  2. Outcome switching - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outcome_switching

    Outcome switching also occurs frequently in follow-up studies. [6] In an analysis of oncology trials, outcome switching was more common in studies with a male first author, and in studies funded by non-profits. [7] One study analysed outcome switching in five top medical journals, writing letters for each misreported trial outcome.

  3. Secondary metabolite - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_metabolite

    Plants are capable of producing and synthesizing diverse groups of organic compounds and are divided into two major groups: primary and secondary metabolites. [9] Secondary metabolites are metabolic intermediates or products which are not essential to growth and life of the producing plants but rather required for interaction of plants with their environment and produced in response to stress.

  4. Secondary (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_(chemistry)

    Secondary is a term used in organic chemistry to classify various types of compounds (e. g. alcohols, alkyl halides, amines) or reactive intermediates (e. g. alkyl radicals, carbocations). An atom is considered secondary if it has two 'R' Groups attached to it. [ 1 ]

  5. Primary (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primary_(chemistry)

    Primary is a term used in organic chemistry to classify various types of compounds (e.g. alcohols, alkyl halides, amines) or reactive intermediates (e.g. alkyl radicals, carbocations). Red highlighted central atoms in various groups of chemical compounds.

  6. Secondary metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Secondary_metabolism

    Secondary metabolites are produced by many microbes, plants, fungi and animals, usually living in crowded habitats, where chemical defense represents a better option than physical escape. [2] It is very hard to distinguish primary and secondary metabolites due to often overlapping of the intermediates and pathways of primary and secondary ...

  7. SN1 reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SN1_reaction

    An example of a reaction taking place with an S N 1 reaction mechanism is the hydrolysis of tert-butyl bromide forming tert-butanol: This S N 1 reaction takes place in three steps: 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 ...

  8. Neighbouring group participation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neighbouring_group...

    A classic example of NGP is the reaction of a sulfur or nitrogen mustard with a nucleophile, the rate of reaction is much higher for the sulfur mustard and a nucleophile than it would be for a primary or secondary alkyl chloride without a heteroatom. [4] Ph−S−CH 2 −CH 2 −Cl reacts with water 600 times faster than CH 3 −CH 2 −CH 2 ...

  9. Primary vs. secondary plant metabolism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Plant_secondary_metabolism

    Primary metabolism in a plant comprises all metabolic pathways that are essential to the plant's survival. Primary metabolites are compounds that are directly involved in the growth and development of a plant whereas secondary metabolites are compounds produced in other metabolic pathways that, although important, are not essential to the functioning of the plant.
