  2. Pentadiene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentadiene

    In organic chemistry, pentadiene is any hydrocarbon with an open chain of five carbons, connected by two single bonds and two double bonds. All those compounds have the same molecular formula C 5 H 8. The inventory of pentadienes include: 1,2-pentadiene, or ethyl allene, H 2 C=C=CH−CH 2 −CH 3. [1] 1,3-pentadiene, H 2 C=CH−CH=CH−CH 3 ...

  3. 1,4-Pentadiyne - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,4-Pentadiyne

    While for 1,4-pentadiene the sp 2-hybridization leads to a bond angle of 120° between the single and double bond, in 1,4-pentadiyne it is a 180° angle due to the sp-hybrid orbital. Both triple bonds in 1,4-position destabilize each other according to another study by 3.9 kcal · mol −1 , a repulsion between the p orbital lobes close to the ...

  4. Allyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allyl_group

    Structure of the allyl group. In organic chemistry, an allyl group is a substituent with the structural formula −CH 2 −HC=CH 2. It consists of a methylene bridge (−CH 2 −) attached to a vinyl group (−CH=CH 2). [1] [2] The name is derived from the scientific name for garlic, Allium sativum.

  5. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    [1] [2] [3] Introduced by Gilbert N. Lewis in his 1916 article The Atom and the Molecule, a Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded molecule, as well as coordination compounds. [4] Lewis structures extend the concept of the electron dot diagram by adding lines between atoms to represent shared pairs in a chemical bond.

  6. Allenes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allenes

    Compared to isolated and conjugated dienes, they are considerably less stable: comparing the isomeric pentadienes, the allenic 1,2-pentadiene has a heat of formation of 33.6 kcal/mol, compared to 18.1 kcal/mol for (E)-1,3-pentadiene and 25.4 kcal/mol for the isolated 1,4-pentadiene. [15]

  7. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    Mixing takes place between same-symmetry orbitals of comparable energy resulting a new set of MO's for water: 2a 1 MO from mixing of the oxygen 2s AO and the hydrogen σ MO. 1b 2 MO from mixing of the oxygen 2p y AO and the hydrogen σ* MO. 3a 1 MO from mixing of the a 1 AOs.

  8. Conjugated system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conjugated_system

    Cinnamaldehyde is a naturally-occurring compound that has a conjugated system penta-1,3-diene is a molecule with a conjugated system Diazomethane conjugated pi-system. In theoretical chemistry, a conjugated system is a system of connected p-orbitals with delocalized electrons in a molecule, which in general lowers the overall energy of the molecule and increases stability.

  9. Lipoxygenase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lipoxygenase

    Lipoxygenases (EC 1.13.11.-) (LOX) are a family of (non-heme) iron-containing enzymes, more specifically oxidative enzymes, most of which catalyze the dioxygenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in lipids containing a cis,cis-1,4-pentadiene into cell signaling agents that serve diverse roles as autocrine signals that regulate the function of their parent cells, paracrine signals that regulate ...
