In organic chemistry, a moiety (/ ˈ m ɔɪ ə t i / MOY-ə-tee) is a part of a molecule [1] [2] that is given a name because it is identified as a part of other molecules as well.
Moiety (chemistry), a part or functional group of a molecule Moiety conservation, conservation of a subgroup in a chemical species; Other uses.
Moiety conservation is the conservation of a subgroup in a chemical species, which is cyclically transferred from one molecule to another. In biochemistry, moiety conservation can have profound effects on the system's dynamics.
In organic chemistry, a functional group is a substituent or moiety in a molecule that causes the molecule's characteristic chemical reactions.The same functional group will undergo the same or similar chemical reactions regardless of the rest of the molecule's composition.
Elias James Corey (born July 12, 1928) is an American organic chemist.In 1990, he won the Nobel Prize in Chemistry "for his development of the theory and methodology of organic synthesis", [3] specifically retrosynthetic analysis.
He received a B.S. in chemistry from Brigham Young University in 1939 and obtained a Wisconsin Alumni Research Foundation Scholarship for graduate studies. Five days before leaving for Wisconsin, Paul married Lyda Whicker in 1939, and they remained married for nearly eighty years until his death in 2018, making him the longest-married Nobel ...
