A Study Of The Prussian Blue Test For Nitrogen, Marilyn M. Erickson

Bachelors’ Theses

The problem of obtaining good nitrogen tests on all types of organic compounds interested the author as a re­sult of past experience in the identification of organic compounds.

The practical application of a positive solution to this problem would be an aid to the students of charac­terization of organic compounds. It is necessary for them to make an elementary analysis in order to determine the class into which the unknown compound belongs. A nitrogen test which will give definite results will eliminate any doubt as to the presence of nitrogen.

The Trivalent State Of Uranium, Virginia M. Kubacki

Bachelors’ Theses

Besides being of practical importance in the preparation of compounds, the valence of an element is of theoretical significance because it is a clue to the electronic structure of the atom. In the case of elements which have several valences the relative stability and the means of changing from one state of oxidation to another are also important.

Uranium has valences of three, four, five, and six, but the reactivity of the trivalent uranium ion causes difficulties in the preparation of its compounds. Dr. Scott L. Kittsley in his investigation of the trivalency of uranium found that it is possible …

The Effect Of Metallic Fluorides On Oleic Acid At Elevated Temperatures, Lorraine W. Dupuis

Bachelors’ Theses

The problem of finding the effect of metallic fluorine compounds on oleic acid at elevated temperatures was presented in connection with the thesis of J.J. Wocasek of Marquette University. Doctor Wocasek had used fluorine compounds as catalysts in a.n attempt to find a sub­stitute for tung oil. He used the fluorides as catalysts in the esterification of glycerol with unsaturated acids.

Reduction Of Beryllium Compounds With Magnesium, Pei Wang

Masters Theses

"The purpose of this research was to investigate the thermal reduction of beryllium compounds and to devise a method to estimate the metallic beryllium content in the final product"--Introduction, page 1.

The Determination Of The Surface Tension Of Benzyl Ether, Sze-Kwei Min

Masters Theses

"The accurate determination of surface tension is of importance in the investigation of theories of surface structure, the structure of liquids, molecular cohesion, in the study of colloids, especially in physiological work, and in various lines of technical chemistry. The two methods most commonly used for determining surface tension are the capillary rise method and the drop weight method. The theory of the former is simple, but its technique is difficult. Its use in some cases is the cause of errors as high as 30%, due to its inapplicability to certain classes of substance, and is much more sensitive to …

Alkylaminoalkyl Esters Of 2-Thiophene Carboxylic And Furoic Acids, Henry Alouis Rutter Jr.

Master's Theses

The association of local anesthetic activity with alkaninoalkyl ester of aromatic carbonyl acids has been well susbstantietes. Compounds obtained as varieties of the "anesthesiophoric" group are usually capable of some degree of local anesthetic activity.

Alkylaminoalkyl Aryoxyacetates, William Kenneth Easley

Master's Theses

Numerous inInvestigations into the preparation, properties, and effects plant growth substances have been carried out. It has been shown that phenoxyacetic acids, napthoxyacetic acids, esters, anides and salts of phenoxyacetic acids and certain substituted products of these acids are plant growth promoting substances.

It is the purpose ot this work to produce esters of phenoxyacetic and napthoxyacetic acids which contain a secondary amino group and as a result of their ability to form acid salts, such as hydrochlorides, water soluble compounds. These compounds would be readily applicable to plants in sprays.

The Preparation Of Certain Organic Chloroformates And Carbonates, Robert E. Brailsford

Theses and Dissertations

This brief discussion and research paper attempts to correlate a large portion of the information about the preparation of known organic chloroformates and carbonates, to point out the present and possible future uses of these compounds, and to contribute some information concerning the preparation of a number of the organic carbonates. A comparison of the different methods of preparation is made.
