This metal's sulfate catalyzes a reaction in which an alkyne is hydrated to form an enol that quickly tautomerizes into a ketone.
This metal's sulfate catalyzes a reaction in which an alkyne is hydrated to form an enol that quickly tautomerizes into a ketone. Sodium borohydride is used to remove this metal from a hydrocarbon in a reaction that uses this element's acetate to generate alcohols from alkenes. In the patio process, this element is used to isolate silver from its ores. An atom of this metal is bonded to two methyl groups in an extremely toxic compound that poisoned Karen Wetterhahn when she was using the 199 isotope of this element in NMR spectroscopy. Joseph Priestly first isolated oxygen by heating an oxide of this metal, which is extracted from the ore cinnabar. For 10 points, name this transition metal that is liquid at room temperature.
