    They are far less acidic than alpha hydrogens of carbonyl groups (such as in ketones or aldehydes), however. Ethers can be symmetrical of the type ROR or unsymmetrical of the type ROR'. Examples of the former are dimethyl ether, diethyl ether, dipropyl ether etc. Illustrative unsymmetrical ethers are anisole (methoxybenzene) and dimethoxyethane.

  3. Infrared spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_spectroscopy

    Infrared spectroscopy (IR spectroscopy or vibrational spectroscopy) is the measurement of the interaction of infrared radiation with matter by absorption, emission, or reflection. It is used to study and identify chemical substances or functional groups in solid, liquid, or gaseous forms.

  4. Ligand field theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ligand_field_theory

    John Stanley Griffith and Leslie Orgel [6] championed ligand field theory as a more accurate description of such complexes, although the theory originated in the 1930s with the work on magnetism by John Hasbrouck Van Vleck. Griffith and Orgel used the electrostatic principles established in crystal field theory to describe transition metal ions ...

    [16] [17] [18] For example, the CO ligands of octahedral complexes, such as Cr(CO) 6, transform as a 1g, e g, and t 1u, but only the t 1u mode (antisymmetric stretch of the apical carbonyl ligands) is IR-allowed. Thus, only a single ν CO band is observed in the IR spectra of the octahedral metal hexacarbonyls. Spectra for complexes of lower ...

  6. C2-Symmetric ligands - Wikipedia

    The ligand and metal presence changes all that. The carbonyl group will coordinate with the metal and due to the steric bulk of the phenyl group it will only be able to do so with its Si face exposed to the hydride ion with in the ideal situation exclusive formation of the (R) enantiomer. The re face will simply hit the chiral fence. [9]

  7. Two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Two-dimensional_infrared...

    Two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy (2D IR) is a nonlinear infrared spectroscopy technique that has the ability to correlate vibrational modes in condensed-phase systems. This technique provides information beyond linear infrared spectra, by spreading the vibrational information along multiple axes, yielding a frequency correlation spectrum.

  8. Transition metal ether complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_metal_ether_complex

    In chemistry, a transition metal ether complex is a coordination complex consisting of a transition metal bonded to one or more ether ligand. The inventory of complexes is extensive. [2] Common ether ligands are diethyl ether and tetrahydrofuran. Common chelating ether ligands include the glymes, dimethoxyethane (dme) and diglyme, and the crown ...

  9. Silyl enol ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Silyl_enol_ether

    The general structure of a silyl enol ether. In organosilicon chemistry, silyl enol ethers are a class of organic compounds that share the common functional group R 3 Si−O−CR=CR 2, composed of an enolate (R 3 C−O−R) bonded to a silane (SiR 4) through its oxygen end and an ethene group (R 2 C=CR 2) as its carbon end.
