Studies in detoxication. 60. The metabolism of alkylbenzenes: isopropylbenzene (cumene) and derivatives of hydratropic acid.
isoPropylbenzene (cumene) is used as a solvent for cellulose lacquer, although not extensively. It has narcotic properties but no toxic effects in man have been reported (see Browning, 1953). When fed to rabbits it causes the excretion of considerable amounts of conjugated glucuronic acid and the urine reduces Benedict's reagent (Smith, Smithies & Williams, 1954a), but nothing definite is known...
متن کاملStudies in detoxication. 55. The metabolism of alkylbenzenes: (a) glucuronic acid excretion following the administration of alkylbenzenes; (b) elimination of toluene in the expired air of rabbits.
Little is known about the metabolism in the animal body of monoalkylbenzenes other than toluene and ethylbenzene (cf. Williams, 1947). The information available suggests that the n-alkyl side chains undergo w-oxidation followed by $-oxidation of the terminology (Rules of Carbohydrate Nomenclature, J. chem. Soc., 1952, p. 5108), glucosiduronic acids) andthe alcohols asnon-reducing glucuronides. ...
متن کاملFungal Metabolism of n-Alkylbenzenes.
Isolates of Paecilomyces, Verticillium, Beauveria, and Penicillium species were tested for ability to metabolize a variety of n-alkylbenzenes. Minimum side chain lengths were required for metabolism of these substrates. These were C(4) for the Paecilomyces sp., C(8) for the Verticillium sp., and C(9) for the other two isolates. Growth on dodecylbenzene yielded benzoic and phenylacetic acids as ...
متن کاملStudies in detoxication. 69. The metabolism of alkylbenzenes: n-propylbenzene and n-butylbenzene with further observations on ethylbenzene.
An account of our studies on the metabolic fate of toluene, ethyl-, i8opropyland tert.-butyl-benzenes has been given in earlier papers (Smith, Smithies & Williams, 1954a, b, c; Robinson, Smith & Williams, 1955; Robinson & Williams, 1955). The present paper deals with n-propyland n-butyl-benzenes. These two compounds were previously studied by Thierfelder & Klenk (1924), who showed that npropylb...
متن کاملthe role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union
پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
