  2. Hyperconjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperconjugation

    Hyperconjugation can be used to rationalize a variety of chemical phenomena, including the anomeric effect, the gauche effect, the rotational barrier of ethane, the beta-silicon effect, the vibrational frequency of exocyclic carbonyl groups, and the relative stability of substituted carbocations and substituted carbon centred radicals, and the thermodynamic Zaitsev's rule for alkene stability.

  3. Cieplak effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cieplak_Effect

    The Cieplak effect relies on the stabilizing interaction of mixing full and empty orbitals to delocalize electrons, known as hyperconjugation. [2] When the highest occupied molecular orbital of one system and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital of another system have comparable energies and spatial overlap, the electrons can delocalize and sink into a lower energy level.

  4. Negative hyperconjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_hyperconjugation

    This phenomenon, a type of resonance, can stabilize the molecule or transition state. [2] It also causes an elongation of the σ-bond by adding electron density to its antibonding orbital. [1] Negative hyperconjugation is seldom observed, though it can be most commonly observed when the σ *-orbital is located on certain C–F or C–O bonds ...

  5. Negative hyperconjugation in silicon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Negative_hyperconjugation...

    Negative hyperconjugation is a theorized phenomenon in organosilicon compounds, in which hyperconjugation stabilizes or destabilizes certain accumulations of positive charge. The phenomenon explains corresponding peculiarities in the stereochemistry and rate of hydrolysis .

  6. Gauche effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauche_effect

    Hyperconjugation model for explaining the gauche effect in 1,2-difluoroethane. Key in the bent bond explanation of the gauche effect in difluoroethane is the increased p orbital character of both C−F bonds due to the large electronegativity of fluorine. As a result, electron density builds up above and below to the left and right of the ...

  8. Baker–Nathan effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baker–Nathan_effect

    In 1935 Baker and Nathan explained the observed difference in terms of a conjugation effect and in later years after the advent of hyperconjugation (1939) as its predecessor. A fundamental problem with the effect is that differences in the observed order are relatively small and therefore difficult to measure accurately.

  9. Belousov–Zhabotinsky reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belousov–Zhabotinsky...

    A stirred BZ reaction mixture showing changes in color over time. The discovery of the phenomenon is credited to Boris Belousov.In 1951, while trying to find the non-organic analog to the Krebs cycle, he noted that in a mix of potassium bromate, cerium(IV) sulfate, malonic acid, and citric acid in dilute sulfuric acid, the ratio of concentration of the cerium(IV) and cerium(III) ions ...
