Conversion and its related terms yield and selectivity are important terms in chemical reaction engineering.They are described as ratios of how much of a reactant has reacted (X — conversion, normally between zero and one), how much of a desired product was formed (Y — yield, normally also between zero and one) and how much desired product was formed in ratio to the undesired product(s) (S ...
Chemoselectivity is the preferential reaction of a chemical reagent with one of two or more different functional groups. [1]In a chemoselective system, a reagent in the presence of an aldehyde and an ester would mostly target the aldehyde, even if it has the option to react with the ester.
In chemistry the reactivity–selectivity principle or RSP states that a more reactive chemical compound or reactive intermediate is less selective in chemical reactions. In this context selectivity represents the ratio of reaction rates. This principle was generally accepted until the 1970s when too many exceptions started to appear.
Relation between chemical reaction conversion selectivity and yield. In chemical reaction engineering, "yield", "conversion" and "selectivity" are terms used to describe ratios of how much of a reactant has reacted—conversion, how much of a desired product was formed—yield, and how much desired product was formed in ratio to the undesired product—selectivity, represented as X, S, and Y.
Hoda Kotb announced she's leaving 'Today' in early 2025. Read how Jenna Bush Hager, Al Roker, Dylan Dreyer, Savannah Guthrie, Sheinelle Jones and Craig Melvin reacted.
Binding selectivity describes how a ligand may bind more preferentially to one receptor than another. A selectivity coefficient is the equilibrium constant for the reaction of displacement by one ligand of another ligand in a complex with the substrate. Binding selectivity is of major importance in biochemistry [1] and in chemical separation ...
Click chemistry is an approach to chemical synthesis that emphasizes efficiency, simplicity, selectivity, and modularity in chemical processes used to join molecular building blocks. It includes both the development and use of "click reactions", a set of simple, biocompatible chemical reactions that meet specific criteria like high yield, fast ...
Reactivity–selectivity principle, in general chemistry; Chemoselectivity, a term used in organic chemistry to describe reactivity of one functional group in the presence of other groups; Stereoselectivity, a term used in organic chemistry to describe the distribution of isomers in reaction products
