  2. Picoline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Picoline

    Picoline was obtained, in impure form, in 1826 by the German chemist Otto Unverdorben (1806 – 1873), who obtained it by the pyrolysis (roasting) of bones. [1] He called it Odorin due to its unpleasant smell. [2] In 1849, the Scottish chemist Thomas Anderson (1819 – 1874) prepared picoline in pure form, from coal tar and via the pyrolysis of ...

  3. 4-Methylpyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/4-Methylpyridine

    4-Methylpyridine is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 C 5 H 4 N. It is one of the three isomers of methylpyridine. This pungent liquid is a building block for the synthesis of other heterocyclic compounds. Its conjugate acid, the 4-methylpyridinium ion, has a pK a of 5.98, about 0.7 units above that of pyridine itself. [1]

  4. 2-Methylpyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Methylpyridine

    2-Methylpyridine, or 2-picoline, is the compound described with formula C 6 H 7 N. 2-Picoline is a colorless liquid that has an unpleasant odor similar to pyridine. It is mainly used to make vinylpyridine and the agrichemical nitrapyrin .

  5. 3-Methylpyridine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-Methylpyridine

    3-Methylpyridine or 3-picoline, is an organic compound with formula 3-CH 3 C 5 H 4 N. It is one of three positional isomers of methylpyridine, whose structures vary according to where the methyl group is attached around the pyridine ring. This colorless liquid is a precursor to pyridine derivatives that have applications in the pharmaceutical ...

  6. Photosynthetic reaction centre - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photosynthetic_reaction_centre

    The fact that the oxygen from green plants originated from water was first deduced by the Canadian-born American biochemist Martin David Kamen. He used a stable isotope of oxygen, 18 O, to trace the path of the oxygen from water to gaseous molecular oxygen. This reaction is catalyzed by a reactive center in Photosystem II containing four ...

  7. Chemocline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemocline

    The Black Sea is an example of a body of water with a prominent chemocline, though similar bodies (classified as meromictic lakes) exist across the globe. [4] [5] Meromictic lakes are the result of meromixis, which is a circumstance where a body of water does not fully mix and circulate, causing stratification. [1] [6]

  8. Light-dependent reactions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light-dependent_reactions

    The electron can be transferred to another molecule. As the ionized pigment returns to the ground state, it takes up an electron and gives off energy to the oxygen evolving complex so it can split water into electrons, protons, and molecular oxygen (after receiving energy from the pigment four times).

  9. Chichibabin pyridine synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chichibabin_pyridine_synthesis

    The Chichibabin pyridine synthesis (/ ˈ tʃ iː tʃ iː ˌ b eɪ b iː n /) is a method for synthesizing pyridine rings. The reaction involves the condensation reaction of aldehydes, ketones, α,β-Unsaturated carbonyl compounds, or any combination of the above, with ammonia. [1]
