  2. Acetylacetone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetylacetone

    Sodium acetylacetonate, Na(acac), is the precursor to many acetylacetonate complexes. A general method of synthesis is to treat a metal salt with acetylacetone in the presence of a base: [12] MB z + z Hacac ⇌ M(acac) z + z BH. Both oxygen atoms bind to the metal to form a six-membered chelate ring.

  3. Sodium acetylacetonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_acetylacetonate

    Sodium acetylacetonate is an organic compound with the nominal formula Na[CH(C(O)CH 3) 2]. This white, water-soluble solid is the conjugate base of acetylacetone . [ 1 ]

  4. Cation-exchange capacity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cation-exchange_capacity

    Cation-exchange capacity (CEC) is a measure of how many cations can be retained on soil particle surfaces. [1] Negative charges on the surfaces of soil particles bind positively-charged atoms or molecules (cations), but allow these to exchange with other positively charged particles in the surrounding soil water. [2]

  5. Soil chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_chemistry

    Soil chemistry is the study of the chemical characteristics of soil.Soil chemistry is affected by mineral composition, organic matter and environmental factors. In the early 1870s a consulting chemist to the Royal Agricultural Society in England, named J. Thomas Way, performed many experiments on how soils exchange ions, and is considered the father of soil chemistry. [1]

  6. Metal acetylacetonates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_acetylacetonates

    The usual synthesis involves treatment of a metal salt with acetylacetone, acacH: [2] [page needed] M z+ + z Hacac ⇌ M(acac) z + z H + Addition of base assists the removal of a proton from acetylacetone and shifts the equilibrium in favour of the complex. Both oxygen centres bind to the metal to form a six-membered chelate ring.

  7. Acetone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetone

    Acetone (2-propanone or dimethyl ketone) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO. [22] It is the simplest and smallest ketone (>C=O).It is a colorless, highly volatile, and flammable liquid with a characteristic pungent odour, very reminiscent of the smell of pear drops.

  8. Plant nutrients in soil - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_nutrients_in_soil

    Nutrients in the soil are taken up by the plant through its roots, and in particular its root hairs.To be taken up by a plant, a nutrient element must be located near the root surface; however, the supply of nutrients in contact with the root is rapidly depleted within a distance of ca. 2 mm. [14] There are three basic mechanisms whereby nutrient ions dissolved in the soil solution are brought ...

  9. Hexane-2,5-dione - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexane-2,5-dione

    2,5-Hexanedione reacts with lysine residues in axonal proteins by Schiff base formation followed by cyclization to give pyrroles. Oxidation of the pyrrole residues then causes cross-linking and denaturation of proteins, which perturbs axonal transport and function and causes damage to nerve cells.
