Explain why polar protic solvents (like butanol) solvate anions (like chloride) better than polar aportic solvents (like N, N-dimethylformamide, DMF) do. What are two most important characteristics of good recrystallization solvent for a given compound? What is used to separate two or more liqui...
Polar and protic solvents are the ones of choice for this kind of reaction. The protic character of the solvent aids in the solvation of the leaving group while the polar nature of the solvent aids in the stabilization of ionic intermediates. Water and alcohols are two frequent solvents in SN...
Due to this protonH+1release, acetic acid has an acidic character. Acetic acid is a weak monoprotic acid. It has a pK value of 4.76 in anaqueous solution. AcetateCH3COO−1is the conjugate base. For polar and non-polar solvents such as acid, chloroform, and hexane, it is miscible. ...
Acetic acid is a versatile acidic solvent. As a solvent, acetic acid is a hydrophilic protic solvent, much like water or ethanol. Acetic acid dissolves both polar and nonpolar compounds and is miscible in both polar (water) and nonpolar (hexane, chloroform) solvents. However, acetic acid is ...
the molecules form chains of molecules via hydrogen bonding. However, in the vapor phase of this compound, it forms dimers (two molecules connected to each other via hydrogen bonds). Since liquid glacial acetic acid is apolar protic solvent, it is miscible with many polar and nonpolar solvents...
Such monomer salts can only form in polar protic environments, but not in solvents conventionally used for PI synthesis, i.e., polar aprotic media [75]. Monomer salts have important implications for hydrothermal polymerization (HTP): In the linear PI case, i.e., the polycondensation of an ...
