Tautomerization: All Types and their Examples
Tautomerization is the type of structural isomerism in which the positions of atoms in a molecule can be changed by the transfer of a hydrogen [...]

E2 reactions, as the name indicates, are bimolecular, single-step β-elimination reactions. Bond breaking and formation occur simultaneously in a single transition state. E2 reactions are regioselective [...]
Stereoselectivity is the process in which the formation of one of the stereoisomers is preferred over another during a chemical reaction. In a stereoselective reaction, [...]
Regioselectivity is the preferential formation or breaking of chemical bonds in one direction over all possible directions. It results in the formation of regioisomers and [...]
The molecules which have the same constitution but different arrangements of atoms in three-dimensional space are called stereoisomers and the study of these compounds is [...]
Esters are organic compounds that are prepared by the condensation of a carboxylic acid and an alcohol. When esters are added to water containing an [...]
Enantiomers are stereoisomers that cannot be superimposed on their mirror images. Although these molecules have the same connectivities but have different spatial orientations. Louis Pasteur [...]
The Claisen condensation is a chemical reaction that occurs between an ester and a compound containing an active methylene group (-CH2-). It is a condensation [...]
Huckel rule explains the aromatic properties of monocyclic organic compounds. According to this rule, a planner ring would be practically more stable if it has [...]
In chemistry, compounds having two or more chiral centers or a plane of symmetry are called meso compounds. They are symmetrical achiral molecules. The term [...]
