Why can this shit dissolve anything?

What were you expecting?

>>7985869
What are some other chemicals that have similar solvent properties

Also

>non polar
How so?

>>7985869

Wtf makes you think it's non-polar...

>>7985981

It's not, he's a complete fucking idiot, I mean one look at the molecule tells you it's polar.

>>7985864
It's a good h-bond acceptor and at the same time relatively non-polar.
Although I don't think it dissolves table sugar

>>7985869
Lol.

>strong bonds

Yes, covalent bonds are strong! That has nothing to do with its ability as a solvent

>non polar

The carbonyl is polarized, partially. The shift in electron density due to the differences in electronegativity does allow for some fairly strong intermolecular dipole dipole bonding and interactions with other polar and partially polar compounds. Acetone is minisicible in water for example.

the oxygen will pull electrons away from the carbon making it electrophilic in character and thus ripe for all sorts of chemistry with lustful nucleophiles and pedophiles

>>7985864
Because it's a meme solvent.

>>7986027
What are some non-meme 4chan approved solvents?

>>7986035
diethyl ether,

because there is no better start to a day in the lab than having a little taking a good sniff of ether :^)

>>7986035
acetonitrile, 1,2-dimethoxy-ethane, dimethyl-formamide, 1,4-dioxane, hexamethylphosphoramide, triethyl amine, xylenes

The meme solvents include:
>acetone
>acetic anhydride
>butanols
>t-butyl alcohol
>carbon tetrachloride
>chloroform
>dichloromethane
>ethanol
>ethylene (and diethylene) glycol
>ether
>ethyl acetate
>methanol
>methylamine
>methylene chloride
>nitromethane
>pentane
>petrol ether
>propanols
>pyrridine
>toluene
>water

Tetrahydrofuran may or may not be a meme, I'm not sure.

>>7986055
dimethyl sulfoxide is also a non-meme solvent

>>7986045
Possibly the biggest meme solvent of them all.

>>7986026

>pedophiles
kek'd violently

>>7986057
DMSO is 100% meme grade.

>>7986055

someone copy pasted the solvents from their undergrad ochem lab modules

Are you copy pasting your undergrad material, anon?

>>7986834
where in the hell do you see a carboxyl group, if you're referring to the carbon then yeah

dat sp2

>>7986837
he must have meant methane tetrchloride and dichloromethane, unless he actually did mean that then fuck him

meme solvents? gtfo undergrad

>>7986864
I'm shit at nomenclature, but that sp2 orbital nontheless makes my dick hard.

can't wait to TA your asses this summer and crack the fucking whip
you know literally nothing, orgo I and II is literally fucking nothing
>REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE

My vote is DMSO. As another anon has stated it "is meme worthy". Just a factoid DMSO is used to pass drugs (medication) into a patient through the skin. There are other uses just dropping one.
