Talcapone, or 3,4-dihydroxy-4’-methyl-5-nitrobenzophenone, has the following function groups: methyl, alcohol (2 of them), carbonyl, and nitro groups. See the Web Links to the left for a diagram of the structure.
His name starts with 2.
It is under the definition of a Lewis base. Amines are usually considered weak bases, but methylamine is highly nucleophilic. It is a derivative of ammonia with a methyl group replacing a hydrogen atom. Ammonia is also highly basic.
Methyl stearate can be made from hydrogenation of methyl oleate (converting double bond into single bond). Methyl stearate is a solid at room temperature while methyl oleate is liquid.
No, the methyl group is neutral
is methyl orange a pure substance
Methyl-2-methyl butyrate is CH3-CH2-CH(CH3)-COOCH3, it may be prepared by reacting 2-methyl butyric acid with methanol in presence of sulphuric acid.
Yes, it is
The methyl group is -CH3.
Historically, methyl-methyl ester. More modernly, the compound is called methyl methanoate.
The molecular formula for methyl butyrate, also known as methyl butanoate, is C5H10O2.
The "methyl" and "methylene" come from their chemical structures. Something that has "methyl" in its name contains a methyl group - CH3. A common chemical like this is methyl alcohol - CH3OH. The methylene group is CH2. The blue and violet? That's what color they are.
