Full textTritium is the radioactive isotope of hydrogen and can thus integrate the organic molecules of a living organism following the water cycle and form the organically bound tritium fraction (OBT). The existence of two forms of OBT is commonly accepted: an exchangeable fraction (E-OBT) and a non-exchangeable fraction (NE-OBT). However, a scientific consensus to date is lacking to describe the exact distribution of these two forms in an organic molecule, which generates controversies and a lack of clarity on the behavior of tritium in the environment. Therefore, this study consists first of all in establishing and understanding the involvement of specific molecular structures of the usual biomolecules of plant biomass on the speciation of OBT in environmental matrices. An overview is obtained on the exchange capacities of the hydrogen atom found in a large panel of environmental matrices and their major constituent. A major interest is focused on the cellulose molecule with its semi-crystalline structure and the storage capacities of tritium in soils are explored through a study of the exchange and deprotonation capacities of hydrogen atoms in matter rich in humic substances. Secondly, a comparative study is proposed between two isotopic exchange methods for the analysis of the NE-OBT fraction and their reliability is evaluated within the environmental monitoring scope, but also for the apprehension of the distribution of OBT in environmental matrices

Full textThe development of new efficient, fast and easy-to-handle methods to label drug compounds with deuterium or tritium in one single step is of great importance in academia and industry. These labelled compounds are for example an essential part in drug discovery and help to speed up the generation of the safety profile of a drug candidate. Classical isotope labeling mainly relies on the transformation of precursors which require multistep synthesis, a drawback which may be overcome by late-stage functionalization. We reported the first efficient catalytic protocol for ortho-selective iridium(I)-catalysed Hydrogen Isotope Exchange (HIE) reactions of pharmacologically important phenylacetic acid esters and amides with D2 or T2 under very mild reaction conditions (room temperature). We have demonstrated that by applying the optimized combination of different iridium catalysts and reaction temperatures (-60 to 130°C), different HIE reaction outcomes in selectivity and reactivity can be achieved. Together with DFT calculations, we have postulated a guideline for directing group strength of several functional groups, to predict the outcome of HIE reactions in the competition situation of complex molecules. Starting from a complex tritium labelling of the maytansine DM4 drug, the HIE reaction on a series of common linker side chains of antibody-drug-conjugates proceeded with high chemical yields, high regioselectivity and with deuterium incorporations up to 99%. The scope of the method was further extended to amino acids, di- and tripeptides, with deuterium incorporation up 95%D in the glycine moiety. Finally, in collaboration with CEA-Saclay and CNRS, air-stable and easy-to-handle iridium NHC-ligated nanoparticles were developed for the first time and used in HIE reactions of complex anilines. The usefulness of the methods developed all along the PhD was demonstrated by tritiation of DM4, Camylofine, Benalaxyl and the Volixibat pharmacophore

