  2. Ester - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ester

    An ester of a carboxylic acid.R stands for any group (typically hydrogen or organyl) and R ′ stands for any organyl group.. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (R ′).

    An ester of carboxylic acid. R stands for any group (organic or inorganic) and R′ stands for organyl group. In chemistry, an ester is a compound derived from an acid (organic or inorganic) in which the hydrogen atom (H) of at least one acidic hydroxyl group (−OH) of that acid is replaced by an organyl group (−R).

  4. Acyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acyl_group

    A general acyl group (blue) in a ketone (top left), as an acylium cation (top centre), as an acyl radical (top right), an aldehyde (bottom left), ester (bottom centre) or amide (bottom right). ( R 1 , R 2 and R 3 stands for organyl substituent or hydrogen in the case of R 1 )

  5. Cellulose acetate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellulose_acetate

    Mixing of the flakes: The final steps are similar to the processing of other plastics: Before the cellulose acetate flakes are transported to a collection container from where they are transported to the appropriate processing plants, the flakes are mixed in a precisely controlled manner. This is to compensate for deviations of the cellulose ...

  6. Yamaguchi esterification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yamaguchi_esterification

    The Yamaguchi esterification is the chemical reaction of an aliphatic carboxylic acid and 2,4,6-trichlorobenzoyl chloride (TCBC, Yamaguchi reagent) to form a mixed anhydride which, upon reaction with an alcohol in the presence of stoichiometric amount of DMAP, produces the desired ester. It was first reported by Masaru Yamaguchi et al. in 1979 ...

  7. Phthalates - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phthalates

    Various plants and microorganisms produce small amounts of phthalate esters, the so-called endogenous phthalates. [ 50 ] [ 51 ] Biosynthesis is believed to involve a modified Shikimate pathway [ 52 ] [ 53 ] The extent of this natural production is not fully known, but it may create a background of phthalate pollution.

    Phosphoric anhydride P 4 O 10 The limiting case of internal condensation, where all oxygen atoms are shared and there are no hydrogen atoms ( x = ⁠ n +2 / 2 ⁠ ) is an anhydride P 2 n O 5 n , phosphorus pentoxide P 4 O 10 .

  9. Fischer–Speier esterification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer–Speier...

    For example, in reacting ethanol with acetic anhydride, ethyl acetate forms and acetic acid is eliminated as a leaving group, which is considerably less reactive than an acid anhydride and will be left as a byproduct (in a wasteful 1:1 ratio with the ester product) if product is collected immediately. If conditions are acidic enough, the acetic ...
