  • Nomination Background: Methylal (CASRN: 109-87-5)
    SUMMARY OF DATA FOR CHEMICAL SELECTION METHYLAL CAS NO. 109-87-5 BASIS OF NOMINATION TO THE CSWG The nomination of methylal to the CSWG is based on high production volume and exposure potential. Dr. Elizabeth Weisburger, a member of the American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) TLV Committee as well as the Chemical Selection Working Group (CSWG), provided a list of 281 chemical substances with ACGIH recommended TLVs for which there were no long term studies cited in the supporting data and no designations with respect to carcinogenicity. She presented the list to the Chemical Selection Planning Group (CSPG) for evaluation as chemicals which may warrant chronic testing: it was affirmed at the CSPG meeting held on August 9, 1994, that the 281 "TLV Chemicals" be reviewed as a Class Study. As a result of the class study review, methylal is presented as a candidate for testing by the National Toxicology Program because of: • potential for occupational exposures based on high production volume (1.2-64 million lbs) and estimate of worker exposure • evidence of occupational exposures based on TLV and other literature documentation • potential for general population exposures based on use as a solvent in consumer products and occurrence in environmental media • suspicion of carcinogenicity based on potential for metabolic release of formaldehyde and positive mutagenicity data • lack of chronic toxicity data. SELECTION STATUS ACTION BY CSWG : 9/25/96 Studies requested : - Carcinogenicity Priority : Moderate to High Rationale/Remarks : - Potential for human exposure - Inhalation route recommended for testing - Consider transgenic mouse model (p53 or TGAC) INPUT FROM GOVERNMENT AGENCIES/INDUSTRY Dr.

Box 1142, Seoul 04107, Korea (Received 2 August 2016 • accepted 20 September 2016) Abstract−The isothermal vapor-liquid equilibrium data for the binary systems of cyclopentene (1)+cyclopentyl methyl ether (2) were measured at 313.15, 323.15, 333.15, 343.15 and 353.15 K using a dynamic-type equilibrium apparatus and online gas chromatography analysis. For all the measured VLE data consistency tests were performed for the verifi- cation of data using Barker’s method and the ASPEN PLUS Area Test method. All the resulting average absolute val- δ γ γ ues of residuals [ ln ( 1/ 2)] for Barker’s method and D values for the ASPEN PLUS area test method were com- paratively small. So, the VLE data reported in this study are considered to be acceptable. This binary system shows neg- ative deviation from Raoult’s law and does not exhibit azeotropic behavior at whole temperature ranges studied here. The measured data were correlated with the P-R EoS using the Wong-Sandler mixing rule. The overall average relative deviation of pressure (ARD-P (%)) between experimental and calculated values was 0.078% and that of vapor phase compositions (ARD-y (%)) was 0.452%.

  • Guidance Document Peroxide-Forming Chemicals
    Guidance Document Peroxide-Forming Chemicals Some chemicals can form peroxides under normal storage conditions. Some of the peroxide chemicals are unstable, especially when dried or concentrated, and can explode violently when subjected to heat, light or mechanical shock. In addition, some of the inadvertently formed peroxides can initiate other unexpected violent reactions (e.g. polymerizations) with other chemicals. When possible and practical for your work, purchase chemicals that have inhibitors added by the manufacturer. Label peroxide-forming chemicals with date received and date opened. Store peroxide-formers in airtight opaque containers with screw caps. Consider oxygen exclusion methods such as purging with inert gas or sealing containers with parafilm. Inspect containers for signs of peroxide formation. Do not open a container which has crystals or a visible cloudiness. Call EHS to come remove it. The friction caused by opening a lid can cause an explosion. Liquids can be tested for presence of peroxide. This is especially important prior to distilation. Most explosions of peroxide forming chemicals occur when a material is distilled to dryness. Peroxide test kits are available from chemical vendors. Contact EHS for additional guidance. Classification Table for Peroxide-Forming Chemicals Class I:: Unsaturated materials, especially those of low molecular weight, may polymerize violently and hazardously due to peroxide initiation. These chemicals can spontaneously decompose, becoming explosive after exposure to air with concentration. Discard unopened containers within 3 months. Opened containers should be tested for peroxides every 2 months. Acrylic acid Tetrafluoroethylene Acrylonitrile Vinyl acetate 1,3-Butadiene Vinyl acetylene Chlorobutadiene (chloroprene) Vinyl chloride Chlorotrifluoroethylene Vinyl pyridine Methyl methacrylate Vinylidiene chloride Styrene Class II: The following chemicals are a peroxide hazard upon concentration (distillation/evaporation).

  • NMR Chemical Shifts of Common Laboratory Solvents As Trace Impurities
    7512 J. Org. Chem. 1997, 62, 7512-7515 NMR Chemical Shifts of Common Laboratory Solvents as Trace Impurities Hugo E. Gottlieb,* Vadim Kotlyar, and Abraham Nudelman* Department of Chemistry, Bar-Ilan University, Ramat-Gan 52900, Israel Received June 27, 1997 In the course of the routine use of NMR as an aid for organic chemistry, a day-to-day problem is the identifica- tion of signals deriving from common contaminants (water, solvents, stabilizers, oils) in less-than-analyti- cally-pure samples. This data may be available in the literature, but the time involved in searching for it may be considerable. Another issue is the concentration dependence of chemical shifts (especially 1H); results obtained two or three decades ago usually refer to much Figure 1.

