  2. Palmitic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmitic_acid

    These applications use sodium palmitate, which is commonly obtained by saponification of palm oil. To this end, palm oil, rendered from palm trees (species Elaeis guineensis ), is treated with sodium hydroxide (in the form of caustic soda or lye), which causes hydrolysis of the ester groups, yielding glycerol and sodium palmitate.

  3. Palmitoylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Palmitoylation

    Anesthetics compete with palmitate in ordered lipids and this release gives rise to a component of membrane-mediated anesthesia. For example the anesthesia channel TREK-1 is activated by anesthetic displacement from GM1 lipids. [16] The palmitoylation site is specific for palmitate over prenylation.

  4. Cation–π interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cation–π_interaction

    The polarity is inverted due to differences in electronegativity for hydrogen and fluorine relative to carbon; the inverted quadrupole moment of hexafluorobenzene is necessary for anion-pi interactions. In many respects, anion–π interaction is the opposite of cation–π interaction, although the underlying principles are identical ...

  5. Piper diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piper_diagram

    A piper diagram and two ternary diagrams on the composition of intrusive volcanic rocks; see QAPF diagram. A Piper diagram is a graphic procedure proposed by Arthur M. Piper in 1944 for presenting water chemistry data to help in understanding the sources of the dissolved constituent salts in water.

  6. Sodium salt - Wikipedia

    The anion may be the conjugate base of some inorganic or organic acids, or any monatomic or polyatomic anion. ... Sodium palmitate, the sodium salt of palmitic acid.

  7. Dianion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dianion

    A dianion is an anion with a net charge of −2. While there exist many stable molecular dianions, such as BeF 4 2− and MgF 4 2−, [1] thus far no stable atomic dianion has been found: Electron shielding and other quantum mechanical effects tend to make the addition of another electron to an atomic anion unstable.

  8. Dication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dication

    A dication is any cation, of general formula X 2+, formed by the removal of two electrons from a neutral species.. Diatomic dications corresponding to stable neutral species (e.g. H 2+

  9. Chromium(III) acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromium(III)_acetate

    Chromium(III) acetate, commonly known as basic chromium acetate, [2] describes a family of salts where the cation has the formula [Cr 3 O(O 2 CCH 3) 6 (OH 2) 3] +.The trichromium cation is encountered with a variety of anions, such as chloride and nitrate.
