  2. Chloroethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloroethane

    Chloroethane, commonly known as ethyl chloride, is a chemical compound with chemical formula CH 3 CH 2 Cl, once widely used in producing tetraethyllead, a gasoline additive. It is a colorless, flammable gas or refrigerated liquid with a faintly sweet odor.

  3. Acyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acyl_group

    For example, the C–C bond in ethane has an energy barrier of only 12 kJ/mol (3 kcal/mol). [2] Once a nucleophile attacks and a tetrahedral intermediate is formed, the energetically favorable resonance effect is lost. This helps explain why amides are one of the least reactive acyl derivatives. [3]

  4. Hydrazone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrazone

    Pigment Yellow 97, a popular yellow colorant, is a hydrazone. [6]Hydrazones are the basis for various analyses of ketones and aldehydes. For example, dinitrophenylhydrazine coated onto a silica sorbent is the basis of an adsorption cartridge.

  5. Organochlorine chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organochlorine_chemistry

    The mechanism of action is the insecticide binding at the GABA A site in the GABA-gated chloride channel (IRAC group 2A), which inhibits chloride flow into the nerve. [13]: 257 Other examples include dicofol, mirex, kepone, and pentachlorophenol. These can be either hydrophilic or hydrophobic, depending on their molecular structure. [14]

  6. Dehydrohalogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dehydrohalogenation

    Here ethyl chloride reacts with potassium hydroxide, typically in a solvent such as ethanol, giving ethylene. Likewise, 1-chloropropane and 2-chloropropane give propene . Zaitsev's rule helps to predict regioselectivity for this reaction type.

  7. Wacker process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wacker_process

    The conditions for Stille's experiments differ significantly from industrial process conditions. Other studies using normal industrial Wacker conditions (except with high chloride and high copper chloride concentrations) also yielded products that inferred nucleophilic attack was an anti-addition reaction. [15]

  8. Acetyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl_group

    In organic chemistry, an acetyl group is a functional group denoted by the chemical formula −COCH 3 and the structure −C(=O)−CH 3.It is sometimes represented by the symbol Ac [5] [6] (not to be confused with the element actinium).

  9. Photochlorination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photochlorination

    The major products were ethyl chloride, tetrachlorocarbon and dichloromethane. [7] Because of concerns about health and environmentally relevant problems such as the ozone depletion behavior of light volatile chlorine compounds, the chemical industry developed alternative procedures that did not require chlorinated compounds. As a result of the ...
