Reactions of CpW(NO)(CH₂SiMe₃)₂ with Lewis acids : characteristic chemistry of CpW(NO)(CH₂SiMe₃)(CH₂CPh₃)Brunet, Nathalie January 1988 (has links)
The nitrosyl complex CpW(NO)R₂ (R = CH₂SiMe₃) forms 1:1 adducts via isonitrosyl linkages to Lewis acids such as AlMe₃ and Cp₃Er, i.e. CpWR₂(NO→A) (A = AlMe₃, ErCp₃). These adducts regenerate the starting dialkyl complex when treated with water. Protonation of CpW(NO)R₂ by HBF₄⋅0Me₂ can also be effected. Whether the site of protonation is the nitrogen or the oxygen atom of the nitrosyl ligand is not known with certainty, although O-protonation is postulated by analogy with the other Lewis-acid adducts of CpW(NO)R₂. In these adducts, the nitrosyl stretching frequency is shifted to lower wavenumbers relative to that of the parent dialkyl, to an extent which increases as harder Lewis acids are employed. The colour of the adducts also ranges from red to orange to yellow as progressively harder acids are used.
Treatment of CpW(NO) (CH₂SiMe₃)₂ with [Ph₃C]⁺ PF₆⁻ in Ch₂CL₂ results in electrophilic cleavage of a carbon-silicon bond to yield the mixed dialkyl CpW(NO)(CH₂SiMe₃)(CH₂CPh₃), which has been fully characterized by spectroscopic methods and by a single-crystal X-ray crystallographic study. The formation of Me₃SiF and PF₅ (coordinated to Lewis bases in the reaction mixture) as by-products of this reaction has been confirmed by ³¹P and ¹⁹F NMR spectroscopy of the reaction mixture in CD₂CL₂. Preliminary attempts to extend this novel reaction of a silicon-containing ligand by using other carbocations were unsuccessful. This is attributed to the high reactivity of the required carbocations and the large number of possible reaction sites on the metal complex. Some reactions of the mixed dialkyl CpW(NO)RR¹ (R = CH₂SiMe₃ R¹ = CH₂CPh₃) were found to be analogous to those of the parent CpW(NO)R₂, while other reactions followed a different course because of the ability of the CH₂CPh₃ ligand to orthometallate. Thus, CpW(NO)RR¹ is much less thermally stable than CpW(NO)R₂. As a solid or a solution in non-coordinating solvents, it decomposes in a matter of days at room temperatures to a mixture of products which were not identified. In acetonitrile solution, an orthometallated complex derived from CpW(NO)RR¹ can be trapped by coordination of solvent. The product CpW(NO)(CH₂C(C₆H₄)Ph₂)(NCMe) has been isolated and crystallographically characterized. Cyclic voltammograms of CpW(NO)R₂ and CpW(NO)RR¹ show that both complexes undergo an apparently chemically reversible reduction and an irreversible oxidation. The mixed dialkyl CpW(NO)RR¹ is somewhat easier both to reduce and to oxidize than CpW(NO)R₂.
Like CpW(NO)R₂, CpW(NO)RR¹ reversibly forms a 1:1 adduct with PMe₃.
Also analogously to CpW(NO)R₂, it reacts with 0₂ to form a 5:1 mixture of
dioxoalkyl complexes CpW(0)₂R and CpW(0)₂R¹, and with NO(g) to form 2
CpW(NO)R¹(ƞ² -0₂N₂R). In this product, insertion of NO has occurred
exclusively in the W-CH₂SiMe₃ bond. Upon photolysis, both complexes
CpW(NO)R¹¹(ƞ²-0₂N₂R) (R¹¹ = CH₂SiMe₃ or CH₂CPh₃) form dioxo alkyls CpW(O)₂R¹¹ in an unprecedented reaction.
