  • Used at Rocky Flats
    . TASK 1 REPORT (Rl) IDENTIFICATION OF CHEMICALS AND RADIONUCLIDES USED AT ROCKY FLATS I PROJECT BACKGROUND ChemRisk is conducting a Rocky Flats Toxicologic Review and Dose Reconstruction study for The Colorado Department of Health. The two year study will be completed by the fall of 1992. The ChemRisk study is composed of twelve tasks that represent the first phase of an independent investigation of off-site health risks associated with the operation of the Rocky Flats nuclear weapons plant northwest of Denver. The first eight tasks address the collection of historic information on operations and releases and a detailed dose reconstruction analysis. Tasks 9 through 12 address the compilation of information and communication of the results of the study. Task 1 will involve the creation of an inventory of chemicals and radionuclides that have been present at Rocky Flats. Using this inventory, chemicals and radionuclides of concern will be selected under Task 2, based on such factors as the relative toxicity of the materials, quantities used, how the materials might have been released into the environment, and the likelihood for transport of the materials off-site. An historical activities profile of the plant will be constructed under Task 3. Tasks 4, 5, and 6 will address the identification of where in the facility activities took place, how much of the materials of concern were released to the environment, and where these materials went after the releases. Task 7 addresses historic land-use in the vicinity of the plant and the location of off-site populations potentially affected by releases from Rocky Flats.

  • Synthesis of Trialkyl 2-Halogeno-1,1,1-Ethanetricarboxylates
    General Papers ARKIVOC 2016 (iv) 352-362 Synthesis of trialkyl 2-halogeno-1,1,1-ethanetricarboxylates Juan Zinczuk* and Gustavo A. Carnavale Instituto de Química Rosario (CONICET-UNR . Facultad de Ciencias Bioquímicas y Farmacéuticas Universidad Nacional de Rosario. Suipacha 531- 2000 Rosario - Argentina E-mail: [email protected] DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3998/ark.5550190.p009.567 Abstract A series of trialkyl 2-halogeno-1,1,1-ethanetricarboxylates (Hal = Cl, Br, I) was obtained in high yields by halomethylenation of trialkyl methanetricarboxylates that in turn were derived from dialkyl malonates. The variables that control the reaction (solvent, temperature, time of reaction, base, and alkylating agent) were adjusted to optimize the yield. This new family of compounds may be considered as synthetic equivalents of the unstable dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates. Keywords: Halomethylenation, dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates, trialkyl 2-halogeno-1,1,1- ethanetricarboxylates, optimized synthesis. Introduction We are interested in the reactivity of metallic homoenolates, formally derived from dialky methylmalonates, and proposed the metallation of the appropriate dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates as a method of preparation. Dialkyl (halomethyl)malonates are scarcely referenced in the literature. The only reported example corresponds to diethyl (bromomethyl)malonate, obtained in impure form by Simonsen by reaction of diethyl (2-methoxymethyl)malonate and hydrobromic acid.1 More recently Dowd and Shapiro improved the compound purity but recognized the sensible nature of the bromo compound.2 The study of the halomethylenation of dialkylmalonates began more than a century. The reaction of diethyl malonate (1) and diiodomethane in the presence of sodium ethoxide was first reported by Guthzeit and Dressel in 1888.3,4 They used a half equivalent of diiodomethane and obtained 84% of tetraethyl 1,1,3,3-propanetetracarboxylate (2).

    INFORMATION TO USERS This reproduction was made from a copy of a document sent to us for microfilming. While the most advanced technology has been used to photograph and reproduce this document, the quality of the reproduction is heavily dependent upon the quality of the material submitted. The following explanation of techniques is provided to help clarify markings or notations which may appear on this reproduction. 1. The sign or “target” for pages apparently lacking from the document photographed is “Missing Page(s)”. If it was possible to obtain the missing page(s) or section, they are spliced into the film along with adjacent pages. This may have necessitated cutting through an image and duplicating adjacent pages to assure complete continuity. 2. When an image on the film is obliterated with a round black mark, it is an indication of either blurred copy because of movement during exposure, duplicate copy, or copyrighted materials that should not have been filmed. For blurred pages, a good image of the page can be found in the adjacent frame. If copyrighted materials were deleted, a target note will appear listing the pages in the adjacent frame. 3. When a map, drawing or chart, etc., is part of the material being photographed, a definite method of “sectioning” the material has been followed. It is customary to begin filming at the upper left hand comer of a large sheet and to continue from left to right in equal sections with small overlaps. If necessary, sectioning is continued again—beginning below the first row and continuing on until complete.

Academic Editors: Igor Reva and Xuefeng Wang Received: 27 April 2019; Accepted: 1 May 2019; Published: 10 May 2019 Abstract: The intermolecular interaction in difluoromethane, dichloromethane, dibromomethane, and diiodomethane dimers has been investigated using high level quantum chemical methods. The potential energy curve of intermolecular interaction along the C··· C bond distance obtained using the coupled-cluster theory with singles, doubles, and perturbative triples excitations CCSD(T) were compared with values given by the same method, but applying the local (LCCSD(T)) and the explicitly correlated (CCSD(T)-F12) approximations. The accuracy of other theoretical methods—Hartree–Fock (HF), second order Møller–Plesset perturbation (MP2), and dispersion corrected DFT theory—were also presented. In the case of MP2 level, the canonical and the local-correlation cases combined with the density-fitting technique (DF-LMP2)theories were considered, while for the dispersion-corrected DFT, the empirically-corrected BLYP-D and the M06-2Xexchange-correlation functionals were applied. In all cases, the aug-cc-pVTZ basis set was used, and the results were corrected for the basis set superposition error (BSSE) using the counterpoise method.
