Paquette, Advisor Professor Christopher M. Hadad _________________________________ Professor Jon Parquette Advisor Graduate Program in Chemistry ABSTRACT Abstract Bipolar disorder, also known as manic-depressive illness, is a brain disorder that can be treated, and people with this illness can be treated successfully with lithium salts. Lithium ionophores can be used to construct a Li+ ion selective electrode, which can in turn be used for effective monitoring of lithium levels in blood. Lithium ionophores synthesized previously in the group employing tetrahydrofuran units have been found to be good lithium ion specific ionophores. However, there have been problems with the solubility of these complexes. Consequently, two new molecules were designed by introducing oxygen atoms at strategic positions to enhance the solubility of the complexes formed with lithium. Methods to synthesize these compounds have been explored and described. The area of biphasic complexation has also been explored by synthesizing compounds with hydroxyethyl and alkoxyethyl side chains as ligating sites for metal ions. Desired compounds were synthesized starting from inositol in short and efficient routes. Complexation studies were performed in the solution phase and gas phase using picrate extraction studies and mass spec, respectively. En route to the synthesis of spiroether lithium ionophores some interesting properties were discovered. Cyclohexanones with spiroether units in the α and β position were found to equilibrate. Corresponding cyclopentanones were also found to exhibit this ii behavior. Influence of ring size of the equilibrium was investigated by synthesizing cyclopentanones containing a combination of five and six membered spiroether functionality. Oxonium ion-initiated pinacolic ring expansion reaction has been previously reported by our group. This discovery, which constitutes an extension of the long established Wagner-Meerwin and pinacol rearrangements, takes advantage of the fact that ketone adducts of metalated vinyl ethers are amenable to conversion to oxonium ions under acid-catalyzed conditions. This results in a diastereoselective ring expansion and spiroketone formation. Our next advance into spirocyclic chemistry involves application of pinacolic ring expansion methodology in the synthesis of 1,6-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane frameworks. Subsequent transformations result in the conversion of spiroketones formed to spiroketal frameworks. AL-2 and lissoketal are two naturally occurring spiroketals. Efforts were made to apply the pinacol ring expansion methodology in the synthesis of AL-2 and lissoketal. In order to arrive at 6.12, homologation was attempted to no avail via displacement of iodide 6.11 and ring opening of epoxides 6.6 and 6.7 utilizing various methods. Attention was then focused on initiating the synthesis with the desired chain length in place. Synthesis of lactone 6.8 was investigated and resolved. With an efficient synthesis of 6.19 in hand, attention was focused on alkylation at C3 position. However, alkylation was thwarted. The final approach has given rise to a strategy that involves construction of the unsaturated pyran ring from known spiroketal 6.26 and has allowed for the synthesis of Olefin 6.31. With Olefin 6.31 in hand, synthesis of lissoketal might be realized through more transformations. iii Dedication Dedicated to my parents iv ACKNOWLEDGMENTS Acknowledgments I wish to express my sincere gratitude and respect to my advisor, Dr. Leo A.

Received: 5 November 2020; Accepted: 26 November 2020; Published: 28 November 2020 Abstract: The changes in the cellulose structure of eight Eucalyptus species (E. botryoides, E. globulus, E. grandis, E. maculata, E. propinqua, E. rudis, E. saligna and E. viminalis) in a mild torrefaction (from 160 ◦C to 230 ◦C, 3 h) were studied in situ and after cellulose isolation from the wood by solid-state carbon nuclear magnetic resonance (13C NMR), wide angle X-ray scattering (WAXS), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and by analytic pyrolysis coupled with gas chromatography and mass spectrometry (Py-GC/MS). Changes in molecular weight were assessed by viscosimetry. A small decrease in cellulose crystallinity (ca. 2%–3%) was attributed to its amorphization on crystallite surfaces as a result of acid hydrolysis and free radical reactions resulting in the homolytic splitting of glycosidic bonds. The degree of the cellulose polymerization (DPv) decreased more than twice during the heat treatment of wood. It has been proposed that changes in the supramolecular structure of cellulose and in molecular weight during a heat treatment can be affected by the amount of lignin present in the wood.

However, as described in Section 18.9, aldehydes and ke- tones react with alcohols to form hemiacetals. When this reaction is intermolecular— that is, when the aldehyde group and the alcohol group are in different molecules—the equilibrium is unfavorable and the amount of hemiacetal that is present is very small. However, when the aldehyde group and the alcohol group are contained in the same molecule, as is the case in the second equation that follows, the intramolecular reaction is much more favorable (because of entropy effects; see Sections 8.13 and 18.9) and the hemiacetal is the predominant species present at equilibrium.

