Key Chemistry Terms and definitions covered in this textbook

alkoxy substituent
An OR group.
amino acid residue
The individual repeating units in a polypeptide chain or protein.
amino acids.
A compound that contains at least one amino group and at least one carboxyl group. (25.3)
annulenes
Compounds consisting of a single ring containing a fully conjugated p system. Benzene is [6]annulene.
Anomers
Carbohydrates that differ in confi guration only at their anomeric carbons.
Cis, trans isomers
Stereoisomers that have the same connectivity but a different arrangement of their atoms in space as a result of the presence of either a ring or a carboncarbon double bond.
degree of unsaturation
The absence of two hydrogen atoms associated with a ring or a p bond.
heat of combustion
The heat given off during a reaction in which an alkane reacts with oxygen to produce CO2 and water.
Heterocyclic aromatic amine
An amine in which nitrogen is one of the atoms of an aromatic ring.
imine
A compound containing a CRN bond.
ion–dipole force
The force that exists between an ion and a neutral polar molecule that possesses a permanent dipole moment. (Section 11.2)
keto-enol tautomerization
The equilibrium that is established between an enol and a ketone in either acid-catalyzed or basecatalyzed conditions.
Lewis acid
A compound capable offunctioning as an electron pair acceptor.
pi 1P2 bond
A covalent bond in which electron density is concentrated above and below the internuclear axis. (Section 9.6)
polyvinyl chloride, (PVC)
A polymer formed from the polymerization of vinyl chloride (H2CRCHCl).
prostaglandins
Lipids that contain 20 carbon atoms and are characterized by a five-membered ring with two side chains.
Quaternary structure
The arrangement of polypeptide monomers into a noncovalently bonded aggregate.
Regioselective reaction
An addition or substitution reaction in which one of two or more possible products is formed in preference to all others that might be formed.
