  2. Cobalt (II) thiocyanate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt(II)_thiocyanate

    Cobalt(II) thiocyanate is an inorganic compound with the formula Co(SCN) 2. [1] The anhydrous compound is a coordination polymer with a layered structure. The trihydrate, Co(SCN) 2 (H 2 O) 3, is a isothiocyanate complex used in the cobalt thiocyanate test (or Scott test) for detecting cocaine. The test has been responsible for widespread false ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycerophospholipid

    For example sn-glycero-3-phosphoric acid and sn-glycero-1-phosphoric acid are enantiomers. Most vegetable oils have unsaturated fatty acids in the sn-2 position, with saturated fatty acids in the 1-sn and/or 3-sn position. [8] Animal fats more often have saturated fatty acids in the 2-sn, with unsaturated fatty acids in the 1-sn and/or 3-sn ...

  4. Thio- - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thio-

    This term is often used in organic chemistry. For example, from the word ether , referring to an oxygen-containing compound having the general chemical structure R−O−R′ , where R and R′ are organic functional groups and O is an oxygen atom, comes the word thioether , which refers to an analogous compound with the general structure R−S ...

    According to ancient and medieval science, aether (/ ˈ iː θ ər /, alternative spellings include æther, aither, and ether), also known as the fifth element or quintessence, is the material that fills the region of the universe beyond the terrestrial sphere. [1]

  6. Luminiferous aether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Luminiferous_aether

    Luminiferous aether or ether [1] (luminiferous meaning 'light-bearing') was the postulated medium for the propagation of light. [2] It was invoked to explain the ability of the apparently wave-based light to propagate through empty space (a vacuum), something that waves should not be able to do. The assumption of a spatial plenum (space ...

  7. Demethylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demethylation

    Demethylation often refers to cleavage of ethers, especially aryl ethers. [12]Historically, aryl methyl ethers, including natural products such as codeine (O-methylmorphine), have been demethylated by heating the substance in molten pyridine hydrochloride (melting point 144 °C (291 °F)) at 180 to 220 °C (356 to 428 °F), sometimes with excess hydrogen chloride, in a process known as the ...

    The ensuing reaction results in the cleavage of the ether or the ester into an alkyl iodide and respectively an alcohol or a carboxylic acid. Zeisel determination. By heating this mixture, the gases are allowed to come into contact with a piece of paper higher up the test tube saturated with silver nitrate.
