  2. Oxygen evolution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxygen_evolution

    The reaction is part of the light-dependent reactions of photosynthesis in cyanobacteria and the chloroplasts of green algae and plants. It utilizes the energy of light to split a water molecule into its protons and electrons for photosynthesis. Free oxygen, generated as a by-product of this reaction, is released into the atmosphere. [2] [3]

  3. Phenylboronic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylboronic_acid

    Phenylboronic acid or benzeneboronic acid, abbreviated as PhB(OH) 2 where Ph is the phenyl group C 6 H 5 - and B(OH) 2 is a boronic acid containing a phenyl substituent and two hydroxyl groups attached to boron. Phenylboronic acid is a white powder and is commonly used in organic synthesis.

  4. Boronic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boronic_acid

    The general structure of a boronic acid, where R is a substituent. A boronic acid is an organic compound related to boric acid (B(OH) 3) in which one of the three hydroxyl groups (−OH) is replaced by an alkyl or aryl group (represented by R in the general formula R−B(OH) 2). [1]

  5. Photosynthetic efficiency - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_efficiency

    The following is a breakdown of the energetics of the photosynthesis process from Photosynthesis by Hall and Rao: [6]. Starting with the solar spectrum falling on a leaf, 47% lost due to photons outside the 400–700 nm active range (chlorophyll uses photons between 400 and 700 nm, extracting the energy of one 700 nm photon from each one)

  6. Anoxygenic photosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anoxygenic_photosynthesis

    Anoxygenic photosynthesis is a special form of photosynthesis used by some bacteria and archaea, which differs from the better known oxygenic photosynthesis in plants in the reductant used (e.g. hydrogen sulfide instead of water) and the byproduct generated (e.g. elemental sulfur instead of molecular oxygen).

  7. 4-Formylphenylboronic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Formylphenylboronic_acid

    4-Formylphenyl boronic acid crystallizes in colorless needles [2] or is obtained as an odorless, whitish powder, which dissolves little in cold but better in hot water. The compound is quite stable [4] and readily forms dimers and cyclic trimeric anhydrides, which complicate purification and tend to protodeboronize, a secondary reaction that occurs frequently in the Suzuki coupling, with ...

  8. 4-Chlorophenol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Chlorophenol

    4-Chlorophenol is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 4 ClOH. It is one of three monochlorophenol isomers. It is a colorless or white solid that melts easily and exhibits significant solubility in water.

  9. Biological carbon fixation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_carbon_fixation

    Cyanobacteria such as these carry out photosynthesis.Their emergence foreshadowed the evolution of many photosynthetic plants and oxygenated Earth's atmosphere.. Biological carbon fixation, or сarbon assimilation, is the process by which living organisms convert inorganic carbon (particularly carbon dioxide, CO 2) to organic compounds.
