that corrosion is always deleterious. However, the restriction of the definition to undesirable chemical reactions of a metal results in anomalies which will become apparent from a consideration of the following examples. [Pg.5]

The use of various heterocyclic additives in the MTO-catalyzed epoxidation has been demonstrated to be of great importance for substrate conversion, as well as for the product selectivity. With regard to selectivity, the role of the additive is obviously to protect the product epoxides from deleterious, acid-catalyzed (Brons-ted or Lewis acid) ring-opening reactions. This can be achieved by direct coordination of the heterocyclic additive to the rhenium metal, thereby significantly decreasing its Lewis acidity. In addition, the basic nature of the additives will increase the pH of the reaction media. [Pg.214]

Immune defense mechanisms can become deleterious for an individual when they are not controlled properly. Then they can cause disease. In such situations therapy is aimed to dampen immune reactions. Important examples are sqttic shock, allergy, autoimmune diseases, and chronic inflammatory diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis. Also, the success of organ transplantation... [Pg.615]
