It consists of a methylene bridge (−CH 2 − unit) bonded to a hydroxyl group (−OH). This makes the hydroxymethyl group an alcohol. It has the identical chemical formula with the methoxy group (−O−CH 3) that differs only in the attachment site and orientation to the rest of the molecule. However, their chemical properties are different ...
Orthoformic acid or methanetriol is a chemical compound with the formula H C(OH) 3. In this molecule, the central carbon atom is bound to one hydrogen and three hydroxyl groups. Orthoformic acid was long held to be a hypothetical chemical compound , as it was expected to decompose instantly into formic acid and water, making it too unstable to ...
CH 3 CH 2 OH . Parentheses are used to indicate multiple identical groups, indicating attachment to the nearest non-hydrogen atom on the left when appearing within a formula, or to the atom on the right when appearing at the start of a formula: (CH 3) 2 CHOH or CH(CH 3) 2 OH . In all cases, all atoms are shown, including hydrogen atoms.
When necessary, the position of the hydroxyl group is indicated by a number between the alkane name and the -ol: propan-1-ol for CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 OH, propan-2-ol for CH 3 CH(OH)CH 3. If a higher priority group is present (such as an aldehyde , ketone , or carboxylic acid ), then the prefix hydroxy- is used, [ 19 ] e.g., as in 1-hydroxy-2 ...
Calcium-deficient (non-stochiometric) hydroxyapatite, Ca 10−x (PO 4) 6−x (HPO 4) x (OH) 2−x (where x is between 0 and 1) has a Ca/P ratio between 1.67 and 1.5. The Ca/P ratio is often used in the discussion of calcium phosphate phases. [14] Stoichiometric apatite Ca 10 (PO 4) 6 (OH) 2 has a Ca/P ratio of 10:6
A medicine cabinet is a cabinet used to store medications and other hygiene products. [1] They are often locked and placed high enough such that it can not be accessed by small children. Medicine cabinets can be placed in many different places depending on the intended use and available space, and can for instance be found in workshops ...
The formula, Cu 2 CO 3 (OH) 2 shows that it is halfway between copper carbonate and copper hydroxide. Indeed, in the past the formula was written as CuCO 3 ·Cu(OH) 2. The crystal structure is made up of copper, carbonate and hydroxide ions. [37] The mineral atacamite is an example of a basic chloride. It has the formula, Cu 2 Cl(OH) 3.
β-Hydroxybutyric acid, also known as 3-hydroxybutyric acid or BHB, is an organic compound and a beta hydroxy acid with the chemical formula CH 3 CH(OH)CH 2 CO 2 H; its conjugate base is β-hydroxybutyrate, also known as 3-hydroxybutyrate. β-Hydroxybutyric acid is a chiral compound with two enantiomers: D-β-hydroxybutyric acid and L-β-hydroxybutyric acid.
