  2. SN2 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN2_reaction

    Elimination reactions are usually favoured at elevated temperatures [15] because of increased entropy. This effect can be demonstrated in the gas-phase reaction between a phenolate and a simple alkyl bromide taking place inside a mass spectrometer: [16] [17] Competition experiment between SN2 and E2

  3. Nucleophilic aromatic substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleophilic_aromatic...

    This reaction differs from a common S N 2 reaction, because it happens at a trigonal carbon atom (sp 2 hybridization). The mechanism of S N 2 reaction does not occur due to steric hindrance of the benzene ring. In order to attack the C atom, the nucleophile must approach in line with the C-LG (leaving group) bond from the back, where the ...

  4. Stereospecificity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereospecificity

    A stereospecific mechanism specifies the stereochemical outcome of a given reactant, whereas a stereoselective reaction selects products from those made available by the same, non-specific mechanism acting on a given reactant. Given a single, stereoisomerically pure starting material, a stereospecific mechanism will give 100% of a particular ...

  5. Nucleophilic substitution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nucleophilic_substitution

    The two main mechanisms were the S N 1 reaction and the S N 2 reaction, where S stands for substitution, N stands for nucleophilic, and the number represents the kinetic order of the reaction. [4] In the S N 2 reaction, the addition of the nucleophile and the elimination of leaving group take place simultaneously (i.e. a concerted reaction).

  6. Syn and anti addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syn_and_anti_addition

    The reaction is considered Markovnikov as it results in water addition with same regiospecificity as a direct hydration reaction. Alkene hydroboration-oxidation: Stereospecific: Can only be syn addition – hydrogen and hydroxyl (-OH) are added to the same face. The reaction is anti-Markovnikov. Hydroxyl attaches to the less substituted carbon.

  7. Stereoelectronic effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoelectronic_effect

    The intermediate of the above reaction is the di-anion and the stereoelectronic effect that stabilizes this intermediate over the other one is the fact that the anionic charge at the para position could delocalize to the oxygen atom via orbital interaction: π(benzene) → σ*(O–CH 3).

    Billy Crystal says there’s a moment from When Harry Met Sally that fans have been quoting back to him lately — and no, it’s not the obvious one.. The movie's memorable Katz’s Deli scene ...

  9. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    For example, the substituent may determine the mechanism to be an SN1 type reaction over a SN2 type reaction, in which case the resulting Hammett plot will indicate a rate acceleration due to an EDG, thus elucidating the mechanism of the reaction. Another deviation from the regular Hammett equation is explained by the charge of nucleophile.
