M.S., Department of Chemistry, Wright State University, 2020. Quantum Chemical pKa Estimation of Carbon Acids, Saturated Alcohols, and Ketones via Quantitative Structure-Activity Relationships Acid dissociation constants, often expressed as pKa values, afford vital information with regards to molecular behavior in various environments and are of significance in fields of organic, inorganic, and medicinal chemistry. Several quantitative structure-activity relationships (QSARs) were developed that correlate experimental pKas for a given class of compounds with a descriptor(s) calculated using density functional theory at the B3LYP/6-31+G** level utilizing the CPCM solvent model. A set of carbon 2 acids provided a good final QSAR model of experimental aqueous pKas versus ΔEH2O (R = 0.9647) upon removal of three aldehydes as outliers. A study of saturated alcohols offered a final QSAR model with R2 = 0.9594, which was employed to confirm the behavior of the three aldehydes as hydrated species in aqueous solution. Finally, a study restricted to ketones was conducted to estimate their pKas in dimethyl sulfoxide solution. QSAR models of experimental pKas versus ΔEDMSO for the keto and enol tautomers were modest at best (R2 = 0.8477 and 0.7694, respectively). A binary linear regression was employed to incorporate descriptors representing both the keto and enol tautomers, improving the final R2 to 0.9670 upon removal of one outlier. The QSAR models presented may be utilized to estimate pKas for related compounds not offered in the existing literature or that are challenging to measure experimentally. iii Table of Contents Chapter

  • 1. Disposition and Pharmacokinetics
    1. DISPOSITION AND PHARMACOKINETICS The disposition and pharmacokinetics of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) and related compounds have been investigated in several species and under various exposure conditions. Several reviews on this subject focus on TCDD and related halogenated aromatic hydrocarbons (Neal et al., 1982; Gasiewicz et al., 1983a; Olson et al., 1983; Birnbaum, 1985; van den Berg et al., 1994). The relative biological and toxicological potency of TCDD and related compounds depends not only on the affinity of these compounds for the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), but on the species-, strain-, and congener-specific pharmacokinetics of these compounds (Neal et al., 1982; Gasiewicz et al., 1983a; Olson et al., 1983; Birnbaum, 1985; van den Berg et al., 1994, DeVito and Birnbaum, 1995). 2,3,7,8-TCDD and other similar compounds discussed here are rapidly absorbed into the body and slowly eliminated, making body burden (bioaccumulation) a reliable indicator of time- integrated exposure and absorbed dose. Because of the slow elimination kinetics, it will be shown in this section that lipid or blood concentrations, which are often measured, are in dynamic equilibrium with other tissue compartments in the body, making the overall body burden and tissue disposition relatively easy to estimate. Finally, it will be shown that body burdens can be correlated with adverse health effects (Hardell et al., 1995; Leonards et al., 1995), further leading to the choice of body burden as the optimal indicator of absorbed dose and potential effects. 1.1. ABSORPTION/BIOAVAILABILITY FOLLOWING EXPOSURE Gastrointestinal, dermal, and transpulmonary absorptions represent potential routes for human exposure to this class of persistent environmental contaminants.

  • Working with Hazardous Chemicals
    A Publication of Reliable Methods for the Preparation of Organic Compounds Working with Hazardous Chemicals The procedures in Organic Syntheses are intended for use only by persons with proper training in experimental organic chemistry. All hazardous materials should be handled using the standard procedures for work with chemicals described in references such as "Prudent Practices in the Laboratory" (The National Academies Press, Washington, D.C., 2011; the full text can be accessed free of charge at http://www.nap.edu/catalog.php?record_id=12654). All chemical waste should be disposed of in accordance with local regulations. For general guidelines for the management of chemical waste, see Chapter 8 of Prudent Practices. In some articles in Organic Syntheses, chemical-specific hazards are highlighted in red “Caution Notes” within a procedure. It is important to recognize that the absence of a caution note does not imply that no significant hazards are associated with the chemicals involved in that procedure. Prior to performing a reaction, a thorough risk assessment should be carried out that includes a review of the potential hazards associated with each chemical and experimental operation on the scale that is planned for the procedure. Guidelines for carrying out a risk assessment and for analyzing the hazards associated with chemicals can be found in Chapter 4 of Prudent Practices. The procedures described in Organic Syntheses are provided as published and are conducted at one's own risk. Organic Syntheses, Inc., its Editors, and its Board of Directors do not warrant or guarantee the safety of individuals using these procedures and hereby disclaim any liability for any injuries or damages claimed to have resulted from or related in any way to the procedures herein.

