  2. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    The reactivity of a functional group can be modified by other functional groups nearby. Functional group interconversion can be used in retrosynthetic analysis to plan organic synthesis. A functional group is a group of atoms in a molecule with distinctive chemical properties, regardless of the other atoms in the molecule. The atoms in a ...

  3. Functionality (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functionality_(Chemistry)

    In organic chemistry, functionality is often used as a synonym for functional group. For example, a hydroxyl group can also be called a HO-function. [1] [2] Functionalisation means the introduction of functional groups, for example the functionalisation of a surface [3] (e.g. silanization for the specific modification of the adhesion of a surface)

  4. Benzoyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoyl_group

    The benzoyl functional group. In organic chemistry, benzoyl (/ ˈ b ɛ n z oʊ ɪ l /, BENZ-oh-il) [1] is the functional group with the formula −COC 6 H 5 and structure −C(=O)−C 6 H 5. [2] [3] It can be viewed as benzaldehyde missing one hydrogen. The benzoyl group has a mass of 105 amu.

  5. Triflate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triflate

    In organic chemistry, triflate (systematic name: trifluoromethanesulfonate), is a functional group with the formula R−OSO 2 CF 3 and structure R−O−S(=O) 2 −CF 3. The triflate group is often represented by −OTf, as opposed to −Tf, which is the triflyl group, R−SO 2 CF 3. For example, n-butyl triflate can be written as CH 3 CH 2 CH ...

  7. Vinyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_group

    In organic chemistry, a vinyl group (abbr. Vi; [1] IUPAC name: ethenyl group [2]) is a functional group with the formula −CH=CH 2. It is the ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene) molecule (H 2 C=CH 2) with one fewer hydrogen atom. The name is also used for any compound containing that group, namely R−CH=CH 2 where R is any other group of atoms.

  8. Diol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diol

    A diol is a chemical compound containing two hydroxyl groups (−OH groups). [1] An aliphatic diol may also be called a glycol. [2] This pairing of functional groups is pervasive, and many subcategories have been identified. They are used as protecting groups of carbonyl groups, making them essential in synthesis of organic chemistry. [3]

  9. Aldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldehyde

    Aldehyde structure. In organic chemistry, an aldehyde (/ ˈ æ l d ɪ h aɪ d /) is an organic compound containing a functional group with the structure R−CH=O. [1] The functional group itself (without the "R" side chain) can be referred to as an aldehyde but can also be classified as a formyl group.
