    Hydrolysis (/ haɪˈdrɒlɪsɪs /; from Ancient Greek hydro- 'water' and lysis 'to unbind') is any chemical reaction in which a molecule of water breaks one or more chemical bonds. The term is used broadly for substitution, elimination, and solvation reactions in which water is the nucleophile. [ 1 ]

  8. Tetraethyl orthosilicate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetraethyl_orthosilicate

    Tetraethyl orthosilicate, formally named tetraethoxysilane (TEOS), ethyl silicate is the organic chemical compound with the formula Si (OC 2 H 5) 4. TEOS is a colorless liquid. It degrades in water. TEOS is the ethyl ester of orthosilicic acid, Si (OH) 4. It is the most prevalent alkoxide of silicon.

  9. Diethyl ether - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diethyl_ether

    Diethyl ether is a hard Lewis base that reacts with a variety of Lewis acids such as iodine, phenol, and trimethylaluminium, and its base parameters in the ECW model are E B = 1.80 and C B = 1.63. Diethyl ether is a common laboratory aprotic solvent. Diethyl ether is susceptible to formation of hydroperoxides.
