Introduction Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) consist of two or more benzene-ringed compounds made of only carbon and hydrogen. Compounds which are made of two rings are known as di- aromatics whereas those made of three benzene rings are known as tri- aromatics and so forth. As the number of rings increase, molecular weights of these compounds also increase and the compounds tend towards

What are the effects of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons on the organ systems of aquatic invertebrates? A study in Biology Dusty Vincer, Advisor by Shruti Gajbhiye During the recent Deepwater Horizon oil spill, millions of gallons of oil were dispersed in the Gulf of Mexico in the same area known as the Gulf of Mexico Hypoxic Zone. The hypoxic zone along the Gulf Coast contains less than the normal amount of dissolved oxygen, at two parts per million. The little to no oxygen is theorized

could also differ in being bonded to carbons that are attached to a different number of other carbons. The three different types of hydrogens that could be found were aromatic, aliphatic, and benzylic. The first category is aromatic hydrogens, which are attached to sp2 carbons or are those directly bonded to an aromatic ring. Aromatic hydrogens are the least reactive of the hydrogens in this experiment. The second type of hydrogen being investigated is aliphatic hydrogens, which are found bonded to

toluene, ethylbenzene, tert-butylbenzene, cyclohexane, and methylcyclohexane. All solutions were a dark orange right after the addition of bromine. Toluene had 1º benzylic and 2º aromatic hydrogens. Ethylbenzene had 2º benzylic, 1º aliphatic, and 2º aromatic hydrogens. tert-butylbenzene had 1º aliphatic and 2º aromatic hydrogens. Cyclohexane had 2º aliphatic hydrogens and methylcyclohexane had 1º, 2º, and 3º aliphatic hydrogens. In the set that was exposed to light, Ethylbenzene was the first to

using fractional analysis and gravimetric methods to determine the aliphatic, aromatic and polar hydrocarbons fraction (Manli Wu, 2017). Also, DNA extraction, PCR and Illumina MiSeq sequencing were done on the soil, was noted that they knew to do this process since it was done on a by a previous study (Manli Wu, 2017). Multiple copies of the extracted 16S rRNA were done using 2 different primers and then sequenced on the Illumina MiSeq (Manli Wu, 2017). Similarly, a CD-HIT method was used to compare

mechanism essentially function by first initiation step in which the halogenated molecule splits into two halogenated radicals which is followed by the formation of a hydrocarbon radical. The next step of the radical mechanism, propagation, involves the hydrocarbon molecule reaction with a halogenated molecule, thus producing a hydrocarbon halogen (R-X) compound, and more halogenation molecule thus allowing the reaction to continue on to completion. A control mechanism will allow for the prediction of

Experiment B10- Photocromism and Piezochromism Reece Harms 4320288 Introduction This experiment investigates an oxidative coupling reaction in an to synthesise triphenylimidazole dimer from 2,4,5-triphenyl-1H-imidazole. The resulting compound was investigated for both photochromic and piezochromic properties by way of formation of a stable radical, utilizing visual observations and UV-Vis as a means of distinction. Both the oxidative coupling reaction and the dimers interaction with light

Bromination of E-Stilbene Kelly Marroquin Fall 2017 Lab Section: 353-01 Lab Partner: Seon Lee  Abstract: The bromination of the alkane was calculated and the overall percent yield was 96.35% with the percent yield with the calculated theoretical yield was 79.85%. The addition reaction was synthesized with a mechanism using 3 steps. The E-Stilbene reacted with pyridinium hydromide perbromide to form the pure (1R, 2S)-stilbene dibromide. One of the two diastereomeric products, the other would be

Carbon peaks that are not present on the spectra. These include the remaining two Carbons on the benzene ring and the Carbon that is in the carboxylic acid functional group. The theoretical peak locations for these Carbons would be 145-135 ppm for the aromatic Carbons and 200-180 ppm for the carbonyl Carbon. Our 60 MHz is not precise enough to separate these small peaks from the noise generated by the machine. Now with the specific number of Carbon-Hydrogen environments, we shall construct Ibuprofen’s

Battle Between Absorbency: Clay and Charcoal Abstract Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are extremely dangerous to human and aquatic life when presented in water. The removal of the PHAs are done by using absorbent material. In this experiment we tested Bentonite clay and charcoal by finding the absorbency of both. The results we came to is the clay is the better absorbent. Introduction Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbons (PAHs) are 16 different pollutants together. Eight of these are considered