The ability of CpW(NO)RR¹ to orthometallate also results in the
formation, when this complex is treated with sulphur, of CpW(O)(CH₂C(C₆H₄)Ph₂)-(SR). No analogue to this compound can be obtained from reaction of CpW(NO)R₂ with sulphur. The sequence of reactions leading to the formation of this product is not known. / Science, Faculty of / Chemistry, Department of / Graduate

Sledování obsahu organických kyselin v alkoholických nápojích / Monitoring of organic acid content in alcoholic drinksOstrihoňová, Katarína January 2017 (has links)
The aim of the thesis is determination and optimization of organic acids in beers using the methods of capillary isotachophoresis (CITP) and high performance liquid chromatography with diode array detection (HPLC/UV). Beer is a complicated matrix therefore the samples need pretreatment using solid phase extraction (SPE). The diploma thesis discusses the optimization of the analytical methods (HPLC/UV and CITP) and optimization of SPE. In the theoretical part, history, characterization and technology of beer production are presented. Further, characteristics of organic acids and methods for organic acid determination are also discussed. The experimental part deals with the preparation of solutions, tested samples, calibration samples. Parameters and procedures of analytical methods (HPLC/UV and CITP) and pretreatment using the solid phase extraction are also described in the experimental part. All results are summarized and compared with the current literature in discussion and conclusion. Eleven beer samples from the retail stores were analyzed. In all samples, six organic acids (lactic, oxalic, succinic, acetic, citric, benzoic) were determined by CITP and five organic acids (lactic, oxalic, succinic, acetic, citric) by HPLC/UV were determined. Results of this study give an overview of the organic acid contents in beer samples.

In Vitro and In Vivo Effects of an Encapsulated Butyric Acid and a Lactic Acid Producing Bacteria Used Alone or in CombinationDittoe, Dana Kristen 08 December 2017 (has links)
Lactic acid producing bacteria (LAB) and organic acids have been proposed as effective alternatives to antibiotics, however there is limited literature concerning their combination. Thus, the objective of this thesis was to investigate the effects of LAB, encapsulated butyric acid (EBA), and their combination. Under challenged conditions, the in vitro study demonstrated that both EBA and LAB were capable of reducing pathogen proliferation over time, with greater efficacy at lower initial concentration. However, EBA demonstrated a greater effectiveness on pathogen reduction. Under challenged conditions, the results of the in vivo study indicated that birds fed LAB performed comparatively to that of birds fed antibiotics concerning BW and FCR from d 0-45 and both diets enhanced gut physiology, pH and immune parameters. Overall, the results of the thesis indicate the ineffectiveness of combining EBA and LAB, while providing valuable evidence supporting LAB as an effective alternative to antibiotics.

The bromination of 1,1,1-Ethanetriacetic acidGurney, John A. 01 July 1958 (has links)
Essential to the entire field of Organic Chemistry is the nature of the carbon to carbon bond. Our current concepts and guiding principles concerning it are almost solely constructed from aliphatic compounds, certain simple ring species, and aromatic systems. Except for special cases, aliphatic and aromatic types are felt to be mildly strained or free from internal tension while the alicylic small and medium ring compounds are the so-called strained molecules. These strained compounds involve bending back or compression of two of the four carbon bonds from an equilibrium position. Distortions of more complex origin occur in the paracyclophanes and hexahelicine, etc. The theory considering strain of two of the four carbon bonds might well be extended to include three bonds. Simple caged compound core types testing three-bond strain. are the tetrahedron, trigonal prism , and cube. The successful synthesis of a unique compound, 4-methyl tricyclo[1.1.0.02-4] butane-1,2,3-tricarboxylic acid containing the three-bond strained tetrahedral core was reported by Beesley, Thorpe, and Ingold thirty eight years ago. With the exception of unsuccessful efforts by Woodward and Larson, this area of chemistry has remained virtually inactive since that time. Our reinvestigation of this remarkable synthesis has revealed method omissions vital to acquiring the compounds leading to l. These methods, a preliminary objective of this research and apparently commonplace in the laboratory of Thorpe, particularly involved the preparation of 1,1,1-ethane triacetic acid, II, and triethyl tribromo-1,1,1-ethane triacetate, III. The tri acid II was very difficult to purify by crystallizing with the techniques of frequent present-day use. Thorpe made no mention of temperature in his accounts, but obtained the acid in good condition. Our work has shown the acid can be easily purified by crystallizing from 50 % hydrochloric acid solution at 65°-70° C. This higher purity product can then be brominated with phosphorus pentabromide under special conditions. These are only partially stated by Thorpe. Our work has shown that III can be brominated by making phosphorus pentabromide in situ with slow bromine addition to a mixture of II and phosphorus tribromide. Compounds necessary to the acquisition of II and III are ethyl isodehydracetate IV, ethyl β-methyl glutaconate V, and ethyl a-cyano β,β-dimethylpropane tricarboxylate VI . Discussion of the plausible reasons for method omissions, the synthesis deletions and results of greater interest, reaction schemes leading each compound to it's successor, and the experimental details of compounds II through VI are presented in the Thesis. Appended is a proposed manuscript for publishing in the Journal of the American Chemical Society.

