927 Words4 Pages

Anthracene-9,10-bismethylmalonate (ADMA), Orange G and polystyrene (PS, Mw = 192,000 g/mol) were purchased from Sigma-Aldrich. Acetic acid (glacial), tetrahydrofuran (THF) and dimethylformamide (DMF) were purchased from Saarchem, while Rose Bengal was purchased from Fluka. Water collected from milli-Q water (Millipore corp., Bedford, MA, USA) was used for the preparation of all aqueous solutions. All solvents were dried prior to use using molecular sieves. BODIPY 1 was synthesized using the method described previously described (Fig. 1) [16]. 2.2. Equipment A scanning electron microscope (SEM, JOEL JSM 840 scanning electron microscope) operating at an accelerating voltage of 20 KV was used to determine the morphology of the electropsun nanofibers. …show more content…

An Inca PentaFET Precision coupled to a Vega Tescam operating at a 20 KV accelerating voltage was used to collect the energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) data. UV-visible absorption spectra were measured at room temperature on a Shimazu UV-2550 spectrophotometer using a 1 cm path length cuvette for solution studies and a Perkin Elmer Lambda 950 UV-vis spectrophotometer for solid state measurements. 1H-NMR spectra were recorded in THF on a Bruker AMX 600 spectrometer operating at 600 MHz. Mass spectrometry (MS) measurements were performed on a Bruker Autoflex 111 smartbeam TOF/TOF mass spectrometer. The instrument was operated in positive ion mode over a 400−3000 m/z range. The voltage of the ion source was set at 19.0 and 16.7 kV for ion sources 1 and 2 respectively, while the lens was set at 8.50 kV. The MS data were …show more content…

Rhodamine 6G was employed as a standard in this study with (ΦF = 0.94 in ethanol) [18]. The singlet oxygen quantum yield (ΦΔ) value of BODIPY 1 was studied through a comparative method by monitoring the photo-oxidation of 1,3-diphenylisobenzofuran (DPBF) at different time intervals with Rose Bengal used as the standard (ΦΔ = 0.76 in ethanol [19]). Studies to determine the ΦΔ value of the BODIPY dye embedded PS nanofibers were carried out using the direct chemical method due to a lack of suitable standards. The studies were performed in aqueous solution using ADMA as a chemical quencher; the modified fibers were suspended in the aqueous solution of ADMA and irradiated using a photolysis set up. The quantum yield (ΦADMA) was first calculated using Eq. (1)

The distance between the target and first focal point (fs) of the standard lens were measured to give χ. The focimeter equation〖[F〗_t= F_(s^2 ) x] was used to work out the correct power of the lenses (Ft). A graph was plotted with Ft being the Y value (in dioptres) and χ being the X variable (in metres). Fs2 remained constant.

The purpose of this experiment was to learn about metal hydride reduction reactions. Therefore, the sodium borohydride reduction of the ketone, 9-fluorenone was performed to yield the secondary alcohol, 9-fluorenol. Reduction of an organic molecule usually corresponds to decreasing its oxygen content or increasing its hydrogen content. In order to achieve such a chemical change, sodium borohydride (NaBH4) is used as a reducing agent. There are other metal hydrides used in the reduction of carbonyl groups such as lithium aluminum hydride (LiAlH4).

Tilting the instruments of a known angle b and measuring the output voltage from the PSD, which is proportional to A, from Eq. (1) we calculate GS (Table 1). The measures made on the N-S component of the instrument are more reliable than those on the E-W one that was repaired at best by the OGS technical staff after the partial detachment of the moving mirror. The error associated to with the estimate is evaluated as the amplifier error, equal to 1% on the linearity of the response, plus the uncertainty on the voltmeter, equal to 0.05

Also, it is seen that although with the traditional sum rules analysis , one obtains almost zero value for form factor $C_3^{N \Delta}(Q^2)$, the Monte Carlo analysis shows that this form factor is consistent with significant non-zero values. In the case of $C_4^{N \Delta}(Q^2)$, although the traditional sum rules analysis leads to a value that is significantly away from

The goal of the experiment is to synthesize a bromohexane compound from 1-hexene and HBr(aq) under reflux conditions and use the silver nitrate and sodium iodide tests to determine if the product is a primary or secondary hydrocarbon. The heterogeneous reaction mixture contains 1-hexene, 48% HBr(aq), and tetrabutylammonium bromide and was heated to under reflux conditions. Heating under reflux means that the reaction mixture is heated at its boiling point so that the reaction can proceed at a faster rate. The attached reflux condenser allows volatile substances to return to the reaction flask so that no material is lost. Since alkenes are immiscible with concentrated HBr, tetrabutylammonium bromide is used as a phase-transfer catalyst.

My essay will determine if a local chemical manufacturing plant is in compliance with OSHA Methylene Chloride, specializing in paint stripper for the DOD. Occupational health standard establishes requirements for employers to control occupational exposure to methylene chloride. Exposure may occur through inhalation, by absorption through the skin, or through contact with the skin. The standard requires that the employer establish a regulated area where exposure to airborne concentrations of methylene chloride exceeds or can be expected to exceed either the PEL or the STEL. Determine if the plant is using a soy-based stripper that do not contain methylene chloride, N-methylpyrrolidone, or other toxic solvents, when it comes to paint stripping

The last step in the traditional purification of borrelidin is reverse phase chromatography. In this process, the mobile phase is aqueous (polar), and the stationary phase is a non-aqueous (non-polar) solid. Any hydrophobic compound in the polar phase will adsorb to the stationary hydrophobic phase. The stationary column used here is a C18 bonded silica HPLC (High Performance Liquid Chromatography). After those three chromatography steps, only 2-3 mg of borrelidin were obtained, in comparison to the amount obtained through the chemoselective

Museum about WW1 By Mats Peletier V4A 1226 words Subject 1: Mustardgas Mustard gas, or sulfer mustard, was often used in ww1. It has the ability to form large blisters on exposed skin and in the lungs. Within 24 hours of exposure to mustard gas, victims experience intense itching and skin irritation, which gradually turns into large blisters filled with yellow fluid wherever the mustard gas contacted the skin. Mustard gas vapor easily penetrates clothing fabrics such as wool or cotton, so it is not only the exposed skin of victims that gets burned.
