The optical rotation of various concentrations of L-valine and L-leucine, dissolved in glacial acetic acid, or 5 or 6 M HCl, was measured with a photoelectric polarimeter at the nominal wavelengths 589, 578, 546, 436, and 365 nm and temperatures of 20, 25, and 30 °C. The specific rotation for any one wavelength, solute, and solvent could be defined by the equation [α]λT = A(1 + D(T − 25)) + BC, where T is temperature in °C, C is concentration in grams of solute per 100 ml of solution, and A, B, and D are constants. The best fit values of the constants were determined by computer calculation and are listed. Constants are also given for calculating a specific rotation based on grams of solute per 100 g of solution.

Abstract Chlorophacinone and diphacinone are extracted at the 0.005% level from grain or paraffinized baits with glacial acetic acid. The target concentration is 0.01 mg/mL. The filtered supernate is chromatographed on a Partisil PXS ODS10/25 liquid chromatography column with premixed and degassed glacial acetic acid-tetrahydrofuran-water (14 + 2 + 9) and detected at 288 nm. The concentration is calculated by using an external standard. The recovery from spiked samples averaged 96.6% for both analytes. The response is linear from 0.001 to 0.040 mg/mL. The coefficient of variation of within-day replicates ranged from 1.1 to 2.5%.

Biochemical Effects

An investigation of the biochemical effects of L-lysophosphatidylcholine (1-acyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphorylcholine) requires as a control for its detergent action the metabolically inert, unnatural enantiomer, D-lysophosphatidylcholine (3-acyl-sn-glycerol-1-phosphorylcholine). The latter can be easily prepared in milligram quantities from the commercially available DL-phosphatidylcholine. For this purpose rac-1,2-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol-3-phosphorylcholine is solubilized with the aid of one-half its weight of taurocholate and hydrolyzed with phospholipase A2 to completion and the intact residual 2,3-dipalmitoyl-sn-glycerol-1-phosphorylcholine recovered by chromatography. The pure D-phosphatidylcholine is then subjected to methanolysis in the presence of octylamine and the product isomerized with glacial acetic acid. The 3-palmitoyl-sn-glycerol-1-phosphorylcholine thus obtained is chromatographically pure, possesses correct optical rotation and NMR spectrum, and is resistant to hydrolysis by phospholipase A2 following reacylation to the diacylphosphatide. Acylation of the 1-sn-lysophosphatide provides a convenient method for preparation of mixed acid 1-sn-phosphatidylcholines which are not otherwise available.

Luminescence thermochronology and thermometry can quantify recent changes in rock exhumation rates and rock surface temperatures, but these methods require accurate determination of several kinetic parameters. For K-feldspar thermoluminescence (TL) glow curves, which comprise overlapping signals of different thermal stability, it is challenging to develop measurements that capture these parameter values. Here, we present multiple-aliquot additive-dose (MAAD) TL dose response and fading measurements from bedrock-extracted K-feldspars. These measurements are compared with Monte Carlo simulations to identify best-fit values for recombination center density ($\rho$) and activation energy ($\Delta E$). This is done for each dataset separately, and then by combining dose-response and fading misfits to yield more precise $\rho$ and $\Delta E$ values consistent with both experiments. Finally, these values are used to estimate the characteristic dose ($D_0$) of samples. This approach produces kinetic parameter values consistent with comparable studies and results in expected fractional saturation differences between samples.

Concentrated Sulfuric Acid

The quantitative determination of the products of bromination of acridine in concentrated sulfuric acid and glacial acetic acid is described. In both cases, the only monobromo products were the 2- and 4-substituted compounds. With sulfuric acid, the 4-isomer predominates whereas in acetic acid, the 2-isomer is predominant. This work expands substantially on the tiny amount of previous work on halogenation of dibenzo-annelated pyridines.
