    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Bromopropane

    2-Bromopropane, also known as isopropyl bromide and 2-propyl bromide, is the halogenated hydrocarbon with the formula CH 3 CHBrCH 3. It is a colorless liquid. It is a colorless liquid. It is used for introducing the isopropyl functional group in organic synthesis . 2-Bromopropane is prepared by heating isopropanol with hydrobromic acid .

  3. Chirality (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chirality_(chemistry)

    Chirality (chemistry) Two enantiomers of a generic amino acid that are chiral. (S)-Alanine (left) and (R)-alanine (right) in zwitterionic form at neutral pH. In chemistry, a molecule or ion is called chiral (/ ˈkaɪrəl /) if it cannot be superposed on its mirror image by any combination of rotations, translations, and some conformational ...

  4. 2-Bromobutane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2-Bromobutane

    Because the carbon atom connected to the bromine is connected to two other carbons the molecule is referred to as a secondary alkyl halide. 2-Bromobutane is chiral and thus can be obtained as either of two enantiomers designated as (R)-(−)-2-bromobutane and (S)-(+)-2-bromobutane. 2-Bromobutane is relatively stable, but is toxic and flammable.

  5. 1,2-Dibromopropane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,2-Dibromopropane

    1,2-Dibromo Propane also known as Propylene bromide is a naturally occurring organic compound. It is part of the Vicinal Dihalide family; it is highly unstable due to both torsional strain and its highly electrophilic nature. ^ "PubChem". pubchem.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov. ^ "1,2-dibromopropane - Compound Summary".

  6. Absolute configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Absolute_configuration

    In chemistry, absolute configuration refers to the spatial arrangement of atoms within a molecular entity (or group) that is chiral, and its resultant stereochemical description. [1] Absolute configuration is typically relevant in organic molecules where carbon is bonded to four different substituents. This type of construction creates two ...

  7. Bicyclic molecule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bicyclic_molecule

    A bicyclic molecule (from bi 'two' and cycle 'ring') is a molecule that features two joined rings. [1] Bicyclic structures occur widely, for example in many biologically important molecules like α-thujene and camphor. A bicyclic compound can be carbocyclic (all of the ring atoms are carbons), or heterocyclic (the rings' atoms consist of at ...

    The chiral fence. Chiral ligands work by asymmetric induction somewhere along the reaction coordinate. The image to the right illustrates how a chiral ligand may induce an enantioselective reaction. The ligand (in green) has C 2 symmetry with its nitrogen, oxygen or phosphorus atoms hugging a central metal atom (in red). In this particular ...

  9. Spiro compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiro_compound

    Spiro compound. Structure of C 17 H 20, which contains seven spiro atoms and eight cyclopropane rings [1] In organic chemistry, spiro compounds are compounds that have at least two molecular rings sharing one common atom. Simple spiro compounds are bicyclic (having just two rings). [2]: SP-0 [3]: 653, 839 The presence of only one common atom ...
