  2. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    Elimination reaction of cyclohexanol to cyclohexene with sulfuric acid and heat [1] An elimination reaction is a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one- or two-step mechanism. [2] The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction, and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction ...

  3. Evelyn effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_effect

    An E2 reaction is a One step mechanism in which carbon-hydrogen and carbon-halogen bonds break to form a double bond. C=C Pi bond. An E1 reaction is the Ionization of the carbon-halogen bond breaking to give a carbocation intermediate, then the Deprotonation of the carbocation. For these two reactions, there are 3 possible products, 3-methyl ...

  4. E1cB-elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E1cB-elimination_reaction

    The E1cB mechanism is just one of three types of elimination reaction. The other two elimination reactions are E1 and E2 reactions. Although the mechanisms are similar, they vary in the timing of the deprotonation of the α-carbon and the loss of the leaving group. E1 stands for unimolecular elimination, and E2 stands for bimolecular elimination.

  5. Hammond's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammond's_postulate

    An E1 reaction consists of a unimolecular elimination, where the rate determining step of the mechanism depends on the removal of a single molecular species. This is a two-step mechanism. The more stable the carbocation intermediate is, the faster the reaction will proceed, favoring the products.

  6. Stereoselectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoselectivity

    Stereoconvergence can be considered an opposite of stereospecificity, when the reaction of two different stereoisomers yield a single product stereoisomer. The quality of stereoselectivity is concerned solely with the products, and their stereochemistry. Of a number of possible stereoisomeric products, the reaction selects one or two to be formed.

  7. Meyer–Schuster rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meyer–Schuster_rearrangement

    Meyer-Schuster Rearrangement. The reaction mechanism [5] begins with the protonation of the alcohol which leaves in an E1 reaction to form the allene from the alkyne.Attack of a water molecule on the carbocation and deprotonation is followed by tautomerization to give the α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound.

  8. The Foul Flirting Method of Male Ring-Tailed Lemurs - AOL

    Unfortunately, another male’s reaction is instant aggression, which can lead to a fight among the males. When males release their scent, they aren’t only letting the female lemurs know they ...

  9. 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.
