The synthesis of some noncommercial racemic 1,2-diaryl-2-hydroxyethanones (benzoins) is described, optimizing the previously reported methodologies. In a further step, kinetic resolution these substrates reported, obtaining conversions around 50% and ee(p) higher than 99% in very short reaction times. As enzymatic catalyst, after screening several enzymes, lipase TL (from Pseudomonas stutzeri) was most efficient, working an organic solvent with low log P value, such as THF. Finally,...
The threat posed by Climate Change demands urgent action on finding clean energy solutions with a view to cutting fossil fuel consumption. However, sudden stop in the use of fuels is not possible without profound disruption economy. This transition expected take several decades, and therefore every type renewable should be considered as part solution mix. In this work, we propose including gasoline synthesized from atmospheric CO2 one interim while away liquid intensifies. To that end, have...
Society is continuously facing challenges for safer chemical plants design, which usually driven by economic criteria during the early steps of design process, relegating safety concerns to latest stages. This paper highlights synergy merging Process System Engineering tools with inherent principles. First, we a superstructure that comprises several alternatives streams, equipment, and process conditions, exhibit different performance inherently indicators, total annualized cost, Dow's Fire...
Currently, membrane gas separation systems enjoy widespread acceptance in industry as multistage are needed to achieve high recovery and product purity simultaneously, many such configurations possible. These designs rely on the process engineer's experience therefore suboptimal often result. This article proposes a systematic methodology for obtaining optimal flow sheet corresponding operating conditions. The new approach is applied cross‐flow modules that separate CO 2 from CH 4 , which...
Abstract The technique of holographic interferometly used to visualize the ultrafiltration membrane surroundings makes it possible solute retention and verify whether or not there is cake formation on surface during bovine serum albumin (BSA) protein using a polyethersulfone membrane. experimental results indicate presence gelatinous mass filter BSA mentioned. This was shown by small concentration profile obtained from interferometric information direct observation environs when pump...
Liquid−liquid equilibrium data for the ternary system 1-pentanol + 1-propanol water have been determined experimentally at (25, 50, 85, and 95) °C. The results correlated simultaneously by UNIQUAC method, obtaining a set of interaction parameters valid over temperature range experimental results.
The complexes [Rh2L4{µ-2,3-(NH)2C10H6}][1; L2=(CO)(PPh3) or η4-cod (cyclo-octa-1,5-diene)] and [Rh2L4{µ-1,8-(NH)2C10H6}][2; L2=(CO)(PPh3), η4-cod, η4-nbd (norbornadiene), η4-tfbb (tetrafluorobenzobarrelene)] undergo two sequential one-electron oxidations at a platinum bead electrode. At –78 °C, the chemical oxidation of compound (1; L2=η4-cod) (2; in thf, with [CPh3][BF4] CH2Cl2, gives [Rh2]3+-containing salts [Rh2(η4-cod)2(η-L1)][BF4][1+; L1= 2,3-(NH)2C10H6 2+; 1,8-(NH)2C10H6] which,...
