  • Retention Indices for Frequently Reported Compounds of Plant Essential Oils
    Retention Indices for Frequently Reported Compounds of Plant Essential Oils V. I. Babushok,a) P. J. Linstrom, and I. G. Zenkevichb) National Institute of Standards and Technology, Gaithersburg, Maryland 20899, USA (Received 1 August 2011; accepted 27 September 2011; published online 29 November 2011) Gas chromatographic retention indices were evaluated for 505 frequently reported plant essential oil components using a large retention index database. Retention data are presented for three types of commonly used stationary phases: dimethyl silicone (nonpolar), dimethyl sili- cone with 5% phenyl groups (slightly polar), and polyethylene glycol (polar) stationary phases. The evaluations are based on the treatment of multiple measurements with the number of data records ranging from about 5 to 800 per compound. Data analysis was limited to temperature programmed conditions. The data reported include the average and median values of retention index with standard deviations and confidence intervals.

  • EPA Method 8315A (SW-846): Determination of Carbonyl Compounds by High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC)
    METHOD 8315A DETERMINATION OF CARBONYL COMPOUNDS BY HIGH PERFORMANCE LIQUID CHROMATOGRAPHY (HPLC) 1.0 SCOPE AND APPLICATION 1.1 This method provides procedures for the determination of free carbonyl compounds in various matrices by derivatization with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine (DNPH). The method utilizes high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) with ultraviolet/visible (UV/vis) detection to identify and quantitate the target analytes. This method includes two procedures encompassing all aspects of the analysis (extraction to determination of concentration). Procedure 1 is appropriate for the analysis of aqueous, soil and waste samples and stack samples collected by Method 0011. Procedure 2 is appropriate for the analysis of indoor air samples collected by Method 0100. The list of target analytes differs by procedure. The appropriate procedure for each target analyte is listed in the table below.

The highest activity with 100% total conversion and 96% yield of aldehydes was obtained with the Rh/nano-ZnO catalyst. The Rh/nano-ZnO catalyst was found to be more stable and active than the corresponding rhodium catalyst supported on bulk ZnO. The favorable morphology of Rh/nano-ZnO particles led to an increased metal content and an increased number of weak acid sites compared to the bulk ZnO supported catalysts. Both these factors favored the improved catalytic performance.

Twenty-one male lambs were fed a commercial concentrate diet after weaning and were harvested at 101 ± 6.5 days of age. From the Longissimus thoracis, 26 volatile compounds were identified, with hexanal, 2-propanone, and nonanal the most abundant (57.17% relative percentage abundance, RPA). The effect of ageing (1 vs. 4 d) was observed (p < 0.05) in six compounds: 1,4-dimethylbenzene decreased with ageing, Citation: Insausti, K.; while tridecane, 3-methylbutanal, 2-heptanone, 3-octanone, and 1-octen-3-ol increased.

Here we focused on carpenter ants, which rely on odours in Published various behavioural contexts. We studied overshadowing, a phenomenon that occurs when animals having 2 March 2015 learnt a binary mixture respond less to one component than to the other, and less than when this component was learnt alone. Ants were trained individually with alcohols and aldehydes varying in carbon-chain length, either as single odours or binary mixtures. They were then tested with the mixture and the components. Overshadowing resulted from the interaction between chain length and functional group: alcohols Correspondence and overshadowed aldehydes, and longer chain lengths overshadowed shorter ones; yet, combinations of these requests for materials factors could cancel each other and suppress overshadowing. Our results show how ants treat binary should be addressed to olfactory mixtures and set the basis for predictive analyses of odour perception in insects. M.G. (martin.giurfa@ univ-tlse3.fr) or P.D. dours play a key role in most aspects of animal behaviour.

  • Lab 14: Qualitative Organic Analysis
    Lab 14: Qualitative Organic Analysis Written by Danielle M. Solano Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry California State University, Bakersfield Objectives By the end of this laboratory, you should have developed the skills to do the following: • Determine the functional group of an unknown compound by using classification tests. • Understand the purpose of a synthetic derivative. Background Organic chemists often must identify unknown compounds. In some cases, such as a reaction, you may have a good idea of what the compound in question is. However in other cases, such as when you isolate a compound from a natural source, you may have no idea what the compound might be. In this experiment you will determine the identity of an unknown compound. First, you will need to purify your compound, then you will need to identify its functional group (it will contain only one), and finally you will need to make a derivative of the compound. You will confirm your results with boiling or melting point, IR, and NMR. Impurities in your compound will make it extremely difficult to identify. Thus, before you do anything else, you will need to make sure your unknown compound is pure. Consider each of the following purification techniques you have learned over the course of the year. 1. Recrystallization: Works well for solid compounds. You will need to find an appropriate recrystallization solvent. Consider a variety of solvents and mixed solvent systems. 2. Distillation: Works well for liquids that have a boiling point of <250 °C. (Note: Fractional distillation may be required if you suspect impurities close to the boiling point of your unknown.) 3.
