Of two isomers of butylbenzene, n-butylbenzene consists of a phenyl group attached to the 1 position of a butyl group. It is a slightly greasy, colorless liquid. The synthesis of n-butylbenzene by the reaction of chlorobenzene and butylmagnesium bromide was one of the first demonstrations of the Kumada coupling using nickel diphosphine ...
Crystalline potassium permanganate (KMnO 4) is placed in an evaporating dish. A depression is made at the center of the permanganate powder and glycerol liquid is added to it. The white smoke-like vapor produced by the reaction is a mixture of carbon dioxide gas and water vapor.
In chemistry, a reaction mechanism is the step by step sequence of elementary reactions by which overall chemical reaction occurs. [ 1 ] A chemical mechanism is a theoretical conjecture that tries to describe in detail what takes place at each stage of an overall chemical reaction.
Potassium permanganate will decompose into potassium manganate, manganese dioxide and oxygen gas: 2 KMnO 4 → K 2 MnO 4 + MnO 2 + O 2. This reaction is a laboratory method to prepare oxygen, but produces samples of potassium manganate contaminated with MnO 2. The former is soluble and the latter is not.
Biochemical reactions involving a single substrate are often assumed to follow Michaelis–Menten kinetics, without regard to the model's underlying assumptions. Only a small proportion of enzyme-catalysed reactions have just one substrate, but the equation still often applies if only one substrate concentration is varied.
N-tert-Butylbenzenesulfinimidoyl chloride is a useful oxidant for organic synthesis reactions. [1] It is a good electrophile, and the sulfimide S=N bond can be attacked by nucleophiles, such as alkoxides, enolates, and amide ions. The nitrogen atom in the resulting intermediate is basic, and can abstract an α-hydrogen to create a new double bond.
A permanganate (/ p ər ˈ m æ ŋ ɡ ə n eɪ t, p ɜːr-/) [1] is a chemical compound with the manganate(VII) ion, MnO − 4, the conjugate base of permanganic acid.Because the manganese atom has a +7 oxidation state, the permanganate(VII) ion is a strong oxidising agent.
Gattermann-Koch reaction: named after German chemists Ludwig Gattermann and Julius Arnold Koch, the Gattermann-Koch reaction is a catalyzed formylation of alkylbenzenes with carbon monoxide and hydrochloric acid. [5] Alkylbenzene sulfonation reaction: electrophilic addition of a sulfonic acid group onto the aromatic ring. [4]
