CPI Flashcards
(30 cards)
is the introduction of an alkyl group into an organic compound by substitution or addition
Alkylation
is the process of forming amines by the action of ammonia
Amination
precursor to synthetic fiber
nylon 6,6
adiponitrile
is an industrial process for the production of nitriles using ammonia and oxygen.
The usual substrates are alkenes
Ammonoxidation
important in synthetic fiber: polyacrylonitrile
has a vinyl group bound to a nitrile group,
also present in a moon of Saturn (Titan)- second largest moon in the Solar system next to Jupiter’s Ganymede
Saturn has 62 moons, 53 are named 13 are larger than 50 km diameter
acrylonitrile
is also used to mean a thermal treatment process in the absence or limited supply of air or oxygen applied to ores and other solid materials to bring about a thermal decomposition.
Calcination
Substance formed when Clinker+gypsum+limestone
Cement
reactions that introduce carbon monoxide into organic and inorganic substrates.
Carbonylation
is a chemical reaction in which a carboxylic acid group is produced by treating a substrate with carbon dioxide
Carboxylation
is a reaction in which two molecules combine to form a single molecule.
Condensation
breaking of long hydrocarbon molecules into smaller ones
Another term: Destructive distillation
Cracking
cyanation which allows for the formation of benzonitriles (Traugott Sandmeyer)
Sandmeyer reaction
also known as the cyanide process or the MacArthur-Forrest process) is a hydrometallurgical technique for extracting gold from low-grade ore by converting the gold to a water-soluble coordination complex. It is the most commonly used leaching process for gold extraction.
Gold cyanidation
the chemical breakdown of a compound due to reaction with water.
hydrolysis
is a chemical process that introduces a hydroxyl group (-OH) into an organic compound.
hydroxylation
The process of converting a monomer or a mixture of monomers into an oligomer
Oligomerization
Small molecules react with each other to form larger structural units while releasing smaller molecules as a byproduct, such as water or methanol.
condensation polymerization
Manufacture of paper from pulp using Foudrinier machine
Kraft Process
Recovery of H2 from water gas (CO reacts with steam to form CO and H2)
Bosch Process
Recovery of copper from sulfide ores using Cu & Na or CaCl2 soln
Then electrolyzing the resulting CuCl2 liquor
Hoepener Process
CuS or FeS fused and blown with air to burn out sulfur content
Holloway Process
Formation of a rust resistant coating on iron;
base metal by oxidation with steam
Barff Process
Process for reduction of Lead ores
Carinthian Process
Method of recovering gold and silver from their ores by treatment with Cyanides
Cyanidation Process
