It contains many common chemicals found in the Aldrich Handbook of Fine Chemicals. To create the Aldrich Raman Condensed Phase Library, 14,033 compounds found in the Aldrich Collection of FT-IR Spectra Edition II Library were excited with an Nd:YVO4 laser (1064 nm) using laser powers between 400 - 600 mW, measured at the sample. A Thermo FT-Raman spectrometer (with a Ge detector) was used to collect the Raman spectra. The spectra were saved in Raman Shift format.

  • Chemical Resistance of Plastics
    (c) Bürkle GmbH 2010 Important Important information The tables “Chemical resistance of plastics”, “Plastics and their properties” and “Viscosity of liquids" as well as the information about chemical resistance given in the particular product descriptions have been drawn up based on information provided by various raw material manufacturers. These values are based solely on laboratory tests with raw materials. Plastic components produced from these raw materials are frequently subject to influences that cannot be recognized in laboratory tests (temperature, pressure, material stress, effects of chemicals, construction features, etc.). For this reason the values given are only to be regarded as being guidelines. In critical cases it is essential that a test is carried out first.

  • Development of Palladium-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Allylation of Electron-Deficient Sulfones: Method Development and Mechanistic Studies
    Development of Palladium-Catalyzed Decarboxylative Allylation of Electron-Deficient Sulfones: Method Development and Mechanistic Studies by Monica Anne Gill A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2015, Monica Anne Gill Abstract Palladium-catalyzed decarboxylative allylation is a powerful method of carbon-carbon bond construction. This methodology relies on an electron- withdrawing group to promote the reaction. The use of sulfones in decarboxylative allylation has been explored using the trifluoromethylsulfonyl (triflyl) group, as well as the bis(3,5-trifluoromethyl)phenylsulfonyl (BTMP) group. These substrates are highly reactive at room temperature (triflyl) and 50 oC (BTMP sulfones). A detailed mechanistic study using deuterium-labelled substrates was performed to understand the origin of the protonation side-product. It was proposed that a β- hydride elimination from the η1 allyl on palladium could generate a palladium hydride intermediate along with an allene. Although small amounts of deuterium incorporation were observed in the protonated products, the proposed mechanism could not be the major pathway. Using isotopically labelled ligand, however, all protonation was supressed. This suggests that the origin of the proton is actually from the ligand and that kinetic isotope effects may be responsible for inhibiting the protonation pathway with labelled ligand. ii Acknowledgments I would like to thank Dr. Jeff Manthorpe for giving me the chance to pursue my PhD in his lab. I always appreciated Jeff’s enthusiasm for organic chemistry as well as his vast knowledge of the subject.

    ABSTRACT ZOU, YAN. Applications of [2+2+2] Cyclotrimerization Reactions and Light-Cleavable Groups in the Generation of Biologically Active Molecules. (Under the direction of Dr. Alexander Deiters). [2+2+2] Cyclotrimerization reactions are a versatile tool for constructing the poly- substituted carbo- and hetero- cyclic ring systems. A number of transition metal catalysts, such as Co, Ru, Rh, Ni and Pd complexes, have been applied. However, there are still regio- and chemo- selectivity issues present in [2+2+2] cyclotrimerization reactions, and only few applications of cyclotrimerization reactions in the synthesis of natural products have been reported. We aimed to develop cyclotrimerization reactions for the assembly of benzene and pyridine core structures found in natural products and for applications in the synthesis of fluorophores. Microwave irradiation, a more recent method used to assist organic reactions, was employed in various cyclotrimerization reactions. In order to obtain greater control over the chemoselectivity of these reactions, we developed a solid-supported method of cyclotrimerization reactions through the immobilization of an alkyne or diyne onto a polymer backbone. This methodology was applied to the assembly of poly-substituted pyridines. Furthermore, the microwave mediated cyclotrimerization methodology was utilized to synthesize various anthracene and azaanthracene fluorophores. Additionally, a cyclotrimerization reaction was used in key steps of the total synthesis of the natural products cryptoacetalide and the pyridine core of cyclothiazomycin. Currently, the cyclotrimerization reaction is being utilized in the ongoing synthesis of petrosasponglide L. Photolabile protecting groups (caging groups) have attracted considerable attention in the field of chemical biology. These caging groups are installed on biomolecules of interest to control their function with light.

He supplemented my experience with “Semi-Micro Qualitative Analysis” – allowing me to perform simple chemistry experiments after school. As an undergraduate at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, I had the opportunity to carry out synthetic organic chemistry research in the laboratory of Professor Robert M. Coates. I am indebted to him, as well as Dr. Chad Davis (then a graduate student and my mentor), for their influence in setting me on the path of scientific research. My first employment was at Pharmacia in Kalamazoo, Michigan.

  • The War Gases
    THE WAR GASES CHEMISTRY AND ANALYSIS BY DR. MARIO SARTORI Chemist of the Italian Chemical Warfare Service Preface by PROFESSOR G. BARGELLINI of Rome University Translated from the Second Enlarged Italian Edition by L. W. MARRISON, B.Sc., A.I.C. With 20 Figures and 15 Tables NEW YORK D. VAN NOSTRAND CO., INC. 250 FOURTH AVENUE 1939 PREFACE TO THE FIRST ITALIAN EDITION THE world conflict of 1914-18 opened a new field of study in the Chemistry of War : that of the war gases. Thus the Chemistry of War, which had for its cradle the chemical laboratory in Turin where Ascanio Sobrero discovered nitroglycerine and which for 60 years was confined to the study of explosives, underwent a new development and a new orientation when substances which had an offensive action on the human and animal organism were first used on the field of battle. Then commenced the study of war gases which has become one of the most complex and important departments of chemistry. Our present knowledge of most of these asphyxiating gases is very superficial and even inexact, which is the reason that while some merit the importance given to them, others tend to be overvalued. Books are therefore necessary to give information as to what has been published of the constitution, the methods of preparation and the properties of these substances. While many German, American and Russian treatises elucidate this subject, which is of such great and present interest, in a wide and complete manner, few publications exist on the subject in the Italian language.
