Insight into the experiment and extraction mechanism for separating carbazole from anthracene oil with quaternary ammonium-based deep eutectic solvents

Carbazole is an irreplaceable basic organic chemical raw material and intermediate in industry.The separation of carbazole from anthracene oil by environmental benign solvents is important but still a challenge in chemical engineering.Deep eutectic solvents (DESs) as a sustainable green separation solvent have been proposed for the separation of carbazole from model anthracene oil.In this research,three quaternary ammonium-based DESs were prepared using ethylene glycol (EG) as hydrogen bond donor and tetrabutylammonium chloride (TBAC),tetrabutylammonium bromide or choline chloride as hydrogen bond acceptors.To explore their extraction performance of carbazole,the conductor-like screening model for real solvents (COSMO-RS) model was used to predict the activity coefficient at infinite dilution (γ^(∞)) of carbazole in DESs,and the result indicated TBAC:EG (1:2) had the stronger extraction ability for carbazole due to the higher capacity at infinite dilution (C^(∞)) value.Then,the separation performance of these three DESs was evaluated by experiments,and the experimental results were in good agreement with the COSMO-RS prediction results.The TBAC:EG (1:2) was determined as the most promising solvent.Additionally,the extraction conditions of TBAC:EG (1:2) were optimized,and the extraction efficiency,distribution coefficient and selectivity of carbazole could reach up to 85.74%,30.18 and 66.10%,respectively.Moreover,the TBAC:EG (1:2) could be recycled by using environmentally friendly water as antisolvent.In addition,the separation performance of TBAC:EG (1:2) was also evaluated by real crude anthracene,the carbazole was obtained with purity and yield of 85.32%,60.27%,respectively.Lastly,the extraction mechanism was elucidated byσ-profiles and interaction energy analysis.Theoretical calculation results showed that the main driving force for the extraction process was the hydrogen bonding ((N–H...Cl) and van der Waals interactions (C–H...O and C–H...π),which corresponding to the blue and green isosurfaces in IGMH analysis.This work presented a novel method for separating carbazole from crude anthracene oil,and will provide an important reference for the separation of other high value-added products from coal tar.

Interlayer Energy Transfer from Naphthalene to Anthracene Chromophores Organized in Langmuir-Blodgett Films

Interlayer energy transfer between 2, 3-naphtho-10-hexadecylaza-15-crown-5 (NC16) and N-[1-(9-methoxyanthryl)]decylaza-15-crown-5 (A10C) within multilayer Langmuir-Blodgett films has been studied by steady-state fluorescence spectra. The donor and acceptor could be separated precisely by inserting stearic acid (SA) spacers. The efficiency of the energy transfer increases with the decrease in the donor-acceptor distance by a quadratic manner, suggesting the donor excitations are delocalized in the layer.

Isolation and purification of carbazole contained in anthracene slag by extraction combined with medium pressure liquid chromatography

Ultrasonic-assisted extraction(UAE)combined with medium pressure liquid chromatography(MPLC)was designed for carbazole separation from anthracene slag(AS).The effects of liquid/solid ratio,temperature,and extraction times on carbazole separation were investigated.When using CC14 and ethyl acetate as extraction solvents and combining with MPLC,carbazole recovery and purity are 75.1%and 95.4%,respectively.The mechanism for carbazole separation were presumed by examining intermolecular interactions such as N-H…π,π-π,and C-Cl…πinteractions.These results demonstrate that UAE/MPLC has a considerable potential as a green and promising strategy for separating and purifying carbazole and other chemicals from AS.

Phenothiazine vs 5HT3 Antagonist Prophylactic Regimens to Prevent Post‐Anesthesia Care Unit Rescue Antiemetic: An Observational Study

Purpose: Our practitioners are asked to consider a patient’s postoperative nausea and vomiting (PONV) risk profile when developing their prophylactic antiemetic strategy. There is wide variation in employed strategies, and we have yet to determine the most effective PONV prophylactic regimen. The objective of this study is to compare prophylactic antiemetic regimens containing: phenothiazines to 5HT3 antagonists for effectiveness at reducing the incidence of Post‐Anesthesia Care Unit (PACU) rescue antiemetic administration. Methods: This is an observational study of 4392 nonsmoking, women who underwent general anesthesia for breast surgery from 1/1/2009 through 6/30/2012. Previous history of PONV or motion sickness (HxPONV/MS) and the use of PACU opioids were recorded. Prophylactic antiemetic therapy was left to the discretion of the anesthesia care team. We compared phenothiazines and 5HT3 antagonists alone and with a glucocorticoid to determine the most effective treatment regimen in our practice for the prevention of the administration of PACU rescue antiemetics. Results: Patients who received a phenothiazine regimen compared to a 5HT3 antagonist regimen were less likely to have an antiemetic administered in the PACU (p = 0.0100) and this significant difference in rates holds in a logistic regression model adjusted for HxPONV/MS and PACU Opioid use (p = 0.0103). Conclusions: Based on our findings our clinicians are encouraged to administer a combination of a phenothiazine and a glucocorticoid in female, nonsmoking surgical breast patients for the prevention of PACU rescue antiemetic administration.

The results show that the Npcs model may be used to predict the thermodynamic properties and hydrophilicity for all 135 PCPTZ congeners.

Flame-retarding battery cathode materials based on reversible multi-electron redox chemistry of phenothiazine-based polymer

Polymeric organic battery materials are promising alternatives to the transition-metal-based ones owing to their enriched chemistries. However, the flammability of organic compounds brings in serious concern on battery safety. In addition to use flame-retarding electrolyte/electrolyte additives or battery separators,flame retardancy can readily be achieved through the integration of flame-retarding unit into the polymer backbone, imparting the flame retardancy permanently. The as-designed polymer based on phenothiazine shows significantly shortened self-extinguished time without deteriorating its intrinsic thermodynamic and electrochemical properties. Moreover, two electron per phenothiazine molecule is realized for the first time in a highly reversible manner with discharge voltages of 3.52 V and 4.16 V versus Li+/Li and an average capacity of ca. 120 mAh g-1 at a current rate of 2 C. The origin of the reversibility is investigated through density functional theory(DFT) calculations. These findings address the importance of molecular design for safer and more stable organic materials for batteries.

EPR Study of the Thermal Decomposition of Transannular Peroxide of Anthracene

Thermal decomposition of transannular peroxide of anthracene (POA) (or 9,10-epidioxido anthracene) was studied by means of electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy (EPR) in the solid as well as in the liquid phases. Decomposition process proceeds via cleavage of the O-O bridge of the POA molecule, generating thus an alcoxy intermediate radical. Its concentration increases to a certain equilibrium stage during the time scale of the experiment. EPR spectra in the solid state were of the singlet type at the temperatures over 350 K, a doublet like anisotropic spectra were measured at the room temperature, both having g-value 2.0033. EPR spectrum from POA decomposed in benzene indicates four protons with higher (2aH = 0.305 mT, 2aH = 0.335 mT) and four protons with a lower (2aH = 0.075 mT, 2aH = 0.105 mT) splitting constants, corresponding well the radical expected after cleavage of O-O bridge.
