In organic chemistry, vinylation is the process of attaching a vinyl group (CH 2 =CH−) to a substrate. Many organic compounds contain vinyl groups, so the process has attracted significant interest, especially since the reaction scope includes substituted vinyl groups. The reactions can be classified according to the source of the vinyl group.
A vinyl record. Molded PVC is used to produce phonograph, or "vinyl," records. PVC piping is a cheaper alternative to metal tubing used in musical instrument making; it is therefore a common alternative when making wind instruments, often for leisure or for rarer instruments such as the contrabass flute.
Vinyl, acetate, and shellac discs being exposed to soil and fungus spores. Library of Congress Study, 1959. The conservation and restoration of vinyl discs refers to the preventive measures taken to defend against damage and slow degradation, and to maintain fidelity of singles, 12" singles, EP’s, and LP’s in 45 or 33⅓ rpm 10" disc ...
Chemical structure of the vinyl functional group. In organic chemistry , a vinyl group (abbr. Vi ; [ 1 ] IUPAC name : ethenyl group [ 2 ] ) is a functional group with the formula −CH=CH 2 . It is the ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene) molecule ( H 2 C=CH 2 ) with one fewer hydrogen atom.
Vinyl chloride is an organochloride with the formula H 2 C=CHCl. It is also called vinyl chloride monomer (VCM) or chloroethene. It is an important industrial chemical chiefly used to produce the polymer polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Vinyl chloride is a colourless flammable gas that has a sweet odor and is carcinogenic.
In polymer chemistry, polymerization (American English), or polymerisation (British English), is a process of reacting monomer molecules together in a chemical reaction to form polymer chains or three-dimensional networks. [1] [2] [3] There are many forms of polymerization [4] and different systems exist to categorize them.
Vinyllithium is used to install vinyl groups on metal-based reagents, i.e., vinylations. It is a precursor to vinylsilanes, vinylcuprates, and vinylstannanes. [3] It adds to ketones compounds to give allylic alcohols. Vinylmagnesium bromide is often used in place of vinyllithium. [4]
