The commercial availability of dimethyl sulfoxide has stimulated numerous programs aimed at utilizing the novel properties of this compound. As a dipolar, aprotic solvent, it is especially useful as a medium for the generation of carbanions under relative­ ly mild conditions. This property has been utilized in extensive studies on the sterochemistry of carbanions, acidity of hydrocarbons and oxidation of hydrocarbons via a carbanion intermediate. The solvent properties of dimethyl sulfoxide have also been used to advantage in synthetic procedures involving displacement reactions on saturated carbon atom. Since the sulfoxide group is in an intermediate state of oxidation, it is easily oxidized or reduced. Numerous studies have demonstrated the ability of dimethyl sulfoxide to act as an oxidizing agent for halides, alcohols, and alcohol derivatives. i The present study was undertaken to find ways to in­ corporate the methylsulfinylmethylene group (CH^SOCHg-) into a variety of organic molecules such as nitriles, halides, epoxides, and esters. The initial products derived from these reactions RON •• > HC( =NH) CHgSOCH^ ( i) EX > RCHgSOCHc (ii) EE' C— CE' « E'" >EE' C( OH)C(CH-SOCH^) R"R"' (iii) 2 J ECOgE' >EC0CHg80CH (iv) showed promise of being useful synthetic intermediates. The B-keto sulfoxides, formed from aromatic esters, Équation 4, proved to b.e an interesting class of compounds. Efforts were then directed toward exploring the chemistry of these compounds. The bifunctional nature of B-keto sulfoxides was utilized in attempts to devise practical synthetic procedures for the formation of ketones, ketols, glyoxals, or-diketones, glyoxalic acids and esters, and glycols. I In the brief review which follows, some of the more important aspects of the chemistry of sulfoxide derivatives have been presented. The review is by no means complete since the reports of uses for, and studies on dimethyl sulfoxide, and sulfoxides in general, are legion. The term', "dimsylsodium" has been coined for sodium (methylsulfinyl)-methide, CH^SOCH^Na (1). Similarly, the term, "dimsylpotassium" can be applied to the potassium salt. These terms will be used in the discussion that follows. It is to be understood that "dimsylsodium" refers to the salt generated from dimethyl sulfoxide and sodium hydride, and "dimsylpotassium" refers to the salt generated from dimethyl sulfoxide and potassium _t-but oxide in _t-butyl alcohol. Exceptions to this will be pointed out. LITERATURE REVIEW The preparation of sulfoxides, their structure, and chemical behavior have been reviewed (2, 3> 4).

  • Synthesis and Kinetics of Novel Ionic Liquid Soluble Hydrogen Atom Transfer Reagents
    Synthesis and kinetics of novel ionic liquid soluble hydrogen atom transfer reagents Thomas William Garrard Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree Doctor of Philosophy June 2018 School of Chemistry The University of Melbourne Produced on archival quality paper ORCID: 0000-0002-2987-0937 Abstract The use of radical methodologies has been greatly developed in the last 50 years, and in an effort to continue this progress, the reactivity of radical reactions in greener alternative solvents is desired. The work herein describes the synthesis of novel hydrogen atom transfer reagents for use in radical chemistry, along with a comparison of rate constants and Arrhenius parameters. Two tertiary thiol-based hydrogen atom transfer reagents, 3-(6-mercapto-6-methylheptyl)-1,2- dimethyl-3H-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate and 2-methyl-7-(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)heptane-2-thiol, have been synthesised. These are modelled on traditional thiol reagents, with a six-carbon chain with an imidazole ring on one end and tertiary thiol on the other. 3-(6-mercapto-6-methylheptyl)- 1,2-dimethyl-3H-imidazolium tetrafluoroborate comprises of a charged imidazolium ring, while 2- methyl-7-(2-methylimidazol-1-yl)heptane-2-thiol has an uncharged imidazole ring in order to probe the impact of salt formation on radical kinetics. The key step in the synthesis was addition of thioacetic acid across an alkene to generate a tertiary thioester, before deprotection with either LiAlH4 or aqueous NH3. Arrhenius plots were generated to give information on rate constants for H-atom transfer to a primary alkyl radical, the 5-hexenyl radical, in ethylmethylimidazolium bis(trifluoromethane)sulfonimide.

