  2. Conjugated system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugated_system

    Cinnamaldehyde is a naturally-occurring compound that has a conjugated system penta-1,3-diene is a molecule with a conjugated system Diazomethane conjugated pi-system. In theoretical chemistry, a conjugated system is a system of connected p-orbitals with delocalized electrons in a molecule, which in general lowers the overall energy of the molecule and increases stability.

  3. Conjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugation

    Conjugate (acid-base theory), a system describing a conjugate acid-base pair; Conjugated system, a system of atoms covalently bonded with alternating single and multiple bonds; Conjugate variables (thermodynamics), pairs of variables that always change simultaneously; Conjugate quantities, observables that are linked by the Heisenberg ...

  4. Chromophore - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromophore

    In a conjugated pi-system, electrons are able to capture certain photons as the electrons resonate along a certain distance of p-orbitals - similar to how a radio antenna detects photons along its length. Typically, the more conjugated (longer) the pi-system is, the longer the wavelength of photon can be captured.

  5. Cross-conjugation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-conjugation

    Whereas a normal conjugated system such as a polyene typically has alternating single and double bonds along consecutive atoms, a cross-conjugated system has an alkene unit bonded to one of the middle atoms of another conjugated chain through a single bond. In classical terms, one of the double-bonds branches off rather than continuing ...

  6. Conjugate variables (thermodynamics) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_variables...

    Just as a small increment of energy in a mechanical system is the product of a force times a small displacement, so an increment in the energy of a thermodynamic system can be expressed as the sum of the products of certain generalized "forces" which, when unbalanced, cause certain generalized "displacements" to occur, with their product being the energy transferred as a result.

  7. Antiaromaticity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antiaromaticity

    The molecule must have a complete conjugated π-electron system within the ring. The molecule must have 4n π-electrons where n is any integer within the conjugated π-system. This differs from aromaticity only in the fourth criterion: aromatic molecules have 4n +2 π-electrons in the conjugated π system and therefore follow Hückel’s rule ...

  8. Conjugate gradient method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_gradient_method

    Conjugate gradient, assuming exact arithmetic, converges in at most n steps, where n is the size of the matrix of the system (here n = 2). In mathematics , the conjugate gradient method is an algorithm for the numerical solution of particular systems of linear equations , namely those whose matrix is positive-semidefinite .

  9. Conjugate (acid-base theory) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugate_(acid-base_theory)

    A conjugate acid, within the Brønsted–Lowry acid–base theory, is a chemical compound formed when an acid gives a proton (H +) to a base—in other words, it is a base with a hydrogen ion added to it, as it loses a hydrogen ion in the reverse reaction.
