Because economizer tube bundles produce very hot FW within the tubes, they may be subject to serious waterside corrosion and deposition problems, in addition to gas-side dust erosion problems and cold-end acid attack from sulfuric acid (derived from sulfur-containing fuels). 

HAL [Hot acid leaching] A process for purifying silica sand or zircon by leaching out surface iron compounds with hot sulfuric acid. Derived from an earlier process, invented in 1955 by British Industrial Sand, in which silica sand was treated with hot, gaseous hydrogen chloride. The process for cleaning zircon sand was developed jointly by Hepworth Minerals Chemicals, UK, and Metallurgical Services Pty, Australia, in 1991. 

The l3C chemical shifts of methyl derivatives with sulfur substituents [e.g., SH, -S, -SCH3, -SSCH3, -SSSCHj, -S(0)CH3, -S02CH3, -S(CH3)2+, -SC(0)CH3, -SC(S)CH3, and -SC(S)SCH3] (130,131) and of vicinal and gem-inal bis-sulfides (290) have been reported. Freeman and co-workers have published similar studies on thiols, sulfides, disulfides, and sulfinic and sulfonic acid derivatives (131,132,433) and Tseng and Bowler (434), on thiocarbamates, their S-oxides and S,5-dioxides [R-X-C(0)-NR 2 with X = S, SO, S02]. 

Most reactions of sulfuric and phosphoric acid derivatives can be rationalized by considering that the S=0 and P=0 functionalities are equivalent to the carbonyl group, and that polarization in these groups allows similar nucleophilic reactions to occur. Initial nucleophilic addition will then be followed by loss of an appropriate leaving group and regeneration of the S=0 or P=0. 

We conclude this section by noting that, as in the case of other acids, there are various sulfonic and sulfuric acid derivatives including esters and amides. Fig. 2.20 shows two examples of sulfonic acid amides that are representatives of important groups of drugs (sulfodiazine) and herbicides (sulfometuron), respectively. 

The stereochemistry of cathodic hydrogenation is thus far not predictable or explainable. There is a preponderance for trans addition in the reduction of al-kynes, while cis addition occurs predominantly with cis- and trans-stilbene and maleic acid derivatives. On the other hand, dimethylmaleic acid and dimethyl-fumaric acid are exclusively hydrogenated to the trans products, meso- and dl-di-methylsuccinic acid 302 With a silver-palladium cathode in 5% aquous sulfuric acid triple bonds are reduced in a specific cis addition to double bonds 303 ... 

Substrates usefully employed in Mannich reactions are, in general, XH compounds having nucleophilic properties, with X being equal to C, N, or other heteroatoms (Fig. 4). In particular, CH compounds are suitably activated saturated and unsaturated derivatives, and NH substrates may be amines, amides, hetcrocyclcs, etc. Out of OH sub-stratcs, alcohols are mainly able to give stable Mannich products. Sulfur- and phosphorus-containing substrates are XH derivatives having the H atom bonded to the hetcroatom in the lower oxidation state, i.e., thiols, sulfinic acids, and, respectively, phosphine and phosphorous acid derivatives. As and Se compounds have also been successfully used. All these substrates are listed in more detail in Sec. D of this chapter. 

Olio di sgocciolamento (Drip 03 in the USA and Tropfol in Germany. A crude, commercial, black, oily substance resulting from the two-stage nitration of toluene in the manuf of TNT. Its main constituents are isomers of DNT with small quantities of isomers of TNT and some other aromatic nitrocompounds. It has been used as an antifreeze addn to Dynamites, such as in Dinamiti incongelabili in some AN expls and as a gelatinizer of NC used in some propints. Due to the fact that its composition is variable, and it contains some sulfuric acid derivatives, its use in military expls is not recommended. ... 

Volcanic smog (known as vog) is a mixture of atmospheric gases and suspended liquid and solid particles. It forms by the reaction of sulfur dioxide and other volcanic gases with atmospheric moisture, gases, dust, and sunlight (Sutton et al, 1997). Vog consists primarily of sulfuric acid and other sulfate compounds, and can contain a variety of heavy metals, including selenium, mercury, and arsenic (Sutton et al, 1997). Laze, a volcanic haze, forms when molten lava flows into the sea and vaporizes seawater (Sutton et al, 1997). It has many of the same characteristics as vog, with the exception that it probably contains higher levels of chloride and hydrochloric acid derived from seawater. 

