[NOO-klee-oe-file].
Hünig's [HYOO-nig's] type of these substances is a poor nucleophile [NOO-klee-oe-file]. A Brook rearrangement uses these substances, such as a Grignard [grih-NARD] or organolithium [or-GA-noe-LIH-thee-um] reagent, as catalysts. These substances tend to hydrolyze triglycerides [trie-GLIH-suh-rides] in a process called saponification, which is why they often feel slippery, and these substances typically taste bitter. Depending on which definition is used, these substances donate an electron pair, accept protons, or yield hydroxide ions. Name these substances that react strongly with acids.
