    SN2 Reaction: Stereochemistry02:23

    SN2 Reaction: Stereochemistry

    In an SN2 reaction, the nucleophilic attack on the substrate and departure of the leaving group occurs simultaneously through a transition state. As the nucleophile approaches the substrate from the back-side, the configuration of the substrate carbon changes from tetrahedral to trigonal bipyramidal and then back to tetrahedral, leading to an inversion in the configuration of the product.
    If the substrate is an achiral molecule at the α-carbon, the inversion of configuration is not observed.

    SN1 Reaction: Stereochemistry

    This lesson provides an in-depth discussion of the stereochemical outcomes in an SN1 reaction.
    In the first step of an SN1 reaction, the bond between the electrophilic carbon and the leaving group ionizes to generate the carbocation intermediate. The second step of the mechanism is the nucleophilic attack.
    In the formed carbocation, the positively charged carbon is sp2 hybridized with a trigonal planar geometry. As all the three substituents lie on the same plane, a plane of symmetry for the...
    ortho–para-Directing Deactivators: Halogens01:24

    ortho–para-Directing Deactivators: Halogens

    Halogens are ortho–para directors. They are more electronegative than carbon. Therefore, as ring substituents, they can withdraw electrons through the inductive effect and deactivate the aromatic ring towards electrophilic substitution. Halogens also have an electron-donating resonance effect on the ring, which influences the orientation of the incoming electrophile. If an electrophile attacks at the ortho or the para position, the halogen donates electrons and stabilizes the intermediate...
    Radical Reactivity: Steric Effects01:10

    Radical Reactivity: Steric Effects

    The presence of electron-donating, electron-withdrawing, or conjugating groups adjacent to a radical center, imparts electronic stabilization to the radicals. Examples of such electronically-stabilized radicals are triphenylmethyl, tetramethylpiperidine‐N‐oxide, and 2,2‐diphenyl‐1‐picrylhydrazyl. These radicals are remarkably stable and are known as persistent radicals. Some of the persistent radicals can even be isolated and purified.
    Along with electronic factors, steric factors also account...

    Radical Halogenation: Stereochemistry

    Stereochemistry is the study of the different spatial arrangements of atoms in a given molecule. The stereochemistry of radical halogenations can be understood from three different situations:

    Support Reactions in Three Dimensions01:27

    Support Reactions in Three Dimensions

    Support reactions in three dimensions help maintain the stability and equilibrium of various structures and systems. These reactions prevent the system from translating and rotating, ensuring the design can withstand external forces and perform its intended function efficiently and safely. Some of the supports providing support reactions in three dimensions are discussed below:
    Ball and Socket Joint is one of the supports allowing free rotation about any axis. This freedom of rotation is...
