    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmium_tetroxide

    Osmium tetroxide (also osmium(VIII) oxide) is the chemical compound with the formula OsO 4.The compound is noteworthy for its many uses, despite its toxicity and the ...

  3. Osmium compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Osmium_compounds

    The OsF 6 molecule itself (the form important for the liquid or gas phase) has octahedral molecular geometry, which has point group (O h). The Os–F bond length is 1.827 Å. [25] Partial hydrolysis of OsF 6 produces OsOF 4. [26]

  4. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    Molecular geometry is the three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms that constitute a molecule. It includes the general shape of the molecule as well as bond lengths , bond angles , torsional angles and any other geometrical parameters that determine the position of each atom.

  5. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    Relativistic effects on the electron orbitals of superheavy elements is predicted to influence the molecular geometry of some compounds. For instance, the 6d 5/2 electrons in nihonium play an unexpectedly strong role in bonding, so NhF 3 should assume a T-shaped geometry, instead of a trigonal planar geometry like its lighter congener BF 3. [38]

  6. Skeletal formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Skeletal_formula

    The skeletal formula of the antidepressant drug escitalopram, featuring skeletal representations of heteroatoms, a triple bond, phenyl groups and stereochemistry. The skeletal formula, line-angle formula, bond-line formula or shorthand formula of an organic compound is a type of molecular structural formula that serves as a shorthand representation of a molecule's bonding and some details of ...

  7. Geometry index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geometry_index

    In coordination chemistry and crystallography, the geometry index or structural parameter (τ) is a number ranging from 0 to 1 that indicates what the geometry of the coordination center is. The first such parameter for 5-coordinate compounds was developed in 1984. [ 1 ]

  8. Ruthenium tetroxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruthenium_tetroxide

    Ruthenium tetroxide is the inorganic compound with the formula RuO 4.It is a yellow volatile solid that melts near room temperature. [3] It has the odor of ozone. [4] Samples are typically black due to impurities.

  9. N-Methylmorpholine N-oxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/N-Methylmorpholine_N-oxide

    N-Methylmorpholine N-oxide (more correctly 4-methylmorpholine 4-oxide), NMO or NMMO is an organic compound.This heterocyclic amine oxide and morpholine derivative is used in organic chemistry as a co-oxidant and sacrificial catalyst in oxidation reactions for instance in osmium tetroxide oxidations and the Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation or oxidations with TPAP.
