Ecotoxicity studies of glycerol ethers in Vibrio fischeri: checking the environmental impact of glycerol-derived solvents

The toxicities of a series of glycerol mono-, di-, and trialkyl ethers against Vibrio fischeri bacteria have been determined. A systematic study has been carried out and the possible structure-toxicity relationships have been discussed using different QSAR models. Inhibition of bioluminescence after 30 minutes of exposure shows relatively low toxicity of many of the glycerol derived chemicals studied. Results indicate that, as a general rule, the ecotoxicity increases with the length and number of substituents. However, if the size of the molecule increases, an extra substituent at position 2 makes the toxicity lower than that of the corresponding analogues.

Silica sulfuric acid; an efficient and reusable catalyst for regioselective ring opening of epoxides by alcohols and water

The nucleophilic ring opening reactions of epoxides by aliphatic alcohols and water are achieved efficiently in the presence of catalytic amounts of silica sulfuric acid with high degree of regioselectivity. The catalyst is reusable and can be applied several times without any decrease in the yield of reactions.

Iron perchlorate on silica gel as multi-purpose reagent for catalysis of closure and rupture of carbon-oxygen bond in epoxides, alcohols, and esters

Aliphatic alcohols and water in the presence of catalytic amounts of Fe3+ ion introduced as iron(III) perchlorate on silica gel carrier perform efficient regiospecific opening of an epoxy ring. Carbon acids esterification with various type alcohols was carried out using the system Fe(ClO4)3-silica gel in dichloromethane under conditions excluding solvolysis. Acetylation and formylation of alcohols was performed by efficient transesterification with ethyl acetate and ethyl formate.
