Introductbn The Michaelis-Arbuzov rearrangement, also known as the Arbuzov rearrangement, Arbuzov reaction, or Arbuzov transformation, is one of the most versatile pathways for the formation of carbon-phosphorus bonds and involves the reaction of an ester of trivalent phosphorus with alkyl halides.

Received: 13 May 2017; Accepted: 4 July 2017; Published: 11 July 2017 Abstract: Organophosphorus compounds containing P-C bonds are increasingly developed as flame retardant additives due to their excellent thermal and hydrolytic stability and ease of synthesis. The latest development (since 2010) in organophosphorus flame retardants containing P-C bonds summarized in this review. In this review, we have broadly classified such phosphorus compounds based on the carbon unit linked to the phosphorus atom i.e., could be a part of either an aliphatic or an aromatic unit. We have only considered those published literature where a P-C bond was created as a part of synthetic strategy to make either an intermediate or a final organophosphorus compound with an aim to use it as a flame retardant. General synthetic strategies to create P-C bonds are briefly discussed. Most popular synthetic strategies used for developing P-C containing phosphorus based flame retardants include Michael addition, Michaelis–Arbuzov, Friedels–Crafts and Grignard reactions.

ABSTRACT This study progresses our earlier studies and takes the performance characteristics of a 1:1 Irganox 1010: Irgafos 168 combination at 1000ppm each through multiple extrusion processes in a metallocene LLDPE (mLLDPE) investigating for the first time the role of a broad range of calcium and zinc stearates based on animal vs vegetable origins of the stearine function.

    Detection, Assessment, and Management of Phytophthora species in an Urban Forest by Mohammed Y. Khdiar (MSc) This thesis is submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy School of Biological Sciences and Biotechnology Murdoch University Perth, Western Australia 2018 I Declaration I declare that this thesis is my own account of my research and contains as its main content work which has not previously been submitted for a degree at any tertiary education institution Mohammed Y. Khdiar July 2018 II Abstract Urban forests contribute to human well-being and environmental health and function, and this role will increase as urbanization continues to grow. Due to anthropogenic activities, urban forests are considered a suitable starting point for invasive pathogens. Members of the genus Phytophthora are important pathogens involved in tree and forest declines worldwide. To date, there are approximately 160 formally described Phytophthora species, with 50% of these species described in the last decade. There are many factors contributing to these recent descriptions, including introductions from the nursery trade, increased studies in forests and natural environments, and an increase in the number of Phytophthora scientists globally. Improved molecular tools to detect and identify Phytophthora species (as like other genera of the oomycetes) has also had a profound effect on the increased number of species that have recently been described. Within urban forests, trees are under considerable stress from polluting agents, mechanical damage, and other human activities and are often in sub-optimum health and are thus more vulnerable to pathogens such as Phytophthora. Two hundred and thirty-six soil and root sites were sampled from declining native Australian trees in 91 parks and nature reserves in the City of Joondalup, Perth Western Australia.
