AI Thread Summary
The discussion focuses on identifying the proper chemical names for two compounds presented in an image. One participant suggests using ChemSketch or chemspider.com for assistance. The second compound is identified as the hydrazone of 2-hydroxy-1-naphthalenecarboxaldehyde, also referred to as 2-hydroxy-1-naphthalenecarboxaldehyde hydrazone or 1-hydrazonomethyl-2-naphthol. There is a mention of a potential biomolecular pathway involving gamma secretase, with speculation that the second compound may result from hydrolysis of the first compound. The importance of specifying the isomer (E or Z) for accurate naming is also highlighted.

Could someone give the proper chemical names of the attached two compounds.
Lots of thanks in advance.

Have you tried ChemSketch? Or chemspider.com?
 
The second structure looks like the hydrazone of 2-hydroxy-1-napthalenecarboxaldehyde or 2-hydroxy-1-napthalenecarboxaldehyde hydrazone

Maybe a little...? I don't see very much similarity...

Based on the picture, I'm thinking that these are part of a biomolecular pathway involving gamma secretase, right? On a quick inspection (it's been a while since I did any biochem), it looks like your second compound might be the result of hydrolysis occurring in the first compound between the right-most nitrogen in the picture and the carbon to the right of it.

You may want to look at various products, substrates, etc. of gamma secretase reactions; it is likely that your answer lies there.
 
For the second structure, chemspider.com loads the correct structure with the input name of 2-hydroxy-1-napthalenecarboxaldehyde hydrazone but it is also known as 1-hydrazonomethyl-2-naphthol. Your picture doesn't indicate which isomer, E or Z, it should be but if you were to include that, the name would also be 1-[(EorZ)-hydrazonomethyl]-2-naphthol.
 
Lots of thanks.
 
It seems like a simple enough question: what is the solubility of epsom salt in water at 20°C? A graph or table showing how it varies with temperature would be a bonus. But upon searching the internet I have been unable to determine this with confidence. Wikipedia gives the value of 113g/100ml. But other sources disagree and I can't find a definitive source for the information. I even asked chatgpt but it couldn't be sure either. I thought, naively, that this would be easy to look up without...
I was introduced to the Octet Rule recently and make me wonder, why does 8 valence electrons or a full p orbital always make an element inert? What is so special with a full p orbital? Like take Calcium for an example, its outer orbital is filled but its only the s orbital thats filled so its still reactive not so much as the Alkaline metals but still pretty reactive. Can someone explain it to me? Thanks!!
