Chromium trioxide (also known as chromium(VI) oxide or chromic anhydride) is an inorganic compound with the formula CrO 3. It is the acidic anhydride of chromic acid, and is sometimes marketed under the same name. [6] This compound is a dark-purple solid under anhydrous conditions and bright orange when wet. The substance dissolves in water ...
Chromium oxide may refer to: Chromium(II) oxide, CrO; Chromium(III) oxide, Cr 2 O 3; Chromium dioxide (chromium(IV) oxide), CrO 2, which includes the hypothetical compound chromium(II) chromate; Chromium trioxide (chromium(VI) oxide), CrO 3; Chromium(VI) oxide peroxide, CrO 5; Mixed valence species, such as Cr 8 O 21
Chromium(III) oxide is amphoteric. Although insoluble in water, it reacts with acid to produce salts of hydrated chromium ions such as [Cr(H 2 O) 6] 3+. [11] It is also attacked by concentrated alkali to yield salts of [Cr(OH) 6] 3−. When heated with finely divided carbon or aluminium, it is reduced to chromium metal: Cr 2 O 3 + 2 Al → 2 Cr ...
Antimony trioxide – Sb 2 O 3; Antimony(V) oxide – Sb 2 O 5; Arsenic trioxide – As 2 O 3; Arsenic(V) oxide – As 2 O 5; Barium oxide – BaO; Beryllium oxide – BeO; Bismuth(III) oxide – Bi 2 O 3; Bismuth oxychloride – BiOCl; Boron trioxide – B 2 O 3; Bromine monoxide – Br 2 O; Carbon dioxide – CO 2; Carbon monoxide – CO ...
Chrome plating (less commonly chromium plating) is a technique of electroplating a thin layer of chromium onto a metal object. A chrome plated part is called chrome, or is said to have been chromed. The chromium layer can be decorative, provide corrosion resistance, facilitate cleaning, and increase surface hardness. Sometimes a less expensive ...
The Sarett oxidation is an organic reaction that oxidizes primary and secondary alcohols to aldehydes and ketones, respectively, using chromium trioxide and pyridine.Unlike the similar Jones oxidation, the Sarett oxidation will not further oxidize primary alcohols to their carboxylic acid form, neither will it affect carbon-carbon double bonds. [1]
Collins reagent is the complex of chromium(VI) oxide with pyridine in dichloromethane. [2] This metal-pyridine complex, a red solid, is used to oxidize primary alcohols to the corresponding aldehydes and secondary alcohols to the corresponding ketones. This complex is a hygroscopic orange solid. [1]
The Cornforth reagent is prepared by slow addition of a concentrated aqueous solution of chromium trioxide to pyridine. The reaction may cause explosion, which is avoided by thoroughly dissolving the trioxide in water and cooling the solution by ice. The product is filtered, washed with acetone and dried, yielding an orange powder.
