Pentaerythritol tetrakis(3-mercaptopropionate) is a common thiol monomer reacted with alkenes in the thiol-ene reaction to form polymeric networks. [3] Being functionalized with four thiol groups, it can react with multifunctional alkenes to form thiol-ene networks.
3-Mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) is an organosulfur compound with the formula HSCH 2 CH 2 CO 2 H. It is a bifunctional molecule, containing both carboxylic acid and thiol groups. It is a colorless oil.
An ester of carboxylic acid. R stands for any group (organic or inorganic) and R′ stands for organyl group. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (−R).
Pentaerythritol was first reported in 1891 by German chemist Bernhard Tollens and his student P. Wigand. [5] It may be prepared via a base-catalyzed multiple-addition reaction between acetaldehyde and 3 equivalents of formaldehyde to give pentaerythrose (CAS: 3818-32-4), followed by a Cannizzaro reaction with a fourth equivalent of formaldehyde to give the final product plus formate ion.
This colorless volatile liquid, the ortho ester of formic acid, is commercially available. The industrial synthesis is from hydrogen cyanide and ethanol. [1] It may also be prepared from the reaction of sodium ethoxide, formed in-situ from sodium and absolute ethanol, and chloroform: [2] CHCl 3 + 3 Na + 3 EtOH → HC(OEt) 3 + 3 ⁄ 2 H 2 + 3 NaCl
Beclometasone dipropionate, an example of a widely used corticosteroid ester. Note the propionate groups at the C17α and C21α positions (top right corner). This is a list of corticosteroid esters, including esters of steroidal glucocorticoids and mineralocorticoids. [1] [2] [3]
3-Mercaptopropionitrile is the organosulfur compound with the formula HSCH 2 CH 2 CN. [1] Containing both thiol and nitrile functional groups , it is a bifunctional compound . A colorless liquid, the compound has found some use as a masked form of thiolate.
IUPAC states that, "As one of its major activities, IUPAC develops Recommendations to establish unambiguous, uniform, and consistent nomenclature and terminology for specific scientific fields, usually presented as: glossaries of terms for specific chemical disciplines; definitions of terms relating to a group of properties; nomenclature of chemical compounds and their classes; terminology ...