Characterisation of L-malic acid metabolism in strains of Saccharomyces and the development of a commercial wine yeast strain with an efficient malo-ethanolic pathwayVolschenk, Heinrich 12 1900 (has links)
Dissertation (PhD)--University of Stellenbosch, 2002. / ENGLISH ABSTRACT: L-Malic and tartaric acid are the most prominent organic acids in wine and playa crucial role in
winemaking processes and wine quality, including the organoleptic quality and the physical,
biochemical and microbial stability of wine. The production of premium wines depends on the
oenologist's skill to accurately adjust wine acidity to obtain the optimum balance with other wine
components to produce wine with optimum colour and flavour.
Strains of Saccharomyces, in general, rarely degrade L-malic acid completely in grape must during
alcoholic fermentation, with relatively minor modifications in total acidity during vinification. The
degree of L-malic acid degradation, however, varies from strain to strain. Some strains of
Saccharomyces are known to be able to degrade a higher percentage of L-malic acid, but the
underlying reason for this phenomenon is unknown. The underlying mechanisms of this phenomenon
have been partially revealed during preliminary transcriptional regulation research during this study.
In contrast, S. pombe cells can effectively degrade up to 29 gil L-malic acid via the malo-ethanolic
pathway that converts L-malic acid to pyruvate and CO2, and ultimately to ethanol under fermentative
conditions. A number of reasons for the weak degradation of L-malic acid in Saccharomyces
cerevisiae have been postulated. Firstly, S. cerevisiae lacks the machinery for the active transport of
L-malic acid found in S. pombe and relies on rate-limiting simple diffusion for the uptake of
extracellular L-malic acid. Secondly, the malic enzyme of S. cerevisiae has a significantly lower
substrate affinity for L-malic acid (Km = 50 mM) than that of S. pombe (Km = 3.2 mM), which
contributes to the weaker degradation of L-malic acid in S. cerevisiae. Lastly, the mitochondrial
location of the malic enzyme of S. cerevisiae, in contrast to the cytosolic S. pombe malic enzyme,
suggests that the S. cerevisiae malic enzyme is inherently subject to the regulatory effects of
fermentative metabolism.
The malate permease gene tmael) and the malic enzyme gene (mae2) of S. pombe was therefore
cloned and co-expressed in single or multi-copy under regulation of the constitutive S. cerevisiae
3-phosphoglycerate kinase (PGK1) promoter and terminator sequences in a laboratory strain of
S. cerevisiae. This introduced a strong malo-ethanolic phenotype in S. cerevisiae where L-malic acid
was rapidly and efficiently degraded in synthetic and Chardonnay grape must with the concurrent
production of higher levels of ethanol. Functional expression of the malo-ethanolic pathway genes of
S. pombe in a laboratory strain of S. cerevisiae paved the way for the genetic modification of
industrial wine yeast strains of Saccharomyces for commercial winemaking.
A prerequisite for becoming an inherited component of yeast is the stable integration of the
malo-ethanolic genes into the genome of industrial wine yeast strains. Genetic engineering of wine
yeasts strains of Saccharomyces is, however, complicated by the homothallic, multiple ploidy and prototrophic nature of industrial strains of Saccharomyces. Transformation and integration of
heterologous genes into industrial strains of Saccharomyces require the use of dominant selectable
markers, i.e. antibiotic or toxic compound resistance markers. Integration of these markers into the
yeast genome is, however, not acceptable for commercial application due to the absence of long-term
risk assessment and consumer resistance.
