Nanocrystalline nickel prepared by glycol reduction method and characterized by XRD and magnetic measurements has been used as a catalyst for hydrogenation of styrene oxide to 2-phenylethanol. Effect of process variables such as particle size of the catalyst, temperature, and pressure have been optimized to achieve a maximum conversion of 98% of styrene oxide with 99% selectivity towards 2-phenylethanol. The structure of the transition state has been computed employing density functional theory −1 and using Gaussian 09 suite. The enthalpy of reaction (Δ) and activation energy ()arecalculatedtobe85.3kcal⋅mol and −1 123.03 kcal⋅mol , respectively. A tentative mechanism for the reaction is proposed according to which atomized hydrogen and styrene oxide react together over the catalyst surface to produce 2-phenylethanol.

  • Inhibition of Growth, Synthesis, and Permeability in Neurospora Crassa by Phenethyl Alcohol
    JOURNAL OF BACTERIOLOGY, JUly, 1965 Vol. 90, No. I Copyright © 1965 American Society for Microbiology Printed in U.S.A. Inhibition of Growth, Synthesis, and Permeability in Neurospora crassa by Phenethyl Alcohol GABRIEL LESTER Department of Biology, Reed College, Portland, Oregon Received for publication 22 January 1965 ABSTRACT LESTER, GABRIEL (Reed College, Portland, Ore.). Inhibition of growth, synthesis, and permeability in Neurospora crassa by phenethyl alcohol. J. Bacteriol. 90: 29-37. 1965.- Inhibition of the growth of Neurospora crassa in still culture was detected at 0.05% and was complete at a level of 0.2% phenethyl alcohol (PEA). Benzyl alcohol was less in- hibitory, and 3-phenyl-1-propanol and phenol were more inhibitory, than PEA; benzyl- amine and phenethylamine were less inhibitory than the analogous hydroxylated com- pounds. Inhibition by PEA was not reversed by synthetic mixtures of purines and pyrimidines or vitamins, or by casein digests, yeast extract, or nutrient broth. The germination of conidia was inhibited by PEA, but after an exposure of 8.5 hr no loss of viability was observed. The addition of PEA to growing shake cultures caused a simul- taneous inhibition of growth and of the syntheses of ribonucleic and deoxyribonucleic acids and protein; the relationships of these compounds to mycelial dry weight and to one another were constant in growing mycelia, and PEA did not significantly affect these relationships. PEA partially inhibited the uptake of glucose, but severely re- stricted the accumulation of L-leucine, L-tryptophan, or a-aminoisobutyric acid in germinated conidia. The efflux of a-aminoisobutyric acid from germinated conidia was somewhat enhanced by PEA, but this effect was not so pronounced as the (complete) inhibition of a-aminoisobutyric acid accumulation by PEA.

  • Synthesis of Higher Alcohols During Alcoholic Fermentation of Rye Mashes
    SCIENTIFIC BULLETIN OF THE TECHNICAL UNIVERSITY OF LODZ No. 1081 Food Chemistry and Biotechnology, Vol. 74 2010 MARTA PIETRUSZKA KATARZYNA PIELECH-PRZYBYLSKA JÓZEF STANISŁAW SZOPA Institute of Fermentation Technology and Microbiology Technical University of Lodz SYNTHESIS OF HIGHER ALCOHOLS DURING ALCOHOLIC FERMENTATION OF RYE MASHES Review: Edyta Kordialik-Bogacka Ph.D. Formation of by-products during alcoholic fermentation is a complex process. Particular attention should be paid to generation of higher alcohols because of its complex mechanism and dynamics. In XIX century the higher alcohols were thought about as “bacterial metabolites of spoilage” that contaminate alcoholic beverages. At the beginning of XX century Ehrlich proved that these compounds were produced by yeast from amino acids and they naturally occurred in all alcoholic beverages derived from spirits of agricultural origin. The quantity and profile of fusel alcohols in the wash depend on many factors such as raw materials used to prepare the sweet mash, yeast strain and the inoculum dose, supplements added to the mash. Investigations of many researchers prove that higher alcohols are formed through catabolic and anabolic pathways. They are either products of amino acid catabolism – as was found by Ehrlich or by-products of amino acid synthesis from pyruvate through the anabolic pathway. The occurrence of fusel alcohols in raw spirits from agricultural distilleries is a result of the presence of amino acids, sugars and products of their metabolism mainly aldehydes, in fermented mashes. Introduction One of Polish Standards regulates allowable concentrations of alcoholic fermentation by-products like methanol, aldehydes, esters and organic acids in raw spirits from agricultural distilleries but it does not refer to higher alcohols [1].

    Equilibrium Structures and Vibrational Assignments for Isoamyl Alcohol and tert-Amyl Alcohol: A Density Functional Study Wolfgang Forner¨ and Hassan M. Badawi Department of Chemistry, King Fahd University of Petroleum and Minerals, Dhahran 31261, Saudi Arabia Reprint requests to Wolfgang Forner.¨ E-mail: [email protected] Z. Naturforsch. 2013, 68b, 841 – 851 / DOI: 10.5560/ZNB.2013-3003 Received February 9, 2013 We have calculated the vibrational spectra of isoamyl alcohol and of tert-amyl alcohol using Den- sity Functional Theory (DFT) with the Becke-3 Lee Yang Parr (B3LYP) functional and a 6-311+G** atomic basis set. The energies of the conformers were also calculated with ab initio Perturbation Theory of second (MP2) and fourth order restricted to single, double and quadruple excitations (MP4 SDQ) with the same basis set. We found rather complicated equilibria of four conformations in each case, counting only those with appreciable abundancies. PED data were compared with GAUSSVIEW animations. The calculated wavenumbers agree rather well with the experimental ones when the gauche-trans conformer is assumed as the most important one for isoamyl alcohol, and the gauche- gauche one for tert-amyl alcohol. However, some of the experimental bands had to be assigned also to other conformers, indicating their presence in the equilibrium mixture. Due to sterical reasons both the CO and the OH bonds appear to be weaker in the tertiary alcohol, considering the wavenumbers of the CO and OH bond stretching vibrations. The bond lengths point into the same direction, however, the OH bond in the tertiary alcohol is only slightly longer than that in the primary alcohol.

Email: [email protected]; [email protected] Received: 19 March 2017, Revised and Accepted: 26 April 2017 ABSTRACT Objective: Preservatives are used in the cosmetic products to protect the potential growth of microbes, therefore, to prolong the shelf life of products, and to protect the consumer from infections. However, several preservatives can cause various health problems, and the safety profiles of those preservatives are still unclear. Many natural substances are used in the cosmetic products to substitute the traditional preservatives. The present study deals with the evaluation of conservative nature of phenethyl alcohol (PEA) in three cosmetic formulations (emulsion, cleansing, and conditioner). Methods: Three different concentrations of PEA (0.3%, 1%, and 2.5%) were used in cosmetic formulations. The physical appearance of the formulas was assessed manually, and the antimicrobial nature of PEA and PEA-containing cosmetic formulations was evaluated by agar well plate assay. Results: The use of PEA has not affected the physical appearance and quality of the formulations, except the high concentration of PEA in the cleansing solution, which reduced the foam formation. The minimal required concentration of PEA in emulsions and cleansings was 1.0% and 2.5% in the conditioners.
