Pyrolysis oil from the slow pyrolysis of German brown coal from Schöningen, obtained at a temperature of 500°C, was separated and analyzed using hyphenation of gas chromatography with an atmospheric pressure chemical ionization source operated in negative ion mode and Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry (GC-APCI-FT-ICR-MS). Development of this ultrahigh-resolving analysi...

Forty-five workers at 11 paving sites across the United States were evaluated for exposure to paving asphalt (bitumen) fumes. Traditional measures of exposure such as total particulate matter (TPM) and benzene soluble matter (BSM) were monitored. In addition, total organic matter (TOM), which includes both the BSM residue and the more volatile components that pass through the filter and are col...

the difficult to handle and store zinc borohydride, zn(bh4)2, is stabilized by supporting it on polyvinylpyridine. this new mild, efficient, selective, and regenerable polymer supported borohydride reducing agent reduces a variety organic compounds such as, aldehydes, a-b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds, acid chlorides, epoxides, disulfides, as well as reductive acetylation of carbonyl compounds...

The 1,2,3,4-tetrahydro-isoquinolin-4-one 4 reacts as an α-amino ketone with periodate to give various products, the major compound being 1-hydroxy-1,2-dihydro-3,4-isoquinolinedione 12. Upon stepwise oxidation with Hg(II)-EDTA the 4-hydroxyisoquinolinium ion 14 is detected as an intermediate and its further oxidation with periodate gives rise to an almost identical product spectrum. Because 12 r...

The pharmacological and physicochemical analysis of structurally optimized N-alkyl-substituted indazole-5-carboxamides, developed as potential drug and radioligand candidates for the treatment and diagnosis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and other neurological disorders, is reported. Recent efforts have been focused on the development of subnanomolar potent, selective MAO-B (N1-alkyl-substituted c...

Herein we describe NMR experiments and structural modifications of 4-methyl-2-phenylpyrimidine-N-acylhydrazone compounds (aryl-NAH) in order to discover if duplication of some signals in their ¹H- and ¹³C-NMR spectra was related to a mixture of imine double bond stereoisomers (E/Z) or CO-NH bond conformers (syn and anti-periplanar). NMR data from NOEdiff, 2D-NOESY and ¹H-NMR spectra at differen...

The high interest of isotopically labelled compounds is induced by two important factors: (i) improvement highly sensitive and precise analytical methods for isotope identification (ii) development new synthetic approaches compounds. However, there still a lack efficient cheap the design deuterium liquid crystalline materials. Herein, continuous flow system was adapted synthesis deuterated Liqu...
