  2. Bromocyclopentane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bromocyclopentane

    Bromocyclopentane is a derivative of cyclopentane, an alkyl halide with the chemical formula C 5 H 9 Br. It is a colorless to light yellow liquid at standard temperature and pressure . Uses

  3. Arrow pushing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_pushing

    Arrow pushing or electron pushing is a technique used to describe the progression of organic chemistry reaction mechanisms. [1] It was first developed by Sir Robert Robinson.In using arrow pushing, "curved arrows" or "curly arrows" are drawn on the structural formulae of reactants in a chemical equation to show the reaction mechanism.

    S N i reaction mechanism Sn1 occurs in tertiary carbon while Sn2 occurs in primary carbon. See also. Nucleophilic acyl substitution; References. This page was last ...

  5. SN1 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN1_reaction

    Typical polar protic solvents include water and alcohols, which will also act as nucleophiles, and the process is known as solvolysis. The Y scale correlates solvolysis reaction rates of any solvent ( k ) with that of a standard solvent (80% v/v ethanol / water ) ( k 0 ) through

  6. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleophilic_aromatic...

    In order to attack the C atom, the nucleophile must approach in line with the C-LG (leaving group) bond from the back, where the benzene ring lies. It follows the general rule for which S N 2 reactions occur only at a tetrahedral carbon atom. The S N 1 mechanism is possible but very unfavourable unless the leaving group is an exceptionally good ...

  7. Hammond's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammond's_postulate

    Bimolecular nucleophilic substitution (SN2) reactions are concerted reactions where both the nucleophile and substrate are involved in the rate limiting step. Since this reaction is concerted, the reaction occurs in one step, where the bonds are broken, while new bonds are formed. [12]

  8. Substitution reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_reaction

    The electron pair (:) from the nucleophile (Nuc:) attacks the substrate (R−LG), forming a new covalent bond Nuc−R−LG. The prior state of charge is restored when the leaving group (LG) departs with an electron pair. The principal product in this case is R−Nuc. In such reactions, the nucleophile is usually electrically neutral or ...

  9. Molecular electronic transition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_electronic...

    Auxochromes with free electron pairs (denoted as "n") have their own transitions, as do aromatic pi bond transitions. Sections of molecules which can undergo such detectable electron transitions can be referred to as chromophores , since such transitions absorb electromagnetic radiation (light), which may be hypothetically perceived as color ...
