Diazonium salts

Introduction Tranquillizers are those drugs that target the central nervous system, or the CNS, and act as depressants. The term tranquillizer was first coined in 1953 by F. F. Yonkman. These drugs are called tranquillizers because they cause a calming effect and a state of tranquillity in animals. In medicine, these drugs are known as […]

Sodium nitrate is a naturally occurring nitrate salt of alkali metals with the chemical formula NaNO3. Sodium nitrate is a naturally occurring salt with the chemical formula NaNO3. In some circles, it is also referred to as “Chilean saltpetre.” Sodium nitrate is a trace element found only in Chile and Peru, and in trace amounts

Liquid ammonia is a colourless gas with a distinctly unpleasant odour. It is lighter than air because its density is 0.589 times that of air. Due to the strong hydrogen bonds that exist between molecules, it is quickly liquefied; the liquid boils at 33.1°C (27.58 F). Liquid Ammonia Liquid ammonia is produced naturally and by

Ammonia is generated in the atmosphere mostly as a result of bacteria degradation of nitrogenous components emitted by animals and plants. Azane is the IUPAC term for ammonia. Ammonia has the chemical formula NH3. Ammonia has a variety of properties. Nitric acid (HNO3) is a colourless liquid that emits bitter yellow or red odours. Nitric

Diazonium salts are organic compounds containing three nitrogen atoms and an alkyl or an aryl (benzene ring) group on the opposite side. The diazonium salts are between the azo dyes and the dye salts (colouring agents). They are referred to as salts due to the presence of a double nitrogen atom (diazo), which is often
