isooksyryhmään
Isooksyryhmään is a Finnish term that translates to "isoxy group" in English. It refers to a functional group in organic chemistry characterized by an oxygen atom bonded to a carbon atom and an adjacent oxygen atom, which is in turn bonded to another carbon atom. The general structure can be represented as R-O-O-R', where R and R' are organic substituents. This specific arrangement of atoms is known as a peroxide linkage.
Peroxides, and thus compounds containing the isooksyryhmään, are known for their reactivity. The oxygen-oxygen single bond
