  2. Verkade base - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Verkade_base

    In chemistry, the Verkade base (or Verkade superbase) is a powerful superbase with the formula P(MeNCH 2 CH 2) 3 N. A colorless oil, it is an aminophosphine although its inventor John Verkade called it proazaphosphatrane. The trimethyl derivative or 2,5,8,9-tetraaza-1-phosphabicyclo[3.3.3]undecane is the simplest.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_tert-butoxide

    Sodium tert-butoxide (or sodium t-butoxide) is a chemical compound with the formula (CH 3) 3 CONa (abbr. NaOtBu). [2] It is a strong, non-nucleophilic base. It is flammable and moisture sensitive. It is sometimes written in the chemical literature as sodium t-butoxide. It is similar in reactivity to the more common potassium tert-butoxide.

    RDX (abbreviation of "Research Department eXplosive" or Royal Demolition eXplosive) or hexogen, [4] among other names, is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2 N 2 O 2) 3. It is white, odorless, and tasteless, widely used as an explosive. [5] Chemically, it is classified as a nitroamine alongside HMX, which is a more energetic explosive ...

    Bases are defined by the Brønsted–Lowry theory as chemical substances that can accept a proton, i.e., a hydrogen ion.In water this is equivalent to a hydronium ion). The Lewis theory instead defines a Base as an electron-pair donor.

    Unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (abbreviated as UDMH; also known as 1,1-dimethylhydrazine, heptyl or Geptil) is a chemical compound with the formula H 2 NN(CH 3) 2 that is primarily used as a rocket propellant. [4] At room temperature, UDMH is a colorless liquid, with a sharp, fishy, ammonia-like smell typical of organic amines.
