  2. Phosphorus pentachloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_pentachloride

    Such reagents are useful in the preparation of derivatives of benzaldehyde by formylation and for the conversion of C−OH groups into C−Cl groups. [14] It is especially renowned for the conversion of C=O groups to CCl 2 groups. [15] For example, benzophenone and phosphorus pentachloride react to give the diphenyldichloromethane: [16]

  3. List of character tables for chemically important 3D point groups

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_character_tables...

    These groups are characterized by an n-fold improper rotation axis S n, where n is necessarily even. The S 2 group is the same as the C i group in the nonaxial groups section. S n groups with an odd value of n are identical to C nh groups of same n and are therefore not considered here (in particular, S 1 is identical to C s).

  5. Trigonal bipyramidal molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trigonal_bipyramidal...

    In chemistry, a trigonal bipyramid formation is a molecular geometry with one atom at the center and 5 more atoms at the corners of a triangular bipyramid. [1] This is one geometry for which the bond angles surrounding the central atom are not identical (see also pentagonal bipyramid), because there is no geometrical arrangement with five terminal atoms in equivalent positions.

  6. Seesaw molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_molecular_geometry

    Disphenoidal or seesaw (also known as sawhorse [1]) is a type of molecular geometry where there are four bonds to a central atom with overall C 2v molecular symmetry.The name "seesaw" comes from the observation that it looks like a playground seesaw.

  7. List of space groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_space_groups

    The 54 hemisymmorphic space groups contain only axial combination of symmetry elements from the corresponding point groups. Example for point group 4/mmm (): hemisymmorphic space groups contain the axial combination 422, but at least one mirror plane m will be substituted with glide plane, for example P4/mcc (, 35h), P4/nbm (, 36h), P4/nnc ...

  8. Point group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Point_group

    Point groups are used to describe the symmetries of geometric figures and physical objects such as molecules. Each point group can be represented as sets of orthogonal matrices M that transform point x into point y according to y = Mx. Each element of a point group is either a rotation (determinant of M = 1), or it is a reflection or improper ...

  9. Crystallographic point group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystallographic_point_group

    In crystallography, a crystallographic point group is a three dimensional point group whose symmetry operations are compatible with a three dimensional crystallographic lattice. According to the crystallographic restriction it may only contain one-, two-, three-, four- and sixfold rotations or rotoinversions. This reduces the number of ...
