USE OF NITROOXY ORGANIC MOLECULES IN FEED FOR REDUCING METHANE EMISSION IN RUMINANTS, AND/OR TO IMPROVE RUMINANT PERFORMANCE

The present invention relates to a method for reducing the production of methane emanating from the digestive activities of a ruminant and/or for improving ruminant animal performance by using, as active compound at least one organic molecule substituted at any position with at least one nitrooxy group, or a salt thereof, which is administrated to the animal together with the feed. The invention also relates to the use of these compounds in feed and feed additives such as premix, concentrates and total mixed ration (TMR) or in the form of a bolus.

Separation of Diastereomeric and Enantiomeric Alkyl Nitrates - Systematic Approach to Chiral Discrimination on Cyclodextrin LIPODEX-D

High-resolution gas chromatographic separation of all diastereomeric monomethyl-substituted cyclohexyl nitrates is shown on a nonpolar methylpolysiloxane stationary phase, and the first application of this procedure to the environmental diastereomeric analysis of alkyl nitrates is presented.Two characteristic signals in the achiral analysis of atmospheric samples could be assigned to the smallest alkyl nitrate containing two asymmetric carbon atoms, 3-methyl-2-pentyl nitrate.Retention indices in the temperature-programmed separation based on the n-alkanes were determined.The homologous series of 1-alkyl nitrates were found to be useful as ECD-visible n-alkanes.Enantiomeric separation of alkyl nitrates was achieved on heptakis(3-O-acetyl,-2,6-di-O-pentyl)-β-cyclodextrin (LIPODEX-D).The influence of the nitrooxy group and the alkyl chain length on the chiral discrimination on LIPODEX-D is discussed for 25 chiral alkyl nitrates.The absolute configurations of some alkyl nitrates were assigned by asymmetric synthesis of enantiomerically pure references.The complexity of the alkyl nitrate mixtures present in air samoles does not allow a direct chiral separation as the alkyl nitrates partly coelute on the LIPODEX-D column.Column coupling of LIPODEX-D with a polar achiral stationary phase like polyalkylenglocol (PAG) was successfully applied to solve this problem, and the chiral alkyl nitrates present in a typical air sample were separated.A systematic nomenclature for alkyl nitrates is introduced to handle the steadily growing number of branched and long-chain nitrates detected in environmental analysis. - Keywords: analytical methods; alkyl nitrates; chiral resolution; cyclodextrins; gas chromatography

Mercury-assisted solvolyses of alkyl halides. Simple procedures for the preparation of nitrate esters, acetate esters, alcohols and ethers

The reactions of a wide variety of alkyl halides with mercury(I) and/or (II) nitrate in 1,2-dimethoxyethane, mercury(II) acetate in acetic acid, aqueous mercury(II) perchlorate, and mercury(II) perchlorate in alcohol solvents have been investigated; as a result, simple high yield procedures for the conversion of alkyl halides into the corresponding nitrate esters, acetate esters, alcohols and ethers have been developed.
