  2. Methyl nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_nitrate

    Methyl nitrate is a very strong explosive with a detonation velocity of 6,300 m/s, [8] like nitroglycerin, ethylene glycol dinitrate, and other nitrate esters. The sensitivity of methyl nitrate to initiation by detonation is among the greatest known, with even a number one blasting cap , the lowest power available, producing a near full ...

  3. Nitrate ester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrate_ester

    In organic chemistry, a nitrate ester is an organic functional group with the formula R−ONO 2, where R stands for any organyl group. They are the esters of nitric acid and alcohols . A well-known example is nitroglycerin , which is not a nitro compound, despite its name.

  4. Robinson annulation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robinson_annulation

    Initial synthesis gave a racemic form of the compound using an intramolecular etherification reaction of the alcohol motifs and the double bond. Yamamoto and coworkers report the use of an alternative intramolecular Robinson annulation to provide a straightforward enantioselective synthesis of tetracyclic core of platensimycin.

  7. Barton reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Barton_reaction

    Most commonly, including steroidal systems, the hydrogen atom is abstracted from a methyl group that has a 1,3 diaxial relationship with the alkoxyl radical. [15] In the absence of a hydrogen on the δ-carbon, or when the particular conformation of the substrate orients the ε-carbon close together, 1,6-hydrogen atom transfer is the favored ...

  8. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_reaction

    Equations should be balanced according to the stoichiometry, the number of atoms of each species should be the same on both sides of the equation. This is achieved by scaling the number of involved molecules (A, B, C and D in a schematic example below) by the appropriate integers a, b, c and d .

  9. Methylammonium nitrate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylammonium_nitrate

    Methylammonium nitrate is an explosive chemical with the molecular formula CH 6 N 2 O 3, alternately CH 3 NH 3 + NO 3 −. It is the salt formed by the neutralization of methylamine with nitric acid. This substance is also known as methylamine nitrate and monomethylamine nitrate, not to be confused with methyl nitramine or monomethyl nitramine.
