About alkylnitrites as a laboratory reagent their use in medicine and as a recreational drug Poppers File Nitrite ester 2D.png right 200px alkylnitritesAlkylnitrites are a group of chemical compound s based upon the molecular structure R ONO . Formally they are alkyl ester s of nitrous acid . They are distinct from nitro compound s R NO sub 2 sub . The first few members of the series are Volatility chemistry volatile liquids methyl nitrite and ethyl nitrite are gaseous at room temperature and pressure. The compounds have a distinctive fruity odor. Another frequently encountered nitrite is amyl nitrite 3 methylbutyl nitrite . Alkylnitrites were initially, and largely still are used as medication s and chemical reagent s, a practice which began in the late 19th century. In their use as medicine, are often inhaled for relief of angina and other heart related symptoms of disease. However when referred to as poppers , alkylnitrites represent recreational drug s. Synthesis Organic nitrites are prepared from alcohol s and sodium nitrite in sulfuric acid solution . They decompose slowly on standing, the decomposition products being oxide s of nitrogen , water , the alcohol, and polymerization products of the aldehyde . ref n butyl nitrite Organic Syntheses , Coll.

Orphan date February 2009 merge organophosphates date February 2011 Alkyl phosphates belong to a group of organic compound s called organophosphorus compounds . They are ester s of phosphoric acid H sub 3 sub PO sub 4 sub and corresponding alcohol . For example, the formula of methyl phosphate is CH sub 3 sub H sub 2 sub PO sub 4 sub , dimethyl phosphate CH sub 3 sub sub 2 sub HPO sub 4 sub and trimethyl phosphate CH sub 3 sub sub 3 sub PO sub 4 sub . Alkyl phosphates are widely distributed in nature, and form the basis of most biological processes. For example, high energy metabolites such as Adenosine triphosphate ATP and Phosphoenolpyruvate PEP are alkyl phosphates, as are nucleic acids such as DNA and RNA . Alkyl phosphates are also important medicinally, for example the HIV drug Zidovudine AZT is inactive until it becomes an alkyl phosphate in vivo .

Unreferenced date December 2009 Image Alkyl cycloalkane.png thumb Methylcyclopropane , the simplest alkyl cycloalkane. Alkyl cycloalkanes are chemical compound s with an alkyl group with a single ring of carbon s to which hydrogen s are attached according to the formula C sub n sub H sub 2n sub . They are named analogously to their normal alkane counterpart of the same carbon count methylcyclopropane , methylcyclobutane , methylcyclopentane , methylcyclohexane , etc. Methylcycloalkanes are classed into compounds with small, normal and bigger cycloalkanes, where cyclopropane and cyclobutane are the small ones, cyclopentane , cyclohexane , cycloheptane are the normal ones and the rest are the bigger ones. TOC Nomenclature The naming of polycyclic alkanes is more complex, with the base name indicating the number of carbons in the ring system, a prefix indicating the number of rings e.g., bicyclo , and a numeric prefix before that indicating the number of carbons in each part of each ring, exclusive of vertices. For instance, a bicyclooctane which consists of a six member ring and a four member ring, which share two adjacent carbon atoms which form a shared edge, is 4.2.0 bicyclooctane. That part of the six member ring, exclusive of the shared edge has 4 carbons. That part of the four member ring, exclusive of the shared edge, has 2 carbons. The edge itself, exclusive of the two vertices that define it, has 0 carbons. Reactions The normal and the bigger alkylcycloalkanes are very stable like alkanes and their reactions cf. radicalic chain reactions are like alkanes. The small alkylcycloalkanes particularly alkylcyclopropane has a lower stability due to the Baeyer tension . They react similar to alkenes , though they don t react with the EA cf. electrophilic addition , but with the SN2 cf. nucleophilic substitution reaction mechanism. These reactions are both ring opening reactions ... alkyl cycloalkanes is methylcyclopropane . DEFAULTSORT Alkyl Cycloalkane Category Functional groups ... more details

Unreferenced date November 2006 Jerry Mills February 26, 1951 January 28, 1993 was a gay cartoonist, noted particularly for his creation of the Poppers comic strip. The strip told of the adventures of Billy, a West Hollywood muscleboy, and his sidekick Yves based on Mills , a big hearted nebbish who offered good advice and caution usually unheeded for his glamorous friend. Yves always went along for the ride with Billy, commenting on the action, a function he took over from a witty crab louse that lived on Billy s pubic hair, when it was phased out after the first few strips. In the early 1980s Mills worked in the subscriptions department of In Touch for Men , an adult magazine targeted at the gay male community. John Calendo, editor at the time, encouraged Mills to write a regular comic strip, to add variety to the magazine s content. The result, Poppers , began in April 1982. The title referred to poppers , alkyl nitrites which were commonly used in the gay community. By the mid 80s the strip was also being published in translation in Gai Pied Hebdo , a French language gay magazine, and in the Japanese magazine Barazoko . Reprints of the strip also appeared sporadically in Gay Comix under the editorship of Howard Cruse , Robert Triptow , and Andy Mangels . When Mills moved to the classifieds department of Advocate Men , the Poppers strip followed him, and was published sporadically. By the beginning of the 1990s Mills health was deteriorating, as he developed complications associated with HIV infection, and in his final few years he worked less and less. He did, however, attend ACT UP demonstrations in Los Angeles and design posters for the off shoot organization Queer Nation , concerned with gay visibility. Mills died of his illness in January 1993, survived by his partner Sal Lucarello. As well as writing Poppers , Mills also created ad hoc cartoons, and wrote an eight page history of gays in comics for the first Meatmen anthology. His predominant contribution t ... more details
