Arenes | Aromatic hydrocarbons with one or more benzene rings |
Delocalised electrons | Electrons shared between more than 2 atoms |
Addition reaction | Reaction where a reactant is added to a unsaturated molecule to make a saturated molecule 2 reactants = 1 product |
Substitution reaction | An atom or group of atoms are replaced by a different atom or group of atoms 2 reactants = 2 products |
Electrophile | An atom or group of atoms that is attracted to an electron rich centre, where it accepts a pair of electrons to form a dative covalent bond |
Electrophilic substitution | A type of substitution reaction where an electrophile is attracted to an electron rich centre or atom, where it accepts a pair of electrons to form a dative covalent bond |
Reaction mechanism | The series of steps that together make up the overall reaction |
Functional group | Part of the molecule that is responsible for its chemical reactions |
Electronegativity | The measure of attraction of a bonded pair of electrons in a covalent bond |
Redox reaction | A reaction where oxidation and reduction both occur |
Reflux | The continual boiling and condensing of a reaction mixture to ensure that the reaction the contents of the flask boiling dry |
Nucleophile | An atom or group of atoms attracted to an electron deficient centre where it donates a pair of electrons to form a covalent bond |
Curly arrow | Symbol used in reaction mechanisms to show the movement of an electron pair in the breaking or formation of a covalent bond |
Esterification | The reaction between an alcohol and carboxylic acid to make an ester and water |
Hydrolysis | The reaction with water or hydroxide ions that breaks a chemical compound into two compounds |
Low density lipoprotein | Responsible for carrying cholesterol and triglycerides from the litter to tissues |
High density lipoproteins | Can remove cholesterol from the arteries and transport it back to the liver for excretion or re-utilisation |
Peptide | Compound made of amino acids liked by peptide bonds |
Zwitterion | Dipolar ionic form of an amino acid that is formed by the donation of a hydrogen ion from the carboxyl group to the amino group. As both charges are present there is no overall charge |
Isoelectric point | The pH value at which the amino acid exists as a zwitterion |
Condensation reaction | Two smaller molecules react together to form a larger molecule with the elimination of a smaller molecule, water |
Hydrolysis | Breaking of a bond by reaction with water Can be catalised by acid or alkali |
Stereoisomers | A species with same structural formula but with a different arrangement of atoms in space |
Chiral carbon | Carbon atom attached to 4 different atoms or groups of atoms |
Optical isomers | Stereoisomers that are non-superimposable mirror images of eachother |
Repeat unit | The specific arrangement of atoms that occurs in the structure over and over again Drawn in brackets, outside symbol, n |
Biodegradable polymer | A polymer that breaks down into carbon dioxide and water |
Degradable polymer | A polymer that breaks down into smaller fragments when exposed to light, heat or moisture |
Pharmacological activity | The beneficial or adverse effects of a drug on living matter |
Phase | Physically distinctive form of a substance of ordinary matter |
Mobile phase | The phase that moves in chromatography |
Stationary phase | The phase that does not move in chromatography |
Adsorption | The process by which a solid holds molecules of a gas or liquid or solute as a thin film on the surface of a solid, rarely liquid |
Chromatogram | A visible record showing the result of separation of the components of a mixture by chromatography |
Rt | Distance moved by component ------------------------------------------------ Distance moved by solvent |
Retention time | In gas chromatography, is the time for a component to pass from the column inlet to the detector |
Chemical shift | A scale that compares the frequency of an NMR absorption with the frequency of the reference peak of TMS at 0 ppm |