Full textThe δD values of the n-alkanes also reflect their multiple source inputs. For example, a saw-toothed profile of n-alkane δD values in Australian torbanites is attributed to a dual-source system: a predominant B. braunii input, with a minor terrestrial plant input to odd-carbon-numbered n-alkanes in the range n-C20 [subscript] to n-C29 [subscript]. The δD values of n-alkanes and isoprenoids (pristane and phytane) differ significantly in two Permian torbanites from Australia, thought to be reflective of the offset between the δD values of their precursors in extant organisms. The torbanite data indicate that a biological δD signal has been preserved for at least 260–280 million years, extending the utility of δD values for palaeoclimate studies. To elucidate the effect of sedimentary processes on the δD values of petroleum hydrocarbons, three sedimentary sequences have been studied. These comprise one from the Perth Basin (Western Australia) and two from the Vulcan Sub-basin (northern Australia) covering a wide range of maturities, i.e. 0.53–1.6% vitrinite reflectance (Ro). The δD values of n-alkanes extracted from immature-early mature sediments (marine shales/siltstones and mudstones) are consistent with that expected of marine-derived n-alkyl lipids. The hydrocarbons become enriched in D with increasing maturity. The large (ca. 115%) biologically-derived offset between the δD values of n-alkanes and acyclic isoprenoids from immature sediments gradually decreases with increasing maturity, as the isoprenoids become enriched in D more rapidly than the n-alkanes. The D-enrichment in isoprenoids correlates strongly with Ro and traditional molecular maturity parameters.
This suggests that H/D exchange during maturation occurs via a mechanism involving carbocation-like intermediates, which proceeds more rapidly with compounds containing tertiary carbon centres. Significant epimerisation of pristane and phytane coincides with their D-enrichment, suggesting that hydrogen exchange occurs at their tertiary carbons. A mechanism is proposed which can account for both H/D exchange and the epimerisation of pristane and phytane in the sedimentary environment. Pristane and phytane extracted from a post-mature sediment from the Paqualin-1 sequence are significantly enriched in D (ca. 40%) relative to the n-alkanes, indicating that D-enrichment persists at very high maturity, and is more pronounced for the regular isoprenoids than the n-alkanes. This supports the notion that H/D exchange causes the observed shift in δD values, rather than free-radical hydrogen transfer. The differences between the δD values of pristane and phytane show opposite trends in the Perth Basin and Vulcan Sub-basin sediments. In the Perth Basin, phytane is enriched in D relative to pristane, likely due to a dominant algal source. In the Vulcan Sub-basin, pristane is enriched in D relative to phytane, and thus is attributed to a lower relative input of algal organic matter. The variance of the δD values of pristane and phytane is generally consistent throughout the maturity range and provides evidence that pristane and phytane exchange hydrogen at similar rates. δD analysis of crude oils and condensates reservoired in the Perth Basin and Vulcan Sub-basin has been carried out to evaluate potential applications in oil-source correlation.
The n-alkanes from crude oils and condensates are often more enriched in D than n-alkanes extracted from their supposed source rocks, and the oils also show relatively small differences between the δD values of n-alkanes and isoprenoids. These results suggest significant H/D exchange has occurred, implying that the liquids were generated from mature source rocks. A Perth Basin crude oil (Gage Roads-1) thought to be derived from a lacustrine/terrestrial source contains hydrocarbons that are significantly depleted in D relative to Perth Basin oils derived from a marine source, attributed to variability in the isotopic composition of marine and terrestrial source waters. δD values of n-alkanes from Vulcan Sub-basin crude oils and condensates are largely consistent with their prior classification into two groups: Group A, having a marine source affinity; and Group B, having a terrigenous source affinity. Some oils and condensates are suggested to be mixtures of Group A and Group B hydrocarbons, or Group A hydrocarbons and other as yet unknown sources. An exception is a former Group A oil (Tenacious-1) containing n-alkanes that are enriched in D relative to those from other Group A oils and condensates, attributed to mixing with another source of more mature hydrocarbons. The n-alkane δD profile appears to be indicative of source and sedimentary processes. One Perth Basin crude oil (Dongara-14) contains lower-molecular-weight n-alkanes that are depleted in D relative to higher-molecular-weight n-alkanes, attributed to a mixed marine/terrestrial source.
Group A crude oils and condensates from the Vulcan Sub-basin display a ‘bowl-shaped’ profile of n-alkane δD values. An upward inflection in the n-alkane δD profile from n-C11 [subscript] to n-C15 [subscript] is suggested to represent the addition of D-enriched lower-molecular-weight n-alkanes from a more mature wet gas/condensate to an initial charge of lower maturity oil. Ultimately, this project has demonstrated that the δD values of individual petroleum hydrocarbons can be used to elucidate the nature of source organic matter and depositional environments. The preservation potential of lipid δD values is greater than previously thought, although it is clear that H/D exchange accompanying maturation can have a significant effect on the δD values of certain hydrocarbons. Thus, great care must be taken when interpreting δD values of individual hydrocarbons, particularly those derived from sediments of high thermal maturity.

