Steroids. Steroids are basically lipids that are naturally occurring. Structure of Steroids: The parent nucleus of steroids has consisted of four rings. Three rings are six-membered and the fourth one …

Hydrogen Bonding Definition. A hydrogen bond is not a true bond but a strong form of dipole-dipole interaction. A hydrogen atom can participate in hydrogen bonding if it is bonded …

Disaccharides. A molecule of a disaccharides consists of two monosaccharide units linked together in the form of an acetal (a glycosidic linkage). On hydrolysis, it yields these units. A large number …

Hyperconjugation. Hyperconjugation the systems of delocalized electrons discussed so far involved only the interactions of electrons. The delocalization of π electrons is also possible with σ electrons. For compounds which have …

Inductive Effect. It has been pointed out that when there is a covalent bond between two unlike atoms, the bonding electron pair is nearer to the more electronegative atom. The …

Dipole Moment. A molecule containing a polar bond has a positive and a negative end and is called a dipole. As there is a difference in charge, separated by a …

Beta Particle. Beta particles are fast-flying particles. They can be as carrying an electric charge and protonic. The speed movement of beta particles is approximately equal to that of light. …

Azelaic acid. Azelaic acid is an organic compound with the formula HOOC(CH2)7COOH. Azelaic acid is acid, which is of an organic nature hydrocarbon skeleton construction. Saturated acid can participate in substitution reactions, …
