How does the structure of formaldehyde influence its function? Explain what the terms endo and exo mean with respect to the stereochemistry of the products formed in the Diels-Alder rxn using maleic acid cyclopentadiene. (Explain using structures and words) ...
How does the degree of inquiry-based laboratory instruction impact student performance and student perseverance in the laboratory portion of a first-semester general chemistry course? The implementation of a new first-semester general chemistry laboratory curriculum provided an opportunity to address this ...
sequence and side-chains jointly (AbDiffuser, dyMEAN) or at least solve the problem in two steps but with a partially joint model (Chroma); as compared to backbone generation followed by inverse folding as in RFDiffusion and FrameDiff. Other...
I concede to being at a disadvantage in that the only examples I am aware of for the Perkow reaction are those cited in Wikipedia. In the proposed mechanism with bromoacetone, how much Perkow product results in this reaction? Does the Arbusov reaction compete with it? I am familiar with a...
would work, but I don't like that it is an aryl ketone with a vinylogous nitrogen donating electrons as well. That does not mean that one of those mechanisms may not present. It just means I am uncomfortable with matching their electron movements with other chemistry that I have knowledge ...
