  2. Vinyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vinyl_group

    In organic chemistry, a vinyl group (abbr. Vi; [1] IUPAC name: ethenyl group [2]) is a functional group with the formula −CH=CH 2. It is the ethylene (IUPAC name: ethene) molecule (H 2 C=CH 2) with one fewer hydrogen atom. The name is also used for any compound containing that group, namely R−CH=CH 2 where R is any other group of atoms.

  3. Ficain - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ficain

    The name ficin was first used by Robbins in 1930 to describe a purified substance with anthelmintic activity isolated from any member of the fig genus. [6] The Enzyme Commission of the International Union of Biochemistry and Molecular Biology (IUBMB) originally assigned EC 3.4.4.12 as ficin in 1961, which was transferred to 3.4.22.3 and renamed to ficain in 1972, making the two term synonymous ...

  4. Orbital hybridisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_hybridisation

    For this molecule, carbon sp 2 hybridises, because one π (pi) bond is required for the double bond between the carbons and only three σ bonds are formed per carbon atom. In sp 2 hybridisation the 2s orbital is mixed with only two of the three available 2p orbitals, usually denoted 2p x and 2p y. The third 2p orbital (2p z) remains unhybridised.

  5. Stille reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stille_reaction

    The mechanism of the Stille reaction has been extensively studied. [11] [23] The catalytic cycle involves an oxidative addition of a halide or pseudohalide (2) to a palladium catalyst (1), transmetalation of 3 with an organotin reagent (4), and reductive elimination of 5 to yield the coupled product (7) and the regenerated palladium catalyst (1).

  6. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    The superscript 1 for a singly occupied subshell is not compulsory; for example aluminium may be written as either [Ne] 3s 2 3p 1 or [Ne] 3s 2 3p. In atoms where a subshell is unoccupied despite higher subshells being occupied (as is the case in some ions, as well as certain neutral atoms shown to deviate from the Madelung rule ), the empty ...

  7. Chemical nomenclature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_nomenclature

    The formula Na 2 SO 3 denotes that the cation is sodium, or Na +, and that the anion is the sulfite ion (SO 2− 3). Therefore, this compound is named sodium sulfite. If the given formula is Ca(OH) 2, it can be seen that OH − is the hydroxide ion. Since the charge on the calcium ion is 2+, it makes sense there must be two OH − ions

  8. One-pot synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/One-pot_synthesis

    In chemistry a one-pot synthesis is a strategy to improve the efficiency of a chemical reaction in which a reactant is subjected to successive chemical reactions in just one reactor. This is much desired by chemists because avoiding a lengthy separation process and purification of the intermediate chemical compounds can save time and resources ...

  9. Factor analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Factor_analysis

    Principal component analysis (PCA) is a widely used method for factor extraction, which is the first phase of EFA. [4] Factor weights are computed to extract the maximum possible variance, with successive factoring continuing until there is no further meaningful variance left. [4]
