  2. Food chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Food_chemistry

    Food chemistryis the study of chemicalprocesses and interactions of all biological and non-biological components of foods. [1][2]The biological substances include such items as meat, poultry, lettuce, beer, milkas examples. It is similar to biochemistryin its main components such as carbohydrates, lipids, and protein, but it also includes areas ...

  3. Phosphorus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosphorus

    Compounds with P-C and P-O-C bonds are often classified as organophosphorus compounds. They are widely used commercially. The PCl 3 serves as a source of P 3+ in routes to organophosphorus(III) compounds. For example, it is the precursor to triphenylphosphine: PCl 3 + 6 Na + 3 C 6 H 5 Cl → P(C 6 H 5) 3 + 6 NaCl

  6. Naturally occurring phenols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Naturally_occurring_phenols

    In biochemistry, naturally occurring phenols are natural products containing at least one phenol functional group. [1][2][3] Phenolic compounds are produced by plants and microorganisms. [4] Organisms sometimes synthesize phenolic compounds in response to ecological pressures such as pathogen and insect attack, UV radiation and wounding. [5]

  7. Dimethyl sulfoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dimethyl_sulfoxide

    Dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) is an organosulfur compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 S O.This colorless liquid is the sulfoxide most widely used commercially. It is an important polar aprotic solvent that dissolves both polar and nonpolar compounds and is miscible in a wide range of organic solvents as well as water.

  8. Chemical compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_compound

    A chemical compound is a chemical substance composed of many identical molecules (or molecular entities) containing atoms from more than one chemical element held together by chemical bonds. A molecule consisting of atoms of only one element is therefore not a compound. A compound can be transformed into a different substance by a chemical ...
