4-Substituted formation

The kinds of substitution mechanisms that may be relevant to super-low concentration elements such as Pa involve intrinsic defects, such as lattice vacancies or interstitials. Vacancy defects can potentially provide a low energy mechanism for heterovalent cation substitution, in that they remove or minimise the need for additional charge balancing substitutions. Formation of a vacancy per se is energetically unfavourable (e.g., Purton et al. 1997), and the trace element must rely instead on the thermal defect concentration in the mineral of interest, at the conditions of interest. Extended defects, such as dislocations or grain boundaries, may also play a key role, but as these are essentially non-equilibrium features, they will not be considered further here. 

Elimination, substitution (formation of unexpected substitution products or hydrolysis at the anomeric center), cyclization (inter- and intramolecular orthoesterification), migration and redox are only a few to mention [71]. 

According to Parthe et al. (1993), a standardization procedure is necessary in the presentation of the relevant data characteristic of a crystal structure (see also Parthe and Gelato 1984). A convenient description of the structure types is then possible using the Wyckoff sequence (the letters of the occupied Wyckoff sites). This allows a finer classification of structure types and offers suggestions not only for recognizing isotypic structures but also possible structural relationships like substitution, formation of vacancy or filled-in structure variants. 

Various rearrangements often result from internal nucleophilic condensation, intramolecular nucleophilic substitution, formation of an ion-molecule complex, and so on.

Tlic results also suggest that substitutional formation is most favorable on the (110) surface. This supports the view that the (110) surface will be more catalytically active than the (111) surface, as impurities segregate preferentially to this surface. Sayle et al. note that the segregation energies (i.e. the differences between bulk and surface energies) are larger for the Af cations than for cations due to elec-...

HBr reacts with an alkene to give the more substituted (and more stable) car-bocation intermediate, and the nucleophile is incorporated at that position (see Section 10.2). In experiments designed to further probe this reaction, hydrogen bromide (HBr) is added to undec-lO-enoic acid (153) in a hydrocarbon solvent, but benzoyl peroxide (149) is added to the reaction. When the product is isolated, 11-bromoundecanoic acid (154) is obtained in 70% yield. The bromine is attached to the less substituted carbon. Because Markovnikov s rule places the hydrogen atom on the less substituted carbon atom of the C=C unit and the bromine on the more substituted, formation of 154 is exactly the opposite result—an anti-Markovnikov addition.
