Pharmaceutical Organic Chemistry Questions

OLN

a substance that, when added to a reaction mixture, changes (speeds up) the rate of attainment of equilibrum in the system without itself undergoing a permanent chemical change.

OLN

the method for producing gasoline from heavy petroleum distillates.

OLN

electron systems in which bonding electrons are not localised between two atoms as for a single bond but are spread (delocalized) over the whole group.

OLN

the process of improving the octane number of straight-run gasoline by increasing the proportion of aromatic and branched chain alkanes.

OLN

the phenomenon in which plane polarised light is turned in a clockwise direction.

OLN

reactions which proceed by means of a set of repeating cyclical steps, e.g. the free radical addition of hydrogen bromide to an alkene.

OLN

stereoisomeric structures which are not enantiomers (mirror images) of one another.

OLN

a term which may be applied to any asymmetric object or molecule. The property of non-identity of an object with its mirror image

OLN

the angle between groups attached on adjacent carbon atoms when viewed in a Newman projection.

OLN

A compound that consists of specifically two elements.

OLN

Energy that holds nucleus’ neutrons and protons together

OLN

Used to describe the study of the flow of heat.

OLN

A substance that can make a chemical reaction faster but which is not actually needed to produce the reaction nor is used in the reaction.

OLN

When a reaction provides the agents for a subsequent reaction.

OLN

Properties that require a chemical reaction to observe.

OLN

Used to describe when symmetric parts of a molecule are not super imposable on one another.

OLN

The path through which electrons flow.

OLN

A solution property that changes if the concentration of that solution changes.

OLN

When a compound is changed into water, heat, and CO2 as a result of combining with oxygen.
