Gas chromatographic determination of aldicarb and its metabolites in urine

A method is described for the determination of aldicarb and its metabolites (the sulphoxide and sulphone) in urine by gas chromatography with flame photometric detection (GC-FPD). The sample was concentrated with a column containing activated charcoal and Florisil, and then eluted with dichloromethane-acetone (1:1, v/v). The aldicarb and aldicarb sulphoxide in the eluate solution were oxidized to aldicarb sulphone and the total sulphone concentration was determined by GC-FPD after extraction with dichloromethane and clean-up with an activated charcoal column. The detection limit was 0.0024 mg/l. The mean recoveries from spiked urine in the range 0.04-0.12 mg/l were 90.9%, 86.6%, 92.6% for aldicarb, aldicarb sulphoxide and aldicarb sulphone, respectively.     

A Novel Dihydroflavone from the Roots of Uvaria Macrophylla

Novel synthesis of a strained para-cyclophane derivative

A [P. Rajakumar, A.M.A. Rasheed, Tetrahedron 61（22） （2005） 5351] para-cyclophane derivative was synthesized via intramolecular esterification of a dipeptide surrogate containing asparagine to form tetrahydropyrimidinone ring. The structures of the product and intermediates were characterized by 1H NMR, 13C NMR and mass spectrum.     

Flammability studies of 3-methyl pyridine/water system

In industrial processes, information on the safety property of chemicals is essentially crucial for safe handling during unit operations. Ensuring the safe use of combustible or flammable substances in processes is unlikely without detailed investigations of their flammability characteristics and related hazards. We studied 3-methyl pyridine (3-picoline), e.g., flammability limits (LFL/UFL), maximum explosion pressure (P _max), maximum explosion pressure rise (dP/dt)_max, minimum oxygen concentration (MOC), vapor deflagration index (K _g), and characterized the influence of inert steam (H₂O) on critical parameters for 3-picoline/water mixtures at 270°C, 1 atm, various oxygen concentrations, and vapor mixing ratios (100/0, 30/70, 10/90 and 5/95 vol.%) with a 20-L-Apparatus in simulated conditions, respectively. The results showed that the flammability characteristics of 3-picoline_(aq) all increased with the oxygen concentration. However, as the composition of inert steam increased, the flammability parameters and the degree of fire and explosion hazards were significantly reduced, instead. This study elucidated the flammability properties of 3-picoline mixed with inert steam. The conclusions could be applied to proactively prevent the relevant processes from incurring fire and explosion accidents.

（PdCl2—PVP）／Al2O3催化剂中Pd状态的探讨

氯化钯先锚定在聚乙烯吡咯烷酮上后进一步负载到Al_2O_3上所制的催化剂[简称(PdCl_2-PVP)/Al_2O_3]是一种活性、选择性高,稳定性好的烯烃、二烯烃和多烯烃加氢催化剂。本文结合加氢反应,使用XPS、FT-IR、电镜及用CO为探针的FT-IR,对这种催化剂进行了考察。实验说明,在这种催化剂中,钯的价态是在0—2之间。红外光谱在486cm~(-1)处有一微弱的小峰,说明存在Pd—N的配位键。催化剂中钯含量低时(0.2wt％)稳定性好,不吸附CO,活性中心是络合钯原子;当钯含量较高时(0.7wt％),催化剂的初活性虽不低,稳定性却较差,这种催化剂能吸附CO,IR谱图上仅在1919cm~(-1)处有CO桥式吸附态的伸缩振动。表明除络合钯原子外,还有聚集的钯金属存在。FT-IR尚表明,PVP在Al_2O_3上可能并非单纯的物理吸附。电镜结果表明,PVP在Al_2O_3上呈30—70(?)的微球状,(PdCl_2-PVP)/Al)_2O_3上的(PdCl_2-PVP)亦呈微球状,与前者无明显区别,这种催化剂中其活性中心是络合钯原子。
