The results show that the addition of OB100(30%of octanol, 70% of biodiesel) improves the spray characteristics of the fuel. Specifically, the addition of 10% or 20% of OB100 leads to a slight increase in the spray tip penetration, average spray cone angle, maximum spray width, and the spray area of the fuel blend;however, further addition of OB100 causes a corresponding decrease in these parameters. Based on previous research, this study uses kinematic viscosity instead of dynamic viscosity and density to modify the prediction model of spray tip penetration. The modified model exhibits a better fit quality and agreement with the experimental data,making it more suitable for predicting the spray tip penetration of fuel blends compared to the Hiroyasu-Arai model.展开更多

Theadsorption mechanism of octanol and BHA on the surface of cassiterite was analyzed by adsorption experiments and infrared spectraanalysis. Micro-flotation results indicated that single octanol exhibited almost no collecting power to cassiterite over a wide pHrange. However, as an auxiliary collector, octanol could markedly decrease the consumption of collector BHA and keep the recoveryof cassiterite in high level. The results of adsorption experiments and infrared spectra demonstrated that single octanol was notadsorbed on the surface of cassiterite. It formed adsorption connected with BHA on the surface of cassiterite, and enhanced thehydrophobicity of cassiterite. Octanol promoted the adsorption amount of BHA on the cassiterite surface, and decreased theconsumption of BHA.展开更多

The multiple linear regression(MLR) and partial least squares regression(PLS) methods were employed to build two relationship models between the structures and octanol/water partition coefficients(LogP) of the compounds. The modeling correlation coefficients(R) were 0.976 and 0.922, and the "leave one out" cross validation correlation coefficients(R(CV)) were 0.973 and 0.909, respectively. The results showed that the structural descriptors could well characterize the molecular structures of the compounds; the stability and predictive power of the models were good.展开更多

The geometrical optimization of substituted anilines has been performed at B3LYP/6-311G^** level with Gaussian98 program, and the molecular surface areas of substituted anilines were calculated using ChemOffice 2004 program. The calculated structural parameters of substituted anilines were used as theoretical descriptors and the two-parameter (molecular surface area (MA) and the energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EaoMo)) quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) model of lgKow for substituted aniline with molecular structural parameters was developed by multi-linear regression method. The regression coefficient square (r^2) is 0.990 and the standard deviation SE 0.109. The model was validated by variance inflation factors (VIF) and t-test, and the results show that there exists small self-correlation between variables of the model with perfect stability. The model gives results in good qualitative agreement with experimental data. At last, the model was applied to predict lgKow values of five substituted anilines whose lgKow values have not been determined experimentally.展开更多

The structural parameters were obtained and significant correlation between the C1 substitution position and some structural parameters was found. Consequently, the number of C1 substitution positions was taken as theoretical descriptors to establish two novel QSPR models for predicting lgKow and -lgSw of all PCDD congeners. The two models achieved in this work contain two variables (Na and Nβ), of which r = 0.9312, 0.9965 and SD = 0.27, 0.12 respectively, and t values are all large. The variation inflation factors (VIF) of variables in the two models herein are both less than 5.0, suggesting high accuracy of the lgKow and -lgSw predicting models, and the results of cross-validation test also show that the two models exhibit optimum stability and good predictive power. By comparison, the correlation and predictive ability of the present work are more advantageous than those obtained using semi-empirical AM1 and GC-RI methods.展开更多

With GQSARF2.0 program, the correlation equations that can predict n-octanol/water partition coefficient (lgKow) were developed using the structural and thermodynamic parameters of 28 alkyl(1-phenylsulfonyl) cycloalkane-carboxylates with experimental data of lgKow as theoretical descriptors; the correlation coefficient (R^2) was 0.9452 and the cross-validation squared correlation coefficient (Rcv^2) 0.9312. Furthermore, a four-variable model from MEDV was obtained, of which R2 = 0.9497 and Rov^2 =0.9388. The models were validated by variance inflation factor (VIF) and t-test. Cross-validation indicates that the correlation and predicting ability of the model based on both DFT method and MEDV are more advantageous than those obtained from semi-empirical AM1 method.展开更多

Based on the experimental data of octanol/water partition coefficient (lgKow), three-parameter (energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO), the most positive, atomic net charges of molecule (q^+) and molecular average polarizability (α)) dependent equations were developed using structural parameters as theoretical descriptors.

