karboxyler
Karboxyler is a term that has seen occasional use in scientific literature, primarily in discussions related to organic chemistry and biochemistry. It generally refers to a functional group or a compound characterized by the presence of a carboxyl group. The carboxyl group itself is a combination of a carbonyl group (C=O) and a hydroxyl group (OH) attached to the same carbon atom, resulting in the structure -COOH.
Compounds containing the carboxyl group are known as carboxylic acids. These are a class of organic compounds
In a broader sense, "karboxyler" might also encompass derivatives of carboxylic acids, such as esters, amides,
