Acetylenediol
Acetylenediol, or ethynediol, is a chemical substance with formula HO−C≡C−OH (an ynol). It is the diol of acetylene. Acetylenediol is unstable in the condensed phase, although its tautomer glyoxal (CHO)2 is well known. Detection Acetylenediol was first observed in the gas-phase by mass spectrometry. The compound was later obtained by photolysis of squaric acid in a solid argon matrix at . Derivatives Alkoxide derivatives Like the diol, most simple ether derivatives are labile. Di-tert-butoxyacetylene is however a distillable liquid. Acetylenediolate salts Salts of the acetylenediolate (ethynediolate) dianion −O−C≡C−O− are known. They are not however prepared from ethynediol, but by the reduction of carbon monoxide. Potassium acetylenediolate (K2C2O2) was first obtained by Liebig in 1834, from the reaction of carbon monoxide with metallic potassium;Justus Liebig (1834), Annalen der Chemie und Pharmacie, volume 11, p. 182.

Acetylenedicarboxylic Acid
Acetylenedicarboxylic acid or butynedioic acid is an organic compound (a dicarboxylic acid) with the formula C4H2O4 or . It is a crystalline solid that is soluble in diethyl ether. The removal of two protons yields the acetylenedicarboxylate dianion , which consists only of carbon and oxygen, making it an oxocarbon anion. Partial ionization yields the monovalent hydrogenacetylenedicarboxylate anion . The acid was first described in 1877 by Polish chemist Ernest Bandrowski. It can be obtained by treating α,β-dibromosuccinic acid with potassium hydroxide KOH in methanol or ethanol. The reaction yields potassium bromide and potassium acetylenedicarboxylate. The salts are separated and the latter is treated with sulfuric acid. Acetylenedicarboxylic acid is used in the synthesis of dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate, an important laboratory reagent. The acid is commonly traded as a laboratory chemical. It can also be reacted with sulfur tetrafluoride to produce hexafluoro-2-buty ...

Deltic Acid
Deltic acid or dihydroxycyclopropenone is a chemical substance with the chemical formula C3O(OH)2. It can be viewed as a ketone and double Alcohol (chemistry), alcohol of cyclopropene. At room temperature, it is a stable white solid, soluble in diethyl ether, that decomposes (sometimes explosively) between 140 °C and 180 °C, and reacts slowly with water. Derivatives Deltate and salts Deltic acid is considered an acid because it is a particularly acidic Enol#Enediols, enediol, with hydroxyl groups relatively easily losing their protons (p''K''a1 = 2.57, p''K''a2 = 6.03), leaving behind the symmetric deltate anion, . The first deltate salt (chemistry), salts (of lithium and potassium) were described in 1976, also by Eggerding and West. Lithium deltate Li2C3O3 is a water-soluble white solid. Like the other cyclic dianions with formula , the deltate anion has a pronounced aromaticity, aromatic character which contributes to its relative stability. A ...

Chemical Substance
A chemical substance is a form of matter having constant chemical composition and characteristic properties. Some references add that chemical substance cannot be separated into its constituent elements by physical separation methods, i.e., without breaking chemical bonds. Chemical substances can be simple substances (substances consisting of a single chemical element), chemical compounds, or alloys. Chemical substances are often called 'pure' to set them apart from mixtures. A common example of a chemical substance is pure water; it has the same properties and the same ratio of hydrogen to oxygen whether it is isolated from a river or made in a laboratory. Other chemical substances commonly encountered in pure form are diamond (carbon), gold, table salt (sodium chloride) and refined sugar (sucrose). However, in practice, no substance is entirely pure, and chemical purity is specified according to the intended use of the chemical. Chemical substances exist as solids, liquids, ...

Lithium
Lithium (from el, λίθος, lithos, lit=stone) is a chemical element with the symbol Li and atomic number 3. It is a soft, silvery-white alkali metal. Under standard conditions, it is the least dense metal and the least dense solid element. Like all alkali metals, lithium is highly reactive and flammable, and must be stored in vacuum, inert atmosphere, or inert liquid such as purified kerosene or mineral oil. When cut, it exhibits a metallic luster, but moist air corrodes it quickly to a dull silvery gray, then black tarnish. It never occurs freely in nature, but only in (usually ionic) compounds, such as pegmatitic minerals, which were once the main source of lithium. Due to its solubility as an ion, it is present in ocean water and is commonly obtained from brines. Lithium metal is isolated electrolytically from a mixture of lithium chloride and potassium chloride. The nucleus of the lithium atom verges on instability, since the two stable lithium isotopes foun ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Alkynols
Alkynols (''hydroxyalkynes'') are organic chemical compounds derived from alkynes and are among the alcohols. Thus, as structural features, they have a C≡C triple bond and a hydroxy group. They are not identical to the ynols. Some alkynols play a role as intermediates in the chemical industry. Compounds in this group include propargyl alcohol, 3-butyn-1-ol, and 5-hexyn-1-ol. Synthesis Alkynols may be formed by the alkynylation of carbonyl compounds, usually in liquid ammonia. Literature * Allinger, Cava, de Jongh, Johnson, Lebel, Stevens: ''Organische Chemie'', 1.

