| 31. | Both pyrimidines and purines resemble pyridine and are thus weak bases and relatively unreactive towards electrophilic aromatic substitution.
|
| 32. | In fact, most alkanes are unreactive except in extreme conditions, such as combustion or strong sunlight.
|
| 33. | For example, copper is a rather unreactive metal, and has no reaction with concentrated hydrochloric acid.
|
| 34. | Additionally, in dilute neutral solutions they tend to be deprotonated anions ( and thus unreactive as electrophiles ).
|
| 35. | The Simmons-Smith reaction adds to alkenes while the Buchner ring expansion allows addition to typically unreactive arenes.
|
| 36. | Noble gasses are particularly useful for these experiments because they are easy to handle, unreactive and relatively inexpensive.
|
| 37. | Then soaking in a benzotriazole ( BTA ) ethanol solution to chelate the copper and make it unreactive.
|
| 38. | Generally, amino acid residues are unreactive toward nucleophiles, but the dehydroamino acids are exceptions to this pattern.
|
| 39. | Although the noble gases are generally unreactive elements, many such compounds have been observed, particularly involving the element xenon.
|
| 40. | I've been reading about how one can make a compound of gold and xenon, two apparently unreactive elements.
