Since the S N 1 reaction involves formation of an unstable carbocation intermediate in the rate-determining step (RDS), anything that can facilitate this process will speed up the reaction. The normal solvents of choice are both polar (to stabilize ionic intermediates in general) and protic solvents (to solvate the leaving group in particular).
A more detailed explanation of this can be found in the main SN1 reaction page. S N 2 reaction mechanism. The S N 2 mechanism has just one step. The attack of the reagent and the expulsion of the leaving group happen simultaneously. This mechanism always results in inversion of configuration.
Sigmatropic rearrangements are concisely described by an order term [i,j], which is defined as the migration of a σ-bond adjacent to one or more π systems to a new position (i−1) and (j−1) atoms removed from the original location of the σ-bond. [3]

The general secretion (Sec) involves secretion of unfolded proteins that first remain inside the cells. In Gram-negative bacteria, the secreted protein is sent to either the inner membrane or the periplasm. But in Gram-positive bacteria, the protein can stay in the cell or is mostly transported out of the bacteria using other secretion systems.
A national study discovered that teens in the United States consumed significantly less alcohol and drugs in 2024 compared to past years. Teen alcohol use has steadily decreased from 2000 to 2024 ...
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) considers American cheese to be “pasteurized process cheese.” All cheese—real or not—undergoes some degree of processing to achieve the final product.
In the Walden inversion, the backside attack by the nucleophile in an S N 2 reaction gives rise to a product whose configuration is opposite to the reactant. Therefore, during S N 2 reaction, 100% inversion of product takes place. This is known as Walden inversion. It was first observed by chemist Paul Walden in 1896.
