  2. SNi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SNi

    With standard S N 1 reaction conditions the reaction outcome is retention via a competing S N i mechanism and not racemization and with pyridine added the result is again inversion. [5] [3] S N i reaction mechanism Sn1 occurs in tertiary carbon while Sn2 occurs in primary carbon

  3. SN1 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN1_reaction

    An example of a reaction proceeding in a S N 1 fashion is the synthesis of 2,5-dichloro-2,5-dimethylhexane from the corresponding diol with concentrated hydrochloric acid: [8] As the alpha and beta substitutions increase with respect to leaving groups, the reaction is diverted from S N 2 to S N 1.

    A more detailed explanation of this can be found in the main SN1 reaction page. S N 2 reaction mechanism. The S N 2 mechanism has just one step. The attack of the reagent and the expulsion of the leaving group happen simultaneously. This mechanism always results in inversion of configuration.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sigmatropic_reaction

    The Fischer indole synthesis is a chemical reaction that produces the aromatic heterocycle indole from a (substituted) phenylhydrazine and an aldehyde or ketone under acidic conditions. [19] [20] The reaction was discovered in 1883 by Hermann Emil Fischer. The Fischer indole synthesis. The choice of acid catalyst is very important.

  6. Walden inversion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walden_inversion

    Walden inversion is the inversion of a stereogenic center in a chiral molecule in a chemical reaction. Since a molecule can form two enantiomers around a stereogenic center, the Walden inversion converts the configuration of the molecule from one enantiomeric form to the other.

  7. DNA synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DNA_synthesis

    A polymerase chain reaction is a form of enzymatic DNA synthesis in the laboratory, using cycles of repeated heating and cooling of the reaction for DNA melting and enzymatic replication of the DNA. DNA synthesis during PCR is very similar to living cells but has very specific reagents and conditions.

  8. Nucleic acid metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleic_acid_metabolism

    Nucleotide synthesis is an anabolic mechanism generally involving the chemical reaction of phosphate, pentose sugar, and a nitrogenous base. Degradation of nucleic acids is a catabolic reaction and the resulting parts of the nucleotides or nucleobases can be salvaged to recreate new nucleotides.

  9. Eukaryotic DNA replication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eukaryotic_DNA_replication

    First, synthesis of an RNA primer allows DNA synthesis by DNA polymerase alpha. Occurs once at the origin on the leading strand and at the start of each Okazaki fragment on the lagging strand. Pri subunits act as a primase, synthesizing an RNA primer. DNA Pol α elongates the newly formed primer with DNA nucleotides.
