Figure 6:Reaction Coordinate Diagrams showing reactions with 0, 1 and 2 intermediates: The double-headed arrow shows the first, second and third step in each reaction coordinate diagram. In all three of these reactions the first step is the slow step because the activation energy from the reactants to the transition state is the highest.
The main industrial routes start from aniline via vapor-phase reaction with ethylene glycol in the presence of catalysts: In general, reactions are conducted between 200 and 500 °C. Yields can be as high as 60%. Other precursors to indole include formyltoluidine, 2-ethylaniline, and 2-(2-nitrophenyl)ethanol, all of which undergo cyclizations. [28]
These plots were first introduced in a 1970 paper by R. A. More O’Ferrall to discuss mechanisms of β-eliminations [2] and later adopted by W. P. Jencks in an attempt to clarify the finer details involved in the general acid-base catalysis of reversible addition reactions to carbon electrophiles such as the hydration of carbonyls.
Aniline (from Portuguese anil 'indigo shrub', and -ine indicating a derived substance) [6] is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 NH 2.Consisting of a phenyl group (−C 6 H 5) attached to an amino group (−NH 2), aniline is the simplest aromatic amine.
The collective variables reduce many variables to a lower-dimensional set of variables, that still describe the crucial characteristics of the system. Many collective variables than span the reaction coordinate with a continuous function ξ: ξ(t) = ξ{CV i (t)} with j ∈ N. [2] An example is the complexation of two molecules.
A generic phase diagram with unspecified axes; the invariant point is marked in red, metastable extensions labeled in blue, relevant reactions noted on stable ends of univariant lines. This rule is geometrically sound in the construction of phase diagrams since for every metastable reaction, there must be a phase that is relatively stable. This ...
The reaction mechanism of the Stevens rearrangement is one of the most controversial reaction mechanisms in organic chemistry. [4] Key in the reaction mechanism [5] [6] for the Stevens rearrangement (explained for the nitrogen reaction) is the formation of an ylide after deprotonation of the ammonium salt by a strong base.
N-Ethyl-N-(2-chloroethyl)aniline is the organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 N(Et)(CH 2 CH 2 Cl) (Et = ethyl). It is a low-melting colorless solid that is an alkylating agent . The compound is a precursor to several cationic azo dyes via reaction of the chloroethyl group with tertiary amines or pyridine followed by azo coupling .