  • Tribute to Biman Bagchi Laser Spectroscopic Groups of One of Us (G.R.F.), Paul Barbara, and Others
    Special Issue Preface pubs.acs.org/JPCB Tribute to Biman Bagchi laser spectroscopic groups of one of us (G.R.F.), Paul Barbara, and others. The solvation dynamics was reported to have times scales faster than dielectric relaxation, which posed a challenge to theorists for proper explanations. Just before joining IISc, Bagchi, in collaboration with G.R.F. and David Oxtoby, had developed a theory of dipolar solvation using a continuum model of the solvent and a frequency dependent dielectric function. The theory predicted a solvation time that was faster than the dielectric relaxation time of the solvent, thus providing an explanation of the experimentally observed fast relaxation of the time dependent solvation energy. The continuum theory was subsequently generalized by Bagchi and co-workers in many different directions such as incorporation of multi-Debye relaxation, non-Debye relaxation, inhomogeneity of the medium around a solute, etc. Still, being based on continuum models, all these extensions lacked the molecularity of the solvent. Besides, these theories considered only the rotational motion of solvent molecules because the dynamics came through the frequency Photo by S. R.

  • Raoult's Law – Partition Law
    BAE 820 Physical Principles of Environmental Systems Henry’s Law - Raoult's Law – Partition law Dr. Zifei Liu Biological and Agricultural Engineering Henry's law • At a constant temperature, the amount of a given gas that dissolves in a given type and volume of liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of that gas in equilibrium with that liquid. Pi = KHCi • Where Pi is the partial pressure of the gaseous solute above the solution, C is the i William Henry concentration of the dissolved gas and KH (1774-1836) is Henry’s constant with the dimensions of pressure divided by concentration. KH is different for each solute-solvent pair. Biological and Agricultural Engineering 2 Henry's law For a gas mixture, Henry's law helps to predict the amount of each gas which will go into solution. When a gas is in contact with the surface of a liquid, the amount of the gas which will go into solution is proportional to the partial pressure of that gas. An equivalent way of stating the law is that the solubility of a gas in a liquid is directly proportional to the partial pressure of the gas above the liquid. the solubility of gases generally decreases with increasing temperature. A simple rationale for Henry's law is that if the partial pressure of a gas is twice as high, then on the average twice as many molecules will hit the liquid surface in a given time interval, Biological and Agricultural Engineering 3 Air-water equilibrium Dissolution Pg or Cg Air (atm, Pa, mol/L, ppm, …) At equilibrium, Pg KH = Caq Water Caq (mol/L, mole ratio, ppm, …) Volatilization Biological and Agricultural Engineering 4 Various units of the Henry’s constant (gases in water at 25ºC) Form of K =P/C K =C /P K =P/x K =C /C equation H, pc aq H, cp aq H, px H, cc aq gas Units L∙atm/mol mol/(L∙atm) atm dimensionless -3 4 -2 O2 769 1.3×10 4.26×10 3.18×10 -4 4 -2 N2 1639 6.1×10 9.08×10 1.49×10 -2 3 CO2 29 3.4×10 1.63×10 0.832 Since all KH may be referred to as Henry's law constants, we must be quite careful to check the units, and note which version of the equation is being used.
