Most primary and secondary perfluoroalcohols are unstable, for example trifluoromethanol eliminates hydrogen fluoride, forming carbonyl fluoride. [2] This reaction is reversible. [3] CF 3 OH → COF 2 + HF. Stable perfluorinated alcohols include nonafluoro-tert-butyl alcohol ((CF 3) 3 COH) and pentafluorophenol (C 6 F 5 OH).
The location of this enzyme in animal cells is within the mitochondria. [3] Since the enzyme appears to be located near its source of succinyl-CoA and the end of the heme pathway indicates that the starting and end points of heme biosynthesis serves as feedback for ALA synthase. [3] ALA synthase is also inhibited by hemin and glucose. [9] Heme ...

2-Fluoroethanol is the organic compound with the formula CH 2 FCH 2 OH. This colorless liquid is one of the simplest stable fluorinated alcohols. This colorless liquid is one of the simplest stable fluorinated alcohols.
Pentafluorophenol is the organofluorine compound (specifically a fluoroalcohol) with the formula C 6 F 5 OH. This is the perfluorinated analogue of phenol. It is a white solid that melts just above room temperature, and smells of phenol. With a pK a of 5.5, it is one of the most acidic phenols.
Nonafluoro-tert-butyl alcohol (IUPAC name: 1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-(trifluoromethyl)propan-2-ol) is a fluoroalcohol. It is the perfluorinated analog of tert -butyl alcohol . Notably, as a consequence of its electron withdrawing fluorine substituents, it is very acidic for an alcohol, with a p K a value of 5.4, similar to that of a carboxylic acid.
Triflic acid (CF 3 SO 3 H) and trifluoroacetic acid (CF 3 CO 2 H) are useful throughout organic synthesis. Their strong acidity is attributed to the electronegativity of the trifluoromethyl group that stabilizes the negative charge. The triflate-group (the conjugate base of the triflic acid) is a good leaving group in substitution reactions.
A furanose (sugar-ring) molecule with carbon atoms labeled using standard notation. The 5′ is upstream; the 3′ is downstream. DNA and RNA are synthesized in the 5′-to-3′ direction. Directionality, in molecular biology and biochemistry, is the end-to-end chemical orientation of a single strand of nucleic acid.
