  2. Bromoform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromoform

    Bromoform was discovered in 1832 by Löwig who distilled a mixture of bromal and potassium hydroxide, as analogous to preparation of chloroform from chloral. [5]Bromoform can be prepared by the haloform reaction using acetone and sodium hypobromite, by the electrolysis of potassium bromide in ethanol, or by treating chloroform with aluminium bromide.

  3. Bromobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromobutane

    Bromobutane (molecular formula: C 4 H 9 Br, molar mass: 137.02 g/mol) may refer to either of two chemical compounds: 1-Bromobutane (n-butyl bromide)

  4. 2-Bromobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Bromobutane

    2-Bromobutane is an isomer of 1-bromobutane. Both compounds share the molecular formula C 4 H 9 Br. 2-Bromobutane is also known as sec-butyl bromide or methylethylbromomethane. Because it contains bromine, a halogen, it is part of a larger class of compounds known as alkyl halides. It is a colorless liquid with a pleasant odor.

  5. 1-Bromobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1-Bromobutane

    2 Li + C 4 H 9 X → C 4 H 9 Li + LiX where X = Cl, Br. The lithium for this reaction contains 1-3% sodium. When bromobutane is the precursor, the product is a homogeneous solution, consisting of a mixed cluster containing both LiBr and LiBu. 1-Fluorobutane can be obtained by reacting 1-bromobutane with potassium fluoride in ethylene glycol. [5]

  6. Isomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomer

    The most common one in nature (myo-inositol) has the hydroxyls on carbons 1, 2, 3 and 5 on the same side of that plane, and can therefore be called cis-1,2,3,5-trans-4,6-cyclohexanehexol. And each of these cis - trans isomers can possibly have stable "chair" or "boat" conformations (although the barriers between these are significantly lower ...

    Hydrogen forms hydrogen bonds with three elements which are nitrogen (N), oxygen (O) and fluorine (F). The names of these elements can be remembered by the following mnemonic. Hydrogen is FON! (fun). [25]

  8. Stereochemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereochemistry

    Stereochemistry, a subdiscipline of chemistry, studies the spatial arrangement of atoms that form the structure of molecules and their manipulation. [1] The study of stereochemistry focuses on the relationships between stereoisomers, which are defined as having the same molecular formula and sequence of bonded atoms (constitution) but differing in the geometric positioning of the atoms in space.

  9. Structural isomer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_isomer

    [2] [3] The term metamer was formerly used for the same concept. [4] For example, butanol H 3 C−(CH 2) 3 −OH, methyl propyl ether H 3 C−(CH 2) 2 −O−CH 3, and diethyl ether (H 3 CCH 2 −) 2 O have the same molecular formula C 4 H 10 O but are three distinct structural isomers. The concept applies also to polyatomic ions with the same ...
