Thermal Study on Adducts of Urea with n-Alkanes and n-l-Alkanols [PDF]
Crystalline adducts of urea with n-alkanes (C(8)~C(20)) and n-l-alkanols (C(12)~C(18)) were prepared. From thermal analysis and X-ray diffraction study on the adducts, we found that the composition of adducts and the heat of decomposition can be obtained

Transient and intermediate carbocations in ruthenium tetroxide oxidation of saturated rings
The ruthenium tetroxide-mediated oxidation of cyclopentane, tetrahydrofuran, tetrahydrothiophene and N-substituted pyrrolidines has been studied computationally by DFT and topological (analysis of the electron localization function, ELF) methods.

Changes in aliphatic hydrocarbon tracer composition during the digestive process of the marine worm Nereis virens. Preliminary results [PDF]
In the laboratory, marine worms were fed with a mixture of algae and several aliphatic hydrocarbons for 15 days. By comparing hydrocarbons in food and in faeces, it appeared that the worm's digestive process led to changes in the distribution of the n ...

Electrochemical detection of simple alkanes by utilizing a solid-state zirconia-based gas sensor
Solid-state gas sensors composed of complex oxide electrolytes offer great potential for analyzing various atmospheres at high temperatures. While relatively simple gas mixtures (H2O+N2, O2+N2) have been successfully studied by means of ZrO2-based ...

H4-Alkanes: A new class of hydrogen storage material?
The methane-based material (H$_2$)$_4$CH$_4$, also called H4M for short, is in essence a methane molecule with 4 physisorbed H$_2$ molecules. While H4M has exceptionally high hydrogen storage densities when it forms a molecular solid, unfortunately, this

Factors affecting the extent of branching in fischertropsch synthesis products with iron-based catalysts [PDF]
Branched products are mainly formed during secondary isomerization reactions, and not in the main synthesis reaction itself. The extent of branching is a function of the catalyst formulation. High acidity and a low hydrogenation strength of the catalyst (
