  2. Electrophilic aromatic substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophilic_aromatic...

    The nitration of benzene is achieved via the action of the nitronium ion as the electrophile. The sulfonation with fuming sulfuric acid gives benzenesulfonic acid. Aromatic halogenation with bromine, chlorine, or iodine gives the corresponding aryl halides. This reaction is typically catalyzed by the corresponding iron or aluminum trihalide.

    This can also explain why phosphorus in phosphanes can't donate electron density to carbon through induction (i.e. +I effect) although it is less electronegative than carbon (2.19 vs 2.55, see electronegativity list) and why hydroiodic acid (pKa = -10) being much more acidic than hydrofluoric acid (pKa = 3).

  4. Isostere - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isostere

    The isostere concept was formulated by Irving Langmuir in 1919, [3] and later modified by Grimm. Hans Erlenmeyer extended the concept to biological systems in 1932. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] [ 6 ] Classical isosteres are defined as being atoms, ions and molecules that had identical outer shells of electrons, This definition has now been broadened to include ...

  5. Exchange interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_interaction

    Exchange interaction is the main physical effect responsible for ferromagnetism, and has no classical analogue. For bosons, the exchange symmetry makes them bunch together, and the exchange interaction takes the form of an effective attraction that causes identical particles to be found closer together, as in Bose–Einstein condensation.

  6. Furan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Furan

    Furan is a heterocyclic organic compound, consisting of a five-membered aromatic ring with four carbon atoms and one oxygen atom. Chemical compounds containing such rings are also referred to as furans. Furan is a colorless, flammable, highly volatile liquid with a boiling point close to room temperature.

  7. Ion exchange - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion_exchange

    Ion-exchange resin beads Ion-exchange column used for protein purification. Ion exchange is a reversible interchange of one species of ion present in an insoluble solid with another of like charge present in a solution surrounding the solid. Ion exchange is used in softening or demineralizing of water, purification of chemicals, and separation ...

  8. Ion-exchange membrane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ion-exchange_membrane

    An ion-exchange membrane is a semi-permeable membrane that transports certain dissolved ions, while blocking other ions or neutral molecules. [1] Ion-exchange membranes are therefore electrically conductive. They are often used in desalination and chemical recovery applications, moving ions from one solution to another with little passage of ...

  9. Bromide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromide

    A bromide ion is the negatively charged form (Br −) of the element bromine, a member of the halogens group on the periodic table.Most bromides are colorless. Bromides have many practical roles, being found in anticonvulsants, flame-retardant materials, and cell stains. [3]
