Abstract:
The crystal structures of hydro-thermally synthesized (T = 493 K, 7-9 d) ammonium gallium bis-[hydrogen arsenate(V)], (NH4)Ga(HAsO4)2, and thallium aluminium bis-[hydrogen arsenate(V)], TlAl(HAsO4)2, were solved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. Both compounds crystallize in the common RbFe(HPO4)2 structure type (R c) and share the same tetra-hedral-octa-hedral framework topology that houses the M + cations in its channels. One of the two Tl sites is slightly offset from its ideal position. Strong O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds strengthen the network.

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...
SN2 Reaction: Transition State
When the nucleophile approaches the electrophilic carbon with its lone pairs, the halide acts as a leaving group and moves away with the electron-pair bonded to the carbon. Dotted partial bonds represent the bonds being formed or broken...
