  2. Aluminium chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aluminium_chloride

    Anhydrous aluminium chloride is hygroscopic, having a very pronounced affinity for water. It fumes in moist air and hisses when mixed with liquid water as the Cl − ligands are displaced with H 2 O molecules to form the hexahydrate [Al(H 2 O) 6]Cl 3. The anhydrous phase cannot be regained on heating the hexahydrate.

  3. Work-up - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work-up

    The desired product, benzoic acid (3), is obtained by the following work-up: [2] Synthesis of benzoic acid with work-up step in red. The reaction mixture containing the Grignard reagent is allowed to warm to room temperature in a water bath to allow excess dry ice to evaporate. Any remaining Grignard reagent is quenched by the addition of water.

  4. Electrophilic halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophilic_halogenation

    Halogenation of phenols is faster in polar solvents in a basic environment due to the dissociation of phenol, with phenoxide ions being more susceptible to electrophilic attack as they are more electron-rich. Chlorination of toluene with chlorine without catalyst requires a polar solvent as well such as acetic acid.

  5. Alkenylsuccinic anhydrides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkenylsuccinic_anhydrides

    Both compound classes are hydrophobic and therefore virtually insoluble in water - the solubility of the commonly used iso-octadecenylsuccinic anhydride (C 18-ASA) is only 5.33x10 −5 mgl −1. ASA are less hydrophobic and thus less water repellent than AKD because of their shorter chain length.

  6. Dissociation (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dissociation_(chemistry)

    Acetic acid (CH 3 COOH) and ammonium (NH + 4) are good examples. Acetic acid is extremely soluble in water, but most of the compound dissolves into molecules, rendering it a weak electrolyte. Weak bases and weak acids are generally weak electrolytes. In an aqueous solution there will be some CH 3 COOH and some CH 3 COO − and H +.

  7. Metal ions in aqueous solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal_ions_in_aqueous_solution

    The strength of the bonds between the metal ion and water molecules in the primary solvation shell increases with the electrical charge, z, on the metal ion and decreases as its ionic radius, r, increases. Aqua ions are subject to hydrolysis. The logarithm of the first hydrolysis constant is proportional to z 2 /r for most aqua ions.

  8. Hydrolysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrolysis

    Mechanism for acid-catalyzed hydrolysis of an amide. Upon hydrolysis, an amide converts into a carboxylic acid and an amine or ammonia (which in the presence of acid are immediately converted to ammonium salts). One of the two oxygen groups on the carboxylic acid are derived from a water molecule and the amine (or ammonia) gains the hydrogen ion.

  9. Organic acid anhydride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_acid_anhydride

    A common type of organic acid anhydride is a carboxylic anhydride, where the parent acid is a carboxylic acid, the formula of the anhydride being (RC(O)) 2 O. Symmetrical acid anhydrides of this type are named by replacing the word acid in the name of the parent carboxylic acid by the word anhydride. [2] Thus, (CH 3 CO) 2 O is called acetic ...
