  2. Pnictogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pnictogen

    Its trihalides, antimony trifluoride, antimony trichloride, antimony tribromide, and antimony triiodide, like all pnictogen trihalides, each have trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry. The +3 oxidation state is bismuth's most common oxidation state because its ability to form the +5 oxidation state is hindered by relativistic properties on ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bismuth_compounds

    Bismuth atoms are shown as grey, oxygen red, chlorine green. Bismuth oxychloride (BiOCl) and bismuth oxynitrate (BiONO 3) stoichiometrically appear simple anionic salts of the bismuthyl(III) cation (BiO +), which commonly occurs in aqueous bismuth compounds. However, in the case of BiOCl, the salt crystal forms alternating plates of Bi, O, and ...

  4. Antimony trichloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimony_trichloride

    The antimony trichloride reacts with the carotenoid to form a blue complex that can be measured by colorimetry. Antimony trichloride has also been used as an adulterant to enhance the louche effect in absinthe. It has been used in the past to dissolve and remove horn buds from calves without having to cut them off.

  5. Phosphorus tribromide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_tribromide

    Phosphorus tribromide, like PCl 3 and PF 3, has both properties of a Lewis base and a Lewis acid. For example, with a Lewis acid such as boron tribromide it forms stable 1 :1 adducts such as Br 3 B · PBr 3. At the same time PBr 3 can react as an electrophile or Lewis acid in many of its reactions, for example with amines.

  6. Antimonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antimonate

    In chemistry an antimonate is a compound which contains a metallic element, oxygen, and antimony in an oxidation state of +5. These compounds adopt polymeric structures with M-O-Sb linkages. They can be considered to be derivatives of the hypothetical antimonic acid H 3 SbO 4, or combinations of metal oxides and antimony pentoxide, Sb 2 O 5.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocyclic_compound

    Structures and names of common heterocyclic compounds Pyridine, a heterocyclic compound. A heterocyclic compound or ring structure is a cyclic compound that has atoms of at least two different elements as members of its ring(s). [1]

  8. Phosphorus halide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus_halide

    Phosphorus tribromide is used in organic chemistry to convert alcohols to alkyl bromides and carboxylic acids to acyl bromides (e.g. in the Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction). Phosphorus triiodide also finds use in organic chemistry, as a mild oxygen acceptor.

  9. Transition metal dioxygen complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_metal_dioxygen...

    Since O 2 has a triplet ground state and Vaska's complex is a singlet, the reaction is slower than when singlet oxygen is used. [7] The magnetic properties of some η 2-O 2 complexes show that the ligand, in fact, is superoxide, not peroxide. [8] Most complexes of η 2-O 2 are generated using hydrogen peroxide, not from O 2.
