  • Bromine difluoride cation Polarity
    Bromine difluoride cation Polarity Bromine difluoride cation Polarity Bromine difluoride cation (CAS 12216-93-4) is a molecular ion, for which "polar / nonpolar" is the wrong question. VSEPR gives 2 bonding domains and 2 lone pairs — asymmetric, so the dipoles do not cancel.
  • Borylene Polarity
    Borylene Polarity Borylene Polarity Borylene (CAS 12353-52-5) is polar. It is polar by symmetry, but no dipole magnitude is quoted. Dipole moment Non-zero; no magnitude is quoted because the method has not been benchmarked for B-containing species; dielectric constant no value quoted.
  • Lactic acid Polarity
    Lactic acid Polarity Lactic acid Polarity Lactic acid (CAS 50-21-5) is polar. C3H6O3 has a calculated dipole of about 2.09 D, which follows from its bent oxygen centre Snyder polarity index Not conventionally assigned; XlogP3-AA -0.55 (Crippen calculated, RDKit).
  • Ibuprofen Polarity
    Ibuprofen Polarity Ibuprofen Polarity Ibuprofen (CAS 15687-27-1) is polar. C13H18O2 has a calculated dipole of about 1.68 D, which follows from its bent oxygen centre Snyder polarity index Not conventionally assigned; XlogP3-AA 3.07 (Crippen calculated, RDKit).
  • Dibromoiodate Polarity
    Dibromoiodate Polarity Dibromoiodate Polarity Dibromoiodate (CAS 17881-70-4) is a molecular ion, for which "polar / nonpolar" is the wrong question. Its polarity follows from structure and symmetry rather than from a calculated dipole. Covers geometry, comparison data, QC strategy and B2B.
  • Heptane Polarity
    Heptane Polarity Heptane Polarity Heptane (CAS 142-82-5) is nonpolar. It is nonpolar by symmetry, but no dipole magnitude is quoted. Snyder polarity index Not conventionally assigned; XlogP3-AA 2.98 (Crippen calculated, RDKit). Covers geometry, comparison data, QC strategy and B2B.
  • Methylidynephosphane Polarity
    Methylidynephosphane Polarity Methylidynephosphane Polarity Methylidynephosphane (CAS 1482-55-9) is polar. It is polar by symmetry, but no dipole magnitude is quoted. Snyder polarity index Not conventionally assigned; XlogP3-AA 0.99 (Crippen calculated, RDKit).
  • Bromous acid Polarity
    Bromous acid Polarity Bromous acid Polarity Bromous acid (CAS 37691-27-3) is polar. It is polar by symmetry, but no dipole magnitude is quoted. Snyder polarity index Not conventionally assigned; XlogP3-AA -1.75 (Crippen calculated, RDKit). Covers geometry, comparison data, QC strategy and B2B.
  • Iron(III) oxide Polarity
    Iron(III) oxide Polarity Iron(III) oxide Polarity Iron(III) oxide (CAS 1309-37-1) is polar. It is polar by symmetry, but no dipole magnitude is quoted. Snyder polarity index Not conventionally assigned; XlogP3-AA Not computed (Crippen parameters do not cover every element here).
  • Cyclohexanone Polarity
    Cyclohexanone Polarity Cyclohexanone Polarity Cyclohexanone (CAS 108-94-1) is polar. C6H10O has a calculated dipole of about 3.06 D, which follows from its trigonal planar carbon centre Snyder polarity index Not conventionally assigned; XlogP3-AA 1.52 (Crippen calculated, RDKit).
