Deuteriumand N-induced isotope effects on H and C chemical shifts of the imino moiety of 16 trans-N-benzylideneaniline (tBA) isotopomers were determined and analysed. These effects appear to be a sensitive probe of molecular conformation and its changes. All determined deuterium isotope effects on the imino-proton are small and negative and are spread in the range from −0.88 ppb in 4-H-tBA to −...

A number of nucleobase-based barbiturates have been synthesized by combination of nucleic acid bases and heterocyclic amines and barbituric acid derivatives through green and efficient multicomponent route and one pot reaction. This approach was accomplished efficiently using aqueous medium to give the corresponding products in high yield. The newly synthesized compounds were characterized by s...

Design, economics, and plantwide control of a glycerol-tert-butyl alcohol (TBA) etherification plant are presented. The reaction takes place in liquid phase, in a plug flow reactor, using Amberlyst 15 as a catalyst. The products' separation is achieved by two distillation columns where high-purity ethers are obtained and a section involving extractive distillation with 1,4-butanediol as solvent...

The objectives of this study were 1) to evaluate the ability of trenbolone acetate (TBA) administered in tandem with LHRH immunization to suppress reproductive function in bulls and 2) to examine the effects of LHRH and androgen (TBA) signaling on pituitary gland function. Forty-four Angus × Hereford crossbred calves (BW=225 ± 2 kg; age=187 ± 6 d) received castration, LHRH immunization, or TBA ...

Four aromatic hybrid Anderson polyoxomolybdates with Fe(3+) or Mn(3+) as the central heteroatom have been synthesized by using a pre-functionalization protocol and characterized by using single-crystal X-ray diffraction, FTIR, ESI-MS, (1) H NMR spectroscopy, and elemental analysis. Structural analysis revealed the formation of (TBA)3 [FeMo6 O18 {(OCH2 )3 CNHCOC6 H5 }2 ]⋅3.5 ACN (TBA-FeMo6 -bzn;...

The UV absorption method and the thiobarbituric acid (TBA) test for oxidation of an aqueous suspension of linoleate were compared. The absorption method depends on the formation of hydroperoxides having conjugated double bonds that absorb strongly at 233 nm. The absorption at 233 nm increased markedly during oxidation of linoleate catalyzed by either ascorbic acid or cupric ions. The concentrat...
