  2. Organophosphorus chemistry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organophosphorus_chemistry

    With the formula (HO) 2 P(O)CH 2 NHCH 2 CO 2 H, this derivative of glycine is one of the most widely used herbicides. Bisphosphonates are a class of drugs to treat osteoporosis. The nerve gas agent sarin, containing both CP and F–P bonds, is a phosphonate. [citation needed] Phosphinates feature two PC bonds, with the general formula R 2 ...

  3. Dewar–Chatt–Duncanson model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dewar–Chatt–Duncanson...

    On the right, an empty pi-antibonding orbital on C 2 H 4 overlaps with a filled d-orbital on the metal. The Dewar–Chatt–Duncanson model is a model in organometallic chemistry that explains the chemical bonding in transition metal alkene complexes. The model is named after Michael J. S. Dewar, [1] Joseph Chatt and L. A. Duncanson. [2] [3]

  4. Carrier-sense multiple access - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carrier-sense_multiple_access

    P-persistent This approach lies between the 1-persistent and non-persistent CSMA access modes. [1] When the transmitting node is ready to transmit data, it senses the transmission medium for idle or busy. If idle, then it transmits immediately. If busy, then it senses the transmission medium continuously until it becomes idle, then transmits ...

  5. Michael addition reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Michael_Addition_Reaction

    In organic chemistry, the Michael reaction or Michael 1,4 addition is a reaction between a Michael donor (an enolate or other nucleophile) and a Michael acceptor (usually an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl) to produce a Michael adduct by creating a carbon-carbon bond at the acceptor's β-carbon. [1] [2] It belongs to the larger class of conjugate ...

  6. Henry reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Henry_reaction

    The figure below illustrates one of the commonly accepted models for stereoselection without any modification to the Henry reaction. In this model, stereoselectivity is governed by the size of the R groups in the model (such as a carbon chain), as well as by a transition state that minimizes dipole by orienting the nitro group and carbonyl oxygen anti each other (on opposite sides of the ...

  7. Persistent carbene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persistent_carbene

    1,3-Dimesityl-imidazol-4,5-dihydro-2-ylidene, a representative persistent carbene. A persistent carbene (also known as stable carbene) is an organic molecule whose natural resonance structure has a carbon atom with incomplete octet (a carbene), but does not exhibit the tremendous instability typically associated with such moieties.

  8. Levinthal's paradox - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levinthal's_paradox

    Levinthal's paradox is a thought experiment in the field of computational protein structure prediction; protein folding seeks a stable energy configuration. An algorithmic search through all possible conformations to identify the minimum energy configuration (the native state) would take an immense duration; however in reality protein folding happens very quickly, even in the case of the most ...

  9. Decarboxylative cross-coupling - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decarboxylative_cross-coupling

    The most typical class of reactions involves coupling between C–COOH and C–X bonds, however C–COOH and C–M cross-coupling, homo-coupling of carboxylic acids, heck coupling, and dehydrogenative cross-coupling can also be including in this class as they release CO 2. Heteroatom cross coupling reactions involving formation of C–N, C–S ...