  • Recent Developments on the Origin and Nature of Reductive Sulfurous Off-Odours in Wine
    fermentation Review Recent Developments on the Origin and Nature of Reductive Sulfurous Off-Odours in Wine Nikolaus Müller 1,* and Doris Rauhut 2 1 Silvanerweg 9, 55595 Wallhausen, Germany 2 Department of Microbiology and Biochemistry, Hochschule Geisenheim University, Von-Lade-Straße 1, 65366 Geisenheim, Germany; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +49-6706-913103 Received: 9 July 2018; Accepted: 3 August 2018; Published: 8 August 2018 Abstract: Reductive sulfurous off-odors are still one of the main reasons for rejecting wines by consumers. In 2008 at the International Wine Challenge in London, approximately 6% of the more than 10,000 wines presented were described as faulty. Twenty-eight percent were described as faulty because they presented “reduced characters” similar to those presented by “cork taint” and in nearly the same portion. Reductive off-odors are caused by low volatile sulfurous compounds. Their origin may be traced back to the metabolism of the microorganisms (yeasts and lactic acid bacteria) involved in the fermentation steps during wine making, often followed by chemical conversions. The main source of volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) are precursors from the sulfate assimilation pathway (SAP, sometimes named as the “sulfate reduction pathway” SRP), used by yeast to assimilate sulfur from the environment and incorporate it into the essential sulfur-containing amino acids methionine and cysteine. Reductive off-odors became of increasing interest within the last few years, and the method to remove them by treatment with copper (II) salts (sulfate or citrate) is more and more questioned: The effectiveness is doubted, and after prolonged bottle storage, they reappear quite often.

  • Thiosulfate Degradation During Gold Leaching In
    THIOSULFATE DEGRADATION DURING GOLD LEACHING IN AMMONIACAL THIOSULFATE SOLUTIONS : A FOCUS ON TRITHIONATE By NOELENE AHERN B.Sc, University of Natal, 1994 B.Sc. (Hons), University of Natal, 1995 M.A.Sc, University of Cape Town, 1997 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Faculty of Graduate Studies (Materials Engineering) The University of British Columbia October 2005 © Noelene Ahern, 2005 ABSTRACT Thiosulfate has shown considerable promise as an alternative to cyanide for gold leaching. However, one of the main limitations of the thiosulfate system is the high consumption of thiosulfate. Besides increasing the cost of the process, the degradation products of thiosulfate have been claimed to passivate gold surfaces and the polythionates often produced are loaded onto resins proposed for gold recovery. The thiosulfate degradation process is not completely understood. Of the degradation products, trithionate is a concern in the resin recovery of gold and is persistent in gold leach solutions. Very little is known about the expected behaviour of trithionate, both with respect to its formation and its interaction with other solution species. The focus of this work was therefore to further the understanding of the behaviour of trithionate in gold leach solutions. Experimental work was carried out to determine the kinetics of trithionate degradation in systems resembling gold leaching solutions, and a kinetic model was derived for trithionate degradation. The rate of degradation of trithionate in aqueous ammoniacal solutions was expressed by Equation 1. 2 + 2 -d[S306 -]/dt = (k3[NH4 ] + k2[NH3] + k,[OHl + k0)[S3O6 T [1] 1 1 1 1 1 where k0 = 0.012 h"\ = 0.74 IvV.h;, k2 = 0.0049 M" .h' , k3 = 0.01 M" .^ .

Gillis Submitted to the Department of Chemical Engineering on July 30, 2020, in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemical Engineering Abstract In this thesis, I explore the chemistry of reacting sulfur species computationally and experimentally. The computational work centers around creating the capability to automatically predict the thermochemical properties of arbitrary sulfur molecules and the kinetic parameters of reactions between these species. A demonstration of this enhanced capability is shown in the automatic creation of detailed chemical mech- anism describing the partial oxidation of dimethyl sulfide. The experimental work focuses on a hydrogen generating chemical cycle that uses a hydrogen sulfide feed- stock. Initially exploring the reactivity of hydrogen sulfide, water, and iodine mixtures to form hydroiodic acid, two competing pathways were discovered. The more inter- esting pathway involved the reaction of hydrogen sulfide with iodine and water to form hydroiodic acid and sulfur dioxide. A bench-top prototype was created demon- strating the creation of hydrogen gas from hydrogen sulfide through this pathway.

