(1) If heated with iodine as a catalyst, the tertiary alcohol (I) readily yielded the olefin (III). (2) This olefin rearranged immediately to the dicyclic hydrocarbon (II) when digested with concentrated sulfuric acid. (3) Treated with the proper concentration of sulfuric acid, or phosphoric acid, the alcohol (I) passed immediately to the olefin (III), which on longer treatment changed to the i...

Treatment of deactivated aromatic compounds with Nbromosuccinimide in trifluoroacetic acid solvent in the presence of sulfuric acid gave the corresponding monobromoaromatic compounds in good to excellent yields.

PURPOSE The aim of this study was to compare the surface roughness of zirconia when using Zircos E etching system (ZSAT), applying a nitric acid-hydrofluoric acid compound as a pretreatment agent, and also to compare the shear bonding strength according to different resin cements. MATERIALS AND METHODS ZSAT, air abrasion, and tribochemical silicacoating were applied on prepared 120 zirconia s...

The distribution of charged species produced by electrospray of an ammonium sulfate solution in both positive and negative polarities is examined using Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (FTICRMS). Positively-charged ammonium bisulfate cluster composition differs significantly from negatively-charged cluster composition. For positively-charged clusters all sulfuric acid...

The classical procedure for the preparation of homocystine consists of boiling a solution of methionine in 50 per cent sulfuric acid followed by neutralization (1). Although the yields of homocystine account for only 25 to 45 per cent of the methionine, the nature of the reaction has received little attention since originally published by Butz and du Vigneaud (1). These authors noted the format...

This study examines endogenous acid production in a group of stable chronic hemodialysis patients with no residual renal function who were admitted to the chronic hemodialysis unit of Mount Sinai Hospital. Net acid production was estimated by the change in body bicarbonate content, which occurs in the interdialytic period. The body bicarbonate content at any time was measured by multiplying the...

TiO2 nanoparticles were synthesized from titanium isopropoxide by a simple peptization method using sulfuric, nitric, and acetic acids. The effect of peptizing acid on physicochemical and photocatalytic properties of TiO2 powders was studied. The structural properties of synthesized TiO2 powders were analyzed by using XRD, TEM, N2-physisorption, Raman, DR UV-vis, FTIR, and X-ray photoelectron s...

In this work, a tracer study on pore initiation in anodic alumina in oxalic acid was performed. Effects of some experimental parameters such as applied electrical potential, electrolyte composition and heat pretreatment were evaluated. Electrochemical and morphological experiments were performed using potentiostatic anodizing and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) techniques, respectively. Effe...

the characterizations of natural diatomite from birjand deposit (iran) were studied such as chemical compositions, specific surface area, total pore volume, pore size distribution and xrd. the diatomite that was treated only with sulfuric acid displayed a larger surface area, expanded total pore volume and increased pore size in comparison with both washed natural diatomite with deionized water...

Sugarcane bagasse contains cellulose, lignin and hemicellulose, 39-42%, 20-25% and 25-27% respectively. So it is can be used as a sugar source in many processes. Lignin and hemicellulose must be removed before hydrolysis of cellulose. Several different pretreatment approaches have been studied. The purpose of this research is comparison of acid, ozone and combination of ozone-acid as pretreatme...
