Acetone

Acetone (2-propanone or dimethyl ketone) is an organic compound with the formula.

Asparagopsis taxiformis

Asparagopsis taxiformis (red sea plume or limu kohu), formerly A. sanfordiana, is a species of red algae, with cosmopolitan distribution in tropical to warm temperate waters.

Bromoform

Bromoform is an organic compound with the chemical formula.

See Bromoacetone and Bromoform

A chemical formula is a way of presenting information about the chemical proportions of atoms that constitute a particular chemical compound or molecule, using chemical element symbols, numbers, and sometimes also other symbols, such as parentheses, dashes, brackets, commas and plus (+) and minus (−) signs.

See Bromoacetone and Chemical formula

Chemical weapon

A chemical weapon (CW) is a specialized munition that uses chemicals formulated to inflict death or harm on humans.

See Bromoacetone and Chemical weapon

Chemical weapons in World War I

The use of toxic chemicals as weapons dates back thousands of years, but the first large-scale use of chemical weapons was during World War I. They were primarily used to demoralize, injure, and kill entrenched defenders, against whom the indiscriminate and generally very slow-moving or static nature of gas clouds would be most effective. Bromoacetone and chemical weapons in World War I are World War I chemical weapons.

Chloroacetone

Chloroacetone is a chemical compound with the formula. Bromoacetone and Chloroacetone are ketones, lachrymatory agents and World War I chemical weapons.

Electrophilic substitution

Electrophilic substitution reactions are chemical reactions in which an electrophile displaces a functional group in a compound, which is typically, but not always, aromatic.

See Bromoacetone and Electrophilic substitution

Enol

In organic chemistry, alkenols (shortened to enols) are a type of reactive structure or intermediate in organic chemistry that is represented as an alkene (olefin) with a hydroxyl group attached to one end of the alkene double bond.

See Bromoacetone and Enol

Essential oil

An essential oil is a concentrated hydrophobic liquid containing volatile (easily evaporated at normal temperatures) chemical compounds from plants.

See Bromoacetone and Essential oil

Fluoroacetone

Fluoroacetone is an organofluorine compound with the chemical formula. Bromoacetone and Fluoroacetone are ketones and lachrymatory agents.

See Bromoacetone and Fluoroacetone

Haloform reaction

In chemistry, the haloform reaction is a chemical reaction in which a haloform (where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of an acetyl group (where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl group), in the presence of a base.

Hawaiian Islands

The Hawaiian Islands (Hawaiian: Mokupuni Hawai‘i) are an archipelago of eight major volcanic islands, several atolls, and numerous smaller islets in the North Pacific Ocean, extending some from the island of Hawaiʻi in the south to northernmost Kure Atoll.

Organic compound

Some chemical authorities define an organic compound as a chemical compound that contains a carbon–hydrogen or carbon–carbon bond; others consider an organic compound to be any chemical compound that contains carbon.

Organic synthesis

Organic synthesis is a branch of chemical synthesis concerned with the construction of organic compounds.

Tear gas

Tear gas, also known as a lachrymatory agent or lachrymator, sometimes colloquially known as "mace" after the early commercial self-defense spray, is a chemical weapon that stimulates the nerves of the lacrimal gland in the eye to produce tears. Bromoacetone and tear gas are lachrymatory agents.

See Bromoacetone and Tear gas

Thioacetone

Thioacetone is an organosulfur compound belonging to the -thione group called thioketones with a chemical formula (CH3)2CS.

See Bromoacetone and Thioacetone

White Cross (chemical warfare)

White Cross (Weiẞkreuz) is a World War I chemical warfare agent consisting of one or more lachrymatory agents: bromoacetone (BA), bromobenzyl cyanide (Camite), bromomethyl ethyl ketone (homomartonite, Bn-stoff), chloroacetone (Tonite, A-stoff), ethyl bromoacetate, and/or xylyl bromide. Bromoacetone and White Cross (chemical warfare) are lachrymatory agents and World War I chemical weapons.
