Unreferenced date December 2009 In chemistry, hydrochlorides are salt chemistry salt s resulting, or regarded as resulting, from the reaction of hydrochloric acid with an organic Base chemistry base mostly amine s . This is also known as muriate , derived from hydrochloric acid s other name muriatic acid. For example, reaction of pyridine C sub 5 sub H sub 5 sub N with hydrochloric acid HCl yields pyridine hydrochloride C sub 5 sub H sub 5 sub N HCl . Even though this style of formula is often used for denoting the hydrochlorides, the dot incorrectly implies that the two molecules are weakly bonded together rather, what is present is the salt C sub 5 sub H sub 5 sub NH sup sup   Cl sup sup with the correct chemical name pyridinium pyridinium chloride . Hydrochloric salts are most often referred to by using the name of the base, then simply tagging on hydrochloride or HCl . For example, while crack cocaine is the Free base chemistry freebase of cocaine, the salt form is often referred to as cocaine HCl. Uses Converting insoluble amines into hydrochlorides is a common way to make them Solubility water and acid soluble . This is particularly desirable for substances used in medications. Many pharmaceutical substances are prepared as hydrochlorides so that they may be quickly released in the gastrointestinal tract the body usually absorbs a hydrochloride within fifteen or thirty minutes. Very often hydrochlorides of amines have longer shelf lives than their respective free bases. The formula for hydrochloric acid is HCl.

Volatilization is much less extensive in soil than water, owing to sorption of the compounds to soil clays and organic matter. ref Sims, G. K. and L.E. Sommers. 1985. Degradation of pyridine derivatives in soil. J. Environmental Quality. 14 580 584. ref Picoline degradation appears to be mediated primarily by bacteria, with the majority of isolates belonging to the Actinobacteria. 3 Methylpyridine degrades more slowly than the other two isomers, likely due to the impact of resonance in the heterocyclic ring. Like most simple pyridine derivatives, the picolines contain more nitrogen than is needed for growth of microorganisms, and excess nitrogen is generally excreted to the environment as ammonium during the degradation process. ref Sims, G.

Image E1cB.svg right frame The E1cB reaction mechanism. The E1cB elimination reaction is a special type of elimination reaction in organic chemistry . This reaction mechanism explains the formation of alkene s from mostly alkyl halide s through a carbanion intermediate given specified reaction conditions and specified substrates. The abbreviation stands for E limination U nimolecular c onjugate B ase. The reaction takes place around a orbital hybridization sp sup 3 sup sp sup 3 sup carbon to carbon covalent bond with an acidic hydrogen atom substituent and a leaving group . This leaving group can be a halide or a sulfonic acid ester such as a tosyl group. A strong base chemistry base abstracts the proton generating a carbanion . The electron pair then expels the leaving group and the double bond is formed. When the first step to the carbanion is slow and the second step fast the reaction is irreversible and named E1cB sub i sub . When the first step is fast and the leaving group is expelled reversibly then the reaction mechanism is E1cB sub r sub . In the E1cB sub anion sub variation the carbanion is especially stable with a rapid first step and a slow second step. br Simply, the nucleophilicity of the leaving group and the stability of the carbanion determine whether or not the reaction is reversible.
