  2. Electron-withdrawing group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron-withdrawing_group

    An electron-withdrawing group (EWG) is a group or atom that has the ability to draw electron density toward itself and away from other adjacent atoms. [1] This electron density transfer is often achieved by resonance or inductive effects.

  3. Captodative effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captodative_effect

    Delocalizing the radical ion stabilizes the transition state structure. As a result, the energy of activation decreases, enhancing the rate of the overall reaction. According to the captodative effect, the rate of a reaction is the greatest when both the EDG and EWG are able to delocalize the radical ion in the transition state structure. [7]

  4. Electrophilic aromatic directing groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electrophilic_aromatic...

    An electron donating group (EDG) or electron releasing group (ERG, Z in structural formulas) is an atom or functional group that donates some of its electron density into a conjugated π system via resonance (mesomerism) or inductive effects (or induction)—called +M or +I effects, respectively—thus making the π system more nucleophilic.

  5. Birch reduction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Birch_reduction

    The Birch reduction is an organic reaction that is used to convert arenes to 1,4-cyclohexadienes.The reaction is named after the Australian chemist Arthur Birch and involves the organic reduction of aromatic rings in an amine solvent (traditionally liquid ammonia) with an alkali metal (traditionally sodium) and a proton source (traditionally an alcohol).

  6. Electronic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_effect

    An electric effect influences the structure, reactivity, or properties of a molecule but is neither a traditional bond nor a steric effect. [1] In organic chemistry, the term stereoelectronic effect is also used to emphasize the relation between the electronic structure and the geometry (stereochemistry) of a molecule.

  7. Control function (econometrics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Control_function...

    The function h(V) is effectively the control function that models the endogeneity and where this econometric approach lends its name from. [4]In a Rubin causal model potential outcomes framework, where Y 1 is the outcome variable of people for who the participation indicator D equals 1, the control function approach leads to the following model

  8. Ramsey–Cass–Koopmans model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ramsey–Cass–Koopmans_model

    With this assumption, we can re-express aggregate output in per capita terms (,) = (,) = For example, if we use the Cobb–Douglas production function with =, =, then () =. To obtain the first key equation of the Ramsey–Cass–Koopmans model, the dynamic equation for the capital stock needs to be expressed in per capita terms.

  9. Complexity economics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Complexity_economics

    The "nearly archetypal example" is an artificial stock market model created by the Santa Fe Institute in 1989. [5] The model shows two different outcomes, one where "agents do not search much for predictors and there is convergence on a homogeneous rational expectations outcome" and another where "all kinds of technical trading strategies appearing and remaining and periods of bubbles and ...
