  2. Trichloroethylene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trichloroethylene

    Trichloroethylene (TCE) is a halocarbon with the formula C 2 HCl 3, commonly used as an industrial metal degreasing solvent. It is a clear, colourless, non-flammable, volatile liquid with a chloroform-like pleasant mild smell [3] and sweet taste. [9] Its IUPAC name is trichloroethene. Trichloroethylene has been sold under a variety of trade names.

    “Speaking of Synthesis means approaching the guiding principle of Assagiolian psychology, both the means and the goal of the entire psychosynthetic pathway. . . Synthesis is a process that involves the creation of a relationship between two or more elements through a third entity, in order to create a new reality. [5]

  4. 2,2,2-Trichloroethanol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,2,2-Trichloroethanol

    2,2,2-Trichloroethanol is the chemical compound with formula Cl 3 C−CH 2 OH.Its molecule can be described as that of ethanol, with the three hydrogen atoms at position 2 (the methyl group) replaced by chlorine atoms.

  5. Halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogenation

    The reaction typically involves free radical pathways. The regiochemistry of the halogenation of alkanes is largely determined by the relative weakness of the C–H bonds. This trend is reflected by the faster reaction at tertiary and secondary positions. Free radical chlorination is used for the industrial production of some solvents: [2]

  6. Organochlorine chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organochlorine_chemistry

    For example, the industrial production of chloroethane proceeds by the reaction of ethylene with HCl: [citation needed] H 2 C=CH 2 + HCl → CH 3 CH 2 Cl. In oxychlorination, hydrogen chloride instead of the more expensive chlorine is used for the same purpose: CH 2 =CH 2 + 2 HCl + 1 ⁄ 2 O 2 → ClCH 2 CH 2 Cl + H 2 O.

  7. Long-term potentiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Long-term_potentiation

    Long-term potentiation (LTP) is a persistent increase in synaptic strength following high-frequency stimulation of a chemical synapse.Studies of LTP are often carried out in slices of the hippocampus, an important organ for learning and memory.

  8. Reductive dechlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reductive_dechlorination

    Dechlorination is a well-researched reaction in organic synthesis, although it is not often used.Usually stoichiometric amounts of dechlorinating agent are required. In one classic application, the Ullmann reaction, chloroarenes are coupled to biphenyl]]s.

  9. Biosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biosynthesis

    A particular biosynthetic pathway may be located within a single cellular organelle (e.g., mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis pathways), while others involve enzymes that are located across an array of cellular organelles and structures (e.g., the biosynthesis of glycosylated cell surface proteins).
