  • 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

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.

  • Safe Handling of Organolithium Compounds in the Laboratory
    FEATURE Safe handling of organolithium compounds in the laboratory Organolithium compounds are extremely useful reagents in organic synthesis and as initiators in anionic polymerizations. These reagents are corrosive, flammable, and in certain cases, pyrophoric. Careful planning prior to execution of the experiment will minimize hazards to personnel and the physical plant. The proper personal protective equipment (PPE) for handling organolithium compounds will be identified. Procedures to minimize contact with air and moisture will be presented. Solutions of organolithium compounds can be safely transferred from the storage bottles to the reaction flask with either a syringe or a cannula. With the utilization of these basic techniques, organolithium compounds can be safely handled in the laboratory. By James A.

Hoepker, Jun Liang, Yun Ma, Kanwal J. Singh, and David B. Collum* Department of Chemistry and Chemical Biology Baker Laboratory, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853-1301, United States *S Supporting Information ABSTRACT: The kinetics of lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) in tetrahydrofuran under nonequilibrium conditions are reviewed. These conditions correspond to a class of substrates in which the rates of LDA aggregation and solvation events are comparable to the rates at which various fleeting intermediates react with substrate. Substrates displaying these reactivities, by coincidence, happen to be those that react at tractable rates on laboratory time scales at −78 °C. In this strange region of nonlimiting behavior, rate-limiting steps are often poorly defined, sometimes involve deaggregation, and at other times include reaction with substrate. Changes in conditions routinely cause shifts in the rate-limiting steps, and autocatalysis is prevalent and can be acute. The studies are described in three distinct portions: (1) methods and strategies used to deconvolute complex reaction pathways, (2) the resulting conclusions about organolithium reaction mechanisms, and (3) perspectives on the concept of rate limitation reinforced by studies of LDA in tetrahydrofuran at −78 °C under nonequilibrium conditions. ithium diisopropylamide (LDA), a highly reactive and at −78 °Cconditions that are of singular importance in L selective Brønsted base, stands among the most prominent organic synthesisoccur at nearly the rates at which the reagents in organic synthesis.1 A survey of 500 total syntheses aggregates in Scheme 1 exchange.

Methods: Cross-sectional study with 93 patients on HD. Hyperuricemia was considered as UA 6.0 mg/dL in females and ≥ 7.0 mg/dL in males. Nutritional variables were registered. Blood samples were taken before the ≥ dialysis session to determine oxidative damage as plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) content, and antioxidant capacity measuring 2,2-diphenyl-piclrylhidrazil radical (DPPH•) scavenging activity and oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) value.
