  2. Acetoxy group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetoxy_group

    The structure of the acetoxy group blue. In organic chemistry, the acetoxy group (abbr. AcO or OAc; IUPAC name: acetyloxy [1]), is a functional group with the formula −OCOCH 3 and the structure −O−C(=O)−CH 3. As the -oxy suffix implies, it differs from the acetyl group (−C(=O)−CH 3) by the presence of an additional oxygen atom.

  3. Protecting group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protecting_group

    The technique was introduced in the field of peptide synthesis by Robert Bruce Merrifield in 1977. [111] For peptide synthesis via automated machine, the orthogonality of the Fmoc group (basic cleavage), the tert‑butyl group (acidic cleavage) and diverse protecting groups for functional groups on the amino acid side-chains are used. [112]

  4. Acetylation - Wikipedia

    Salicylic acid is acetylated to form aspirin. In chemistry, acetylation is an organic esterification reaction with acetic acid.It introduces an acetyl group into a chemical compound.

  5. Oxymercuration reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxymercuration_reaction

    The reaction follows Markovnikov's rule (the hydroxy group will always be added to the more substituted carbon). The oxymercuration part of the reaction involves anti addition of OH group but the demercuration part of the reaction involves free radical mechanism and is not stereospecific, i.e. H and OH may be syn or anti to each other. [2] [3] [4]

  6. Acetyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl_group

    In IUPAC nomenclature, an acetyl group is called an ethanoyl group. An acetyl group contains a methyl group ( −CH 3 ) that is single-bonded to a carbonyl ( C=O ), making it an acyl group . The carbonyl center of an acyl radical has one non-bonded electron with which it forms a chemical bond to the remainder (denoted with the letter R ) of the ...

  7. Demethylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demethylation

    Demethylation is the chemical process resulting in the removal of a methyl group (CH 3) from a molecule. [1] [2] A common way of demethylation is the replacement of a methyl group by a hydrogen atom, resulting in a net loss of one carbon and two hydrogen atoms. The counterpart of demethylation is methylation.

    According to the Benozzo Gozzoli Museum, Castelfiorentino, Italy, the "Strappo" technique is the least invasive method of wall painting removal because unlike stacco a massello or stacco, it "involves removal of only the topmost layer of plaster, which has absorbed the pigment" as described in the video, The Strappo Technique produced by the ...

  9. Immunoadsorption - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Immunoadsorption

    Immunoadsorption was developed in the 1990s as a method of extracorporeal removal of molecules from the blood, in particular molecules of the immune system. Different number of devices/columns exist on the market, each with a different active component to which the molecule of interest attaches, allowing for selectivity in the molecules of ...