  • ABSTRACT FEI, XIUZHU. Decolorization of Dyed Polyester
    ABSTRACT FEI, XIUZHU. Decolorization of Dyed Polyester Fabrics using Sodium Formaldehyde Sulfoxylate. (Under the direction of Dr. David Hinks and Dr. Harold S. Freeman). Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) fiber is now the largest single fiber type within global textile production, taking over from cotton. In view of environmental stewardship, an effective approach to recycling colored PET fabrics has drawn wide attention. A key step in the recycling process is dye removal. Disperse dyes are used to dye PET fibers and designed to be durable inside the fiber. In addition, disperse dyes are hydrophobic and will not be substantially extracted with water as the only solvent. In this work, the organic solvent, acetone, was used in combination with water to remove disperse dyes from the PET, and sodium formaldehyde sulfoxylate (SFS) was employed to decolorize the dye. This agent was found effective for decolorizing Disperse Yellow 42, Yellow 86, Blue 56 and Blue 60 in acetone/water solutions and the process was extended to decolorization of dyed PET. An optimized combination of treatment time (30 min), water to acetone ratio (1:2), SFS concentration (10g/L), temperature (100 ˚C), and liquor ratio (1:50) was found to give sufficient color removal for a broad range of disperse dyes. Reuse of the water/acetone medium for five times was achieved for decolorization of Disperse Yellow 42 but could not be achieved for Disperse Blue 56. Fabric strength assessments were also investigated. It was found that SFS decolorization has no adverse influence on PET strength, as judged by viscosity measurements. © Copyright 2015 Xiuzhu Fei All Rights Reserved Decolorization of Dyed Polyester Fabrics using Sodium Formaldehyde Sulfoxylate by Xiuzhu Fei A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of North Carolina State University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science Textile Chemistry Raleigh, North Carolina 2015 APPROVED BY: _______________________________ _______________________________ Dr.

  • Chemistry of Deca- and Dodeca-Closo-Borate Bearing Three Exopolyhedral Sulfur Substituents
    CHEMISTRY OF DECA- AND DODECA-CLOSO-BORATE BEARING THREE EXOPOLYHEDRAL SULFUR SUBSTITUENTS DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Hoitung Terry Leung ***** The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Sheldon Shore, Advisor Professor Ross Dalbey _________________________________ Professor Claudia Turro Advisor Department of Chemistry ABSTRACT Chemistry of mercaptan-closo-decaborate was extended from mono-substituted isomers to a new tri-substituted species. The previously reported procedure of 2- synthesizing 1,10-(Me2S)2-2-MeS-B10H7 from [B10H10] was found irreproducible. The method was modified and the overall yield was improved. Even though the degree of substitution was found to be controlled by time and temperature, the increase of reaction time and temperature did not produce further (or tetrakis) substituted product. The tri- subsituted compound of closo-dodecaborate system, 1,7-(Me2S)2-9-MeS-B12H9, was synthesized from 1,7-B12H10(SMe2)2. Analogously halogenations of 1,10-B10H8(SMe2)2 and 1,7-B12H10(SMe2)2 produced compounds with a general formula of 2-X-1,10- (Me2S)2-B10H7 and 9-X-1,7-(Me2S)2-B12H9, respectively. The existence of cationic + + intermediates, [1,2,10-B10H7(Me2S)3] and [1,7,9-(Me2S)3-B12H9] , were examined and witnessed by 11B and 11B{1H} NMR. Dealkylation of these boron cages led to the corresponding tri-thioether as well as tri-thiol products. They were found reacted with methylene chloride. Due to the decrease of reactivity by gradual substitution of the boron cage, the reaction was not complete.

The following approach is useful in determining the polyhedralsymbol for four- coordinate structures. The key is to consider the locations of the central atom and the coordinating atoms in relation to each other. If all five atoms are in (or are close to beingin) the same plane, then the molecule should be treated as square planar. If the four coordinating atoms are in aplane, but the central atom is significantly displaced from the plane, then the squarepyramidal geometry is appropriate.Ifthe four coordinating atoms do not lie in (or close to) aplane, then apolyhedron can be defined by joiningall four coordinating atoms togetherwith lines. If the central atom lies inside this polyhedronthe molecule shouldberegarded as tetrahedral, otherwise, it should be regarded as having a see-saw structure.
