-The mesomeric form of succimer is the active chelating form that is used to chelate trivalent metals through its COOH groups. 2-Anions with large radius particularly those having less than two negative charge are more easily polarized by the small size cations while those of ≥1 charge like sulfide S-2 and selenium Se-2 are much harder to be polarized 3-Covalent bond is encountered in case of NaCl and KBr while ionic bond is encountered with BeCl2 and BF3
Reactions of Ethers
Ethers (R-O-R’) are compounds formed by replacing hydrogen atoms of an alcohol (R-OH compound) or a phenol (C6H5OH) by an aryl/ acyl group (functional group after removing single hydrogen from an aromatic ring). In this section, reaction, preparation and behavior of ethers are discussed in the context of organic chemistry.
Epoxides
Epoxides are a special class of cyclic ethers which are an important functional group in organic chemistry and generate reactive centers due to their unusual high reactivity. Due to their high reactivity, epoxides are considered to be toxic and mutagenic.
Williamson Ether Synthesis
An organic reaction in which an organohalide and a deprotonated alcohol forms ether is known as Williamson ether synthesis. Alexander Williamson developed the Williamson ether synthesis in 1850. The formation of ether in this synthesis is an SN2 reaction.
