  3. Acid strength - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_strength

    For example, acetic acid is a weak acid which has a = 1.75 x 10 −5. Its conjugate base is the acetate ion with K b = 10 −14 / K a = 5.7 x 10 −10 (from the relationship K a × K b = 10 −14 ), which certainly does not correspond to a strong base.

  4. Hydroxyl value - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroxyl_value

    The conversion between hydroxyl value and other hydroxyl content measurements is obtained by multiplying the hydroxyl value by the factor 17/560. [2] The chemical substance may be a fat, oil, natural or synthetic ester, or other polyol. [3] ASTM D 1957 [4] and ASTM E222-10 [5] describe several versions of this method of determining hydroxyl value.

  5. Malonic ester synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malonic_ester_synthesis

    On heating, the di-ester undergoes thermal decarboxylation, yielding an acetic acid substituted by the appropriate R group. [1] Thus, the malonic ester can be thought of being equivalent to the − CH 2 COOH synthon. The esters chosen are usually the same as the base used, i.e. ethyl esters with sodium ethoxide.

    acetyl chloride SOCl 2 acetic acid (i) Li[AlH 4], ether (ii) H 3 O + ethanol Two typical organic reactions of acetic acid Acetic acid undergoes the typical chemical reactions of a carboxylic acid. Upon treatment with a standard base, it converts to metal acetate and water. With strong bases (e.g., organolithium reagents), it can be doubly deprotonated to give LiCH 2 COOLi. Reduction of acetic ...

    Acrolein and malonic acid react in pyridine to give trans-2,4-pentadienoic acid with the loss of carbon dioxide. The Doebner modification of the Knoevenagel condensation entails the use of pyridine as a solvent with at least one of the withdrawing groups on the nucleophile is a carboxylic acid , for example, with malonic acid .

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetoxy_group

    Acetyl halide, such as acetyl chloride in the presence of a base like triethylamine [2] Activated ester form of acetic acid, such as a N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, although this is not advisable due to higher costs and difficulties. [3] Acetic anhydride in the presence of base with a catalyst such as pyridine with a bit of DMAP added. [4]
