Sizing compounds silanes

Both materials were tested as catalysts in the anisole acylation (Scheme 1). The conventional Beta sample showed a slightly higher activity than the Beta (PHAPTMS). At 3 hours, the conversions were 26.8 and 22.8 % for the conventional and seed silanized catalysts, respectively. This behavior is explained as a consequence of the relatively small size of the anisole molecule, which allows this compound to diffuse without significant hindrances through the zeolitic micropores, and of the slightly weaker acidity of the Beta (PHAPTMS) sample. In both cases, p-methoxyacetophenone (p-MAP) was the main reaction product, being obtained with a high selectivity (> 97%). 

Sample Extraction for the Two-Vessel Setup. The extraction of the 36 nitroaromatic compounds from sand spiked at 600 ng/g (per analyte) was begun at 150 atm/50°C/10 min (dynamic), continued at 200 atm/60°C/10 min (dynamic), and completed at 250 atm/70°C/10 min (dynamic) using carbon dioxide only. Sample size was 2.5 g. For all the experiments reported in this paper, the sample was sandwiched between two plugs of silanized glass wool to fill out the void volume. Two spiked samples identified as Experiments 1 and 2 in Figures 3a and 3b were extracted in parallel using the same conditions. Two additional sand samples spiked at the same concentration were extracted in parallel at 300 atm/70°C/30 min (dynamic) and are identified in Figures 3a and 3b as Experiments 3 and 4. To verify the completeness of the SFE technique, we collected an additional fraction for Experiments 1 and 2 at 300 atm/70°C/30 min (dynamic). No compounds were detected in the second fraction. 

Stationary phases for modern, reversed-phase liquid chromatography typically consist of an organic phase chemically bound to silica or other materials. Particles are usually 3, 5, or 10 p,m in diameter, but sizes may range up to 50 p,m for preparative columns. Small particles thinly coated with organic phase allow fast mass transfer and, hence, rapid transfer of compounds between the stationary and mobile phases. Column polarity depends on the polarity of the bound functional groups, which range from relatively nonpolar octadecyl silane to very polar nitrile groups. 

The chemical shift data available for cyclic silanes (32,62-71) show definite trends with the size of the ring into which the silicon atom is incorporated. Compounds [1 ] [6] in Table IV show the deshielding...
