Functional Group Addition, frames

A further example is the ready assignment of an olefinic resonance which appears in the spectrum of ruberoside G in addition to the H-ll signal at 5.3 ppm, common to asterosaponins. Its low-field chemical shift of 6.2 ppm (solid frame in Figure 5.1.4, and Figure 5.1.5) indicates the presence of a double bond in the steroidal side-chain in proximity to a deshielding functional group such as a carbonyl. 

As a rule, the formation of macromolecular metallocomplexes include a special design of macroligand, their functional groups, and MX with its own and frame ligands, which are retained in the inner coordination sphere of metal after immobilization. In addition to the halides, carbonyls, nitrosyls, phosphines, acetylacetonates and CH3COO-, pyridine and Dipy can also be used as frame ligands [35]. 

Some additives used in plastics are surfactants but are not used primarily for their surface or interfacial activity. Rather they contain functional groups that, because of their chemical nature, are polar but they also contain non-polar groups, such as hydrocarbon chains, in order to provide compatibihty with the polymer. Good examples are the heat stabilizers used in plastics such as PVC to prevent thermal degradation. Typical additives used for this purpose are soaps (metal salts of alkyl carboxylates) or metal salts of other organic acids such as phenols. The metal cations used most commonly are tin, calcium, barium, zinc and cadmium. Lead salts are also used in electrical cables, pipes and window frames. Tin salts are especially useful for stabilizing clear, rigid PVC bottles. 

Many of the electrochemically generated radical ions contain, in addition to the hydrocarbon or heterocyclic frame, reactive functional groups, often as a part of a conjugated system, which substantially affect the stability of the radical ions and also their electron-density distribution. Such radical ions can therefore be treated as a separate group. 

Polymer A compound framed by the reaction of simple molecules having functional groups which permit their combination to proceed to higher molecular weights under suitable conditions. Polymers may be formed by polymerization (addition polymers) or polycondensation (condensation polymers). When two or more different monomers are involved, the product is a copolymer.
