Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of reaction time and temperature on the rate of reaction has been measured and the nature of the aldehyde and acid products determined by gas-liquid chromatography.
Abstract: The alkaline nitrobenzene procedure for determining lignin building units has been applied to wheat internodes. The effect of reaction time and temperature on the rate of reaction has been measured and the nature of the aldehyde and acid products determined by gas-liquid chromatography. Survival factors for individual phenolic compounds were determined and found to be in the range 0.85–4.99, and were constant for each compound under the reaction conditions (c 6 % nitrobenzene in 2 M NaOH, 170°C, 2 h in a stainless steel pressure vessel), optimised for maximum recovery of products using wood and wheat internode meals. The reaction products fiom 24 monomeric and dimeric lignin model compounds were quantitativety determined to provide information on the susceptibility of various lignin structures to alkaline nitrobenzene oxidation. The results of these and earlier studies by other authors suggest that at the higher temperature a heterolytic reaction mechanism is operating on nitrobenzene oxidation conditions. On nitrobenzene oxidation, ferulic and p-coumaric acids survived in amounts which allowed the procedure to be used, with appropriate correction factors, to determine the nature and amount of these cinnamic acids associated with walls of grasses.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: In this article, eight species of plants were exposed to nitrobenzene in a hydroponic solution and the transpiration stream concentration factor (TSCF) was 0.72.
Abstract: Eight species of plants were exposed to nitrobenzene in a hydroponic solution. Four species experienced no depression of either transpiration or photosynthetic rates, while one was rapidly killed and the other three were temporarily affected but recovered from the treatment. Uptake of nitrobenzene was passive and was shown to be proportional to the rate of water flux in each species. The transpiration stream concentration factor (TSCF) was 0.72. The root concentration factor (RCF) was variable between the species and was higher than expected, presumably due to deposits of insoluble metabolic products. All of the species examined displayed a capacity to chemically alter nonpolar nitrobenzene into both polar and insoluble products. Volatilization of nitrobenzene from the leaves was a major route of chemical loss.

TL;DR: In this paper, a reaction kinetic study was performed for the reduction of nitrobenzene on a rotating disc electrode for which the current-potential data were supplemented with product-concentration measurements.
Abstract: A reaction kinetic study has been performed for the reduction of nitrobenzene on a Cu electrode in 1m H2SO4 in a 50∶50 (Vol%) mixture of water and 1-propanol at 27°C. The study was carried out on a rotating disc electrode for which the current-potential data were supplemented with product-concentration measurements. The resulting rate expressions represent a reaction mechanism for the reduction of nitrobenzene to aniline and p-aminophenol through the common intermediate phenylhydroxylamine, and incorporate the dependence on reactant concentration and potential for the three predominant reaction pathways. The three major reaction steps were studied independently by performing experiments in which phenylhydroxylamine only was used as the reactant to complement those experiments in which nitrobenzene was used. The kinetic expressions found from measuring the rates of the individual reactions were consistent with the results of experiments in which all the reactions were carried out simultaneously. The expressions obtained are suitable for use in reactor design, modelling and control, and of equal importance, the methodology outlined to extract kinetic parameters from the current and concentration data serves as a model for application to other reaction systems.

TL;DR: In this article, the electronic absorption (UV) spectrum, 59Co, and 13C NMR of potassium hexacyanocobaltate(III), K3[Co(CN)6], were measured in water and a variety of organic solvents: ethylene glycol, methanol, formamide, ethanol, chloroform, nitromethane, dichloromethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, benzonitrile and nitrobenzene.
Abstract: The electronic absorption (UV) spectrum, 59Co, and 13C NMR of potassium hexacyanocobaltate(III), K3[Co(CN)6], were measured in water and a variety of organic solvents: ethylene glycol, methanol, formamide, ethanol, chloroform, nitromethane, dichloromethane, dimethyl sulfoxide, acetonitrile, N,N-dimethylformamide, benzonitrile, and nitrobenzene. The complex salt was dissolved in organic solvents by macrobicyclic polyether, cryptand 222. It was found that the spectra are influenced by the solvent, and vary according to the electrophilic ability (Gutmann’s acceptor number) of solvents. Especially, the 13C NMR chemical shifts of coordinated cyano carbons (octet) have shifted downfield as the acceptor number becomes larger. This means that the solvent influence is caused by direct interaction between the ligand CN− and solvent molecules as electron acceptors. The result concerning the linear correlation between the solvent influence on the peak position (nm) of the first d–d transition band and on the chemical...
