A nucleophilic pair of electrons (either from another bond or a lone pair) heads into a new π bond as a leaving group departs. This process is called β-elimination because the bond β to the nucleophilic pair of electrons breaks. Transition metal complexes can participate in their own version of β-elimination, and metal alkyl complexes famously do so.

It provides a table listing alkanes with up to ten carbon atoms, including methane, ethane, propane, and others, with their molecular and condensed structural formulas, and boiling points.

Constitutional isomers are molecules with the same molecular formula but different structural formulas or bonding arrangements. The text discusses pentane, an alkane with five carbon atoms, and illustrates its three constitutional isomers, including unbranched and branched forms. Practice questions are provided to engage learners in identifying and drawing constitutional isomers of heptane and hexane.

It explains that Physical chemistry investigates both macroscopic and microscopic properties, while Organic chemistry centers on carbon compounds. Inorganic chemistry focuses on non-carbon compounds, Analytical chemistry studies matter composition, and Biochemistry explores chemical processes in living organisms.

There is much more than meets the eye to most M-H bonds: although they’re simple to draw, they vary enormously in polarization and pKa. They may be acidic or hydridic or both, depending on the nature of the metal center and the reaction conditions. In this post, we’ll develop some heuristics for predicting the behavior of M-H bonds and discuss their major modes of reactivity.

It provides examples, such as diethyl ether (IUPAC: ethoxyethane) and ethyl methyl ether (IUPAC: methoxyethane), along with questions that prompt readers to identify the common and IUPAC names of various molecules, practice numbering carbons, and apply naming rules. Instructions are also sought for teaching ether nomenclature.
