Draw the Lewis structure of methyl mercaptan. Thiol: An alcohol is a functional group in organic chemistry defined by the generic formulaROH, where "R" is a carbon-containing group. A thiol is a related functional group in which the oxygen atom is replaced by a sulfur atom, resulting in ...
The capability of ordinary surfactants in solubilizing hydrophobic compounds can come to a limit, if the extension of a contaminant is too large. An attractive goal is the development of surfactants which can actively reduce the size of dirt. Because str
The charge on a nucleophilic atom has a very large effect on its nucleophilicity. This is an idea that makes intuitive sense: a hydroxide ion is much more nucleophilic (and basic) than a water molecule, because the negatively charged oxygen on the hydroxide ion carries greater electron density ...
X-ray structure of TBD·HCl·H2O provides further evidence to the bifunctionality of the guanidinium ion [8]. In a very recent kinetic study of three different types of bicyclic guanidine-catalyzed reactions, the bifunctionality of the guanidine catalyst is further established [9]. Our ...
Being different from the formation of metal-OH bond that was the decisive factor for O/S ER [10,35] in metal-catalyzed copolymerization system, herein, the (Ethyl)3B-OR structure resulted from the fast chain transfer to PEG impeded the generation of possible (Ethyl)3B-OH bond. Note that...
