  2. Acetyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl_group

    In IUPAC nomenclature, an acetyl group is called an ethanoyl group. An acetyl group contains a methyl group (−CH 3) that is single-bonded to a carbonyl (C=O), making it an acyl group. The carbonyl center of an acyl radical has one non-bonded electron with which it forms a chemical bond to the remainder (denoted with the letter R) of the molecule.

  3. Acetal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetal

    Used in a more general sense, the term X,Y-acetal also refers to any functional group that consists of a carbon bearing two heteroatoms X and Y. For example, N,O-acetal refers to compounds of type R 1 R 2 C(OR)(NR' 2) (R,R' ≠ H) also known as a hemiaminal ether or Aminal, a.k.a. aminoacetal.

  4. Acetyl-CoA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl-CoA

    Acetyl-CoA then enters the citric acid cycle, where the acetyl group is oxidized to carbon dioxide and water, and the energy released is captured in the form of 11 ATP and one GTP per acetyl group. Konrad Bloch and Feodor Lynen were awarded the 1964 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine for their discoveries linking acetyl-CoA and fatty acid ...

  5. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    The reactivity of a functional group can be modified by other functional groups nearby. Functional group interconversion can be used in retrosynthetic analysis to plan organic synthesis. A functional group is a group of atoms in a molecule with distinctive chemical properties, regardless of the other atoms in the molecule.

    Gaslighting is a term used in self-help and amateur psychology to describe a dynamic that can occur in personal relationships (romantic or parental) and in workplace relationships. [ 12 ] [ 13 ] Gaslighting involves two parties: the "gaslighter", who persistently puts forth a false narrative in order to manipulate , and the "gaslighted", who ...

  8. T-groups - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/T-groups

    A T-group or training group (sometimes also referred to as sensitivity-training group, human relations training group or encounter group) is a form of group training where participants (typically between eight and fifteen people) learn about themselves (and about small group processes in general) through their interaction with each other.

  9. Acyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acyl_group

    The intermediate collapses and expels the leaving group (X) to give the substitution product 3. While nucleophilic acyl substitution reactions can be base-catalyzed, the reaction will not occur if the leaving group is a stronger base than the nucleophile (i.e. the leaving group must have a higher pK a than the nucleophile). Unlike acid ...
