Microwave-assisted synthesis is attractive to researchers for many reasons, including speed, yields, and the potential for reduced solvent use. Raman monitoring offers a convenient way to elucidate the chemical mechanism while instantly, continuously monitoring reaction kinetics. This enables rapid, data-driven process optimizations without concerns about safely and accurately sampling out of a microwave vessel stopped mid-reaction. Pivonka and Empheld of AstraZeneca Pharmaceuticals describe the continuous acquisition of Raman spectra of an amine or Knoevenagel coupling reaction in a sealed microwave reaction vessel at elevated temperatures and pressures [134]. 

Although the mechanism whereby proteins are synthesized is the same in all living forms, classical distinctions exist between eucaryal (post-transcriptional) and bacterial (co-transcriptional) translation. In-frame read-out of (usually polycistronic) bacterial mRNAs is established via Shine-Dalgarno mRNA 16S-rRNA recognition mechanisms polypeptide synthesis is initiated by a formylated methionine and the initiation reactions are assisted by a limited number of protein factors (three in Escherichia coli) that primarily influence kinetic parameters [3],... 

Efforts have been made to accelerate the reaction. Ionic liquids can be obtained in < 1 min using microwave-assisted preparation, and ultrasound-assisted synthesis leads to the rapid isolation of ionic liquids with high chemical purity. If a microwave reactor with reaction condition control mechanisms is used, ionic liquids can be conveniently prepared even on a large scale (up to 2 moles), both in high yields and with short reaction times. ...

There is breadth and depth of assessment within WileyPLUS, consisting of Practice the Skill and Learn the Skill (from the SkillBuilders), many of the end-of-chapter problems, and a rich testbank. In addition, Reaction Explorer is a vast database of mechanism and synthesis questions. Professors can create online homework assignments or quizzes from these different assessment types and student responses are automatically graded. There are many forms of assistance available to students as they work questions within WileyPLUS, including link(s) to the relevant section of the text and guided problem-solving tutorials.

Based on the specific type of electrostatic interaction established between the inorganic precursor (I) and the surfactant head group (S), Huo et al. [11,12] proposed a general mechanism for the soft template-assisted synthesis of mesoporous materials. According to these authors, four main types of interactions are prone to occur depending on the reaction conditions (1) S " [9-11] (Table 18.2, a) (alkaline conditions, with pH = 9-14) (2) S I" [11] (Table 18.2, b) (below the isoelectric point of silica (pH = 2) under acidic conditions) and (3) [11]...
