  2. Bromoform - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromoform

    Bromoform was discovered in 1832 by Löwig who distilled a mixture of bromal and potassium hydroxide, as analogous to preparation of chloroform from chloral. [5]Bromoform can be prepared by the haloform reaction using acetone and sodium hypobromite, by the electrolysis of potassium bromide in ethanol, or by treating chloroform with aluminium bromide.

  3. Chemical polarity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_polarity

    When comparing a polar and nonpolar molecule with similar molar masses, the polar molecule in general has a higher boiling point, because the dipole–dipole interaction between polar molecules results in stronger intermolecular attractions. One common form of polar interaction is the hydrogen bond, which is also

  4. Triphenylmethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triphenylmethane

    Triphenylmethane or triphenyl methane (sometimes also known as Tritan), is the hydrocarbon with the formula (C 6 H 5) 3 CH. This colorless solid is soluble in nonpolar organic solvents and not in water.

  5. Carbon–hydrogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–hydrogen_bond

    Because of this small difference in electronegativities, the C−H bond is generally regarded as being non-polar. In structural formulas of molecules, the hydrogen atoms are often omitted. Compound classes consisting solely of C−H bonds and C−C bonds are alkanes, alkenes, alkynes, and aromatic hydrocarbons.

  6. Dibromomethane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dibromomethane

    Dibromomethane is prepared commercially from dichloromethane via bromochloromethane: . 6 CH 2 Cl 2 + 3 Br 2 + 2 Al → 6 CH 2 BrCl + 2 AlCl 3 CH 2 Cl 2 + HBr → CH 2 BrCl + HCl. The latter route requires aluminium trichloride as a catalyst. [3]

  7. Reversed-phase chromatography - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reversed-phase_chromatography

    Reversed-phase liquid chromatography (RP-LC) is a mode of liquid chromatography in which non-polar stationary phase and polar mobile phases are used for the separation of organic compounds. [1] [2] [3] The vast majority of separations and analyses using high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) in recent years are done using the reversed ...

  8. Polarizability - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarizability

    Water is a very polar molecule, but alkanes and other hydrophobic molecules are more polarizable. Water with its permanent dipole is less likely to change shape due to an external electric field. Water with its permanent dipole is less likely to change shape due to an external electric field.

  9. Solvent effects - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solvent_effects

    This arises from the fact that polar solvents stabilize the formation of the carbocation intermediate to a greater extent than the non-polar-solvent conditions. This is apparent in the ΔE a, ΔΔG ‡ activation. On the right is an S N 2 reaction coordinate diagram. Note the decreased ΔG ‡ activation for the non-polar-solvent reaction ...
