  2. 3-Methylhexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/3-Methylhexane

    3-Methylhexane is a branched hydrocarbon with two enantiomers. [2] It is one of the isomers of heptane. The molecule is chiral, and is one of the two isomers of heptane to have this property, the other being its structural isomer 2,3-dimethylpentane. The enantiomers are (R)-3-methylhexane [3] and (S)-3-methylhexane. [4]

  3. Halogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogenation

    In chemistry, halogenation is a chemical reaction which introduces one or more halogens into a chemical compound. Halide -containing compounds are pervasive, making this type of transformation important, e.g. in the production of polymers , drugs . [ 1 ]

  4. Biochemical switches in the cell cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biochemical_switches_in...

    The G1/S cell cycle checkpoint controls the passage of eukaryotic cells from the first gap phase, G1, into the DNA synthesis phase, S. In this switch in mammalian cells, there are two cell cycle kinases that help to control the checkpoint: cell cycle kinases CDK4/6-cyclin D and CDK2-cyclin E. [ 1 ] The transcription complex that includes Rb and ...

  5. Transhalogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transhalogenation

    C 3 H 5-Cl + NaF → R-F + NaCl This kind of reaction is called Finkelstein reaction . [ 2 ] However, it is also possible, for example, to produce phosphorus fluoride compounds by transhalogenating chlorine, bromine or iodine bound to phosphorus with a metal fluoride.

  6. Biological applications of bifurcation theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biological_applications_of...

    The phase diagrams are shown in Figure 5. Tracking the x-intercepts in the phase diagram as r changes, there are two fixed point trajectories which intersect at the origin; this is the bifurcation point (intuitively, when the number of x-intercepts in the phase portrait changes). The left fixed point is always unstable, and the right one stable.

  7. Alkane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkane

    The former result from the overlap of an sp 3 orbital of carbon with the 1s orbital of a hydrogen; the latter by the overlap of two sp 3 orbitals on adjacent carbon atoms. The bond lengths amount to 1.09 × 10 −10 m for a C–H bond and 1.54 × 10 −10 m for a C–C bond.

  8. Hydrohalogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrohalogenation

    By reaction with tertiary amines, long-chain alkyl bromides such as 1-bromododecane, give quaternary ammonium salts, which are used as phase transfer catalysts. [ 9 ] With Michael acceptors the addition is also anti-Markovnikov because now a nucleophilic X − reacts in a nucleophilic conjugate addition for example in the reaction of HCl with ...

  9. Lipid polymorphism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipid_polymorphism

    Lipid molecules in the HII phase pack inversely to the packing observed in the hexagonal I phase described above. This phase has the polar head groups on the inside and the hydrophobic, hydrocarbon tails on the outside in solution. The packing ratio for this phase is larger than one, [1] which is synonymous with an inverse cone packing.
