The Kurnakov test, also known as Kurnakov's reaction, is a chemical test that distinguishes pairs of cis- and trans-isomers of [PtA 2 X 2] (A = NH 3, X = halogen or pseudohalide). Upon treatment with thiourea , the trans -dihalides give less soluble white products, whereas the cis -dihalides give more soluble yellow products.
Crossover experiments allow for experimental study of a reaction mechanism. Mechanistic studies are of interest to theoretical and experimental chemists for a variety of reasons including prediction of stereochemical outcomes, optimization of reaction conditions for rate and selectivity, and design of improved catalysts for better turnover number, robustness, etc. [6] [7] Since a mechanism ...
1,2-Dibromoethylene, also known as 1,2-dibromoethene and acetylene dibromide, is a dihalogenated unsaturated compound with one bromine on each of the two carbon atoms. There are two isomers of this compound, cis and trans .
Although the mechanisms of each of these reactions differ somewhat, in each case the chiral catalyst or reagent must be involved in the enantio determining conjugate addition step. Cis-epoxides are difficult to access using nucleophilic epoxidation methods. Nearly all nucleophilic epoxidations of cis olefins afford trans epoxides.
Alternative Mechanism. The Corey-Winter olefination is a stereospecific reaction: [1] a trans-diol gives a trans-alkene, while a cis-diol gives a cis-alkene as the product. For instance, cis- and trans-1,2-cyclodecanediol gives the respective cis- and trans-cyclodecene.
The Bradford protein assay (also known as the Coomassie protein assay) was developed by Marion M. Bradford in 1976. [1] It is a quick and accurate [2] spectroscopic analytical procedure used to measure the concentration of protein in a solution. The reaction is dependent on the amino acid composition of the measured proteins.
Although the classic substrate for the Criegee oxidation are 1,2-diols, the oxidation can be employed with β-amino alcohols, [10] α-hydroxy carbonyls, [11] and α-keto acids, [12] In the case of β-amino alcohols, a free radical mechanism is proposed. The Criegee oxidation can also be employed with 2,3-epoxy alcohols forms α-acetoxy carbonyls.
This reaction is rapid and stoichiometric, with the addition of one mole of thiol releasing one mole of TNB. The TNB 2− is quantified in a spectrophotometer by measuring the absorbance of visible light at 412 nm, using an extinction coefficient of 14,150 M −1 cm −1 for dilute buffer solutions, [4] [5] and a coefficient of 13,700 M −1 cm −1 for high salt concentrations, such as 6 M ...
