  • Transcription 12.01.12
    Lecture 2B • 01/12/12 We covered three different reactions for converting alcohols into leaving groups. One was to turn an alcohol into an alkyl chloride, that was using thionyl chloride. Second reaction was using tosyl chloride; the primary difference between those two reactions is one of stereochemistry. An inversion of stereochemistry does occur if you use thionyl chloride, because it does affect the carbon-oxygen bond, but because forming a tosylate does not touch the carbon-oxygen bond, only the oxygen- hydrogen bond, there’s no change in stereochemistry there. We then saw phosphorus tribromide that reacts very similarly to the thionyl chloride; you get an alkyl bromide instead, but it also has inversion of configuration. The last reaction is not a new mechanism, it is just an Sn2 reaction, it’s called the Finkelstein reaction. Really this works, in a sense, off of Le Châtelier’s principle. In solution, in theory, sodium iodide can displace bromide, but sodium bromide can displace iodide, so you can have an Sn2 reaction that goes back and forth and back and forth and back and forth. Except, sodium iodide is somewhat soluble in acetone, while sodium chloride and sodium bromide are not. So, in fact, one of the things that we get out of this as a by-product is sodium bromide, which, again, is not soluble in acetone and therefore precipitates out and is no longer part of the reaction mixture, so there’s no reverse reaction possible. Because of this solubility trick, it allows this reaction to be pulled forward, which means you can get the alkyl iodide.

    sustainability Article Strategies to Introduce n-Butanol in Gasoline Blends Magín Lapuerta *, Rosario Ballesteros and Javier Barba Escuela Técnica Superior de Ingenieros Industriales, University of Castilla-La Mancha, Av. Camilo José Cela s/n, 13071 Ciudad Real, Spain; [email protected] (R.B.); [email protected] (J.B.) * Correspondence: [email protected] Academic Editors: Gilles Lefebvre and Francisco J. Sáez-Martínez Received: 13 February 2017; Accepted: 7 April 2017; Published: 12 April 2017 Abstract: The use of oxygenated fuels in spark ignition engines (SIEs) has gained increasing attention in the last few years, especially when coming from renewable sources, due to the shortage of fossil fuels and global warming concern. Currently, the main substitute of gasoline is ethanol, which helps to reduce CO and HC emissions but presents a series of drawbacks such as a low heating value and a high hygroscopic tendency, which cause higher fuel consumption and corrosion problems, respectively. This paper shows the most relevant properties when replacing ethanol by renewable n-butanol, which presents a higher heating value and a lower hygroscopic tendency compared to the former. The test matrix carried out for this experimental study includes, on the one hand, ethanol substitution by n-butanol in commercial blends and, on the other hand, either ethanol or gasoline substitution by n-butanol in E85 blends (85% ethanol-15% gasoline by volume). The results show that the substitution of n-butanol by ethanol presents a series of benefits such as a higher heating value and a greater interchangeability with gasoline compared to ethanol, which makes n-butanol a promising fuel for SIEs in commercial blends.

  • Process Design and Simulation of Propylene and Methanol Production Through Direct and Indirect Biomass Gasification by Bernardo
    Process Design and Simulation of Propylene and Methanol Production through Direct and Indirect Biomass Gasification by Bernardo Rangel Lousada A dissertation submitted to the graduate faculty of Auburn University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master in Chemical Engineering Auburn, Alabama August 6, 2016 Keywords: Process Design, Gasification, Biomass, Propylene, Methanol, Aspen Plus, Simulation, Economic, Synthesis Copyright 2016 by Bernardo Lousada Approved by Mario R. Eden, Chair and McMillan Professor of Chemical Engineering Allan E. David, John W. Brown Assistant Professor Professor of Chemical Engineering Selen Cremaschi, B. Redd Associate Professor Professor of Chemical Engineering Abstract As a result of increasing environmental concerns and the depletion of petroleum resources, the search for renewable alternatives is an important global topic. Methanol produced from biomass could be an important intermediate for liquid transportation fuels and value-added chemicals. In this work, the production of methanol and propylene is investigated via process simulation in Aspen Plus. Two gasification routes, namely, direct gasification and indirect gasification, are used for syngas production. The tar produced in the process is converted via catalytic steam reforming. After cleanup and treatment, the syngas is converted to methanol which will be further converted to high value olefins such as ethylene, propylene and butene via the methanol to propylene (MTP) processes. For a given feedstock type and supply/availability, we compare the economics of different conversion routes. A discounted cash flow with 10% of internet rate of return along 20 years of operation is done to calculate the minimum selling price of propylene required which is used as the main indicator of which route is more economic attractive.

  • Methanol:Acetone Fixation and PGL-1 Staining Protocol
    MeOH/Acetone fixation and staining of C. elegans for anti-PGL-1 whole-mount staining adapted by Erik Andersen from Mello Lab protocol by Daryl Conte, February, 2006 Things you will need: Micro Slides, precleaned, frosted, 25 x 75 mm (VWR cat no. 48312-002) Micro cover glasses, 25 mm square (VWR cat no. 48366-067) Micro cover glasses, 18 mm square (VWR cat no. 48366-045) PAP pen Polylysine (Sigma) Coplin jars Block/wedge of dry ice in Styrofoam box with lid – dry ice must be flat as slides will be placed on top 100% Methanol (-20°C in Coplin jar) 100% Acetone (-20°C in Coplin jar) Humid chamber – a plastic lidded box with moistened paper towels or whatmann paper in the bottom and a support to hold slides above paper Gravid adult worms or Larvae grown at 23ºC for at least two generations Mounting medium with antifade DAPI or other counterstain Glass Depression slide Water in which to wash larvae 20 μL pipet and mouth-pipette tubing Coating slides with polylysine – do this the day before. Many slides can be coated and stored for future use. 1. Prepare 0.01% polylysine solution. 2. Pipette polylysine solution (about 10 μL) onto surface of slide. 3. Dry slides thoroughly at 65°C. I dry them overnight. 4. It seems best to label your slides with a diamond pen, because later alcohol-fixation steps dissolve most inks. Fixing larvae to slides 1. Transfer >100 larvae of the same stage to 100 μL of water in a glass depression slide. It is very important to pick animals of the same stage, as larger worms, detritus or embryos will not allow for good crushing and subsequent fixation.