A unique strategy for the integration of the S. pombe mae} and mae2 expression cassettes without the
incorporation of any non-yeast derived DNA sequences was. The malo-ethanolic cassette, containing
the S. cerevisiae PGK} promoter and terminator regions together with the S. pombe mae] and mae2
open reading frames, was integrated into the VRA3 locus of an industrial strain of Saccharomyces
bayanus EC 1118 during co-transformation with a phleomycin-resistance plasmid, pUT332. After
initial screening for phleomycin resistance, S. bayanus EC1118 transformants were cured of the
phleomycin-resistance plasmid, resulting in the loss of non-yeast derived DNA sequences. After
correct integration of the mae] and mae2 expression cassettes was verified, small-scale vinification in
synthetic and Chardonnay grape must with stable transformants resulted in rapid and complete
degradation of L-malic acid during the early stages of alcoholic fermentation. Integration and
expression of the malo-ethanolic genes in S. bayanus ECll18 had no adverse effect on the
fermentation ability of the yeast, while sensory evaluation and chemical analysis of the Chardonnay
wines indicated an improvement in wine flavour compared to the control wines, without the
production of any off-flavours. / AFRIKAANSE OPSOMMING: L-Appelsuur en wynsteensuur is die mees prominente organiese sure in wyn en speel 'n kritiese rol in
die wynbereidingsproses en organoleptiese wynkwaliteit, insluitende die fisiese, biochemiese en
mikrobiese stabiliteit van wyn. Die produksie van hoë-kwaliteit wyne berus op die vermoë van 'n
wynmaker om die suurinhoud korrek aan te pas om sodoende 'n gebalanseerde produk met optimale
geur en kleur te produseer.
Saccharomyces rasse kan gewoonlik nie appelsuur volledig tydens alkoholiese gisting benut nie en
dra dus nie noemenswaardig tot 'n verlaging van die totale suurinhoud van wyn by nie. Die mate van
appelsuur afbraak deur Saccharomyces wissel egter van ras tot ras. Sekere Saccharomyces rasse kan
'n groter persentasie appelsuur afbreek, maar die onderliggende rede vir hierdie verskynsel is
onbekend. Die onderliggende meganismes vir hierdie verskynsel is gedurende hierdie studie uitgelig
na afloop van voorlopige transkripsionele regulerings studies op die malaatensiemgeen. In
teenstelling hiermee kan S. pombe tot 29 gIl appelsuur via die malo-alkoholiese padweg afbreek
waartydens appelsuur na pirodruiwesuur en CO2, en uiteindelik na alkoholonder fermentatiewe
toestande omgeskakel word. Verskeie redes vir die swak afbraak van appelsuur deur
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is voorgestel. Eerstens beskik S. cerevisiae nie oor 'n meganisme vir die
aktiewe transport van appelsuur, soos in die geval van S. pombe nie, en is aangewese op die stadige
opname van appelsuur deur eenvoudige diffusie. Tweedens het die S. cerevisiae malaatensiem 'n baie
laer substraataffiniteit vir appelsuur (Km = 50 mM) in vergelyking met die van S. pombe (Km =
3.2 mM), wat verder bydra tot die swak afbraak van appelsuur in S. cerevisiae. Laastens dra die
mitochondriale ligging van die S. cerevisiae malaatensiem in teenstelling met die sitoplasmiese
ligging van die S. pombe malaatensiem, verder by tot die swak afbraak van appelsuur, aangesien die
mitochondria onder fermentatiewe toestande negatief gereguleer word.
