A unique mass-flow control system for the carrier gas
in gas chromatography is described and evaluated. Carrier
gas flow is controlled by a flow sensor, feedback electronics,
a flow-control valve and a microcomputer. The
flow-rate is monitored by a mass-flow meter by this system
and the flow is adjusted in...
The satellite structure ("shake-up") present in the X-ray
photoelectron spectra of several planar molecules containing
double bonds has been investigated in the gas phase.
This set consists of three five-membered heterocyclic
molecules, ethylene and two of its fluorinated analogs, and
benzene with three of its fluorinated analogs. In addition,
core...
We report the use of MIL-120 as a water-stable and cost-effective metal-organic framework (MOF) for selectively capturing CO₂ from wet flue gas. Synthesized using inexpensive and environmentally benign reagents in water, MIL-120 possesses one-dimensional pores decorated with hydroxyl-bridged Al(III) ions and benzene rings with an interstitial spacing of 4.78 Å....
Various hypervalent iodine compounds were evaluated as reagents
for intramolecular phenolic oxidative coupling. It was found that
phenyliodine(III) bis(trifluoroacetate) was effective for the coupling
of the monophenolic substrate 13a to 14a under neutral conditions.
Vanadium oxytrifluoride and hypervalent iodine compounds were compared
as oxidants for the conversion of 32 to...
