Classical groups

The number of outermost electrons is crucial to the chemical bonding of the atom. (See Chap. 5.) For main group elements, the number of outermost electrons is equal to the classical group number, except that it is 2 for helium and 8 for the other group 0 (18) elements. (It is equal to the modern group number minus 10 except for helium and the first two groups.)...

Red Lake C. This pigment tends to be a warm or yellow-shade red. Like many other reds in the classical group, red lake C was, and is, primarily an ink pigment. However, for low-cost products this pigment is very useful in plastic systems. Rela-... 

The periodic table is a classification scheme for elements that is tremendously useful in learning the properties of the elements. It consists of seven periods and 16 classical groups, or families (18 in a more modem but less useful version). Several of the groups have names, which beginning students need to leam. The elements are separated into metals and nonmetals on the periodic table. They are also subdivided into main group elements, transition elements, and inner transition elements. (Section 1.5)...

The charge on every monatomic anion (except H ) is equal to the classical group number of the element minus 8. The number of added electrons is the absolute value of that difference. 

The alkali metals, the alkaline earth metals, the group IIIB metals, aluminum, zinc, cadmium, and silver have ions with charges equal to their classical group numbers, but only in their compounds When the elements are uncombined, they do not form ions, and the charge on each atom is zero. 

All monatomic anions are named by changing the ending of the element s name to -ide. For example, I, H, and are called iodide ion, hydride ion, and oxide ion, respectively. (The names of a few special anions also end in -ide among the most important are hydroxide and cyanide ions, listed in Table 6.4.) The charge on any monatomic anion is constant and, except for that on H , is equal to the classical group number minus 8 (see Figure 5.11). 

The maximum oxidation number for most elements is equal to the classical group number of the element. 

Oxidation number is a periodic property. For example, for most elements the maximum oxidation number is equal to the classical group number, and the minimum oxidation number for nonmetals other than hydrogen is the group number minus 8. 

The metals of parts (a) and (b) have charges equal to their classical group numbers. For parts (c) and (d), each monatomic anion has a charge equal to its classical group number minus 8 (or the modem group number minus 18).

For a-amino protection, the urethane-type protecting groups derived from secondary alcohols do not offer improved properties compared to those of more classical groups derived from primary alcohols. The main advantage possibly derived from the use of this type of urethane-derived N -derivative is the increased solubihty, e.g. such as that reported for the 2-adamantyloxycarbonyl derivatives (see Section... 

The classical group consists of dibenzopyran derivatives that are either cannabis-derived compounds (phytocannabinoids) or their synthetic analogues. Notable examples are the phytocannabinoids zl -THC,2l -THC and cannabinol (Fig. 1), and thesynthetic cannabinoids, 11-hydroxy-zl -THC-dimethylheptyl (HU-210), JWH-133, L-759633, L-759656, L-nantradol and desacetyl-L-nantradol (Figs. 4 and 5).
