SOLVENTS FOR DICHLORAMINE-T

Equipment for HCFC Solvents

The use of the new HCFC solvents involves some design changes for equipment. These changes will achieve emission rates with HCFC solvents similar to those experienced with the present CFC solvents. New equipment designs are now available for HCFC solvents from several manufacturers. Modifications to existing equipment to allow HCFC solvent use have also proved feasible in many cases and offer a...

Chlorinated solvents

Tools for identifying gelator scaffolds and solvents.

Small molecule gelators are serendipitously discovered more often than they are designed. As a consequence, it has been challenging to develop applications based on the limited set of known materials. This synopsis highlights recent strategies to streamline the process of gelator discovery, with a focus on the role of unidirectional intermolecular interactions and solvation. We present these st...

Ionic liquids. Green solvents for the future*

Ionic liquids, being composed entirely of ions, were once mainly of interest to electrochemists. Recently, however, it has become apparent that, inter alia, their lack of measurable vapor pressure characterizes them as green solvents, and that a wide range of chemical reactions (reviewed here) can be performed in them.
