different procedures for the syntheses of the title compounds were investigated. the best method for the preparation of the title compounds were the reaction of the readily available 2-formyl-1-methyl-5-nitroimidazole2- substituted-4-formylthiazoles with alkyl acetoacetate and alkyl aminocrotonate in boiling alcohol.

Alkyldihydroxyacetone-P (alkyl-DHAP) synthase, the enzyme that forms the ether linkage of alkyl and alk-1-enyl glycerolipids, has been solubilized from ehrlich ascites cell microsomes using Triton X-100 and acetone precipitation. the solubilized enzyme, which is stabilized by glycerol or ethylene glycol, was then purified further by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose, QAE-Sephadex, Matrex Red, an...

Nineteen adjuvants, many used as surfactants for aquatic herbicide applications, were applied in static bioassay to bluegill sunfish (Lepomis macrochirus) for 96 h to determine median lethal concentrations (LC50). Surfactants are added to the tank mix as a percentage (v/v) of the total volume, in contrast to herbicide application rates, which are usually expressed in kilograms per hectare. Two ...

Dowex-50W-hyodrgen ion exchange resin was used as a reusable catalyst for the synthesis of oxazoline, imidazoline and thiazoline derivatives through condensation reaction between arylnitriles and 2-aminoalcohol, ethylenediamine or 2-aminoethanthiol. This process provides several advantages such as excellent yields of the products, simple operation, convenient separation and inexpensive and recy...

In the title compound, C(9)H(9)ClN(2), a substituted imidazoline, the six- and five-membered rings are twisted from each other, making a dihedral angle of 17.07 (5)°. In the crystal structure, a short Cl⋯Cl [3.3540 (3) Å] inter-action is observed. Neighbouring mol-ecules are linked together by inter-molecular N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds into a one-dimensional infinite chain along the [101] direction a...

Potential biological properties of newly synthesized single and double alkyl chain N-oxides of tertiary amines (NTA) were studied. Individual compounds in each of the series had alkyl chains of different length. Various experiments were performed to determine a mechanism of the interaction between NTA and model and biological membranes. These were measurements of hemolytic efficiencies of NTA (...

A general empirical relationship has been developed for estimating the cloud point of pure nonionic surfactants of the alkyl ethoxylate class. For a set of 62 structures, composed of linear alkyl, branched alkyl, cyclic alkyl, and alkylphenyl ethoxylates, cloud points can be estimated to an accuracy of ±6.3°C (3.7°C median error) using the logarithm of the number of ethylene oxid...

The oxidation and degradation of hydrocarbons at high temperature and pressure in the presence of oxygen is one of the common oil product problems. There are many antioxidants to prevent or inhibit oxidation processes; molybdenum and zinc dithiocarbamates are known as powerful antioxidants. In this paper, the oxidation inhibition time of cumene has been investigated using zinc and molybdenum di...

Alkyl-branched fatty compounds are of interest for industrial products in the cosmetics and lubricant areas. In this review, clayand zeolite-catalyzed isomerizations of unsaturated fatty compounds, especially of oleic acid, are discussed. While clay-catalyzed reactions give most complex mixtures of dimeric fatty acids and of monomeric so-called “isostearic acid”, the zeolite-catalyzed process y...

The comprehensive two-dimensional gas chromatography/time-of-flight mass spectrometry (GC × GC/TOFMS) has been used to characterize a crude oil and a source rock extract sample. During the process, a series of pairwise components between monocyclic alkanes and mono-aromatics have been discovered. After tentative assignments of decahydronaphthalene isomers, a series of alkyl decalin isomers have...
