Dibromophenols are a group of bromophenols consisting of one hydroxy group and two bromine atoms bonded to a benzene ring. There are six structural isomers, each with the molecular formula C 6 H 4 Br 2 O, which differ by arrangement of the substituents.
A bromophenol is an organic compound consisting of hydroxyl groups and bromine atoms bonded to a benzene ring. They may be viewed as hydroxyl derivatives of bromobenzene, or as brominated derivatives of phenol. There are five basic types of bromophenols (mono- to pentabromophenol) and 19 different bromophenols in total when positional isomerism ...
At room temperature, 2,4-dibromophenol is a solid with needle-like crystals. It melts at 38 °C (100.4 °F) and boils at 238.5 °C (461.3 °F). it has a molecular weight of 251.905 g/mol. It is soluble in water, ethanol, ether and benzene and slightly soluble in carbon tetrachloride. [1]
The acidity of the hydroxyl group in phenols is commonly intermediate between that of aliphatic alcohols and carboxylic acids (their pK a is usually between 10 and 12). Deprotonation of a phenol forms a corresponding negative phenolate ion or phenoxide ion , and the corresponding salts are called phenolates or phenoxides ( aryloxides according ...
Saccoglossus bromophenolosus is a species of acorn worm (class Enteropneusta) occurring in the northwestern Atlantic Ocean and the northeastern Pacific Ocean. It grows to a length of about 20 cm (8 in) and lives in a burrow in soft sediment in the intertidal and subtidal zones.
Primary nutritional groups are groups of organisms, divided in relation to the nutrition mode according to the sources of energy and carbon, needed for living, growth and reproduction. The sources of energy can be light or chemical compounds; the sources of carbon can be of organic or inorganic origin.
Bioprocess engineering is a conglomerate of mathematics, biology and industrial design, and consists of various spectrums like designing of Fermentors, study of fermentors (mode of operations etc.). It also deals with studying various biotechnological processes used in industries for large scale production of biological product for optimization ...
The term "lithotroph" was created from the Greek terms 'lithos' (rock) and 'troph' (consumer), meaning "eaters of rock". Many but not all lithoautotrophs are extremophiles. The last universal common ancestor of life is thought to be a chemolithotroph (due to its presence in the prokaryotes). [2]
