  2. Wilkinson's catalyst - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wilkinson's_catalyst

    Wilkinson's catalyst (chlorido­tris(triphenylphosphine)­rhodium(I)) is a coordination complex of rhodium with the formula [RhCl(PPh 3) 3], where 'Ph' denotes a phenyl group. It is a red-brown colored solid that is soluble in hydrocarbon solvents such as benzene, and more so in tetrahydrofuran or chlorinated solvents such as dichloromethane .

  3. Tsuji–Wilkinson decarbonylation reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsuji–Wilkinson...

    The Tsuji–Wilkinson decarbonylation reaction is a method for the decarbonylation of aldehydes and some acyl chlorides. The reaction name recognizes Jirō Tsuji, whose team first reported the use of Wilkinson's catalyst (RhCl(PPh 3) 3) for these reactions: RC(O)X + RhCl(PPh 3) 3 → RX + RhCl(CO)(PPh 3) 2 + PPh 3

  4. Metal-catalysed hydroboration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal-catalysed_hydroboration

    Catalyst prepared and handled under anaerobic condition reverses the selectivity to favor the secondary boronate ester. What has been debated is the coordination of the alkene. In the dissociative mechanism, proposed by Männig and Nöth, [ 4 ] and supported by Evans and Fu [ 5 ] the coordination is accompanied by the loss of one ...

  5. Hydroacylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroacylation

    The reaction required tin tetrachloride and a stoichiometric amount of Wilkinson's catalyst: An equal amount of a cyclopropane was formed as the result of decarbonylation. The first catalytic application involved cyclization of 4-pentenal to cyclopentanone using (again) Wilkinson's catalyst. [4] In this reaction the solvent was saturated with ...

  6. Induction period - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Induction_period

    Time is required for this transformation, hence the induction period. For example, with Wilkinson's catalyst, one triphenylphosphine ligand must dissociate to give the coordinatively unsaturated 14-electron species which can participate in the catalytic cycle: Wilkinson's catalyst requires activation before it can participate in the catalytic cycle

  7. ATP synthase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ATP_synthase

    The overall process of creating energy in this fashion is termed oxidative phosphorylation. The same process takes place in the mitochondria, where ATP synthase is located in the inner mitochondrial membrane and the F 1-part projects into the mitochondrial matrix. By pumping proton cations into the matrix, the ATP-synthase converts ADP into ATP.

  8. Hypersensitive response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hypersensitive_response

    Hypersensitive response (HR) is a mechanism used by plants to prevent the spread of infection by microbial pathogens.HR is characterized by the rapid death of cells in the local region surrounding an infection and it serves to restrict the growth and spread of pathogens to other parts of the plant.

  9. Chemosynthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemosynthesis

    Venenivibrio stagnispumantis gains energy by oxidizing hydrogen gas.. In biochemistry, chemosynthesis is the biological conversion of one or more carbon-containing molecules (usually carbon dioxide or methane) and nutrients into organic matter using the oxidation of inorganic compounds (e.g., hydrogen gas, hydrogen sulfide) or ferrous ions as a source of energy, rather than sunlight, as in ...
