Look up: methoxy-

  1. Methoxy
    In chemistry (particularly organic chemistry), `methoxy` refers to the functional group consisting of a methyl group bound to oxygen. It has the formula: :–O–CH3 The word is used in organic nomenclature usually to describe an ether. It is also an electron-donating group and can cause an organic compound to become less acidic. Examples of methoxy ethers are methoxyethane and methoxypropane. Category:Functional groups

  2. Methoxy arachidonyl fluorophosphonate
    `Methoxy arachidonyl fluorophosphonate`, commonly referred as `MAFP`, is an irreversible active site-directed enzyme inhibitor that inhibits nearly all serine hydrolases and serine proteases. It inhibits phospholipase A2 and fatty acid amide hydrolase with special potency, displaying IC50 values in the low-nanomolar range. Category:Inhibitors

    `Methoxychlor` is a synthetic organochlorine used as an insecticide. It is applied to protect crops, ornamentals, livestock, and pets against fleas, mosquitoes, cockroaches, and other insects. It has been used to some degree as a replacement for DDT as it is faster metabolized and does not lead to bioaccumulation. The amount of methoxychlor in the environment is seasonal due to its periodic utilization in farming and foresting. As a powder it is...

  10. Methoxyethane
    `Methoxyethane`, also known as `methyl ethyl ether`, is a colorless gaseous ether with a medicine-like odor. It is water soluble, heavier than air and has the formula CH3OC2H5. Methoxyethane is an isomer of propanol. It is extremely flammable and will easily ignite, and its inhalation may cause asphyxiation or dizzyness. As a Lewis base, it can react with Lewis acids to form salts and reacts violently with oxidizing agents.

  13. Methoxyflurane
    `Methoxyflurane` (C3H4Cl2F2O) is an inhalational anaesthetic used in the 1960s, but withdrawn because of detrimental effects on the kidneys. This was due to fluoride ions being produced by its metabolism in the kidney. Its minimum alveolar concentration (MAC) is 0.2, hence it is extremely potent. It has a high lipid solubility (oil:gas coefficient around 950) giving it a very slow onset/offset, thus undesirable for anesthetic purposes. Methoxyfl...

  25. Methoxypropane
    `Methoxypropane`, or `methyl propyl ether`, is an ether once used as a general anaesthetic. It is a clear colorless flammable liquid with a boiling point of 38.8 ðC. Marketed under the trade names Metopryl and Neothyl, methoxypropane was used as an alternative to diethyl ether because of its greater potency. Its use as an anaesthetic has since been supplanted by modern halogenated ethers which are much less flammable.

23 November 2009

This day in history:
At sixteen minutes past five on 23rd November 1963, a British television institution was born. Doctor Who would go on to become the longest-running science-fiction programme in the world, eventually spawning twenty six seasons of adventures from 1963 to 1989. In total, eight actors have played the part of Gallifrey's most famous Time Lord. From the very first - William Hartnell in 1963 - to the very last - Paul McGann, in the 1996 TV Movie - the Doctor has wandered through time and space in his trusty time machine, an old type-40 TARDIS (Time and Relative Dimensions in Space). Although appearing to be nothing more than a battered blue police box, it is in fact vastly bigger on the inside than on the outside, and always departs with its familiar wheezing, groaning sound. read more