Die malaatpermease geen (maely en malaatensiem geen (mae2) van S. pombe is gevolglik gekloneer
en heteroloog in 'n laboratoriumras van S. cerevisiae onder die beheer van die konstitutiewe
3-fosfogliseraat kinase (PGKI) promoter- en termineerdervolgordes uitgedruk. 'n Sterk
malo-alkoholiese fenotipe was duidelik tydens fermentasies met die rekombinante gis in sintetiese en
Chardonnay druiwemos, met 'n gepaardgaande verhoging in alkoholvlakke. Funksionele uitdrukking
van die malo-alkoholiese gene van S. pombe in 'n S. cerevisiae laboratoriumras het die weg vir die
genetiese modifisering van industriële wynrasse van S. cerevisiae vir kommersiële wynfermentasie
gebaan.
Om 'n integrale deel van die gis te word, moet die malo-alkoholiese gene stabiel in die genoom van
industriële wynrasse geïntegreer word. Genetiese manipulering van industriële wynrasse word egter
bemoeilik deur die homotalliese, multi-ploïediese en prototrofiese aard van industriële Saccharomyces rasse. Transformasie en integrasie van heteroloë gene in industriële Saccharomyces
rasse vereis die gebruik van dominante merkers, bv. weerstandbiedendheid teen antibiotika of ander
gifstowwe. Integrasie van hierdie merkers in die gisgenoom is egter nie vir kommersiële toepassing
aanvaarbaar nie weens die afwesigheid van langtermyn risikobepalings en verbruikersweerstand.
Tydens hierdie studie is daar dus gepoog om industriële wynrasse met 'n unieke strategie geneties te
verbeter sodat slegs gis-DNA tydens die integrasie van die S. pombe mae1 en mae2
uitdrukkingskassette in die gisgenoom opgeneem word. Die Malo-alkoholiese integrasiekasset wat
slegs die S. pombe mae1, mae2 oopleesrame en die S. cerevisiae PGK1 promoter en
termineerdervolgordes bevat, is in die URA3 lokus van Saccharomyces bayanus ECll18 geïntegreer
tydens parallelle transformasie met 'n 'phleomycin' weerstandbiedendheidsplasmied. Na seleksie van
transformante op 'phleomycin' -bevattende media, is die S. bayanus EC 1118 transformante in nieselektiewe
kondisies opgegroei sodat verlies van die 'phleomycin' plasmied kon plaasvind. Integrasie
van die mae1 en mae2 uitdrukkingskassette is bevestig en kleinskaalse fermentasies in sintetiese en
druiwemos het 'n vinnige en doeltreffende afbraak van appelsuur in die vroeë fases van die
alkoholiese fermentasie getoon. Integrasie en uitdrukking van die malo-alkoholiese gene in
S. bayanus ECl118 het geen nadelige effek op die fermentasievermoë van die gis getoon nie, terwyl
sensoriese en chemiese ontleding van die Chardonnay wyne 'n verbetering in aroma relatief tot die
kontrole wyne getoon het, met die afwesigheid van enige afgeure.

Vývoj separačních metod pro stanovení perfluoralkylových karboxylových kyselin ve vzorcích životního prostředí / Development of separation methods for determination of perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids in envirnonmental samplesDufková, Veronika January 2012 (has links)
A complete, sensitive and selective procedure was developed for gas chromatographic determination of perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids (PFCAs, C5 - C12) in river water samples. A rapid and simple derivatization procedure was developed and optimized at first, using isobutyl chloroformate (IBCF) to convert the acids into the more volatile isobutyl esters. The second task was to find the most suitable stationary phase for separation of perfluoroalkyl carboxylic acids by GC. The retention characteristics of PFCA isobutyl esters were measured and compared on 9 different stationary phases. The physical-chemical parameters of analyte interactions with stationary phase were monitored on selected column Rtx-200MS, and these parameters were compared with a non-fluorinated homologue - octanoic acid. A sensitive GC-MS system was used with negative chemical ionization, which is suitable for the selected type of fluorinated analytes. The developed method exhibits very low limits of detection and determination of PFCA isobutyl esters: 0.05 - 9.7 ng mL-1 (LOD) and 0.16 - 32.2 ng mL-1 (LOQ). An optimum pre-concentration technique was found for real water samples, where SPE SupelTM-Select HLB cartridges were used. In these cartridges, PFCAs were captured as ion- pairs with enrichment factor of 400. The recoveries of...
