The rate of hydrolysis of esters in solution is highly dependent on the nature of the alcohols, e.g. hydrolysis of methyl acetate is twice as fast as that of ethyl, n-propyl and n-butyl acetate and six times as fast as that of i8opropyl acetate (Smith & Olsson, 1925). The fact that the different wool esters hydrolyse at approximately the same rate suggests that the rate-controlling step in the ...

The formation of 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium-2-carboxylate in the mixture of CO(2) with 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate under mild conditions (298 K, 0.1 MPa) has been put in evidence in the liquid phase using Raman and infrared spectroscopy complemented by DFT calculations and NMR ((1)H, (13)C, (15)N) spectroscopy.

Non-naturally branched polysaccharides were prepared homogeneously by reaction of cellulose in N,N-dimethyl acetamide/LiCl and the ionic liquid 1-N-butyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride with 2,3,4,6-tetraacetyl-1-bromo-α-D-glucopyranoside in the presence of triethylamine as base. Degrees of substitution up to 0.58 were realized. The samples were soluble in dimethyl sulphoxide and water. NMR spectr...

Many industrial practices and waste treatment operations produce gas streams containing volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that require treatment. Although biological treatment has been applied successfully to treat many waste gases, the literature contains numerous reports of diminished treatment performance under conditions of excessive drying or low pH in biofilter beds. Use of fungi in biofi...

The development of a reactive distillation process for the production of n-butyl acetate by transesterification of methyl acetate with n-butanol is presented. Thermodynamic aspects of the quaternary system n-butyl acetate – n-butanol – methyl acetate – methanol are discussed and UNIQUAC interaction parameters derived using the Dortmund Data Bank (DDB) are given. The reaction kinetics of the het...

In the present work, vinyl benzyl chloride (VBC) was polymerized by using free radical polymerization. The obtained PVBC reacted with dibutyl amine to obtain tertiary modified polystyrene based polymer (PVBC-Dibutyl amine). inverse gas chromatography (IGC) method used examine thermodynamic properties of polymer. Firstly, retention diagrams some polar and non-polar solvents on PVBC-Dibutyl were ...

The carbon dots were prepared by the microwave method, and then TiO2 doped with was successfully synthesized hydrothermal method. Its structure investigated using TEM, XRD XPS. catalyst applied to degradation of lignin base solution (50 mg in 30 mL sodium hydroxide pH = 12) under ultraviolet light. It found that when mass ratio point 1.5:1, dosage 0.75 g/L, time 6 h, rate could reach more than ...

In the title compound, C(14)H(18)N(2)O(3)S, the butyl acetate fragment and the benzoyl group adopt a cis-trans configuration, respectively, with respect to the thiono S atom across the C-N bonds. In the crystal packing, the mol-ecules are linked by inter-molecular N-H⋯O and C-H⋯O hydrogen bonds to form a one-dimensional chain along the c axis. The terminal butyl C atom is disordered with occupa...
