Quinones 1690-1660 Other substituents and steric hindrance affect the position of the band. C=C band is strong and is usually near... 

The piC values of polymethine dyes depend on terminal group basicity (64) thus the protonation abHity diminishes if the basic properties of the residues decrease, passing from benzimidazole, quinoline, benzothiazole, to indolenine. On the other hand, the piC of higher homologues increases with chain lengthening. The rate constant of protonation is sensitive to other features, for example, substituents and rings in the chain and steric hindrance for short-chain dyes. 

The brush-type (Pirkle-type) CSPs have been used predominantly under normal phase conditions in LC. The chiral selector typically incorporates tt-acidic and/or n-basic functionality, and the chiral interactions between the analyte and the CSP include dipole-dipole interactions, n-n interactions, hydrogen bonding, and steric hindrance. The concept of reciprocity has been used to facilitate the rational design of chiral selectors having the desired selectivity [45]. 

Table 12-4. Inductive effect and steric hindrance in the intermediate of azo coupling of 1-naphthol-3-sulfonic acid in the 2- and 4-positions, respectively (Stamm and Zollinger, 1957).

The kinetic isotope effect will thus be observed when k 2lk 1 is small this will be occasioned by low reactivity of the reagents, and steric hindrance to reaction. 

The use of (TMSlsSiH with acyl selenides can also yield new C-C bond formation, as shown with the a,/l-unsaturated lactam ester (Reaction 67). The resulting ketone can be envisaged as potentially useful for the synthesis of 2-acylindole alkaloids. Both the effects of H-donating ability and steric hindrance by the silicon hydride are evident. 

The PPP-MO method has proved extremely successful for the prediction of a wide range of colour properties, and it is currently the most extensively used method for this purpose. It does have some deficiencies. For example, the method carries out its calculations based on rc-electrons only and therefore cannot, except in a rather empirical way, account for some of the subtle effects of a-electrons on colour. Among such effects commonly encountered are hydrogen bonding and steric hindrance. As more and more powerful computing facilities become accessible, there is clear evidence that colour chemists are turning their attention towards the use for colour prediction of more sophisticated molecular orbital techniques which take into account all valence electrons, such as the CNDO and ZINDO approaches, and in due course they may well prove to be the methods of choice. However, at the present time, it has not been established with absolute certainty that these methods will routinely provide superior colour prediction properties.

The torsional effect as propsed by Schleyer57 and steric hindrance of the departing group according to Brown57 both have been discussed as interpretations of these reactivity series. 

Scheme 52 explains the [(Cp )Rh(MeCN)3]2+-assisted regioselective hydrogenation of pyridines, benzoquinolines, acridines as well as indoles and benzothiophene.258 The relative hydrogenation rates were attributed to both electronic and steric effects, the rate generally decreasing with increasing basicity and steric hindrance at the nitrogen atom. 

In filtration, the particle-collector interaction is taken as the sum of the London-van der Waals and double layer interactions, i.e. the Deijagin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek (DLVO) theory. In most cases, the London-van der Waals force is attractive. The double layer interaction, on the other hand, may be repulsive or attractive depending on whether the surface of the particle and the collector bear like or opposite charges. The range and distance dependence is also different. The DLVO theory was later extended with contributions from the Born repulsion, hydration (structural) forces, hydrophobic interactions and steric hindrance originating from adsorbed macromolecules or polymers. Because no analytical solutions exist for the full convective diffusion equation, a number of approximations were devised (e.g., Smoluchowski-Levich approximation, and the surface force boundary layer approximation) to solve the equations in an approximate way, using analytical methods. 

Opeida [46] compared the values of the rate constants of peroxyl radical reactions with hydrocarbons with the BDE of the oxidized hydrocarbon, electron affinity of peroxyl radical, EA(R02 ) ionization potential of hydrocarbon (/Rn), and steric hindrance of a-substituent R(Fr). They had drawn out the following empirical equation ... 

An increase in the size of the carbocycle and steric hindrance of the base leads to a decrease in the contribution of the target enoxime in the reaction products. Hence, in each particular case it is necessary to perform special experiments to elucidate whether the scheme is applicable for the synthesis of conjugated enoximes containing a remote functional group and to find optimal conditions.
