  2. Sodium dichromate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_dichromate

    Sodium dichromate is the inorganic compound with the formula Na 2 Cr 2 O 7.However, the salt is usually handled as its dihydrate Na 2 Cr 2 O 7 ·2H 2 O.Virtually all chromium ore is processed via conversion to sodium dichromate and virtually all compounds and materials based on chromium are prepared from this salt.

    Treatment with periodic acid (dioxane) and piperidine acetate (benzene) gave aldehyde 24 through diol 22 (oxidation) and dialdehyde 23 (aldol condensation). Sodium dichromate oxidation gave carboxylic acid 25, Diazomethane treatment gave methyl ester 26 and sodium borohydride the allyl alcohol 27.

  4. Predominance diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Predominance_diagram

    Chromate and dichromate have equal concentrations. Setting [CrO 2− 4] equal to [Cr 2 O 2− 7] in Eq. 3 gives [CrO 2− 4] = ⁠ 1 / β 2 [H +] 2 ⁠. The predominance diagram is interpreted as follows. The chromate ion is the predominant species in the region to the right of the green and blue lines. Above pH ~6.75 it is always the ...

  5. Chromate and dichromate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromate_and_dichromate

    Predominance diagram for chromate. In aqueous solution, chromate and dichromate anions exist in a chemical equilibrium.. 2 CrO 2− 4 + 2 H + ⇌ Cr 2 O 2− 7 + H 2 O. The predominance diagram shows that the position of the equilibrium depends on both pH and the analytical concentration of chromium.

  6. Oxidation with chromium(VI) complexes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_with_chromium(VI...

    Enones can be synthesized from tertiary allylic alcohols through the action of a variety of chromium(VI)-amine reagents, in a reaction known as the Babler oxidation. The reaction is driven by the formation of a more substituted double bond. (E)-Enones form in greater amounts than (Z) isomers because of chromium-mediated geometric isomerization ...

  7. Alcohol oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_oxidation

    Alcohol oxidation is a collection of oxidation reactions in organic chemistry that convert alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters. The reaction mainly applies to primary and secondary alcohols. Secondary alcohols form ketones, while primary alcohols form aldehydes or carboxylic acids. [1] A variety of oxidants can be used.

  8. Chemical decomposition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_decomposition

    In the breakdown of a compound into its constituent parts, the generalized reaction for chemical decomposition is: AB → A + B (AB represents the reactant that begins the reaction, and A and B represent the products of the reaction) An example is the electrolysis of water to the gases hydrogen and oxygen: 2 H 2 O(l) → 2 H 2 (g) + O 2 (g)

  9. Wohl degradation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wohl_degradation

    In this reaction step the oxime is converted into the nitrile with simultaneous conversion of all the alcohol groups to acetate groups. In the final step sodium methoxide in methanol is added, leading to removal of all the acetate groups and ejection of the nitrile group and collapse of the second carbon from a tetrahedral structure to an aldehyde.
