A solution in which the solvent is water. (4.1)

A ligand in which two linked coordinating atoms are bound to a metal. (Section 23.3)

A form of carbon produced when wood is heated strongly in a deficiency of air. (Section 22.9)

A nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction in which the nucleophile is an ester enolate and the electrophile is an ester.

A substance formed by addition of a proton to a Brønsted–Lowry base. (Section 16.2)

The amount of fissionable material necessary to maintain a nuclear chain reaction. (Section 21.7)

In 13C NMR spectroscopy, a technique that utilizes two rf radiation emitters and provides information regarding the number of protons attached to each carbon atom in a compound.

The attraction between the positive end of one dipole and the negative end of another.

A signal of an NMR spectrum that is shifted toward the left (larger chemical shift) on the chart paper.

The energy needed to remove the most loosely held electron from an atom or molecule.

The practice in which water laden with sand and other materials is pumped at high pressure into rock formations to release natural gas and other petroleum materials. (Section 18.4)

An acetal that is obtained by treating the cyclic hemiacetal form of a monosaccharide with an alcohol under acid-catalyzed conditions.

The energy that an object possesses by virtue of its motion. (Section 5.1)

A cyclic ester.

Asynthetic technique that enables the transformationof a halide into a carboxylic acid with theintroduction of two new carbon atoms.

A series of nuclear reactions that begins with an unstable nucleus and terminates with a stable one; also called a radioactive series. (Section 21.2)

From the Greek meaning nucleus-loving. Any species that can donate a pair of electrons to form a new covalent bond; alternatively, a Lewis base

An amine in which nitrogen is bonded to two carbons and one hydrogen

A substance dissolved in a solvent to form a solution; it is normally the component of a solution present in the smaller amount. (Section 4.1)

A term used to indicate that exactly three alkyl groups are attached directly to a particular position. For example, a tertiary carbocation has three alkyl groups attached directly to the electrophilic carbon atom (C+).
