The photolysis of ketene in the presence of hydrogen has been investigated in the temperature range −40° to 207 °C. The main products are CO, C2H4, C2H6, and CH4, with some methyl ethyl ketone at the higher temperatures. Hydrogen and ketene compete for CH2 radicals by the reactions[Formula: see text]with E3 − E2 = 0.8 kcal. At the higher temperatures the reaction[Formula: see text]leads to a chain reaction via[Formula: see text]The value of E6 is found to be 10.2 ± 0.5 kcal. in good agreement with previous work.

The gas phase reaction of hydrogen atoms with carbon suboxide was studied over the temperature range of−96 to 235 °C and was found to proceed via a chain reaction. The products found were CH4, CO, CH2CO, C2H6, (CHO)2, and polymer. A mechanism is proposed and the chain reaction is explained by the intermediate formation of ketene and the formyl radical.

The reactions of methylene radicals with acetaldehyde and propionaldehyde have been studied over the temperature range 48–118 °C and over a range of pressures of aldehyde and carbon dioxide. From acetaldehyde, the main products were carbon monoxide, methane, ethane, and acetone, with small amounts of ethylene at low pressures of acetaldehyde. With carbon dioxide present, small amounts of propylene oxide were formed, but propionaldehyde was not observed. The main products from the reaction with propionaldehyde were carbon monoxide, methane, ethane, and ethylene, with small amounts of methyl ethyl ketone, butene oxide, and isobutyraldehyde. The relation of the results to the relative rates and mode of attack of methylene on the various bonds is discussed.

The liquid phase photolysis of diethyl ketone has been studied in the temperature range from −35° to 95 °C. The CO quantum yield at 95 °C. was found to be close to unity. At 28 °C. decrease in intensity and addition of heptane led to a substantial increase of the CO and the ethane yields.The methyl ethyl ketone liquid phase photolysis at temperatures between 5° and 75 °C. led to the same observations. Arrhenius plots of RE/RB1/2[K] gave for both compounds a value of 5 kcal./mole.Gas phase studies in the temperature range of 0° to 60 °C. confirmed the low CO quantum yield reported previously and showed evidence for disproportionation and recombination reactions between ethyl and propionyl radicals.

SummaryEnovid (5 mg norethynodrel and 0.075 mg ethynylestradiol-3-methyl ether) therapy in young normal human subjects causes an increase in plasma fibrinogen of 32.4% (P >C 0.001). Consideration of this effect together with other effects of Enovid on the activity of specific blood coagulatory factors suggests that the steroids are exerting their effect at a specific site of the blood coagulation and/or fibrinolytic system. The broad spectrum of changes which are induced by the steroids may be attributed to a combination of a chain reaction and feed-back control.

In this paper, we have performed the Lipozyme 435-catalyzed synthesis of xylose oleate in methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) from xylose and oleic acid. The effects of substrates’ molar ratios, reaction temperature, reaction time on esterification rates, and Lipozyme 435 reuse were studied. Results showed that an excess of oleic acid (xylose: oleic acid molar ratio of 1:5) significantly favored the reaction, yielding 98% of xylose conversion and 31% oleic acid conversion after 24 h-reaction (mainly to xylose mono- and dioleate, as confirmed by mass spectrometry). The highest Lipozyme 435 activities occurred between 55 and 70 °C. The predicted Ping Pong Bi Bi kinetic model fitted very well to the experimental data and there was no evidence of inhibitions in the range assessed. The reaction product was purified and presented an emulsion capacity close to that of a commercial sugar ester detergent. Finally, the repeated use of Lipozyme 435 showed a reduction in the reaction yields (by 48 and 19% in the xylose and oleic acid conversions, respectively), after ten 12 h-cycles.
