structurally different trimethyl silyl ethers are oxidized with bu4/nio4 in the presence of alcl3 and bf3 as catalysts in ch3cn and chcl3 under reflux conditions. the corresponding carbonyl compounds are isolated in good yields.

STUDY OBJECTIVE Exposure to cyanide in fires and industrial exposures and intentional cyanide poisoning by terrorists leading to mass casualties is an ongoing threat. Current treatments for cyanide poisoning must be administered intravenously, and no rapid treatment methods are available for mass casualty cyanide exposures. Cobinamide is a cobalamin (vitamin B(12)) analog with an extraordinaril...

Exposure to cyanide causes a spectrum of cardiac, neurological, and metabolic dysfunctions that can be fatal. Improved cyanide antidotes are needed, but the ideal biological pathways to target are not known. To understand better the metabolic effects of cyanide and to discover novel cyanide antidotes, we developed a zebrafish model of cyanide exposure and scaled it for high-throughput chemical ...

Cause Cyanide poisoning of birds is caused by exposure to cyanide in two forms: inorganic salts and hydrogen cyanide gas (HCN). Two sources of cyanide have been associated with bird mortalities: gold and silver mines that use cyanide in the extraction process and a predator control device called the M-44 sodium cyanide ejector, which uses cyanide as the toxic agent. Most of the cyanide mortalit...

A new 2-(5,9-dioxa-13b-boranaphtho[3,2,1-de]anthracene-8-yl)-4-(trimethylsilyl)pyridine-based iridium complex was synthesized for efficient solution-processed sky-blue phosphorescent organic light-emitting diodes (PhOLEDs). The effect of dioxaboranaphthoanthracene instead phenyl with the electron-accepting group, as well bulky pyridine trimethylsilyl on ligand investigated. dopant found to have...

Cyanide is a regulated contaminant in drinking water in the United States. This paper describes an ion chromatography method with pulsed amperometric detection (PAD) that directly determines free cyanide in drinking water. Samples are treated with sodium hydroxide to stabilize cyanide and with a cation-exchange cartridge to remove transition metals. Cyanide is separated by anion-exchange chroma...

For the detection of rare phospholipid, phosphatidylethanol (PEt), GC-MS analysis method was adopted for the detection of derivatization products of PEt by N,O-bis (trimethylsilyl) trifluroacetamide (BSTFA). A re-structured molecule derived from PEt, ethyl bis (trimethylsilyl)-phosphate was found from search of Wiley database. This molecule can be used as a marker for PEt analysis. The molecula...

The U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s (USEPA) current ambient water quality criteria (AWQC) for cyanide were developed in 1984. Since this time, additional research on cyanide toxicity and analytical chemistry has suggested that cyanide AWQC values need to be updated to reflect the current state-of-the-science and to ensure that the methods for implementing the cyanide AWQC reflect the bio...

cyanide ion, is an environmentally significant pollutant in many industrial wastewaters.therefore, a considerable number of methods have been studied for the wastewater treatment containingcyanide. the goal of our work consists in applying a simple and economic process for solving this problem ofpollution. the removal of cyanide ions by using three anion exchange membranes has been studied unde...

abstract cyanide is a colorless, harmful, and dangerous substance with a smell similar to bitter almond. cyanide forms a stable compound with iron and magnesium and interferes with cell activity by interfering with respiration, carbon stabilization and nitrate revival. in order to evaluate cyanide metabolism in fuji and abassi mashhad apples, a factorial experiment was conducted as split plot b...
