Sulfonate ion

Strong acids are able to donate protons to a reactant and to take them back. Into this class fall the common acids, aluminum hahdes, and boron trifluoride. Also acid in nature are silica, alumina, alumi-nosihcates, metal sulfates and phosphates, and sulfonated ion exchange resins. They can transfer protons to hydrocarbons acting as weak bases. Zeolites are dehydrated aluminosilicates with small pores of narrow size distribution, to which is due their highly selective action since only molecules small enough to enter the pores can reacl . 

Esterification and etherification may be catalyzed by mineral acids or BF3. The reaction of isobutylene with methanol to make MTBE is catalyzed by a sulfonated ion exchange resin. 

Hydrolysis of esters is speeded up by both acids and bases. Soluble aflcylaiyl sulfonic acids or sulfonated ion exchange resins are suitable. 

A sulfonated ion exchanger catalyst (Research Institute of Synthetic Resins and Varnishes, Pardubice, Czechoslovakia) was a macroreticular styrene-divinylbenzene copolymer containing 25% divinylbenzene and 2.4 meq/g of —SO3H groups. It was dried prior to using at 90°C/14 Torr. The BET surface area, determined in a dry state, was 49 m2/g, and the mean pore size was around 100 A. 

To determine secondary alkanesulfonates in sewage wastewaters, solid phase extraction (SPE) and a single-step procedure which combines elution and injection port derivatization for analysis with GC-MS were developed [36]. Again a tetrabutylammonium ion pair reagent was employed both to elute the secondary alkanesulfonates as their ion pairs from CI8-bonded silica disks and to derivatize sulfonate ion pairs under GC injection port conditions. Secondary alkanesulfonates were effectively recovered from samples of raw sewage (>92%) and from primary (>98%) and secondary (>85%) effluents. No... 

Polyphosphazenes sulfonates XIX with the anion covalently attached to the polymer are a new class of cation conductors that have been synthesized by Shriver [625]. They were obtained by reaction of Na0C2H4S03Na with an excess of polydichlorophosphazene in the presence of 15-crown-5, followed by the reaction of the partially substituted product with the sodium salt of poly(ethylene glycol methyl ether). The conductivity at 80 °C of the polymer with x=1.8, m=7.22 is 1.7x10 S cm This low conductivity can be attributed to an extensive ion pair formation between the sodium and sulfonate ions.

Most studies of micellar systems have been carried out on synthetic surfactants where the polar or ionic head group may be cationic, e.g. an ammonium or pyridinium ion, anionic, e.g. a carboxylate, sulfate or sulfonate ion, non-ionic, e.g. hydroxy-compound, or zwitterionic, e.g. an amine oxide or a carboxylate or sulfonate betaine. Surfactants are often given trivial or trade names, and abbreviations based on either trivial or systematic names are freely used (Fendler and Fendler, 1975). Many commercial surfactants are mixtures so that purity can be a major problem. In addition, some surfactants, e.g. monoalkyl sulfates, decompose slowly in aqueous solution. Some examples of surfactants are given in Table 1, together with values of the critical micelle concentration, cmc. This is the surfactant concentration at the onset of micellization (Mukerjee and Mysels, 1970) and can therefore be taken to be the maximum concentration of monomeric surfactant in a solution (Menger and Portnoy, 1967). Its value is related to the change of free energy on micellization (Fendler and Fendler, 1975 Lindman and Wennerstrom, 1980). 

Crystal structures are available for many (N)4Co-amino acid complexes (Table I). Many of the diastereomers (AS, AS) in the bis-en series have been resolved using classic crystallization (usually via bromocamphor sulfonate, arsenyl-, or antimonyl-tartrate salts) or ion exchange methods (Table II). Reversed-phase ion-pair HPLC, using aryl phosphate or aryl/alkyl sulfonate ion pairing reagents in MeOH/ H20 eluent, has allowed diastereomer separations to be carried out on analytical amounts (28) (Table II). 

The esterification of acetic acid with ethanol using sulfonic ion-exchange resins as catalyst/selective sorbent was studied by Mazzotti et al. [164]. The authors developed a detailed mathematical model, which was able to predict correctly the system s behavior. They succeeded in obtaining 100% conversion of acetic acid in addition to a complete separation. Several other studies involving enzymatic reactions were also carried out and will be presented in more detail in the next section. 

The value of 0.05 M from equation (7) is consistent with values of A as < 1 and ( /fes) < 1 for reactions in water. For example, = 0.3 gives (Jdjki ) = 0.17 for the relative rate constants for addition of solvent to the carbocation-anion pair and free carbocation. By comparison, the three-fold smaller rate constant for addition of water to an intramolecular trityl carbocation-sulfonate ion pair compared with addition to the analogous substituted trityl carbocation o-sulfonyl methyl ester has been used to estimate a value of (kjk ) = 0.33.

Petersen et al., Petersen and Voth,i Spohr, Spohr et al., and Walbran and Kornyshev developed EVB-based models to study the effect of con-finemenf in nanometer-sized pores and fhe role of acid-functionalized polymer walls on solvation and transport of protons in PEMs. The calculations by the Voth group revealed an inhibiting effect of sulfonate ions on proton motions. The EVB model by Kornyshev, Spohr, and Walbran was specifically designed to sfudy effecfs on proton mobilify due to charge delocalization within SOg groups, side chain packing density, and fluctuations... 

The nature of X in the initial CgHi3C H(Me)X defines the relation between the two routes. If X = Br, the configuration inversion does not exceed 8%. If X = OSOjMe, the inversion takes place up to 25%. The bromide ion is more active in elimination than methyl sulfonate ion. Therefore, the electron-transfer contribution to the substitution reaction is higher.

The effect of carboxylate and/or sulfonate ion incorporation on the physical and blood contacting properties of polyurethanes was studied by Cooper and collaborators [476-478]. Specifically, propyl sulfonate and ethyl carboxylate groups were grafted onto polytetramethylene oxide-based polyurethanes. Carboxylate polymers had no statistically significant effect on canine ex vivo blood contact response, but propyl sulfonate incorporation significantly reduced platelet deposition for very short blood contact times.
