Draw an energy diagram for the addition of hydrobromic acid to pent-1-ene. Two products form in this reaction; draw the curves for both. Label the positions of the reactions, intermediates, and products. What is the name of the product that forms from the curve that has the higher- energy carbocation intermediate? What is the name of the product that forms from the curve that has the higher-energy first transition state? The product of both the higher-energy carbocation intermediate and higher-energy first transition state is 1-bromopentane
Catalysis and Enzymatic Reactions
Catalysis is the kind of chemical reaction in which the rate (speed) of a reaction is enhanced by the catalyst which is not consumed during the process of reaction and afterward it is removed when the catalyst is not used to make up the impurity in the product. The enzymatic reaction is the reaction that is catalyzed via enzymes.
Lock And Key Model
The lock-and-key model is used to describe the catalytic enzyme activity, based on the interaction between enzyme and substrate. This model considers the lock as an enzyme and the key as a substrate to explain this model. The concept of how a unique distinct key only can have the access to open a particular lock resembles how the specific substrate can only fit into the particular active site of the enzyme. This is significant in understanding the intermolecular interaction between proteins and plays a vital role in drug interaction.
in this reaction; draw the curves for both. Label the positions of the reactions, intermediates,
and products. What is the name of the product that forms from the curve that has the higher-
energy carbocation intermediate? What is the name of the product that forms from the curve
that has the higher-energy first transition state?
The product of both the higher-energy carbocation intermediate and higher-energy first transition
state is 1-bromopentane.
