Abstract:
In the macrocyclic centrosymmetric dinuclear complex, [Ag(2)(C(19)H(14)N(6)S(2))(2)](ClO(4))(2), the Ag(I) atom, bis-{[4-(2-pyrid-yl)pyrimidin-2-yl]sulfan-yl}methane (2-bppt) ligand and perchlorate anion each lie on a twofold rotation axis. The 2-bppt ligand chelates two four-coordinated Ag(I) atoms through its two bipyridine-like arms. The O atoms of the perchlorate anion are disordered each over two positions of equal occupancy. Adjacent complex mol-ecules are linked by π-π inter-actions between the pyridine and pyrimidine rings [centroid-centroid distance = 3.663 (8) Å].

SN2 Reaction: Kinetics
In a chemical reaction, a relationship exists between the concentration of reactants and the rate at which the reaction proceeds. The study to measure this relationship is known as the kinetics of a chemical reaction. Kinetic studies are used to deduce the rate law of a chemical reaction, which provides information about the species involved during the transition state of the rate-determining step. Thus, kinetic studies help to derive the mechanism of a...
SN2 Reaction: Mechanism
The presence of the more electronegative halogen in the substrate creates a polarized carbon-halide bond. The halide pulls the electron cloud generating an electrophilic center at the carbon atom. Thus, the carbon atom carries a partial positive charge while the halide has a...
