  2. 3-Pentanone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-Pentanone

    It can also be prepared by combining ethylene, CO, and H 2. [4] When the reaction is catalyzed by dicobalt octacarbonyl, water can be used as a source of hydrogen.A proposed intermediate is the ethylene-propionyl species [CH 3 C(O)Co(CO) 3 (ethylene)] which undergoes a migratory insertion to form [CH 3 COCH 2 CH 2 Co(CO) 3].

  3. Methoxyethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methoxyethane

    Methoxyethane, also known as ethyl methyl ether, is a colorless gaseous ether with the formula CH 3 OCH 2 CH 3. Unlike the related dimethyl ether and diethyl ether, which are widely used and studied, this mixed alkyl ether has no current applications. It is a structural isomer of isopropyl alcohol.

    Numerous organic compounds have other common names, often originating in historical source material thereof. The systematic IUPAC name is not always the preferred IUPAC name, for example, lactic acid is a common, and also the preferred, name for what systematic rules call 2-hydroxypropanoic acid.

    The mixture is a colorless liquid. These tautomers interconvert so rapidly under most conditions that they are treated as a single compound in most applications. [2] Acetylacetone is a building block for the synthesis of many coordination complexes as well as heterocyclic compounds.

  6. Acetyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl_group

    In organic chemistry, an acetyl group is a functional group denoted by the chemical formula −COCH 3 and the structure −C(=O)−CH 3. It is sometimes represented by the symbol Ac [5] [6] (not to be confused with the element actinium). In IUPAC nomenclature, an acetyl group is called an ethanoyl group.

    The skeletal formula of the antidepressant drug escitalopram, featuring skeletal representations of heteroatoms, a triple bond, phenyl groups and stereochemistry. The skeletal formula, line-angle formula, bond-line formula or shorthand formula of an organic compound is a type of molecular structural formula that serves as a shorthand representation of a molecule's bonding and some details of ...

  8. Carbonyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonyl_group

    For organic chemistry, a carbonyl group is a functional group with the formula C=O, composed of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom, and it is divalent at the C atom. It is common to several classes of organic compounds (such as aldehydes , ketones and carboxylic acids ), as part of many larger functional groups.

  9. Ketone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketone

    In organic chemistry, a ketone / ˈ k iː t oʊ n / is an organic compound with the structure R−C(=O)−R', where R and R' can be a variety of carbon-containing substituents. Ketones contain a carbonyl group −C(=O)− (a carbon-oxygen double bond C=O). The simplest ketone is acetone (where R and R' is methyl), with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO ...