Full textThis work aims at developing a new proxy of past hydrological conditions based on the hydrogen isotopic composition (δD) of a sedimentary biomarker that is specific for broomcorn millet (Panicum miliaceum), miliacin. Analysing the spatio-temporal relevancy of this proxy reveals that miliacin δD values of plants cultivated in the field, although dispersed, follow a Gaussian law. Soil miliacin δD values are the same as those found for plants grown the year before. Interannual variations in plant miliacin δD values roughly parallel those of precipitation δD values, slight differences being attributed to differences in relative humidity. The comparison of miliacin δD values in sediments deposited in two distinct settings at the same time in Lake le Bourget attests that this proxy homogeneously integrates climatic conditions over the whole catchment. Cultivation of millet plants in climatic chambers allowed demonstrating that, although source water δD is the principal controlling miliacin δD values, this later is closely correlated to leaf water δD. Slight differences in net biosynthetic fractionation between n-alcanes and miliacin under two relative humidity levels imply that the combined analysis of sedimentary biomarkers produced through distinct biosynthetic pathways could help discriminating between source water δD and relative humidity in paleoenvironmental studies

Full textHydrogen isotopes labelled compounds possess a broad range of application in the early pre-clinical phases of drug development process. For instance, deuterated compounds are applied as internal standard in quantitative LC-MS techniques while tritiated molecules are often the preferred radioactive tracers for the study of molecular absorption, distribution, metabolism and excretion (ADME). After a brief introduction, a first chapter will discuss the development of a mild and selective method to perform late stage labelling of variously functionalized nucleobases and drug analogues catalyzed by ruthenium nanoparticles. By changing the ligand which stabilizes the nanocatalyst, we achieved challenging isotopic exchanges such as tritiations of pharmaceuticals using subatmospheric pressure of tritium gas and deuteration of sensible oligonucleotides. The next chapter will describe the modification of commercially available ruthenium nanocatalysts via the coordination of N-Heterocyclic carbenes (NHCs). The modification granted enhanced regio and chemoselectivity for the deuteration of aliphatic alcohols. Some of the modified ruthenium catalysts allowed the hydrogen/deuterium exchange on easily reducible compounds which were not obtainable using the unmodified commercial catalyst. The final chapter will discuss the synthesis and the evaluation of the catalytic activity of iridium nanoparticles. The latter, showed an interesting reactivity for the labelling of challenging substrates. In some of the investigated compounds, IrNps were able to introduce deuterium with unusual regioselectivities compared to already described hydrogen isotope exchange reactions

Full textDuring ITER operation, important flux of Hydrogen Isotopes (HIs) constituting the fuel interact with the plasma facing components (PFC) of the machine. In the case of tungsten (W) making the divertor which is the most exposed area to the plasma wall interaction, the incident flux can be implanted and diffuse inside the bulk material inducing a trapping of the fuel. To safety issue, the tritium inventory retained in ITER’s PFC is limited. In addition, the outgassing of the fuel during plasma operation can impact the edge plasma control.The aim of this PhD project is first to determined relevant trapping parameters of the fuel in W (detrapping energies/temperatures and trap concentrations) by modelling experimental results. The simulations of experimental results shows that under specific condition, the HI implantation can induce the formation of mono-vacancies containing impurities. In addition to this induced trap, 2 intrinsic traps are present in W. This 3 traps retain HIs up to 700 K. Finally, it has been shown that the damaged W by heavy ions or neutrons contains dislocations, dislocation loops and cavities that can trap HIs up to 1000 K.After determining the fuel retention properties of W, the HIs retention during ITER operation is estimated. During this operation, the PFC temperature reaches around 1000 K so the simulations show that the damaged W retains much more HIs than the undamaged W

