  2. N-Bromosuccinimide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-Bromosuccinimide

    N-Bromosuccinimide or NBS is a chemical reagent used in radical substitution, electrophilic addition, and electrophilic substitution reactions in organic chemistry. NBS can be a convenient source of Br • , the bromine radical.

  3. Dexamethasone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dexamethasone

    Dexamethasone is a synthetic pregnane corticosteroid and derivative of cortisol (hydrocortisone) and is also known as 1-dehydro-9α-fluoro-16α-methylhydrocortisone or as 9α-fluoro-11β,17α,21-trihydroxy-16α-methylpregna-1,4-diene-3,20-dione. [77] [78] The molecular and crystal structure of dexamethasone has been determined by X-ray ...

  4. Imide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imide

    A general linear imide functional group. In organic chemistry, an imide is a functional group consisting of two acyl groups bound to nitrogen. [1] The compounds are structurally related to acid anhydrides, although imides are more resistant to hydrolysis.

  5. Succinimide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Succinimide

    Succinimide is an organic compound with the formula (CH 2) 2 (CO) 2 NH. This white solid is used in a variety of organic syntheses, as well as in some industrial silver plating processes. This white solid is used in a variety of organic syntheses, as well as in some industrial silver plating processes.

  6. Bromine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromine_compounds

    Structure of N-bromosuccinimide, a common brominating reagent in organic chemistry. Like the other carbon–halogen bonds, the C–Br bond is a common functional group that forms part of core organic chemistry. Formally, compounds with this functional group may be considered organic derivatives of the bromide anion.

  7. Glucocorticoid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glucocorticoid

    Dexamethasone – a synthetic glucocorticoid binds more powerfully to the glucocorticoid receptor than cortisol does. Dexamethasone is based on the cortisol structure but differs at three positions (extra double bond in the A-ring between carbons 1 and 2 and addition of a 9-α-fluoro group and a 16-α-methyl substituent).

  8. Wohl–Ziegler bromination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wohl–Ziegler_bromination

    The Wohl–Ziegler reaction [1] [2] is a chemical reaction that involves the allylic or benzylic bromination of hydrocarbons using an N-bromosuccinimide and a radical initiator. [3] Best yields are achieved with N-bromosuccinimide in carbon tetrachloride solvent. Several reviews have been published. [4] [5]
