CarbometalationA carbometallation is any reaction where a carbon-metal bond reacts with a carbon-carbon π-bond to produce a new carbon-carbon σ-bond and a carbon-metal σ-bond. The resulting carbon-metal bond can undergo further carbometallation reactions (oligomerization or polymerization see Ziegler-Natta polymerization) or it can be reacted with a variety of electrophiles including halogenating reagents, carbonyls, oxygen, and inorganic salts to produce different organometallic reagents.
Peroxyde de benzoyleLe peroxyde de benzoyle est un composé de la famille des peroxydes organiques aromatiques. Il consiste en deux groupes benzoyle qui font partie de la famille des acyles. Ces deux groupes benzoyle sont reliés par un groupe peroxyde -O-O-. C'est un amorceur radicalaire très utilisé en chimie organique. En Suisse, tous les médicaments à base de peroxyde de benzoyle sont délivrés sans ordonnance. C'est le cas également aux Pays-Bas.
Philosophy of chemistryThe philosophy of chemistry considers the methodology and underlying assumptions of the science of chemistry. It is explored by philosophers, chemists, and philosopher-chemist teams. For much of its history, philosophy of science has been dominated by the philosophy of physics, but the philosophical questions that arise from chemistry have received increasing attention since the latter part of the 20th century. Major philosophical questions arise as soon as one attempts to define chemistry and what it studies.
Commercial classification of chemicalsFollowing the commercial classification of chemicals, chemicals produced by chemical industry can be divided essentially into three broad categories: commodity chemicals: are chemicals produced in large quantities and in general their applications can be traced back to their chemical structure; for this reason, two commodities produced by two different suppliers but with the same chemical structure and purity are almost identical and they can be easily interchanged; they are produced by continuous plant and