This is also true Experimental Section for D2O; the chemical shift of the residual HDO is very NMR spectra were taken in a Bruker DPX-300 instrument temperature-dependent (vide infra) but, maybe counter- (300.1 and 75.5 MHz for 1H and 13C, respectively).

    RSC Advances REVIEW View Article Online View Journal | View Issue Glymes as versatile solvents for chemical reactions and processes: from the laboratory to industry Cite this: RSC Adv.,2014,4,11251 Shaokun Tanga and Hua Zhao*b Glymes, also known as glycol diethers, are saturated non-cyclic polyethers containing no other functional groups. Most glymes are usually less volatile and less toxic than common laboratory organic solvents; in this context, they are more environmentally benign solvents. However, it is also important to point out that some glymes could cause long-term reproductive and developmental damage despite their low acute toxicities. Glymes have both hydrophilic and hydrophobic characteristics that common organic solvents lack. In addition, they are usually thermally and chemically stable, and can even form complexes with ions. Therefore, glymes are found in a broad range of laboratory applications including organic synthesis, electrochemistry, biocatalysis, materials, Chemical Vapor Deposition (CVD), etc. In addition, glymes are used in numerous industrial applications, such as cleaning products, inks, adhesives and coatings, Received 6th October 2013 batteries and electronics, absorption refrigeration and heat pumps, as well as pharmaceutical Accepted 9th December 2013 formulations, etc. However, there is a lack of a comprehensive and critical review on this attractive DOI: 10.1039/c3ra47191h subject.

  • Perylene Diimide: a Versatile Building Block for Complex Molecular Architectures and a Stable Charge Storage Material
    Perylene Diimide: A Versatile Building Block for Complex Molecular Architectures and a Stable Charge Storage Material Margarita Milton Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences COLUMBIA UNIVERSITY 2018 © 2018 Margarita Milton All rights reserved ABSTRACT Perylene Diimide: A Versatile Building Block for Complex Molecular Architectures and a Stable Charge Storage Material Margarita Milton Properties such as chemical robustness, potential for synthetic tunability, and superior electron-accepting character describe the chromophore perylene-3,4,9,10-tetracarboxylic diimide (PDI) and have enabled its penetration into organic photovoltaics. The ability to extend what is already a large aromatic core allows for synthesis of graphene ribbon PDI oligomers. Functionalization with polar and ionic groups leads to liquid crystalline phases or immense supramolecular architectures. Significantly, PDI dianions can survive in water for two months with no decomposition, an important property for charge storage materials. We realized the potential of PDI as an efficient negative-side material for Redox Flow Batteries (RFBs). The synthetic tunability of PDI allowed for screening of several derivatives with side chains that enhanced solubility in polar solvents. The optimized molecule, PDI[TFSI]2, dissolved in acetonitrile up to 0.5 M. For the positive-side, we synthesized the ferrocene oil [Fc4] in high yield. The large hydrodynamic radii of PDI[TFSI]2 and [Fc4] preclude their ability to cross a size exclusion membrane, which is a cheap alternative to the typical RFB membranes. We show that this cellulose-based membrane can support high voltages in excess of 3 V and extreme temperatures (−20 to 110 °C).

Abraham* Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology, Northeastern UniVersity, 360 Huntington AVenue, Boston, Massachusetts 02115 Edward J. Plichta and Mary A. Hendrickson U.S. Army CERDEC, Army Power DiVision, Ft. Monmouth, New Jersey 07703 ReceiVed: March 5, 2010; ReVised Manuscript ReceiVed: March 23, 2010 A fundamental study of the influence of solvents on the oxygen reduction reaction (ORR) in nonaqueous electrolytes has been carried out for elucidating the mechanism of the oxygen electrode processes in the rechargeable Li-air battery. Using either tetrabutylammonium hexafluorophosphate (TBAPF6) or lithium hexafluorophosphate (LiPF6) electrolyte solutions in four different solvents, namely, dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO), acetonitrile (MeCN), dimethoxyethane (DME), and tetraethylene glycol dimethyl ether (TEGDME), possessing a range of donor numbers (DN), we have determined that the solvent and the supporting electrolyte cations in the solution act in concert to + influence the nature of reduction products and their rechargeability. In solutions containing TBA ,O2 reduction is - + a highly reversible one-electron process involving the O2/O2 couple. On the other hand, in Li -containing electrolytes - 2- 2- relevant to the Li-air battery, O2 reduction proceeds in a stepwise fashion to form O2 ,O2 , and O as products. These reactions in the presence of Li+ are irreversible or quasi-reversible electrochemical processes, and the solvents have significant influence on the kinetics, and reversibility or lack thereof, of the different reduction products. The - + stabilization of the one-electron reduction product, superoxide (O2 )inTBA solutions in all of the solvents examined + - can be explained using Pearson’s hard soft acid base (HSAB) theory involving the formation of the TBA ---O2 + complex.
