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
the simple first-order rate law described in introductory textbooks. Under these conditions, the concentration of the nucleophile does not affect the rate of the reaction, and changing the nucleophile (e.g. from H 2 O to MeOH) does not affect the reaction rate, though the product is, of course, different. In this regime, the first step ...
Sigmatropic rearrangements are concisely described by an order term [i,j], which is defined as the migration of a σ-bond adjacent to one or more π systems to a new position (i−1) and (j−1) atoms removed from the original location of the σ-bond. [3]
Run-and-tumble motion is a movement pattern exhibited by certain bacteria and other microscopic agents. It consists of an alternating sequence of "runs" and "tumbles": during a run, the agent propels itself in a fixed (or slowly varying) direction, and during a tumble, it remains stationary while it reorients itself in preparation for the next run.
The rate of nutrient exchange is expressed as the dilution rate D. At steady state, the specific growth rate μ of the micro-organism is equal to the dilution rate D. The dilution rate is defined as the flow of medium per unit of time, F, over the volume V of culture in the bioreactor
A national study discovered that teens in the United States consumed significantly less alcohol and drugs in 2024 compared to past years. Teen alcohol use has steadily decreased from 2000 to 2024 ...
Proteins in bacteria are synthesized at a rate of only 18 amino acid residues per second, whereas bacterial replisomes synthesize DNA at a rate of 1000 nucleotides per second. This difference in rate reflects, in part, the difference between polymerizing four types of nucleotides to make nucleic acids and polymerizing 20 types of amino acids to ...
First-round players to watch, keys to the game. For the first time ever, there will be College Football Playoff games on campuses. Notre Dame-Indiana will get things started on Friday night before ...