Herein, some quantitative structure-property relationship (QSPR) studies were performed to estimate and predict the lgK ow of substituted anilines. 2D method (multiple linear regression, MLR) and 3D method (comparative molecular field analysis, CoMFA) were applied in this study. Successful 2D and 3D models yielded the correlation coefficient (R2) values of 0.981 and 0.966 and the Leave-One-Out (LOO) cross-validated correlation coefficient (q2) values of 0.933 and 0.820, respectively. The developed models have a highly predictive ability in both internal and external validation. In addition, the results were interpreted in terms of physical and chemical meanings of descriptors and field contribution maps. It showed that the steric and electrostatic properties are the primary factors that govern the lgK ow of substituted anilines. The information obtained from the QSPR models would be helpful to the interpretation of structural features pertinent to the lgK ow of substituted anilines, which may be helpful in estimating the organic compounds' potential harm to the environment.展开更多

The results show that 1-octanol/water partition coefficient of each quinolone increased with the increase of temperature. Based on the fluid phase equilibrium theory, the thermodynamic relationship of 1-octanol/water partition coefficient depending on the temperature was proposed, and the changes of enthalpy, entropy, and Gibbs free energy for quinolones partitioning in 1-octanol/water were determined, respectively. Quinolones molecules partitioning in 1-octanol/water was mainly an entropy driving process, during which the order degree of system decreased. The temperature effects of 1-octanol/water partition coefficient were investigated. The results show that its magnitude is the same as the values in the literature.展开更多

The catalyst thus obtained was characterized by various physicochemical techniques, and used for the liquid phase dehydrogenation/oxidation of octanol in a batch reactor at various temperatures in the range 30 °C - 60 °C. Maximum conversion of octanol to octanal was attained at 60°C in 30 min. However, with longer reaction time, the selectivity of the catalyst was found to change in favor of octene as a product. The catalyst could be recovered and reused multiple times without any decline in its catalytic performance.展开更多

Based on the theoretical linear solvation energy relationship (TLSER) model, the obtained structural parameters were taken as theoretical descriptors to establish the novel quantitative structureproperty relationship (QSPR) model for predicting n-octanol/water partition coefficients (lgKow) of PCDFs. The new model of lgKow achieved in this work contains three variables: energy of the highest occupied molecular orbital (EHOMO), the most negative atomic partial charge (q^-) and average molecular polarizability (a), of which R^2= 0.9011 and SD = 0,17 with larger t values. In addition, the variation inflation factors (VIF) of variables in the present model are all less than 5.5, suggesting high accuracy of the lgKow model. And the results of cross-validation test (q^2 = 0.8688) and method validation also show this model exhibits optimum stability and better predictive power than semi-empirical method. At the same time, it is found that the aqueous solubility (-lgSw) has high relative correlation with constant volume molar heat capacity (Cv^0), of which R^2 = 0.9777 and SD = 0.22. Moreover, lgKow and -lgSw values of all PCDF congeners were predicted respectively.展开更多

Lipase catalyzed kinetic resolution has proved to be an efficient technique for synthesis of enantiomerically enriched compounds. In the present study, optimization and kinetic modeling of kinetic resolution of (±)-2-octanol was done by using vinyl acetate as an acyl donor in n-heptane as a solvent. Response surface methodology (RSM) and four-factor-five-level Centre Composite Rotatable Design (CCRD) were employed to evaluate the effect of various parameters such as speed of agitation, enzyme loading, temperature and acyl donor/alcohol molar ratio on conversion, enantiomeric excess (ee), enantioselectivity and initial rate of reaction. Acylation of 2-octanol with vinyl acetate catalyzed by Novozyme 435 follows the ternary complex mechanism (ordered bi-bi mechanism) with inhibition by 2-octanol.展开更多
