bimolecular nucleophilic substitution
1Nucleophilic substitution — In organic and inorganic chemistry, nucleophilic substitution is a fundamental class of reactions in which an electron nucleophile selectively bonds with or attacks the positive or partially positive charge of an atom or a group of atoms called… …
2Substitution reaction — In a substitution reaction, a functional group in a particular chemical compound is replaced by another group.[1][2] In organic chemistry, the electrophilic and nucleophilic substitution reactions are of prime importance. Organic substitution… …
3Nucleophilic aromatic substitution — A nucleophilic aromatic substitution is a substitution reaction in organic chemistry in which the nucleophile displaces a good leaving group, such as a halide, on an aromatic ring. There are 6 nucleophilic substitution mechanisms encountered with …
4reaction mechanism — Introduction in chemical reactions (chemical reaction), the detailed processes by which chemical substances are transformed into other substances. The reactions themselves may involve the interactions of atoms (atom), molecules (molecule),… …
5organohalogen compound — Introduction any of a class of organic compounds (organic compound) that contain at least one halogen (halogen element) ( fluorine [F], chlorine [Cl], bromine [Br], or iodine [I]) bonded to carbon. They are subdivided into alkyl, vinylic, aryl,… …
6Reaction mechanism — In chemistry, a reaction mechanism is the step by step sequence of elementary reactions by which overall chemical change occurs.[1] Although only the net chemical change is directly observable for most chemical reactions, experiments can often be …
7Collision theory — Reaction rate tends to increase with concentration phenomenon explained by collision theory Collision theory is a theory proposed by Max Trautz[1] and William Lewis in 1916 and 1918, that qualitatively explains how chemical reactions occur and… …
8Molecularity — in chemistry is the number of colliding molecular entities that are involved in a single reaction step.[1] While the order of a reaction is derived experimentally, the molecularity is a theoretical concept and can only be applied to elementary… …
9SN2 reaction — The SN2 reaction (also known as bimolecular nucleophilic substitution) is a type of nucleophilic substitution, where a lone pair from a nucleophile attacks an electron deficient electrophilic center and bonds to it, expelling another group called …
10Arrow pushing — or electron pushing is a technique used to describe the progression of organic chemistry reaction mechanisms.[1] In using arrow pushing, curved arrows or curly arrows are superimposed over the structural formulae of reactants in a chemical… …
