Synthesis was performed in a “one-pot”, two-step procedure, in the presence of organic base (Et3N, DBU or NMM), and carbon disulfide via dithiocarbamates, with 4-(4,6-dimethoxy-1,3,5-triazin-2-yl)-4- methylmorpholinium toluene-4-sulfonate (DMT/NMM/TsO−) as a desulfurization reagent. For the synthesis of aliphatic and aromatic isothiocyanates, reactions were carried out in a microwave reactor, and selected alkyl isothiocyanates were also synthesized in aqueous medium with high yields (72–96%). Isothiocyanate derivatives of L- and D-amino acid methyl esters were synthesized, under conditions without microwave radiation assistance, with low racemization (er 99 > 1), and their absolute configuration was confirmed by circular dichroism. Isothiocyanate derivatives of natural and unnatural amino acids were evaluated for antibacterial activity on E. coli and S. aureus bacterial strains, where the Citation: Janczewski, Ł.; Kr˛egiel,D.; most active was ITC 9e.

  • Proceedings of the Indiana Academy Of
    Preliminary Tests with Systemic Insecticides 1 George E. Gould, Purdue University A systemic insecticide is one that is absorbed by the plant and translocated in the sap so that parts of the plant other than those treated become toxic to sucking insects. This type of insecticidal action was demonstrated for selenium compounds by Gnadinger (1) and others as early as 1933. These compounds were never used extensively as quantities of the material dangerous to humans accumulated in sprayed plants or in plants grown in treated soils. Recently German chemists have developed a number of phosphorus compounds that show systemic action. In our tests three of these compounds have been tried in com- parison with three related phosphorus compounds for which no systemic action has been claimed. The development of these systemic and other phosphorus compounds have been based on the discoveries of the German chemist Schrader in 1942 (German patent 720,577). After World War II this information became available to the Allied Governments and soon numerous com- pounds were released for experimental purposes. At present three of the non-systemic compounds, parathion, hexaethyl tetraphosphate and tetraethyl pyrophosphate, are available commercially. The first of the systemics tested was C-1014, a formulation similar to Pestox 3 (octa- methylpyrophosphoramide) which has been used in England. The other two in our tests were Systox with its active ingredient belonging to a trialkyl thiophosphate group and Potasan, diethoxy thiophosphoric acid ester of 7-hydroxy-4-methyl coumarin. Two additional phosphorus com- pounds used in some tests included Metacide, a mixture containing 6.2% parathion and 24.5% of 0, O-dimethyl O-p-nitrophenyl thiophos- phate, and EPN 300, ethyl p-nitrophenyl thionobenzine phosphonate.

  • Particularly Hazardous Substances
    Particularly Hazardous Substances In its Laboratory Standard, OSHA requires the establishment of additional protections for persons working with "Particularly Hazardous Substances" (PHS). OSHA defines these materials as "select" carcinogens, reproductive toxins and acutely toxic materials. Should you wish to add: explosive, violently reactive, pyrophoric and water-reactve materials to this category, the information is included. Carbon nanotubes have also been added due to their suspected carcinogenic properties. This table is designed to assist the laboratory in the identification of PHS, although it is not definitively conclusive or entirely comprehensive. *Notes on the proper use of this table appear on page 12. 1 6 5 2 3 4 Substance CAS National Toxicity National Program Carcinogen Toxin Acute Regulated OSHA Carcinogen Group IARC Carcinogen Toxin Reproductive Violently Reactive/ Explosive/Peroxide Forming/Pyrophoric A-a-C(2-Amino-9H-pyrido[2,3,b]indole) 2648-68-5 2B Acetal 105-57-7 yes Acetaldehyde 75-07-0 NTP AT 2B Acrolein (2-Propenal) 107-02-8 AT Acetamide 126850-14-4 2B 2-Acetylaminofluorene 53-96-3 NTP ORC Acrylamide 79-06-6 NTP 2B Acrylyl Chloride 814-68-6 AT Acrylonitrile 107-13-1 NTP ORC 2B Adriamycin 23214-92-8 NTP 2A Aflatoxins 1402-68-2 NTP 1 Allylamine 107-11-9 AT Alkylaluminums varies AT Allyl Chloride 107-05-1 AT ortho-Aminoazotoluene 97-56-3 NTP 2B para-aminoazobenzene 60-09-3 2B 4-Aminobiphenyl 92-67-1 NTP ORC 1 1-Amino-2-Methylanthraquinone 82-28-0 NTP (2-Amino-6-methyldipyrido[1,2-a:3’,2’-d]imidazole) 67730-11-4 2B

A listing of Particularly Hazardous Substances that Carnegie Mellon University has published with their Chemical Hygiene plan is also provided as general reference. The list is useful cross check with GHS listings to determine which materials require prior approval for use BUT NO LIST IS COMPLETE you must check the SDS for possible additional chemicals rated as highly toxic. This appendix also provides the GHS (global harmonization system) for chemical hazard classification under the Hazard Communication Standard for highly toxic materials. This section provides overall information about categories under the classification of acute toxicity, mutagens’, reproductive and carcinogen hazards. When chemicals are rated on the GHS – Safety Data Sheet (SDS) as the following hazards then the PRIOR APPROVAL PROCESS WITH CHEMICAL HYGIENE OFFICER/COMMITTEE must be used: Acute toxicity category 1 and 2, Germ cell mutagenicity as a category 1A Substances known to induce heritable mutations in germ cells of humans and Category 1B: Substances which should be regarded as if they induce heritable mutations in the germ cells of humans, Reproductive Hazard as a category 1: Known or presumed human reproductive toxicants and Category 2; suspected human reproductive toxicant. Carcinogen as a Category 1 (includes 1A and 1B): Known or presumed human carcinogens, Category 2: Suspected human carcinogens.