Full textIn the northeast United States, arsenic (As) contamination in groundwater is frequently associated with historical landfill leachate plumes. Based on the history of Shepley's Hill Landfill (SHL) in Devens, MA, solid waste disposal activities spanned nearly a century of landfilling with little or no documentation of when or what waste material was disposed. Past geochemical investigations proved the presence of high levels of As in groundwaters within and around the SHL region. A total of 114 samples were collected from the SHL region and analyzed for their hydrogeochemistry and isotopic signature. Since the isotopic ratios of äD and ä18O can potentially be influenced by the mobilization process of As, this study attempts to identify any correlations between the stable isotopic ratios and the hydrogeochemistry of SHL waters. The results of the groundwater hydrogeochemical analysis show multiple relationships between metal concentrations and As concentration levels, typical of groundwater undergoing redox reactions. The result of the stable isotope analysis show significant fractionation of stable isotope ratios away from the meteoric water line. However, the role of strong redox gradients and various redox ladder reactions involving water did not produce a significant correlation with the isotopic fractionations present within different zones of the landfill. In most cases, the fractionations stand independent of the increase/decrease in As concentration and can be attributed to either unrelated chemical reactions within groundwater or evaporation

Full textThe adsorption of hydrogen and deuterium (single gases and mixtures) was studied on a series of zeolites with varied parameters (Si/Al ratio, nature of the charge-compensating cation, pore geometry and diameter of pore aperture). Thermodynamic adsorption selectivities towards deuterium with respect to hydrogen were measured in a large pressure range (0.1 – 1000 hPa) and for several temperatures (45 – 100 K). The adsorption selectivity was assessed using direct coadsorption measurements performed by manometry coupled with mass spectrometry. For all studied zeolites and experimental conditions, the coadsorption process is selective towards deuterium, in agreement with the literature. However, the adsorption selectivity depends on the loading, the sorbent’s properties and the temperature. We have found that the coadsorption kinetics strongly influences the adsorption selectivity, especially at high loading. This work gives the guidelines for the choice of the formulation of materials and the optimal operating conditions for having an efficient separation of hydrogen isotopes using zeolite-based adsorbents

Full textAt the heart of Pressurized Water Reactors, the uranium oxide fuel leads isolated from the primary circuit by zirconium alloys cladding. Under normal operating conditions, the interaction between these claddings and the primary water results in the formation of an oxide scale and the hydrogen absorption in the alloy. During operation in a reactor and during the transport of used nuclear fuels, the desorption of this hydrogen and the tritium resulting from the ternary fission from the fuel rods is a safety concern. It is imperative to estimate the amount of tritium prone to be released from the fuel assemblies into the primary water and the quantities of hydrogen desorbed under vacuum or neutral gas for the transport issue. Beyond this quantitative aspect, understanding the permeation mechanism of hydrogen and its isotopes in zirconium alloy claddings is necessary if we want to control releases and more generally safety. The tritium permeation through the oxidized fuel cladding can be decomposed into 9 steps: 1. Tritium adsorption on the oxide formed on the inner face; 2. Passing from surface sites to subsurface sites as absorbed species; 3. Tritium diffusion through the oxide towards the oxide/metal interface; 4. Integration into the metal; 5.Tritium diffusion through the metal; 6. Integration into the oxide lattice; 7. Tritium diffusion through the oxide towards the subsurface; 8. Passing from subsurface sites to surface sites as adsorbed species; 9. Recombination and desorption.This study is aimed at identifying, among these 9 steps, the kinetically limiting step of the hydrogen permeation process in Zircaloy-4 and M5Framatome alloys, quantifying the associated kinetic constants and developing a numerical model that can predict hydrogen desorption fluxes. Due to the complexity of the tritium permeation process through an oxidized fuel cladding, a simplified system without an oxide layer was initially studied. A study on the hydrogen desorption process was carried out by thermodesorption in temperature ramp and in isotherm, in order to model by finite elements with the Cast3M tool the desorption kinetics and to quantify the associated kinetic constant by coupling with the URANIE optimization tool. The desorption flux was found to be proportional to the square of the hydrogen concentration with a desorption constant whose activation energy is equal to 290 ± 10 kJ/mol. A similar study on M5Framatome revealed during a temperature ramp that hydrogen desorption from niobium-rich precipitates appears to be controlled by their dissolution. The development of a deuterium permeation device operating between 623 and 773 K has demonstrated that the rate-limiting step of the hydrogen permeation is the surface recombination for Zircaloy-4. These permeation experiments have highlighted the important role of surface state, because the application by the device of stress and strain induces a desorption flux increase. Oxidation tests were then carried out under various atmospheres. During a temperature ramp desorption experiment, the oxide dissolution into the metal appears to control the kinetics of hydrogen desorption. The development of numerical and analytical models made it possible to demonstrate in the case of a negligible zirconia dissolution, a desorption kinetics limited by a mixed regime of hydrogen diffusion through the oxide and surface recombination and to quantify the desorption constant and diffusion coefficient in zirconia. From the thesis results, an estimate of the tritium released quantity under vacuum was established

