  2. Xanthate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xanthate

    Xanthate salts of alkali metals are produced by the treatment of an alcohol, alkali, and carbon disulfide.The process is called xanthation. [2] In chemical terminology, the alkali reacts with the alcohol to produce an alkoxide, which is the nucleophile that adds to the electrophilic carbon atom in CS 2. [3]

  3. Chugaev elimination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chugaev_elimination

    The intermediate is a xanthate. It is named for its discoverer, the Russian chemist Lev Aleksandrovich Chugaev (1873–1922), who first reported the reaction sequence in 1899. In the first step, a xanthate salt is formed out of the alkoxide and carbon disulfide (CS 2). With the addition of iodomethane, the alkoxide is transformed into a methyl ...

  4. Process tracing in psychology - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Process_tracing_in_psychology

    Process tracing methods in psychology are defined as observations which are made before the participant has come to a decision. These observations are used to present us with information regarding the psychological processes occurring within a participant, while they are weighing their choices. [ 1 ]

  5. Sodium ethyl xanthate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_ethyl_xanthate

    Sodium ethyl xanthate (SEX) [3] is an organosulfur compound with the chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 OCS 2 Na. It is a pale yellow powder, which is usually obtained as the dihydrate. Sodium ethyl xanthate is used in the mining industry as a flotation agent. [4] A closely related potassium ethyl xanthate (KEX) is obtained as the anhydrous salt.

  6. Reversible addition−fragmentation chain-transfer polymerization

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversible_addition%E2%88...

    In terms of mechanism, an ideal RAFT polymerization has several features. The pre-equilibrium and re-initiation steps are completed very early in the polymerization meaning that the major product of the reaction (the RAFT polymer chains, RAFT-P n), all start growing at approximately the same time. The forward and reverse reactions of the main ...

  7. Potassium amyl xanthate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Potassium_amyl_xanthate

    Potassium amyl xanthate (/pəˈtæsiəm ˌæmɪl ˈzænθeɪt/) is an organosulfur compound with the chemical formula CH 3 (CH 2) 4 OCS 2 K. It is a pale yellow powder with a pungent odor that is soluble in water. It is widely used in the mining industry for the separation of ores using the flotation process.

  8. Ironic process theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ironic_process_theory

    Ironic process theory (IPT), also known as the Pink elephant paradox [1] or White bear phenomenon, suggests that when an individual intentionally tries to avoid thinking a certain thought or feeling a certain emotion, a paradoxical effect is produced: the attempted avoidance not only fails in its object but in fact causes the thought or emotion to occur more frequently and more intensely. [2]

  9. Semantic processing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semantic_Processing

    Semantic processing is the deepest level of processing and it requires the listener to think about the meaning of the cue. Studies on brain imaging have shown that, when semantic processing occurs, there is increased brain activity in the left prefrontal regions of the brain that does not occur during different kinds of processing. One study ...
