WHAT DOES OXONIUM ION MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Oxonium ion

In chemistry, an oxonium ion is any oxygen cation with three bonds. The simplest oxonium ion is the hydronium ion H3O+. Another class of oxonium ions frequently encountered in organic chemistry is the oxocarbenium ions, obtained by protonation or alkylation of a carbonyl group e.g. R-C=O+-R' which forms a resonance structure with the fully fledged carbocation R-C+-O-R' and is therefore especially stable: Stable alkyloxonium salts exist; they are extensively used as alkylating agents. For example, triethyloxonium tetrafluoroborate is a white crystalline solid. It is a powerful ethylating agent. It can be used, for example, to produce ethyl esters when the conditions of traditional Fischer esterification are unsuitable. Other hydrocarbon oxonium ions are formed by protonation or alkylation of alcohols or ethers. In acidic media, the oxonium functional group produced by protonating an alcohol can be a leaving group in the E2 elimination reaction, because when it receives an electron, it becomes a water molecule. The product is an alkene. Extreme acidity, heat and dehydrating conditions are usually required.

Definition of oxonium ion in the English dictionary

The definition of oxonium ion in the dictionary is a positive ion produced from certain organic ethers or alcohols by adding a proton to the oxygen atom.