Paleoclimate records with sufficient length and temporal resolution to study the occurrence and causal mechanisms of abrupt climate change are exceedingly rare. Rapidly deposited ocean sediments provide the best archive for studying these events through geologic time, but such sites in the open ocean are limited to sediment drift deposits such as the Bermuda Rise in the northwest Atlantic. Using multiple climate proxies in a single core is becoming more common in high-resolution paleoclimate investigations, but a major potential concern for this approach arises from the possibility that the fine fraction of sediment (< 63 [micro]m), and the climate proxies within it, may represent conditions far from the deposition site. We hypothesize that hydrogen isotope ratios of alkenones, a class of lipids from phytoplankton, may provide insight into the source of fine fraction sediment. Because of their restricted sources, broad geographic distribution, and excellent preservation properties, alkenones are of particular interest in the emerging field of' compound-specific hydrogen isotopic analysis, and the sedimentary abundances, extents of unsaturations, and isotopic compositions of alkenones provide quantitative and near-continuous records. We isolated alkenones from cultured unicellular algae (haptophyte Emiliania huxleyi), surface ocean particulate material, and open ocean sediments to determine the extent and variability of hydrogen isotopic fractionation in the di-, tri-, and tetraunsaturated C₃₇ compounds. We then compared the [delta]D of the alkenones in surface sediments between the Bermuda Rise and the Scotian Margin above which a large ([approximately]20%) [delta]D gradient exists. We determined the fractionation between alkenones
(cont.) from suspended particulate samples and the water in which the phytoplanton lived, and examined the variability of alkenone 6D during key climate transitions at the Bermuda Rise.

Full textConstraining the concentration and isotopic composition of hydrogen in Earth's mantle brings crucial insights on the global water cycle and the nature of mantle heterogeneities. For this purpose, glassy rims of basalts are the best samples. In this study, 170 samples from 4 oceanic ridges and 2 hotspots were analysed for water content and ô D. During this work, we showed that using platinum crucibles to extract the volatiles was the cause of an analytical bias in earlier data. The use of silicate tubes was thus prefered. δ D re-measured on samples previously analyzed using platinum crucibles are, on average, 15%o higher. The δ D and the H2O/Ce ratio are hétérogeneous, both between areas and locally, and caracterize the sources. The source of N-MORB contains 175+/-70 ppm of water and has a δ D of -61+/-6%o. MORB from the Altantic ocean are richer in water (-250 ppm in the source) and D ( δ D—57%o), than those from thé South-East Indian (H2O~140 ppm and δ DS\simS-63%o), illustrating different mixing processes, also seen through the Pb/Ce ratios. The study of the MORB from the South-West Indian ridge showed that δ D and H2O/Ce are sensitive to metasomatism. The concentrations of water in E-MORB and OIB sources are higher and more variable (from 250 to 700 ppm). The ô D of water- and incompatible elements-enriched sources range from -70 to -40%o, showing as much variations as depleted sources. Confrontation with the isotopic compositions of Ne, Pb, Sr and Nd shows that the resevoir containing the primitive rare gases cannot be water-rich, and is thus different from the FOZO. Therefore, efficient recycling of water with no modification of its isotopic composition in hydrogen at subdcution zone can occur at some subduction zones
