What is Cis and Trans Isomers? What causes cis and trans isomerism? Cis and trans isomerism arise due to the restricted rotation around a double bond or in a ring structure. This restricted rotation locks the atoms or groups into specific spatial arrangements, leading to different isomeric forms. Let’s explore an example to understand the … Read more

What is Structural isomer? Types of Structural isomer Structural isomerism, also known as constitutional isomerism, is a form of isomerism in which the atoms within a molecule are arranged in different orders, resulting in compounds with the same molecular formula but different structural formulae. Structural isomers often exhibit distinct physical and chemical properties. Let’s explore … Read more

What is Tautomer? Tautomer definition A tautomer is a type of isomer that exists in multiple interconvertible structures, differing in the relative position of a specific atomic nucleus, typically hydrogen. What Is Tautomerism? Structural Requirement of Tautomerism Tautomerism, the phenomenon of interconversion between different isomeric forms of a compound, has specific structural requirements. Here are … Read more

What is Keto Enol Tautomerization? Keto Enol Tautomer Structure The structure of a molecule plays a significant role in determining the favorability and stability of keto and enol forms during keto enol tautomerization. In general, ketones are more favored over enols in many common molecular structures. However, the presence and nature of the α-carbon (the … Read more

What is Triosephosphate isomerase? Mechanism of Triosephosphate isomerase Structure of Triosephosphate isomerase Triosephosphate isomerase in glycolysis Triosephosphate isomerase (TPI) plays a crucial role in the glycolysis pathway, which is the central metabolic pathway responsible for the breakdown of glucose to produce energy. TPI catalyzes the reversible isomerization of two triose phosphate molecules: dihydroxyacetone phosphate (DHAP) … Read more

Gibbs free energy is also referred to as the Gibbs function. Gibbs energy, also known as free enthalpy, is the measurement used to determine the highest amount of work that can be done in a thermodynamic process when temperatures and pressures remain constant. Gibbs free energy can be identified by the symbol “G”. Its value … Read more

What are Monosaccharides? Definition of Monosaccharides Monosaccharides are single sugar molecules that are the basic units of carbohydrates. They are simple sugars with a variety of structures and functions in biological systems. Vant Hoff’s Rule of ‘n’ The number of imaginable isomers of any delivered compound relies upon the digit of the molecule’s asymmetric carbon … Read more

Isomerism Definition Isomerism refers to the phenomenon where more than one compound has identical chemical formulas, but different chemical structures. Chemical compounds with identical chemical formulae, but differ in the properties and arrangement of the atoms within the molecule are known as isomers. Thus, compounds with isomerism are referred to as isomers. The term “isomer” … Read more