Alkyne Derivatives
\ce \ce Acetylene \ce \ce \ce Propyne \ce \ce \ce \ce 1-Butyne In organic chemistry, an alkyne is an unsaturated hydrocarbon containing at least one carbon—carbon triple bond. The simplest acyclic alkynes with only one triple bond and no other functional groups form a homologous series with the general chemical formula . Alkynes are traditionally known as acetylenes, although the name ''acetylene'' also refers specifically to , known formally as ethyne using IUPAC nomenclature. Like other hydrocarbons, alkynes are generally hydrophobic. Structure and bonding In acetylene, the H–C≡C bond angles are 180°. By virtue of this bond angle, alkynes are rod-like. Correspondingly, cyclic alkynes are rare. Benzyne cannot be isolated. The C≡C bond distance of 121 picometers is much shorter than the C=C distance in alkenes (134 pm) or the C–C bond in alkanes (153 pm). : The triple bond is very strong with a bond strength of 839 kJ/mol.

Ynol
In organic chemistry, an alkynol (shortened to ynol) is an alkyne with a hydroxyl group affixed to one of the two carbon atoms composing the triple bond (). The deprotonated anions of ynols are known as ''ynolates''. An ynol with hydroxyl groups on both sides of its triple bond is known as an ynediol; only one ynediol, acetylenediol, exists. Ynolates Ynolates are chemical compounds with a negatively charged oxygen atom attached to an alkyne functionality. They were first synthesized in 1975 by Schöllkopf and Hoppe via the ''n''-butyllithium fragmentation of 3,4-diphenylisoxazole. Synthetically, they behave as ketene precursors or synthons. Ynol–ketene tautomerism Ynols can interconvert with ketenes, much like enols can with aldehydes and ketones. The ynol tautomer is usually unstable, does not survive long, and changes into the ketene. This is because oxygen is more electronegative than carbon and thus forms stronger bonds. For instance, ethynol quickly inter ...

Organouranium Chemistry
Organouranium chemistry is the science exploring the properties, structure and reactivity of organouranium compounds, which are organometallic compounds containing a carbon to uranium chemical bond. The field is of some importance to the nuclear industry and of theoretical interest in organometallic chemistry. History The development of organouranium compounds started in World War II when the Manhattan Project required volatile uranium compounds for 235U/238U isotope separation. For example, Henry Gilman attempted to synthesize compounds like tetramethyluranium, and others worked on uranium metal carbonyls, but none of the efforts met success due to organouranium instability. After the discovery of ferrocene in 1951, Todd Reynolds and Geoffrey Wilkinson in 1956 synthesized the uranium metallocene Cp3UCl from sodium cyclopentadienide and uranium tetrachloride as a stable but extremely air-sensitive compound. In it, the U-Cl bond is an ionic bond, while the bonds with the three ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Squarate
Squaric acid, also called quadratic acid because its four carbon atoms approximately form a square, is a diprotic organic acid with the chemical formula C4O2(OH)2. The conjugate base of squaric acid is the hydrogensquarate anion ; and the conjugate base of the hydrogensquarate anion is the divalent squarate anion . This is one of the oxocarbon anions, which consist only of carbon and oxygen. Squaric acid is a reagent for chemical synthesis, used for instance to make photosensitive squaraine dyes and inhibitors of protein tyrosine phosphatases. Chemical properties Squaric acid is a white crystalline powder. The onset of thermal decomposition depends on the different thermodynamic conditions such as heating rates. The structure of squaric acid is not a perfect square, as the carbon–carbon bond lengths are not quite equal. The high acidity with p''K''a = 1.5 for the first proton and p''K''a = 3.4 for the second is attributable to resonance stabilization of the anion. Because t ...

1,2-Bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane
1,2-Bis(dimethylphosphino)ethane (dmpe) is a diphosphine ligand in coordination chemistry. It is a colorless, air-sensitive liquid that is soluble in organic solvents. With the formula (CHPMe), dmpe is used as a compact strongly basic spectator ligand (Me = methyl), Representative complexes include V(dmpe)(BH), Mn(dmpe)(AlH), Tc(dmpe)(CO)Cl, and Ni(dmpe)Cl. Synthesis It is synthesised by the reaction of methylmagnesium iodide with 1,2-bis(dichlorophosphino)ethane: :ClPCHCHPCl + 4 MeMgI → MePCHCHPMe + 4 MgICl Alternatively it can be generated by alkylation of sodium dimethylphosphide.

Coordination Compound
A coordination complex consists of a central atom or ion, which is usually metallic and is called the ''coordination centre'', and a surrounding array of bound molecules or ions, that are in turn known as ''ligands'' or complexing agents. Many metal-containing compounds, especially those that include transition metals (elements like titanium that belong to the Periodic Table's d-block), are coordination complexes. Nomenclature and terminology Coordination complexes are so pervasive that their structures and reactions are described in many ways, sometimes confusingly. The atom within a ligand that is bonded to the central metal atom or ion is called the donor atom. In a typical complex, a metal ion is bonded to several donor atoms, which can be the same or different. A polydentate (multiple bonded) ligand is a molecule or ion that bonds to the central atom through several of the ligand's atoms; ligands with 2, 3, 4 or even 6 bonds to the central atom are common.
