  2. Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane

    Tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane, sometimes referred to as "BCF", is the chemical compound (C 6 F 5) 3 B.It is a white, volatile solid. The molecule consists of three pentafluorophenyl groups attached in a "paddle-wheel" manner to a central boron atom; the BC 3 core is planar.

  3. Isomerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomerization

    In chemistry, isomerization or isomerisation is the process in which a molecule, polyatomic ion or molecular fragment is transformed into an isomer with a different chemical structure. [1] Enolization is an example of isomerization, as is tautomerization .

  4. Cycloisomerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cycloisomerization

    [10] [11] Dienyl esters such as 11 were transformed into substituted bicyclo[2.2.2]octanes via an isomerization step stabilized by a hemiacetal azolium intermediate (13). [11] The activation barrier of isomerization of 1,3–hexadiene through a [1,5]–shift is 41 Kcal mol–1 and is expected to increase with conjugation to the ester, thus ...

  5. Isomerase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isomerase

    Moderately high temperatures, above 70 °C, increase the yield of fructose by at least half in the isomerization step. [26] The enzyme requires a divalent cation such as Co 2+ and Mg 2+ for peak activity, an additional cost to manufacturers. Glucose isomerase also has a much higher affinity for xylose than for glucose, necessitating a carefully ...

  6. Beckmann rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beckmann_rearrangement

    In the third step, an isomerization step protonates the nitrogen atom leading to the amide. The Beckmann rearrangement mechanism The same computation with a hydroxonium ion and 6 molecules of water has the same result, but when the migrating substituent is a phenyl group, the mechanism favors the formation of an intermediate three-membered π ...

  7. Woodward–Hoffmann rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Woodward–Hoffmann_rules

    Thermolysis converts 1 to (E,E) geometric isomer 2, but 3 to (E,Z) isomer 4.. The Woodward–Hoffmann rules (or the pericyclic selection rules) [1] are a set of rules devised by Robert Burns Woodward and Roald Hoffmann to rationalize or predict certain aspects of the stereochemistry and activation energy of pericyclic reactions, an important class of reactions in organic chemistry.

  8. Photoisomerization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photoisomerization

    In addition, interest in photoisomerizable molecules has been aimed at molecular devices, such as molecular switches, [3] [4] molecular motors, [5] and molecular electronics. Another class of device that uses the photoisomerization process is as an additive in liquid crystals to change their linear and nonlinear properties. [ 6 ]

  9. Aromatization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aromatization

    Aromatization is a chemical reaction in which an aromatic system is formed from a single nonaromatic precursor. Typically aromatization is achieved by dehydrogenation of existing cyclic compounds, illustrated by the conversion of cyclohexane into benzene.
