    Interaction of triethylphosphine oxide with a Lewis acid Boron trihalides are archetypal Lewis acids and have AN values between 89 (BF 3 ) and 115 (BI 3 ). [ 2 ] The Gutmann–Beckett method has been applied to fluoroarylboranes [ 7 ] [ 8 ] such as B(C 6 F 5 ) 3 (AN 82), and borenium cations, and its application to these and various other boron ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aqua_regia

    The reaction with hydrochloric acid is an equilibrium reaction that favors formation of tetrachloroaurate(III) anions. This results in a removal of gold ions from solution and allows further oxidation of gold to take place. The gold dissolves to become chloroauric acid. In addition, gold may be dissolved by the chlorine present in aqua regia.

    The above photo shows the positive results of the number 2 Marquis reagent presumptive drug test when used with a sample of opium. It is the primary presumptive test used in Ecstasy reagent testing kits. It can also be used to test for such substances as opiates (e.g. codeine, heroin), and phenethylamines (e.g. 2C-B, mescaline).
