  2. Chromic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromic_acid

    Chromic acid in aqueous sulfuric acid and acetone is known as the Jones reagent, which will oxidize primary and secondary alcohols to carboxylic acids and ketones respectively, while rarely affecting unsaturated bonds. [12] Pyridinium chlorochromate is generated from chromium trioxide and pyridinium chloride.

  3. Bicarbonate buffer system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate_buffer_system

    k H CO 2 is a constant including the solubility of carbon dioxide in blood. k H CO 2 is approximately 0.03 (mmol/L)/mmHg; p CO 2 is the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the blood; Combining these equations results in the following equation relating the pH of blood to the concentration of bicarbonate and the partial pressure of carbon ...

  4. Jones oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jones_oxidation

    The reaction stoichiometry implicates the Cr(IV) species "CrO 2 OH −", which comproportionates with the chromic acid to give a Cr(V) oxide, which also functions as an oxidant for the alcohol. [ 6 ] The oxidation of the aldehydes is proposed to proceed via the formation of hemiacetal -like intermediates, which arise from the addition of the O ...

  5. Chloride shift - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chloride_shift

    Bicarbonate in the red blood cell (RBC) exchanging with chloride from plasma in the lungs. The underlying properties creating the chloride shift are the presence of carbonic anhydrase within the RBCs but not the plasma, and the permeability of the RBC membrane to carbon dioxide and bicarbonate ion but not to hydrogen ion.

  6. Baeyer–Villiger oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baeyer–Villiger_oxidation

    The Baeyer–Villiger oxidation is an organic reaction that forms an ester from a ketone or a lactone from a cyclic ketone, using peroxyacids or peroxides as the oxidant. [1] The reaction is named after Adolf von Baeyer and Victor Villiger who first reported the reaction in 1899.

  7. Sodium chromate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_chromate

    It is a diagnostic pharmaceutical in determining red blood cell volume. [4] In organic chemistry, sodium chromate is used as an oxidant, converting primary alcohols to carboxylic acids and secondary alcohols to ketones. [5] Sodium chromate is a strong oxidizer.

  8. Bicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicarbonate

    CO 2 produced as a waste product of the oxidation of sugars in the mitochondria reacts with water in a reaction catalyzed by carbonic anhydrase to form H 2 CO 3, which is in equilibrium with the cation H + and anion HCO 3 −. It is then carried to the lung, where the reverse reaction occurs and CO 2 gas is released. In the kidney (left), cells ...

  9. Büchner–Curtius–Schlotterbeck reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Büchner–Curtius...

    The reaction was originally carried out in diethyl ether and routinely generated high yields due to the inherent irreversibly of the reaction caused by the formation of nitrogen gas. Though these reactions can be carried out at room temperature, the rate does increase at higher temperatures. Typically, the reaction is carried out at less than ...
