  2. IUPAC nomenclature of chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IUPAC_nomenclature_of...

    The main structure of chemical names according to IUPAC nomenclature. IUPAC nomenclature is a set of recommendations for naming chemical compounds and for describing chemistry and biochemistry in general. The International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (IUPAC) is the international authority on chemical nomenclature and terminology.

  3. Potassium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_nitrate

    Potassium nitrate can be made by combining ammonium nitrate and potassium hydroxide. NH 4 NO 3 + KOH → NH 3 + KNO 3 + H 2 O. An alternative way of producing potassium nitrate without a by-product of ammonia is to combine ammonium nitrate, found in instant ice packs, [30] and potassium chloride, easily obtained as a sodium-free salt substitute.

  4. 4-Carboxybenzaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Carboxybenzaldehyde

    4-Carboxybenzaldehyde (CBA) is an organic compound with the formula OCHC 6 H 4 CO 2 H. It consists of a benzene ring substituted with both an aldehyde and a carboxylic acid, with these functional groups on opposite corners of the ring. This compound is formed in 0.5% yield as a byproduct in the production terephthalic acid from p-xylene. Since ...

  5. Nitrobenzoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrobenzoic_acid

    It also can be prepared by treating benzaldehyde under nitration conditions, a process that initially converts the aldehyde to the acid. 4-Nitrobenzoic acid is a precursor to 4-aminobenzoic acid, which is in turn used to prepare the anesthetic procaine. 4-Nitrobenzoic acid is prepared by oxidation of 4-nitrotoluene.

    Chronic Exposure: Under some circumstances methemoglobinemia occurs in individuals when the nitrate is converted by bacteria in the stomach to nitrite. Nausea, vomiting, dizziness, rapid heart beat, irregular breathing, convulsions, coma, and death can occur should this conversion take place.

  7. 2-Carboxybenzaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Carboxybenzaldehyde

    In a laboratory procedure, the oxidation of naphthalene with alkaline potassium permanganate is given, which, however, yields only a yield of 39% 2-carboxybenzaldehyde. [9] Also the oxidation of naphthalene with ozone to 2-formylbenzoic acid offers no significant advantages. [10] Synthese von 2-Carboxybenzaldehyd aus Naphthalin

  8. Benzoyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoyl_group

    In organic chemistry, benzoyl (/ ˈ b ɛ n z oʊ ɪ l /, BENZ-oh-il) [1] is the functional group with the formula −COC 6 H 5 and structure −C(=O)−C 6 H 5. [2] [3] It can be viewed as benzaldehyde missing one hydrogen. The benzoyl group has a mass of 105 amu. The term "benzoyl" should not be confused with benzyl, which has the formula − ...

  9. Niter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Niter

    Niter or nitre [5] is the mineral form of potassium nitrate, KNO 3.It is a soft, white, highly soluble mineral found primarily in arid climates or cave deposits. Historically, the term niter was not well differentiated from natron, both of which have been very vaguely defined but generally refer to compounds of sodium or potassium joined with carbonate or nitrate ions.
