  2. Elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Elimination_reaction

    Elimination reaction of cyclohexanol to cyclohexene with sulfuric acid and heat [1] 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 ...

  3. E1cB-elimination reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/E1cB-elimination_reaction

    The E1cB mechanism is just one of three types of elimination reaction. The other two elimination reactions are E1 and E2 reactions. Although the mechanisms are similar, they vary in the timing of the deprotonation of the α-carbon and the loss of the leaving group. E1 stands for unimolecular elimination, and E2 stands for bimolecular elimination.

  4. Ei mechanism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ei_mechanism

    In organic chemistry, the E i mechanism (Elimination Internal/Intramolecular), also known as a thermal syn elimination or a pericyclic syn elimination, is a special type of elimination reaction in which two vicinal (adjacent) substituents on an alkane framework leave simultaneously via a cyclic transition state to form an alkene in a syn elimination. [1]

  5. Organic reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organic_reaction

    Organic chemistry has a strong tradition of naming a specific reaction to its inventor or inventors and a long list of so-called named reactions exists, conservatively estimated at 1000. A very old named reaction is the Claisen rearrangement (1912) and a recent named reaction is the Bingel reaction (1993).

  6. Intersystem crossing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intersystem_crossing

    Simply-stated, it involves coupling of the electron spin with the orbital angular momentum of non-circular orbits. In addition, the presence of paramagnetic species in solution enhances intersystem crossing. [2] The radiative decay from an excited triplet state back to a singlet state is known as phosphorescence. Since a transition in spin ...

  7. Ubiquitin-activating enzyme - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ubiquitin-activating_enzyme

    Ubiquitin-activating enzymes, also known as E1 enzymes, catalyze the first step in the ubiquitination reaction, which (among other things) can target a protein for degradation via a proteasome. This covalent bond of ubiquitin or ubiquitin-like proteins to targeted proteins is a major mechanism for regulating protein function in eukaryotic ...

  8. Zaytsev's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zaytsev's_rule

    In organic chemistry, Zaytsev's rule (or Zaitsev's rule, Saytzeff's rule, Saytzev's rule) is an empirical rule for predicting the favored alkene product(s) in elimination reactions. While at the University of Kazan , Russian chemist Alexander Zaytsev studied a variety of different elimination reactions and observed a general trend in the ...

  9. Evelyn effect - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_effect

    The Evelyn effect is defined as the phenomena in which the product ratios in a chemical reaction change as the reaction proceeds. This phenomenon contradicts the fundamental principle in organic chemistry by reactions always go by the lowest energy pathway. The favored product should remain so throughout a reaction run at constant conditions.
