Talk:Magnesium laureth sulfate

Organometallic? I think not[edit]

Magnesium laureth sulfate is not an organometallic compound, as it has no carbon-metal bond. It is a magnesium salt. Benjah-bmm27 15:49, 28 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yep you're right, thanks for correcting my mistake, is indeed a magnesium salt where an ester is involved.HappyApple 06:00, 1 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong structure?[edit]

Shouldn't there be 12 carbons in the chain rather than 16? --kupirijo (talk) 00:05, 11 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, there are errors in File:Magnesium-laureth-sulfate.png. I have replaced it with a new one. -- Ed (Edgar181) 16:52, 17 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