Compound classes, not previously described (eg. 5- and 6-membered heteroarenes) Compound classes, for which, in the meantime, significant improvements and progresses have been made, for example carbonic acid derivatives, carboxylic acids and carboxylic acid derivatives, aldehydes, carbonyl derivatives, halogen compounds, peroxides, sulfur, selenium, tellurium, nitrogen and phosphorus compounds. 

Activation of aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids with sulfuric acid derivatives yields amides (Table 3). Sulfuryl chloride fluoride and primary amines or chlorosulfonyl isocyanate and secondary amines are used as reaction partners. 

The cooled fusion melt is leached with minimum amount of water to dissolve out the sodium cresolates and the resultant slurry is centrifuged to recover the sodium sulfite which is always associated with small quantities of sodium carbonate and sodium sulfate. Sodium carbonate is formed mainly by reaction between the molten alkali and atmospheric CO2. Sodium sulfate is produced from the sulfuric acids derived by hydrolysis of the sulfonic acids by the superheated steam produced during the reaction. 

As is shown in Scheme 6 and Table 1, alkynyl sulfides can be employed in the asymmetric [2-1-2] cycloaddition reaction however, the reactivity of alkynyl sulfides is largely dependent on the substituent at sulfur. A phenyl sulfide, 1-phenylthio-l-hexyne (5e), does not react with 2a, while the alkynyl methyl sulfides 5a-d react smoothly with fumaric and acryUc acid derivatives 2a,c, yielding cyclobutenes 6. Trisubstituted cyclobutenes are prepared in good yield and in almost enantiomerically pure forms with only a catalytic amount of the chiral titanium reagent. For the preparation of tetrasubstituted cyclobutenes, however, an equimolar amount of the chiral titanium is required for the reaction to go to completion. Compared with the ketene dimethyldithioacetal 3a, alkynyl methyl sulfides 5 are less reactive and the reaction between the crotonoyloxazo-lidinone 2b and 5 fails even in the presence of an equimolar amount of the catalyst.

Phosphoric and sulfuric acid derivatives possess crucial properties that allow them to uniquely fill their many roles in biochemistry. Phosphoric acid may be esterified to form a monoester, diester, or triester (Figure 1). Sulfuric acid may be esterified at one or two positions, to form a monoester or a diester. Sulfate diesters are highly reactive, and have not been found in nature nor do phosphate triesters occur naturally. The hydrolysis of both phosphate and sulfate esters are thermodynamically favorable, but nucleophiles are repelled by the negative charge of the ionized forms. The resulting kinetic stability of phosphate monoesters and diesters, and of sulfate monoesters, is a major factor in their suitability for biological roles. For example, the half-life for hydrolysis of alkyl phosphate dianions by water is approximately 1.1 X 10 years k=2 x 10 s ) at 25°C. Such species... 

Thioamides have become a ubiquitous but important class of compounds - much like ordinary organic compounds such as aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acid derivatives - and extensive studies into their syntheses and reactions have been carried out in recent years. When an oxygen atom in an amide is replaced with a sulfur atom, the compounds become less polar and more soluble in various organic solvents. They are reactive but still stable enough to be handled in air. Therefore, a tremendous number of studies have been made into their fundamental properties, biological aspects, and broad applicabilities. Theoretical studies into the rotational barriers that exist in the thioformamides 4 and the thioacetamides 5 have also been made (for example [1]). 

The very first attempts to generate carbene were made at a time when the quadrivalency of carbon was not yet established. Thus Duma (1835) [6] and Renault (1839) [7] tried to dehydrate methanol by means of phosphorus pen-toxide or concentrated sulfuric acid. A second period of carbene research was initiated by the discovery of isonitrile and fulminic acid derivatives in the late 19 century. Nef stimulated by his own work in this field, attempted to inter-... 

Source of Sulfur Acid Derivatives. Removal of the trimethylsilylethyl group can also occur when the sulfur is in a higher oxidation state. Such a process will liberate a sulfur acid derivative and following this theme, two major areas of focus exist in the literature.
