  2. Sulfur dioxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_dioxide

    Sulfur dioxide (IUPAC-recommended spelling) or sulphur dioxide (traditional Commonwealth English) is the chemical compound with the formula S O 2 . It is a colorless gas with a pungent smell that is responsible for the odor of burnt matches.

  3. Cheletropic reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cheletropic_reaction

    Case 3 & 4: the single atom is the sulfur in sulfur dioxide (SO 2), which joins the alkene chains to form a ring. In organic chemistry , cheletropic reactions , also known as chelotropic reactions , [ 2 ] are a type of pericyclic reaction (a chemical reaction that involves a transition state with a cyclic array of atoms and an associated cyclic ...

    The role of sulfur dioxide, SO 2, in mammalian biology is not well understood. [30] Sulfur dioxide blocks nerve signals from the pulmonary stretch receptors and abolishes the Hering–Breuer inflation reflex. Sulfur dioxide plays a role in diminishing an experimental lung damage caused by oleic acid. Endogenous sulfur dioxide lowered lipid ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfur_compounds

    The two principal sulfur oxides are obtained by burning sulfur: S + O 2 → SO 2 (sulfur dioxide) 2 SO 2 + O 2 → 2 SO 3 (sulfur trioxide). Many other sulfur oxides are observed including the sulfur-rich oxides include sulfur monoxide, disulfur monoxide, disulfur dioxides, and higher oxides containing peroxo groups.

    Sulfur is a vital element for building more complex molecules, and — like carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and phosphate — scientists need to study it more to fully understand how planets are made ...

  9. SNi - Wikipedia

    The second step is the loss of a sulfur dioxide molecule and its replacement by the chloride, which was attached to the sulphite group. The difference between S N 1 and S N i is actually that the ion pair is not completely dissociated , and therefore no real carbocation is formed, which else would lead to a racemisation.
