Analytical Chemistry University of Central Florida, 2015 A dissertation submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Chemistry in the College of Sciences at the University of Central Florida Orlando, Florida Summer Term 2018 Major Professor: Andres D. Campiglia © 2018 Hugh V. Hayes ii ABSTRACT The purpose of this dissertation is to provide a new and improved analytical methodology for the analysis of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and polycyclic aromatic sulfur heterocycles (PASHs) in environmental samples. Hundreds of PAHs and PASHs are present in the environment and have great toxicological importance and the chemical determination of these components is a priority. The complete normal-phase liquid chromatography (NPLC) retention behavior has been explored for these compounds. Retention indices were determined for 124 PAHs, 62 methyl-PAHs (MePAHs), 67 PASHs, and 80 alkyl-PASHs on an aminopropyl (NH2) stationary phase which represents the most comprehensive study of polycyclic aromatic compounds in normal phase conditions to date. NPLC retention behavior for PAHs and PASHs directly correlated to the total number of aromatic carbons in the parent structures. The normal-phase retention behavior information was used to develop an NPLC fractionation procedure to aid in the sample cleanup for complex environmental matrices which can later be analyzed by gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS). Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1597a (complex mixture of PAHs in coal tar), SRM 1991 (coal tar/petroleum extract), and SRM 1975 (diesel particulate extract) were analyzed before and after NPLC fractionation by using GC/MS. In SRM 1597a, the NPLC-GC/MS method allowed for the identification of 72 PAHs, 56 Me-PAHs, 35 PASHs, and 59 alkyl-PASHs. The NPLC-GC/MS procedure also provided the tentative identification of 74 PAHs and 117 MePAHs based on the molecular ion peak only. Furthermore, this method allowed for the following identification breakdown: SRM 1991–31 PASHs and 58 alkyl-PASHs; and SRM 1975–13 PASHs and 25 alkyl- PASHs. iii Additional work related to the NPLC fractionation of SRM 1597 included the collection of room-temperature fluorescence spectra for the 21 PAHs with molecular mass (MM) 302 Da known to be in SRM 1597a during reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RPLC) separation. Adding spectral features to a chromatographic run provided the tentative identification of 20 PAHs based on retention times and the presence of 18 were confirmed on the basis of spectral profiles. The advancements in liquid chromatography presented in this dissertation via NPLC fractionation along with RPLC stop-flow fluorescence spectra collection shows potential for becoming routine methodologies for PAC determination in complex environmental samples. iv To my niece, Presley Rose v ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like to give special thanks to my advisor Dr. Andres D. Campiglia for everything he has provided for me throughout my time pursuing a Ph.D. in Chemistry at University of Central Florida.

Because it is one of the smallest two-dimensional N-containing polyheterocyclic aromatic systems, it has been used as the basic scaffold for larger 2D N-substituted polyheterocyclic aromatics. 10 Furthermore, it is the building block of choice in a plethora of molecular, macromolecular and supramolecular systems for a variety of applications. This review is aimed to critically review the research performed during the almost three decades of research based on HAT from the synthetic, theoretical and applications point of view.

Kaiser <[email protected]> Musahid Ahmed <[email protected]> Alexander M. Mebel <[email protected]> 1 Abstract: For the last decades, the Hydrogen-Abstraction/aCetylene-Addition (HACA) mechanism has been fundamental in aiding our understanding of the source of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in combustion processes and in circumstellar envelopes of carbon rich stars. However, the reaction mechanisms driving high temperature molecular mass growth beyond triphenylene (C18H12) along with the link between PAHs and graphene-type nanostructures as identified in carbonaceous meteorites such as in Murchison and Allende has remained elusive. By • exploring the reaction of the 1-naphthyl radical ([C10H7] ) with methylacetylene (CH3CCH) and allene (H2CCCH2) under conditions prevalent in carbon-rich circumstellar environments and combustion systems, we provide compelling evidence on a facile formation of 1H-phenalene (C13H10) – the central molecular building block of graphene-type nanostructures. Beyond PAHs, molecular mass growth processes from 1H-phenalene via ring-annulation through C3 molecular building blocks may ultimately lead to two-dimensional structures such as graphene nano flakes and after condensation of multiple layers to graphitized carbon.

In nomenclature, fusion is the operation that creates a common bond between two rings, each ring contributing one bond and the two atoms directly attached to the bond. This type of fusion is called ortho- or ortho- and peri-fusion if two adjacent bonds are involved. The term fusion is also used todesc ribe the operation creating a common atom between two ring systems, each contributing one atom. This type of fusion is called spirofusion (see P-24.1). Traditionally, ortho- and ortho- and peri-fusion were simply called fusion and the resulting polycyclic systems were referred to as fused ring systems or fused ring compounds. The term 'spirofusion' is new in nomenclature, and to avoid ambiguity 'fusion' should not be used without the prefix 'spiro' when 'spirofusion' is intended."
