Geometrical Isomerism

Introduction Compounds having similar chemical formulas but different chemical structures this phenomenon is known as Isomerism. Thus, these compounds having similar chemical formulae and differ in properties and arrangement of atoms in molecules are known as isomers. Geometrical isomerism is a type of stereoisomerism that has a similar molecular formula and structure but differs in […]

Halides

Halide is usually defined as a binary compound of a halogen with a more electropositive element or radical. Some halides have a covalent bond, some may have an ionic bonds, halide minerals of a group are naturally occurring inorganic compounds that are salts of halogen acids, a metal that usually occurs as a halide is

Halogenation Reaction Mechanism : Definition and Examples

Group-17 elements collectively known as halogens. They are highly reactive non-metallic elements. Group 17 includes Fluorine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine. Fluorine has the most electronegativity and smallest size, so it forms maximum,  number of interhalogen compounds. Astatine is the radioactive element.Halogens have the smallest atomic radius in their respective periods due to maximum effective

Hinsberg Reagent and Test

Benzene sulfonyl chloride is also known as the Hinsberg reagent. This name alludes to the way the Hinsberg test detects and distinguishes primary, secondary, and tertiary amines in a sample. C6H5SO2Cl is an organosulfur compound with the Hinsberg reagent formula (chemical formula). The Hinsberg reagent is a colourless, thick-textured oil that is organic solvent soluble.

Ziegler Natta Catalyst

A Ziegler–Natta catalyst is a catalyst used in the synthesis of 1-alkene polymers. It is named after Karl Ziegler and Giulio Natta (alpha-olefins). There are two types of Ziegler–Natta catalysts used, each with its own solubility: In polymerization operations, heterogeneous supported catalysts based on titanium compounds are utilized in conjunction with cocatalysts, organoaluminum compounds such

Wurtz Fittig Reaction Mechanism

Carbon is the most important compound in the periodic table, as it is useful for everything and serves as the foundation for all chemical sciences. The Wurtz–Fittig reaction was discovered with the help of this tetravalent and unique compound. The Wurtz reaction was discovered by Charles Adolphe Wurtz in the year 1855. A new carbon–carbon

What Are Diazonium Salts

Diazonium compounds or salts come in the category of organic compounds having triple bonds between nitrogen atoms. They have either an aryl (benzene ring) or alkyl on the other side. Diazonium salts are also known as the azo dyes’ intermediate phase. The double nitrogen (diazo) is present in ionic salts. It is where chloride molecules

Werner’s Theory VBT, CFT

Introduction In coordination compounds, there are two sorts of valencies, according to Werner’s ionisation of coordination compounds theory: The charge on complex ions is influenced by primary valencies, ionisable valencies that anions may meet. The quantity of secondary valencies dictates the coordination number of the metal atom. Secondary valencies are non-ionisable valencies that are filled

Uses of Zinc

The metal zinc was discovered by the German chemist Andreas Sigismund Marggraf in 1746. Zinc is a chemical element that has a silvery-greyish appearance. This general appearance of zinc is only visible when a layer of oxidation is removed. It belongs to group 12 and period 4 in the modern periodic table. It has an
