  2. List of esters - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_esters

    An ester of carboxylic acid. R stands for any group (organic or inorganic) and R′ stands for organyl group. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (−R).

    An ester of a carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (typically hydrogen or organyl) and R ′ stands for any organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (R ′).

  4. Organophosphate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organophosphate

    Organophosphate flame retardants are part of a wider family of phosphorus-based agents which include organic phosphonate and phosphinate esters, in addition to inorganic salts. [ 56 ] [ 57 ] When some prominent brominated flame retardant were banned in the early 2000s phosphorus-based agents were promoted as safer replacements.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Category:Esters

    In organic chemistry and biochemistry esters are the functional group (R'-COOR") consisting of an organic radical united with the residue of any oxygen acid, either organic or inorganic. An ester is a product of the reaction of an acid (usually organic) and an alcohol (the hydrogen of the acid R-COOH is replaced by an alkyl group R").

  6. Carbonate ester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonate_ester

    In organic chemistry, a carbonate ester (organic carbonate or organocarbonate) is an ester of carbonic acid. This functional group consists of a carbonyl group flanked by two alkoxy groups. The general structure of these carbonates is R−O−C(=O)−O−R' and they are related to esters ( R−O−C(=O)−R' ), ethers ( R−O−R' ) and also to ...

  7. Olive - Wikipedia

    Once ripening occurs, the levels of phenolics sharply decline through their conversion to other organic products, which render some cultivars edible immediately. [107] One example of an edible olive native to the island of Thasos is the throubes black olive, which becomes edible when allowed to ripen in the sun, shrivel, and fall from the tree.

  8. Dibasic ester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dibasic_ester

    Dibasic ester or DBE is an ester of a dicarboxylic acid.Depending on the application, the alcohol may be methanol or higher molecular weight monoalcohols. Mixtures of different methyl dibasic esters are commercially produced from short-chain acids such as adipic acid, glutaric acid, and succinic acid. [1]

  9. Pentyl propanoate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentyl_propanoate

    Pentyl propanoate (also known as amyl propionate) is an organic ester formed by the condensation of pentan-1-ol and propanoic acid. [2] It is a colorless liquid with an apple-like odor, that floats on water. [3]
