The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- It contains a double-bonded oxygen atom and an organyl group or hydrogen in the case of formyl group.
- In organic chemistry, the acyl group is usually derived from a carboxylic acid, in which case it has the formula R−C−, where R represents an organyl group or hydrogen.
- Although the term is almost always applied to organic compounds, acyl groups can in principle be derived from other types of acids such as sulfonic acids and phosphonic acids.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Acyl group article was read about 22,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 64 and blocks with 56: each hit it takes is cut by 22 %.
