A study of the effect of the addition of small amounts (<3.5%) of the halogenated compounds CCl4, CHCl3, and CDCl3 on the radiolysis of cyclohexane has shown that processes other than radical scavenging occur. At the lowest concentrations of solute that it was practical to employ (0.004 M) cyclohexyl radicals were scavenged without a corresponding reduction in the hydrogen yield. At higher solute concentrations G(H2) was reduced by a physical process which did not involve the scavenging of thermal hydrogen atoms but did lead to chemical reaction involving the solute.

The X-radiolysis of water vapor containing methanol at 125 °C and 1 atm pressure has been studied alone and in the presence of some electron and hydrogen atom scavengers. In water vapor containing methanol only, a plateau value G(H2) = 7.9 ± 0.3 is obtained at all methanol concentrations above 0.5 mole %. Addition of propylene drastically reduces this yield due to efficient scavenging of hydrogen atoms, and values for the total number of H atoms from all precursors g(H)t = 7,5 ± 0.2 and [Formula: see text] are deduced from the competition. An unscavengeable hydrogen yield g(H2) ~ 0.5 is also indicated in mixtures containing propylene. Nitrous oxide and sulfur hexafluoride are found to scavenge electrons efficiently in water vapor containing methanol and the number of hydrogen atoms arising from electron–positive ion recombination is estimated to have a value G = 2.2 ± 0.6. The number of hydrogen atoms arising from processes not involving electrons is g(H) = 5.2 ± 0.3. Carbon tetrachloride reacts efficiently with both electrons and hydrogen atoms, with k(H + CH3OH)/k(H + CCl4) = 0.085. Values of g(H) = 4.9 ± 0.5 and g(H2) = 0.8 ± 0.2 are deduced from mixtures containing carbon tetrachloride.

Objective:This study investigates the hepatoprotective effect and the antioxidant role of polyphenol concentrate in the experimental model of carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induced toxicity. Methods: Antioxidant activity of Cabernet Sauvignon grape polyphenol were evaluated by radical scavenging of 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl hydrazyl radical (DPPH), 2,2’-azinobis(3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS.+). In addition, the effects of polyphenol concentrate on the survival of Wistar rats in the toxicity model, was also investigated. The polyphenol concentrate was administered for 5 five days prior to injection of carbon tetrachloride in a sub-lethal dose of 300 mg/kg of animal body weight in order to perform histological examinations of the liver and kidney, and detect the levels of AST, ALT and bilirubin. Results: Administration of polyphenol concentrate increased animal survival in the experimental model. Moreover, the intragastric administration of polyphenol concentrate prior to the initiation of the experimental model of toxicity, which was caused by a sub-lethal CCl4 dose, reduced morphological injuries in the liver and kidney, decreased the AST and ALT levels of the blood serum. Discussion and conclusion: Our data demonstrate that polyphenol concentrate possesses an antioxidant potential both in vitro and in vivo by reducing antioxidant stress that was caused by CCl4 administration into rats.

The dielectric relaxation processes of acetone, cyclohexanone, 4-methyl-2-pentanone, and 4-heptanone in dilute nonpolar solvents, n-heptane, cyclohexane, benzene, and carbon tetrachloride have been studied in the microwave region over a temperature range 10 to 60 °C. The relaxation times and the thermodynamic parameters for the activated states have been determined using the measured dielectric data. The results have been discussed in terms of dipole reorientation by molecular and intramolecular rotation and compared, wherever possible, with other similar studies on aliphatic molecules.

Rehbinder Effect

It has previously been suggested that the reduction in cutting forces obtained by the presence of fluids such as CCl4 on the backface or free surface of the forming chip was due to diffusion of the fluid into the body of the chip in the region of the shear zone. In the present work, experiments with carbon tetrachloride tagged with carbon-14 and with carbon tetrachloride tagged with chlorine-36 were performed with the object of assessing the extent of diffusion of lubricants into the chip when present on the free surface only. The results obtained disprove former hypotheses and suggest that the reduced cutting force is due solely to chemical reaction at the surface of the chip. Confirmation of the sensitivity of the surface of the deforming shear zone to change in surface condition was obtained by removing metal from this region by an electropolishing technique during slow speed cutting. By varying the electropolishing conditions increased or decreased cutting forces could be obtained. It is proposed that the result both of chemical reaction at the surface and of surface removal is to reduce the strain-hardening rate of the metal undergoing shear by reducing the surface barrier to the flow of dislocations out of the metal. The association of the surface reaction of carbon tetrachloride with a change in the strain-hardening characteristics of the metal in the shear zone leads to a classification of the backface phenomenon as a Rehbinder effect and enables this effect to be more closely defined than was hitherto possible. Evidence is also presented which indicates that the backface effect does not contribute to the reduction in cutting forces during rakeface lubrication and is therefore unimportant in practice where flood lubrication of the cutting region invariably occurs.

Energy transfer in the radiolysis of cyclopentane–cyclohexane mixtures has been studied by observing the yields of HD and D2 obtained when small amounts of cyclohexane-d12 are added. Energy migration occurs from cyclopentane to cyclohexane but this transfer can be prevented by the addition of carbon tetrachloride or iodine. The relative yields of the dimers (C6H11)2, C6H9C6H11, and (C5H3)2 show that the •C6H11 and •C5H9 radicals, which are the precursors of the dimers, can abstract hydrogen atoms from the solvent and may thus change their identity. Added iodine or carbon tetrachloride removes the diffusing radicals, and the residual dimer yield, which is unaffected by solute, has a composition determined solely by the composition of the mixtures. The yields of cyclohexene and cyclopentene show evidence of both energy transfer and radical change of identity.

Abstract Analysis of infrared hydroxyl multimer absorbances of dilute solutions of cholesterol in carbon tetrachloride as a function of the monomer absorbance strongly favours the interpretation of the association of this alcohol with a monomer-dimer-tetramer model up to a molar fraction of 0.012. This model also explains very well the concentration dependence of the apparent dipole moment. Equilibrium constants and dielectric parameters have been determined. Suggestions about the structure of the various associates are made.

The present study was planned to investigate the protective effect of 10 % and 20 % apricot-containing feed on carbon tetrachloride (CCl4)-induced hepatic steatosis and damage. Adult male Wistar rats (n42) were divided into six groups of seven each, as follows: control group; CCl4group; CCl4+10 % apricot group; CCl4+20 % apricot group; 10 % apricot group; 20 % apricot group. All apricot groups were fed with 10 % or 20 % apricot-containing feed for 5 months. CCl4injections were applied to the CCl4groups at the dose of 1 mg/kg for 3 d at the end of 5 months. In the CCl4group, vacuolated hepatocytes and hepatic necrosis were seen, especially in the centrilobular area. Hepatocytes showed an oedematous cytoplasmic matrix, large lipid globules and degenerated organelles. The area of liver injury was found significantly decreased with apricot feeding. Malondialdehyde and total glutathione levels and catalase, superoxide dismutase and glutathione peroxidase activities were significantly changed in the CCl4group and indicated increased oxidative stress. Apricot feeding decreased this oxidative stress and ameliorated histological damage. We concluded that apricot feeding had beneficial effects on CCl4-induced liver steatosis and damage probably due to its antioxidant nutrient (β-carotene and vitamin) contents and high radical-scavenging capacity. Dietary intake of apricot can reduce the risk of liver steatosis and damage caused by free radicals.
