Partial oxidation of cyclohexane (CHA) to KA oil (cyclohexanone (-one) and cyclohexanol (-ol)) with dry air is one of the most important industrial process. Despite great efforts have made in developing new catalysts, industrial processes are still limited by low conversion and selectivity with ...

The efficient selective oxidation of cyclohexane to cyclohexanone and cyclohexanol (KA-oil) under mild conditions remains one of the most challenging and interesting projects in catalytic chemistry. Here, photocatalytic oxidation of cyclohexane was carried out in acetonitrile (MeCN) solution of ...

The separation of benzene and cyclohexane is a challenging process in petrochemical industry due to their close boiling points. Solvent mixing is a useful technique to enhance the extraction performance of liquid–liquid extraction process. In this work, the performance of solvent mixtures invol...

Time-resolved optical Kerr fluorescence system was used to investigate time-resolved red-shift of coumarin 153 in different solvent mixtures. The mixtures included four mole fractions of phenol-cyclohexane solvents (0, 0.013, 0.08, and 0.3), and anisole-cyclohexane solvents with the mole fractio...

In this study, we reported a novel and an unusual method for the preparation of the disulfide-linked symmetrical carbazole derivative and investigated the electrical and optical properties of crosslinked conductive polymer obtained as a result of its electropolymerization. The disulfide-linked N...

A new methacrylate monomer containing ferrocene unit and disulfide bond, 2-((2-(methacryloyloxy)ethyl)disulfanyl)ethyl ferrocenecarboxylate (FcMAss), was prepared by subsequent esterification reaction with bis(2-hydroxyethyl) disulfide and methacryloyl chloride using ferrocenecarboxylic acid as ...

Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is produced by yeast during winemaking and possesses off-flavors reminiscent of rotten eggs. The production of H2S during fermentation has also been associated in the finished wine with the rise of additional volatile sulfur compounds (VSCs) with strong aromas of cooked on...

Disulfide bridges are important structural elements in proteins. It is well-known that the position of the characteristic disulfide band at ca. 500 cm−1 in the vibrational spectra varies with the conformation around the disulfide unit. In our computational study on the model system diethyl disul...

Isothermal vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) for dimethyl disulfide + toluene, dimethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane, dimethyl disulfide + 2,4,4-trimethyl-1-pentene, and diethyl disulfide + 2,2,4-trimethylpentane at 368.15 K were measured with a recirculation still. All systems exhibit posit...

The surface chemistry of diethyl disulfide (DEDS) is studied on polished copper foils and a Cu(111) single crystal, using temperature-programmed desorption, reflection absorption infrared spectroscopy and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. A portion of the DEDS reacts to form ethyl thiolate speci...

Background2-Methoxyethanol (ME) and 2-ethoxyethanol (EE) represent a large group of chemicals which are used separately or as mixtures. These compounds exert multidirectional toxic effects. The present studies aimed to demonstrate the effects of ME and EE alone and their mixture on the reproduct...

Viscosity (η) of (water + 2-methoxyethanol), (water + 2-ethoxyethanol), and (water + ethanolamine) were measured precisely at the temperatures (303.15, 308.15, 313.15, 318.15, and 323.15) K covering the whole composition range. The viscosity deviations (Δη) from linearity based on mole fracti...

Isobaric vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) for methylcyclohexane + 2-methoxyethanol and methylcyclohexane + 2-ethoxyethanol systems were investigated to provide a basis for the design of the separation process of both systems by distillation. The measurements were carried out at 50.00 and 101.33 k...
