Ingredient
NICKEL BIS (HYDROXY DIPHENYL METHYL PYRROLIDINO METHYL) PYRIDINEDIYL T-BUTYLISOCYANO PERCHLORATE
Substance information
"Hydroxy..." generally refers to a hydroxy (hydroxyl) group -OH; the functional group of alcohols. "Phenyl" mostly refers to phenol as alcoholic component or generally the phenyl group as aromatic hydrocarbon residue. The methyl group is one of the simplest arrangements of atoms in organic chemistry which can be found as a moiety of numerous organic molecules. The name „methyl“ is derived from methane, the member of the alkane hydrocarbon group with the lowest molecular weight. The methane molecule contains four hydrogen atoms each one bound to a central carbon atom. The methyl group is not an independent chemical entity and contains only three hydrogen atoms, the fourth binding site is generally used for binding to a larger, mainly organic molecule. Like all alkanes, methyl groups exhibit a particularly low chemical reactivity. This ingredient contains pyrrolidine (tetrahydropyrrole) as amine component. This ingredient contains pyridine (azabenzene) as amine component. "T-butyl" or "tert-butyl" mostly refers to tertiary butanol (2-methyl-2-propanol, t-butyl alcohol or t-butanol) as alcoholic component or generally a branched saturated hydrocarbon residue with 4 carbon atoms.
