Identification of 1,3-Dioxanes and 1,3-Dioxolanes as Malodorous Compounds at Trace Levels in River Water, Groundwater, and Tap Water
摘要:
A study of organic compounds imparting odor problems in river waters and groundwaters has been conducted. The Tordera aquifer located in Barcelona and Girona (NE Spain) is the water supply reserve for many seasonally crowded villages on the coast. Closed loop stripping analysis (CLSA)and flavor profile analysis (FPA) have been employed as analytical tools to identify the compounds responsible for the odor complaints. The feasibility of purge-and-trap (P&T) has also been evaluated. The 2-alkyl-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxanes and 2-alkyl-4-methyl-1,3-dioxolanes were the most significant compounds identified in river water and groundwater with a threshold odor of 10 ng/L for 2-ethyl-5,5-dimethyl-1,3-dioxane (2EDD), the most malodorous compound. The analyses were carried out by HRGC/MS, and the synthesized 1,3-dioxanes and dioxolanes were characterized by CI-MS and EI-MS/MS techniques. A company, currently manufacturing saturated and unsaturated polyester resins, located in the upper course of the river, produced these compounds as byproducts during the synthesis of resins. The pollution by dioxanes and dioxolanes affected all the aquifer and slowly diminished to the ppt levels when the company was forced to correctly treat their wastewaters. Additional examples of the presence of dioxanes and dioxolanes in wastewaters of other resin plants and also tap water of Barcelona are shown.
3,3,9,9-Tetramethyl-1,5,7,11-tetraoxaspiro[5.5]undecane is introduced as a new, stable and chemoselective reagent for the protection of aldehydes and ketones under mild reaction condition in high yield.
A method for the synthesis of the industrially relevant monomers adipic acid, 1,6-hexanediol (HDO), and 1,6-hexanediamine (HMD) via isomerizing hydroformylation of 1,3-butadiene is described. The aldehyde intermediates are protected in situ as acetals to avoid hydrogenation to pentanal. Adipic aldehyde diacetal is obtained in good yields, and the first examples for the conversion toward adipic acid

HDAC inhibitors of the general formula (I) and (II) and pharmaceutically acceptable salts thereof, as described herein, are useful as inhibitors of histone deacetylases or other deacetylases, and thus are useful for the treatment of various diseases and disorders associated with acetylase/deacetylase activity as described herein (e.g., cancer). In certain embodiments, the compounds of the invention selectively target either a class or isoform of the HDAC family. Another aspect of the invention provides an assay for determining the inhibitory effect of a test compound on an HDAC protein comprising: incubating the HDAC protein with a substrate of general formula (IIIc) in the presence of a test compound; and determining the activity of the HDAC protein.
