  2. Hexane - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hexane

    Hexane (/ ˈ h ɛ k s eɪ n /) or n-hexane is an organic compound, a straight-chain alkane with six carbon atoms and the molecular formula C 6 H 14. [ 7 ] Hexane is a colorless liquid, odorless when pure, and with a boiling point of approximately 69 °C (156 °F).

  3. Deprotonation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Deprotonation

    Deprotonation (or dehydronation) is the removal (transfer) of a proton (or hydron, or hydrogen cation), (H +) from a Brønsted–Lowry acid in an acid–base reaction. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The species formed is the conjugate base of that acid.

  4. Evelyn effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_effect

    There are two types of elimination reactions, E1 and E2. 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.

  5. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    deprotonation of the carbocation. E1 typically takes place with tertiary alkyl halides, but is possible with some secondary alkyl halides. The reaction rate is influenced only by the concentration of the alkyl halide because carbocation formation is the slowest step, as known as the rate-determining step .

  6. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    The starting point for the collection of the substituent constants is a chemical equilibrium for which the substituent constant is arbitrarily set to 0 and the reaction constant is set to 1: the deprotonation of benzoic acid or benzene carboxylic acid (R and R' both H) in water at 25 °C. Scheme 1. Dissociation of benzoic acids

  7. Energy profile (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Energy_profile_(chemistry)

    The height of energy barrier is always measured relative to the energy of the reactant or starting material. Different possibilities have been shown in figure 6. Figure 6:Reaction Coordinate Diagrams showing reactions with 0, 1 and 2 intermediates: The double-headed arrow shows the first, second and third step in each reaction coordinate diagram.

  8. SN1 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN1_reaction

    General reaction scheme for the S N 1 reaction. The leaving group is denoted "X", and the nucleophile is denoted "Nu–H". The unimolecular nucleophilic substitution (S N 1) reaction is a substitution reaction in organic chemistry.

  9. Hammond's postulate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammond's_postulate

    Energy diagrams of S N 1 reactions The relationship between Hammond's postulate and the BEP principle can be understood by considering a S N 1 reaction . Although two transition states occur during a S N 1 reaction (dissociation of the leaving group and then attack by the nucleophile), the dissociation of the leaving group is almost always the ...
