Potassium ethoxide since any transesterification reaction does not result in ester scrambling. Potassium ethoxide is stable, but also both flammable and corrosive. The compound reacts vigorously with water. If the compound comes into contact with damp air, it may lead to the heating and ignition of the solid powder. Keep separated from air, moisture, water, acids, oxidzing agents, and reducing agents. It can also cause severe skin burns. Potassium ethoxide Potassium ethoxide, also known as potassium ethanolate, is an off-white or yellow powder with the chemical formula of CHKO. Potassium ethoxide contains an ethoxide ion, the conjugate base of ethanol, which makes
Inclusion compound is known as a clathrate, not an inclusion complex. In molecular encapsulation, a guest molecule is trapped inside another molecule. Inclusion compound In host-guest chemistry, an inclusion compound is a complex in which one chemical compound (the "host") has a cavity into which "guest" compound can be accommodated. The interaction between the host and guest involves purely van der Waals bonding. The definition of inclusion compounds is very broad, extending to channels formed between molecules in a crystal lattice in which guest molecules can fit. Calixarenes and related formaldehyde-arene condensates are one class of hosts that form inclusion compounds. One
