An example of a substitution reaction taking place by a so-called borderline mechanism as originally studied by Hughes and Ingold [6] is the reaction of 1-phenylethyl chloride with sodium methoxide in methanol. The reaction rate is found to the sum of S N 1 and S N 2 components with 61% (3,5 M, 70 °C) taking place by the latter.
Many electrophiles are chiral and optically stable. Typically chiral electrophiles are also optically pure. One such reagent is the fructose-derived organocatalyst used in the Shi epoxidation. [11] The catalyst can accomplish highly enantioselective epoxidations of trans-disubstituted and trisubstituted alkenes.
Dopamine receptors are a class of G protein-coupled receptors that are prominent in the vertebrate central nervous system (CNS) and are implicated in many neurological processes, including motivational and incentive salience, cognition, memory, learning, and fine motor control, as well as modulation of neuroendocrine signaling.
A nitrogen bound to both a good electrofuge and a good nucleofuge is known as a nitrenoid (for its resemblance to a nitrene). [2] Nitrenes lack a full octet of electrons are thus highly electrophilic; nitrenoids exhibit analogous behavior and are often good substrates for electrophilic amination reactions.
Targeted covalent inhibitors (TCIs) or Targeted covalent drugs are rationally designed inhibitors that bind and then bond to their target proteins.These inhibitors possess a bond-forming functional group of low chemical reactivity that, following binding to the target protein, is positioned to react rapidly with a proximate nucleophilic residue at the target site to form a bond.
New drugs to treat debilitating menopause symptoms — namely hot flashes — are finally on the market or are in development. But doctors say insurance companies either won’t pay for them or ...
Clozapine is an example of a drug used in the treatment of certain CNS disorders, such as schizophrenia, that has superior efficacy precisely because of its broad-spectrum mode of action. Likewise, in cancer chemotherapeutics, it has been recognized that drugs active at more than one target have a higher probability of being efficacious.
