Halogenation of saturated hydrocarbons is a substitution reaction. The reaction typically involves free radical pathways. The regiochemistry of the halogenation of alkanes is largely determined by the relative weakness of the C–H bonds. This trend is reflected by the faster reaction at tertiary and secondary positions.
In the oxygen-rich capillaries of the lung, this property causes the displacement of carbon dioxide to plasma as low-oxygen blood enters the alveolus and is vital for alveolar gas exchange. The general equation for the Haldane Effect is: H + + HbO 2 ⇌ H + Hb + O 2; However, this equation is confusing as it reflects primarily the Bohr effect.
Molecular oxygen inhibits the reaction (trapping the radicals), but Fe 2+ salts initiate it. [ 14 ] Further investigations demonstrated that both the rate of the ultraviolet-catalyzed decomposition of dibutylchloroamine and the yield of newly formed pyrrolidine are strongly dependent on the acidity of the reaction medium – faster and higher ...
Reaction mechanism for the bromination of acetone while in the presence of aqueous NaOH. In acidic solution, usually only one alpha hydrogen is replaced by a halogen, as each successive halogenation is slower than the first. The halogen decreases the basicity of the carbonyl oxygen, thus making protonation less favorable. However, in basic ...
The values below are standard apparent reduction potentials (E°') for electro-biochemical half-reactions measured at 25 °C, 1 atmosphere and a pH of 7 in aqueous solution. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The actual physiological potential depends on the ratio of the reduced ( Red ) and oxidized ( Ox ) forms according to the Nernst equation and the thermal voltage .
The Bohr effect increases the efficiency of oxygen transportation through the blood. After hemoglobin binds to oxygen in the lungs due to the high oxygen concentrations, the Bohr effect facilitates its release in the tissues, particularly those tissues in most need of oxygen. When a tissue's metabolic rate increases, so does its carbon dioxide ...
The Schenck ene reaction or the Schenk reaction is the reaction of singlet oxygen with alkenes to yield hydroperoxides. The hydroperoxides can be reduced to allylic alcohols or eliminate to form unsaturated carbonyl compounds. It is a type II photooxygenation reaction, and is discovered in 1944 by Günther Otto Schenck. [1]
In chemistry, the haloform reaction (also referred to as the Lieben haloform reaction) is a chemical reaction in which a haloform (CHX 3, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of an acetyl group (R−C(=O)CH 3, where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl group), in the presence of a base.
