A detailed chemical kinetic model for the supercritical water oxidation of methylamine: The importance of imine formation

A detailed chemical kinetic model has been developed for supercritical water oxidation (SCWO) of methylamine, CH₃NH₂, providing insight into the intermediates and final products formed in this process as well as the dominant reaction pathways. The model was adapted from previous mechanisms, with a revision of the peroxyl radical chemistry to include imine formation, which has recently been identified as the dominant gas-phase pathway in amine oxidation. The developed model can reproduce previous experimental data on methylamine consumption and major product formation to reasonable accuracy, although with deficiencies in describing the induction time. Our simulations indicate that oxidation of the ^•CH₂NH₂ radical to methanimine, CH₂NH, is the major channel in methylamine SCWO, with subsequent hydrolysis of CH₂NH providing the experimentally observed reaction products ammonia and formaldehyde. Integral-averaged reaction rates were used to identify major reaction pathways, and a first-order sensitivity analysis indicated that the concentration of CH₃NH₂ is most sensitive to OH radical kinetics. Overall, this work clarifies the importance of imine chemistry in the oxidation of nitrogen-containing compounds and indicates that they are necessary to model these compounds in SCWO processes.     

Hydrogenation of Aldehydes and Ketones to Corresponding Alcohols with Methylamine Borane in Neat Water

Chemoselective hydrogenation of various aldehydes and ketones with methylamine borane (MeAB) in neat water was investigated. MeAB is suitable for green organic reactions, for MeAB is a nontoxic, environmentally benign, and easily handled reagent. Aldehydes were selectively and rapidly hydrogenated in excellent yields (86–97%) for 30 min, but hydrogenation of aromatic ketones needed over 20 h at room temperature because of their poor water solubility and steric hindrance. Thus we investigated polyethylene glycol (PEG400) and acidic cation-exchange D072 resin as catalysts to accelerate the hydrogenation reaction of aromatic ketones and achieved excellent yields within several hours. PEG 400 and D072 resin are both suitable for green organic reactions. The D072 resin was reused up to four times without any significance loss in activity.     

The Synthesis of Mono- and Bi-Metallic Platinum(II) and/or (IV) Complexes Containing the Ligand Bis(diphenylphosphino) Methylamine

Complexes of the type [Pt R₂ (dppma-PP′)] (R─Me, Et, Ph, CH₂Ph, C₆H₄ Me-p, C₆H₄OMe-2, CH₂CMe₃, 1-naphthyl, C₆H₄Me-o, dppma = Ph₂PNMe PPh₂) have been prepared from [PtCl₂, (dppma-PP′)] and the corresponding alkyl-lithium or Grignard reagents. Equilibrium constants, k, for the conversion of [PtR₂ (dppma-PP′)] into cis-[PtR₂(dppma-P)₂] with dppma were studied using ³¹P NMR spectroscopy at room temperature. Equilibrium is rapidly established for R─C₆H₄-Me-o, at 20°C. Complex of the type cis-[PtR₂ (dppma-P)₂] was isolated R─C₆H₄ Me-o. The complexes [PtMe₂(dppma-P)₂] and [Pt(o-methoxyphenyl)₂(dppma-P)₂] were prepared, but unfortunately decomposed once isolated, the only evidence for its formation being from ³¹P-{¹H} NMZR spectroscopy. The o-tolyl or 1-naphthyl complexes exist as syn-anti mixtures in solution, due to restricted rotation around the platinum aryl bonds. Treatment of several complexes of the type [PtR₂(dppma-PP′)] with MeI gives [PtR₂Me(I)(dppma-PP′)] with trans addition of MeI. Treatment of [PtR₂(dppma-PP′)] with HCl gives [Pt Cl (R) (dppma-PP′)] for R─C₆H₂Me₃-2,4,6, C₆H₄-CH₃-2, C₆H₄-Me-4, Me, 1-naphthyl. The ¹H, ³¹P NMR parameters for these complexes are discussed. Attempted preparation of complexes of the type [PtR₂ (dppma-P)₂M] (R─C₆H₄-Me-2, Me CN-C₆H₄-Me-4); M─Pd, Pt, Au,) are reported.

Graphic Data Analysis and Complex Formation Curves as Modelling and Optimization Tools in Potentiometric and Voltammetric Speciation Studies of a Pb?(TAPSO)x?(OH)y System

The formation of complex species between lead and TAPSO, a commercialized biological buffer, was evidenced and discussed. Formation constants of Pb? (TAPSO)_x? (OH)_y system have been studied by direct current polarography and by glass electrode potentiometry at fixed total–ligand and total–metal concentration ratio and varied pH, at 25.0 °C and ionic strength set to 0.1 M KNO₃. The graphic analysis revealed to be a very powerful tool in the prediction and refinement operations of Pb–(TAPSO)_x? (OH)_y system. The proposed final model for this system is: PbL, PbL₂, PbL₂(OH) and PbL₂(OH)₂, with stability constants values, as log β, of 3.7±0.1, 6.6±0.1, 12.9±0.1 and 17.8±0.1, respectively.
