Versatile Apparatus For Measuring Kinetics Of Gaseous Reactions By A Relative Method, Edmond W. Wilson Jr., Holly A. Sawyer, Amber A. Sawyer
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
It is important that accurate, reproducible values for the rates of chemical reactions occurring in the atmosphere be obtained. The value of accurate kinetics measurements is to improve the accuracy of mathematical models used to forecast the state of the atmosphere. We describe a versatile, robust apparatus for obtaining atmospheric reaction rate values and their temperature dependencies by a relative method. This relative method has the advantage over absolute methods in that errors due to impurities and adsorption on walls of the reaction apparatus are minimized. In addition, relative values serve as an important verification for absolute values. The apparatus …

Preparation Of An Electrophilic 3-Methylindole Derivative: Difficulties In Forming A Stable, Suitable Material For The Preparation Of Tryptophan, Jason Boggs, Mariah Mcmasters, Robert W. Curley Jr., Michael J. Panigot
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
In an attempt to prepare stereoselectively beta-deuterated tryptophan, N-protected indole-3-methanol compounds were prepared with model studies being done on undeuterated material. Conversion of these compounds to electrophilic species proved exceptionally difficult and resulted in very low yields or recovered starting material only. A summary of the current results utilizing N-tosyl indole-3-methanol will be presented as well as efforts using N-Boc indole-3-methanol.
Reaction Of Alpine-Borane With Aldehydes: Reactivity Rate Assessment By Observation Of The Disappearance Of The Carbonyl N - Pi* Peak By Uv-Visible Spectroscopy, Layla Bland, Michael J. Panigot
Reaction Of Alpine-Borane With Aldehydes: Reactivity Rate Assessment By Observation Of The Disappearance Of The Carbonyl N - Pi* Peak By Uv-Visible Spectroscopy, Layla Bland, Michael J. Panigot
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Due to an unexpectedly difficult reduction of indole-3-carbaldehyde and of isobutyraldehyde using the chiral reducing agent Alpine-Borane, the reactivity of several aliphatic, aromatic, and unsaturated aldehydes was investigated. This was done in order to determine whether there was a relationship between aldehyde structure and reduction rate. It was found that aliphatic aldehydes and aromatic aldehydes with no strongly electron-donating groups on the arene ring reduced faster than unsaturated aldehydes.

Study Of The Amplitude Of Pressure And Thrust Oscillations In A Lab-Scale Hybrid Rocket, Ann Wright, Lawrence Dunn, Brian Alford, Justin Patton, M. Keith Hudson
Journal of the Arkansas Academy of Science
Hybrid rockets are being studied as a potential replacement for the solid rocket boosters on the NASA space shuttle. One physical characteristic of hybrid rockets that must be understood and overcome is potentially severe pressure oscillations during combustion. Pressure oscillations inside the rocket combustion chamber lead to oscillations in the thrust of the rocket. These oscillations are damaging to potential human passengers and cargo and must be minimized. Current theories surmise that the oscillations are caused by combustion chamber geometry, oxygen feed line parameters, and/or fuel combustion characteristics. This study focuses on the role of the fuel characteristics in pressure …
