  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "Organic compounds containing a pentavalent arsenic atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom and single-bonded to three organic substituents. They are characterized by the general structure R3As=O, where R represents an organic group. These compounds are polar and can act as ligands in coordination chemistry, similar to phosphine oxides.",
