Functional groups .In organic chemistry, functional groups are specific groups of atoms within molecules that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of those molecules. The same functional group will undergo the same or similar chemical reaction(s) regardless of the size of the ...
A functional group is a specific group of atoms that helps determine the chemistry and reactivity of the overall molecule. When classifying functional groups, we look at both the specific atoms present, as well as the manner in which they are connected to each other. While there are an overwh...

For example, depending on how functional groups are placed, the mechanisms of accumulation, and the persistence and fate of organic compounds in the soil are determined. The hydroxyl functional groups (shown in Table 6.2) that exist in water consist of a hydrogen atom and an oxygen atom bonded...
In subject area: Chemical Engineering A telechelic polymer (also called an end-functionalized polymer or terminal reactive polymer) is a class of reactive polymer possessing reactive functional groups at the chain ends [60]. From: Advanced and Emerging Polybenzoxazine Science and Technology, 2017 ...
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) with different functional groups have wide applications, while the understanding of functionalization influences remains insufficient. Previous researches focused on the static changes in electronic structure or chemical environment, while it is unclear in the aspect of dynamic...
In order to form an amide from this species, the carboxylate oxygen (O– ) must somehow depart. This is not an easy thing to do, as the conjugate base of O– is the double anion O2– . In any list of leaving groups, O2– would rank somewhere between, “shitty” and “f&cking awf...
Hi, all. I'm classifying a database of organic substances by the functional groups within each substance -- this is done programmatically using SMARTS strings that I design. I'm currently trying to write a "definitive" list of functional groups containing one or more nitrogen atoms. ...
Davide Moscatelli, in Computational Quantum Chemistry, 2019 3.2.10 Functional Monomers Functional monomers are those showing particularly reactive side-chain groups that can be used in order to synthesize more complex vinyl compounds, such as macromonomers; or to improve the functionality of preformed ...