Molecular Analysis of Primary Vapor and Char Products during Stepwise Pyrolysis of Poplar Biomass Abstract Pyrolysis of biomass produces both pyrolysis oil and solid char. In this study, poplar has been pyrolyzed in a stepwise fashion over a series of temperatures from 200 to 500 °C, and both the primary products contributing to pyrolysis oil and the changes in the pyrolyzing poplar surface leading toward char have been characterized at each step. The primary products were identified by direct analysis in real time (DART) mass spectrometry, and the changes in the poplar surface were monitored using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) photoacoustic spectroscopy, with a sampling depth of a few micrometers.

  • Initial Pyrolysis Mechanism and Product Formation of Cellulose: an Experimental and Density Functional Theory(DFT) Study
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Initial pyrolysis mechanism and product formation of cellulose: An Experimental and Density functional theory(DFT) study Qing Wang*, Hao Song, Shuo Pan, Nanhang Dong, Xinmin Wang & Shipeng Sun In this paper, analytical pyrolyzer coupled with a gas chromatography–mass spectrometry set-up (Py- GC/MS) and density functional theory(DFT) theory was used to reveal the initial pyrolysis mechanism and product formation mechanism of cellulose pyrolysis. We demonstrated an experimentally benchmarked molecular simulation approach that delineates pyrolysis process of cellulose. Experimental results indicated that the cellulose pyrolysis products mostly incorporate levoglucosan (LG), glycolaldehyde (HAA), 5-hydroxyfurfural (5-HMF), and the like. The constituents of fast pyrolysis products of cellulose and cellobiose demonstrated the identical trend, although the contents of certain products are diferent. Laying the foundation of experimental analysis, the reaction pathways of four categories of cellulose pyrolysis were outlined using DFT theory; the pathways are those of generating LG, HAA, and 5-HMF and the dehydration reaction in the process of cellulose pyrolysis. Also, by comparing the energy barriers of various reactions, the optimal pathway of diferent reactions were summarized. The deduced cellulose pyrolysis reaction pathway opened up new ideas for studying the pyrolysis behavior of cellulose. Biomass is a clean renewable fuel source, and energy from biomass will defnitely play a signifcant role in new energy systems in the future1. Pyrolysis is an important method of thermochemical conversion, which converts biomass into bio-oil and has the advantages of easy storage, transportation and high energy density. Terefore, biomass pyrolysis technology is considered to be a promising approach to the use of biomass energy.

  • 20: Carbohydrates
    1-4,9/99 Neuman Chapter 20 20: Carbohydrates Monosaccharides Chemical Reactions of Monosaccharides Polysaccharides and Oligosaccharides Preview Carbohydrates are molecules of enormous biological importance that have empirical formulas such as Cn(H2O)n or Cn(H2O)n-1. These formulas suggest they are "hydrates of carbon" and that is why early chemists gave them the general name carbohydrates. We commonly call carbohydrates sugars and they are also known as saccharides. The simplest carbohydrates are monosaccharides. Monosaccharides chemically bond to each other in large carbohydrate molecules called polysaccharides. -MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS-MS- Polysaccharides are Composed of Chemically Bonded Monosaccharides (MS) Cellulose is a mixture of polysaccharides in the cell walls of plants that serves as their structural support. Upon hydrolysis, cellulose breaks down into individual monosaccharide units of D-glucose. cellulose + water ® D-glucose (polysaccharide) (monosaccharide) There are other polysaccharides besides cellulose, and many monosaccharides besides D- glucose that differ from it only in the stereochemical configuration at one or more chiral carbons. We will begin with an examination of structures of monosaccharides, analyze their stereochemical diversity, and then study their chemical reactions. After this we will discuss structures and biological functions of polysaccharides. 1 1-4,9/99 Neuman Chapter 20 20.1 Monosaccharides Simple monosaccharides (Cn(H2O)n) are classified according to the number of their C atoms (n) (Table 20.1). With 4 or more C's, they are usually cyclic molecules with 5-membered (furanose) or 6-membered (pyranose) rings. [graphic 20.1] Table 20.1. General Names of Monosaccharides Number of C's (n) General Name 3 triose 4 tetrose 5 pentose 6 hexose 7 heptose Furanoses and Pyranoses (20.1A) Monosaccharides with 5-membered rings are called furanoses and those with 6 membered rings are pyranoses because their heterocyclic ring skeletons contain an O atom analogous to the rings of the simple cyclic ethers furan and pyran.
