n
(chemistry) Any dimerization reaction accompanied by the formation of a ring
n
Alternative spelling of cycloisomerization [(organic chemistry) The conversion of an acyclic compound into a cyclic isomer]
v
(organic chemistry) To convert into a cyclomer
n
(chemistry) The conversion of a racemate into a pure enantiomer or into a mixture in which one enantiomer is present in excess, or of a diastereoisomeric mixture into a single diastereoisomer or into a mixture in which one diastereoisomer predominates
n
(chemistry) The formation of diastereomers from other isomers
n
(chemistry) The interconversion of enantiomers; racemization
n
(chemistry, physics) Any complex or heteronuclear molecule existing in an excited state, that is dissociated in the ground state.
n
(chemistry) a compound whose molecule undergoes rapid intramolecular rearrangements among equivalent structures in which the component atoms are interchanged
n
(chemistry) A complex in which one molecule (the guest) is located within a cavity of another (the host)
n
(chemistry) Any molecule that intercalates, or is inserted, between two others
n
(chemistry) the conversion of a compound into a different isomeric form
n
(chemistry) the interconversion of isomers
n
(chemistry) the conversion of a compound into a different isomeric form
n
(chemistry) The formation of a complex by reaction with a ligand.
n
(construction) A bitumen modified by including one or more polymers
n
(organic chemistry, biochemistry) A dynamic change in the rotation of polarized light as it passes through a fresh solution of some sugars as an equilibrium mixture of anomers is formed
n
A group or set of eight of something.
n
(organic chemistry) A form of photoisomerization leading to the formation of a tautomer.
n
A mixture of two or more polymers, especially of man-made fibres or recycled plastic.
n
(chemistry) Any condensation reaction, of a monomer having two functional groups, which leads to the formation of a polymer (a polycondensate).
n
(organic chemistry) Any oligomer or other macromolecule that is capable of further polymerization.
n
Alternative spelling of racemization [(chemistry) The formation of a racemate from a pure enantiomer.]
n
(biochemistry) The reconstruction of the original form of a protein or nucleic acid following denaturation
n
(chemistry) the mesomeric effect
n
(organic chemistry) Any reaction in which a dimer is converted to the original monomers
n
(chemistry) A complex formed by the attachment of solvent molecules to that of a solute
n
(organic chemistry) A form of isomerism in which a dynamic equilibrium between multiple isomers exists, such as that between an enol and a ketone.
n
(chemistry) Isomerization between tautomers.
n
(chemistry) Any reaction involving the exchange of identical atoms or ligands to produce a molecule indistinguishable from the starting material

based on a statistical analysis of how they are used in writing. Some
of the words and concepts may be vulgar or offensive. The names of the
