Natural halogenated fatty acids: their analogues and derivatives.
A comprehensive survey has been made of all fatty acids containing halogen atoms covalently bonded to carbon and which are deemed as naturally occurring. Generally thought to be minor components produced by many different organisms, these interesting compounds now number more than 300. Recent research, especially in the marine area, indicates this number will increase in the future. Sources of ...
متن کاملPurification and characterization of a bacterial dehalogenase with activity toward halogenated alkanes, alcohols and ethers.
An enzyme that is capable of hydrolytic conversion of halogenated aliphatic hydrocarbons to their corresponding alcohols was purified from a 1,6-dichlorohexane-degrading bacterium. The dehalogenase was found to be a monomeric protein of relative molecular mass 28,000. The affinity for its substrates was relatively low with Km values for short-chain haloalkanes in the range 0.1-0.9 mM. The aliph...
متن کاملEnhanced dehalogenation of halogenated methanes by bimetallic Cu/Al.
A low-cost and high effective copper/aluminum (Cu/Al) bimetal has been developed for treatments of halogenated methanes, including dichloromethane, in near neutral and high pH aqueous systems. Bimetallic Cu/Al was prepared by a simple two-step synthetic method where Cu was deposited onto the Al surface. The presence of Cu on Al significantly enhanced rates of degradation of halogenated methanes...
متن کاملLiquid Density of Alkanes and Halogenated Alkanes Mixtures in a Corresponding States Format
The Corresponding States (CS) density models for mixture proposed here, one for saturated and one for compressed liquid, are analytically similar to the pure fluid liquid density exposed in the former paper, but now with critical constants and 8,, replacing wm , as from the mixing rules. The mixing rules present two adjustable interaction coefficients for each binary pair, but they are set to u...
متن کاملLiquid Density of Pure Alkanes and Halogenated Alkanes in a Corresponding States Format
The development of a three parameters Corresponding States (CS) model is here proposed aiming at the prediction of the saturated and compressed liquid density of pure fluids pertaining to the two conformal families of alkanes (A) and hydrofluorocarbons (HFC) which are widely used as refrigerants. Two fluids of the same family are chosen for both their acentric factor value and for the saturated...
