  2. Glycolaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycolaldehyde

    Glycolaldehyde as a gas is a simple monomeric structure. As a solid and molten liquid, it exists as a dimer.Collins and George reported the equilibrium of glycolaldehyde in water by using NMR.

  3. Acetic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetic_acid

    acetyl chloride SOCl 2 acetic acid (i) Li[AlH 4], ether (ii) H 3 O + ethanol Two typical organic reactions of acetic acid Acetic acid undergoes the typical chemical reactions of a carboxylic acid. Upon treatment with a standard base, it converts to metal acetate and water. With strong bases (e.g., organolithium reagents), it can be doubly deprotonated to give LiCH 2 COOLi. Reduction of acetic ...

  4. Ethylene glycol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ethylene_glycol

    Ethylene glycol (IUPAC name: ethane-1,2-diol) is an organic compound (a vicinal diol [7]) with the formula (CH 2 OH) 2.It is mainly used for two purposes: as a raw material in the manufacture of polyester fibers and for antifreeze formulations.

  5. C–H···O interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/C–H···O_interaction

    Similar to hydrogen bonds, a C–H···O interaction involves interactions of dipoles and therefore has directionality. [4] The directionality of a C–H···O interaction is usually defined by the angle α between the С, Н and О atoms, and the distance d between the O and C atoms.

  6. Wolff–Kishner reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wolff–Kishner_reduction

    The Wolff–Kishner reduction is a reaction used in organic chemistry to convert carbonyl functionalities into methylene groups. [1] [2] In the context of complex molecule synthesis, it is most frequently employed to remove a carbonyl group after it has served its synthetic purpose of activating an intermediate in a preceding step.

  7. Carboxylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carboxylic_acid

    Structure of a carboxylic acid Carboxylate anion 3D structure of a carboxylic acid. In organic chemistry, a carboxylic acid is an organic acid that contains a carboxyl group (−C(=O)−OH) [1] attached to an R-group.

  8. Dihydrogen complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydrogen_complex

    An often studied dihydrogen complex of iron, [HFe(H 2)(dppe) 2] +.. The usual method for characterization is 1 H NMR spectroscopy.The magnitude of spin–spin coupling, J HD, is a useful indicator of the strength of the bond between the hydrogen and deuterium in HD complexes.

  9. Protecting group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protecting_group

    Ethylene glycol protects a ketone (as an acetal) during an ester reduction, vs. unprotected reduction to a diol. A protecting group or protective group is introduced into a molecule by chemical modification of a functional group to obtain chemoselectivity in a subsequent chemical reaction.
