They act as phase transfer catalysts transferring solid ionic reagents directly into organic solvents such as benzene or acetonitrile without the presence of water. Crown ethers have also proven useful in the selective extraction of certain ions from mixtures. They tend to be selective towards cations with radii near the size of the crown cavity. Polymers of dibenzo-crowns bind to cations more strongly than the free crowns. They have been used as column packings for the separation of alkali metal cations. We believe that they might also be used successfully to generate neuseable phase transfer catalyst beds. In addition to the new crowns we have also added some exotic mono- and di- methyl ethers of glycols.

  • Electroanalytical Chemistry of Some Organometallic Compounds of Tin, Lead and Germanium
    ELECTROANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY OF SOME ORGANOMETALLIC COMPOUNDS OF TIN, LEAD AND GERMANIUM by Nani Bhushan Fouzder M.Sc. (Rajshahi) A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy of the University of London. Chemistry Department, Imperial College of Science and Technology, London S.W.7. September, 1975. 11 ABSTRACT. The present thesis concerns the investigation into the electrochemical behaviour of some industrially important organometallic compounds of tin, lead and germanium and development of suitable electrochemical methods for the analysis of these compounds at formula- tion and at trace level. The basic principles of the electrochemical techniques used inthis investigation have been given in the first part of the 'Introduction', while the various factors which control the electrode process have been discussed in the second part of the 'Introduction' in chapter 1. The electrochemical behaviour and analytical determination of some important organotin fungicides and pesticides such as tri-n-butyltin oxide, triphenyl- tin acetate, etc., some antihelminthic compounds such as dibutyltin dilaureate and dibutyltin dimaleate and some widely used PVC-stabilizers such as di-n-Octyltin dithioglycollic acid ester (Irgastab 17 MOK), Irgastab 17M and Irgastab 15 MOR have been described in the following three chapters. For each type of compound a detailed mechanism of the electrochemical process has been proposed and established. The electrochemical behaviour of organolead compounds and of the organogermanium compounds have been described in the next three chapters. In each case, the mechanism of reduction of these compounds has been established and methods 9fc their determina- tion at ordinary and at trace level have been developed. Finally, in the eighth chapter a brief intro- duction into the highspeed liquid chromatographic technique has been given and analysis of organotin compounds by this method using a wall-jet electrode detector has been described.

  • Toxicological Profile for Lead
    LEAD 355 CHAPTER 5. POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE 5.1 OVERVIEW Pb and Pb compounds have been identified in at least 1,287 and 46 sites, respectively, of the 1,867 hazardous waste sites that have been proposed for inclusion on the EPA National Priorities List (NPL) (ATSDR 2019). However, the number of sites evaluated for Pb is not known. The number of sites in each state is shown in Figures 5-1 and 5-2, respectively. Of these 1,287 sites for Pb, 1,273 are located within the United States, 2 are located in the Virgin Islands, 2 are located in Guam, and 10 are located in Puerto Rico (not shown). All the sites for Pb compounds are only in the United States. Figure 5-1. Number of NPL Sites with Lead Contamination LEAD 356 5. POTENTIAL FOR HUMAN EXPOSURE Figure 5-2. Number of NPL Sites with Lead Compound Contamination • Pb is an element found in concentrated and easily accessible Pb ore deposits that are widely distributed throughout the world. • The general population may be exposed to Pb in ambient air, foods, drinking water, soil, and dust. For adults, exposure to levels of Pb beyond background are usually associated with occupational exposures. • For children, exposure to high levels of Pb are associated with living in areas contaminated by Pb (e.g., soil or indoor dust in older homes with Pb paint). Exposure usually occurs by hand-to- mouth activities. • As an element, Pb does not degrade. However, particulate matter contaminated with Pb can move through air, water, and soil.

    LOW AND ZERO SAPS ANTIWEAR ADDITIVES FOR ENGINE OILS by Juliane F. L. Benedet A Thesis submitted to Imperial College London in fulfilment of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy and the Diploma of Imperial College. November 2012 Tribology Section Department of Mechanical Engineering Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine London PREFACE This thesis is a description of work carried out in the Tribology Section of the Department of Mechanical Engineering, Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine, London, under the supervision of Professor Hugh A. Spikes. Except where acknowledged, this material is original work and no part of it has been submitted for a degree at this or any other university. ABSTRACT Almost all modern engine lubricants use the additive zinc dialkyldithiophosphate (ZDDP) to provide antiwear and extreme pressure protection. However existing and proposed emissions regulations include constraints in the concentration of ZDDP or other sulphated ash-, phosphorus- and sulphur- (SAPS) containing additives in engine oils, as well as limits to the permissible phosphorus loss from the oil in running engines. The deleterious effects of SAPS on exhaust aftertreatment systems from ZDDP decomposition has lead to a great interest in identifying alternative low and zero SAPS antiwear additives that can partially of fully replace ZDDP in the next generation of engine oils to extend the life of exhaust after-treatment systems. The aim of the work described in this thesis is to explore under the same test conditions, the film-forming, friction and wear-reducing properties of a very wide range of low and zero SAPS antiwear additives as possible replacements for ZDDP in engine oils, and, where additive types are effective, to investigate their mechanism of action.
