  2. Spiro compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiro_compound

    A spiro compound, or spirane, from the Latin spīra, meaning a twist or coil, [22] [5]: 1138 [23] is a chemical compound, typically an organic compound, that presents a twisted structure of two or more rings (a ring system), in which 2 or 3 rings are linked together by one common atom, [2]: SP-0

  3. Stille reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stille_reaction

    The mechanism of the Stille reaction has been extensively studied. [11] [23] The catalytic cycle involves an oxidative addition of a halide or pseudohalide (2) to a palladium catalyst (1), transmetalation of 3 with an organotin reagent (4), and reductive elimination of 5 to yield the coupled product (7) and the regenerated palladium catalyst (1).

  4. Orbital hybridisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_hybridisation

    For this molecule, carbon sp 2 hybridises, because one π (pi) bond is required for the double bond between the carbons and only three σ bonds are formed per carbon atom. In sp 2 hybridisation the 2s orbital is mixed with only two of the three available 2p orbitals, usually denoted 2p x and 2p y. The third 2p orbital (2p z) remains unhybridised.

  5. Vinyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_group

    In organic chemistry, a vinyl group (abbr. Vi; [1] IUPAC name: ethenyl group [2]) is a functional group with the formula −CH=CH 2. It is the ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene) molecule (H 2 C=CH 2) with one fewer hydrogen atom. The name is also used for any compound containing that group, namely R−CH=CH 2 where R is any other group of atoms.

  6. Ficain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ficain

    The name ficin was first used by Robbins in 1930 to describe a purified substance with anthelmintic activity isolated from any member of the fig genus. [6] The Enzyme Commission of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB) originally assigned EC 3.4.4.12 as ficin in 1961, which was transferred to 3.4.22.3 and renamed to ficain in 1972, making the two term synonymous ...

  7. Outline of chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_chemistry

    The following outline acts as an overview of and topical guide to chemistry: . Chemistry is the science of atomic matter (matter that is composed of chemical elements), especially its chemical reactions, but also including its properties, structure, composition, behavior, and changes as they relate to the chemical reactions.

  8. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    In organic chemistry, the Hammett equation describes a linear free-energy relationship relating reaction rates and equilibrium constants for many reactions involving benzoic acid derivatives with meta- and para-substituents to each other with just two parameters: a substituent constant and a reaction constant.

  9. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    The superscript 1 for a singly occupied subshell is not compulsory; for example aluminium may be written as either [Ne] 3s 2 3p 1 or [Ne] 3s 2 3p. In atoms where a subshell is unoccupied despite higher subshells being occupied (as is the case in some ions, as well as certain neutral atoms shown to deviate from the Madelung rule ), the empty ...
