  2. SN1 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN1_reaction

    Formation of a tert-butyl carbocation by separation of a leaving group (a bromide anion) from the carbon atom: this step is slow. [5] Recombination of carbocation with nucleophile. Nucleophilic attack: the carbocation reacts with the nucleophile. If the nucleophile is a neutral molecule (i.e. a solvent) a third step is required to complete the ...

    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. In all three of these reactions the first step is the slow step because the activation energy from the reactants to the transition state is the highest.

  4. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    An elimination reaction is a type of organic reaction in which two substituents are removed from a molecule in either a one- or two-step mechanism. [2] The one-step mechanism is known as the E2 reaction, and the two-step mechanism is known as the E1 reaction. The numbers refer not to the number of steps in the mechanism, but rather to the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quine–McCluskey_algorithm

    Given e.g. the subset = {, ¯, ¯, ¯ ¯, ¯ ¯} of the bottom-level nodes (light green), the algorithm computes a minimal set of nodes (here: {¯,}, dark green) that covers exactly . The Quine–McCluskey algorithm ( QMC ), also known as the method of prime implicants , is a method used for minimization of Boolean functions that was developed ...

  6. Rate-determining step - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rate-determining_step

    The rate-determining step is then the step with the largest Gibbs energy difference relative either to the starting material or to any previous intermediate on the diagram. [8] [9] Also, for reaction steps that are not first-order, concentration terms must be considered in choosing the rate-determining step. [8] [6]

  7. Nuclease S1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclease_S1

    Nuclease S1 (EC 3.1.30.1) is an endonuclease enzyme that splits single-stranded DNA (ssDNA) and RNA into oligo- or mononucleotides. This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction Endonucleolytic cleavage to 5'-phosphomononucleotide and 5'-phosphooligonucleotide end-products

  8. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    The last step in such a calculation is the assignment of electrons among the molecular orbitals according to the aufbau principle. Not all methods in computational chemistry rely on electron configuration: density functional theory (DFT) is an important example of a method that discards the model.

  9. Dedekind–MacNeille completion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dedekind–MacNeille...

    A complete lattice is a lattice in which every subset of elements of L has an infimum and supremum; this generalizes the analogous properties of the real numbers. An order-embedding is a function that maps distinct elements of S to distinct elements of L such that each pair of elements in S has the same ordering in L as they do in S.
