  2. 2,4,6-Tribromoaniline - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,4,6-tribromoaniline

    2,4,6-Tribromoaniline. Except where otherwise noted, data are given for materials in their standard state (at 25 °C [77 °F], 100 kPa). 2,4,6-Tribromoaniline is a brominated derivative of aniline with the formula C 6 H 4 Br 3 N. It is used in organic synthesis of pharmaceuticals, agrochemicals and fire-extinguishing agents.

    Stages 4 and 5 (0.85 Ga – present): Other O 2 reservoirs filled; gas accumulates in atmosphere. [1] The Great Oxidation Event (GOE) or Great Oxygenation Event, also called the Oxygen Catastrophe, Oxygen Revolution, Oxygen Crisis or Oxygen Holocaust, [2] was a time interval during the Earth 's Paleoproterozoic era when the Earth's atmosphere ...

  4. 2,4,6-Tribromoanisole - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,4,6-Tribromoanisole

    Infobox references. 2,4,6-Tribromoanisole (TBA) is a chemical compound that is a brominated derivative of anisole. It is one of the chemicals responsible for cork taint. [2] Tribromoanisole is a fungal metabolite of 2,4,6-tribromophenol, which is used as a fungicide. It can be found in minute traces on packaging materials stored in the presence ...

  5. Neoproterozoic oxygenation event - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoproterozoic_oxygenation...

    The Neoproterozoic Oxygenation Event (NOE), also called the Second Great Oxidation Event, was a geologic time interval between around 850 and 540 million years ago during the Neoproterozoic era, which saw a very significant increase in oxygen levels in Earth's atmosphere and oceans. [1] Taking place after the end to the Boring Billion, an ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boring_Billion

    The oceans may have been distinctly stratified, with surface water being oxygenated [33] [34] [35] and deep water being suboxic (less than 1 μM oxygen), [37] the latter possibly maintained by lower levels of hydrogen (H 2) and H 2 S output by deep sea hydrothermal vents which otherwise would have been chemically reduced by the oxygen, i.e ...

  7. Geological history of oxygen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geological_history_of_oxygen

    Geological history of oxygen. Although oxygen is the most abundant element in Earth's crust, due to its high reactivity it mostly exists in compound (oxide) forms such as water, carbon dioxide, iron oxides and silicates. Before photosynthesis evolved, Earth's atmosphere had no free diatomic elemental oxygen (O 2). [2]

  8. Bromine test - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromine_test

    The formation of a brominated phenol (i.e. 2,4,6-tribromophenol) or aniline (i.e. 2,4,6-tribromoaniline) in form of a white precipitate indicates that the unknown was a phenol or aniline. The more unsaturated an unknown is, the more bromine it reacts with, and the less coloured the solution will appear.

  9. Composition of the human body - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Composition_of_the_human_body

    About 99% of the mass of the human body is made up of six elements: oxygen, carbon, hydrogen, nitrogen, calcium, and phosphorus. Only about 0.85% is composed of another five elements: potassium, sulfur, sodium, chlorine, and magnesium. All 11 are necessary for life. The remaining elements are trace elements, of which more than a dozen are ...
