What is SN2? This is a Nucleophilic Substitution reaction where there are 2 components in the rate determining step. It occurs simultaneously as bonds are made and broken at the same time. During the backside attack, a nucleophile attacks the electrophile from the back and causes an inverse in configuration. This attack causes a leaving group to leave. A transition state is formed while this reaction occurs, which is when the leaving group and nucleophile are attached at the same time. What…

constituted a privilege in life; she could well understand that conviction, but this only increased her envy” (Hall 47). Veritably, Hall was truly ahead of her time; she inspired a change of construct through this novel, teaching the uneducated about inversion and sexuality. However, some critics have thrown distaste at the novel’s end, saying Hall in the end conformed to heterosexual plot—making it “one thing or the other” (Green 289). Hall gave a voice to the new era and a voice to the…

According to Merriam-Webster’s dictionary, ‘sitcom’ is an abbreviated term for situational comedy and is defined as, “a show that is on television regularly and that is about a group of characters who are involved in different funny situations” (Merriam-Webster, 2017). Sitcoms are a progression of projects appeared on TV that ordinarily include a family or a nearby group of characters. Sitcoms appear to have been around as far back as television was presented to the family home, and are…

Sexuality, prior to the writings of nineteenth and twentieth century philosophers such as Freud and Foucault, wasn’t considered a field in the medical world. These men offered scientific answers to topics such as homosexuality and transexuality which were previously thought of as just sexual deviances. Due to the fact that the term sexuality was revolutionized in a medical sense certain historians would argue that, these philosophers and doctors “invented” sexuality by giving it medical backing.…

code of chivalry. According to the review work of Richard W. Kaeuper by Steven Muhlberger, “chivalry was 'a mixture of ideals and practices constantly critiqued by those who wanted to change both.’” () Once sworn in, readers are shown Lancelot’s inversion of Chivalry in Book Six. Throughout this book, Lancelot does the complete opposite of what he is supposed to do as a knight. There are seventeen chivalry codes in all. Throughout Book Six, Lancelot breaks several of these codes. The first…

Paris and Florence. Needless to say, he is a preeminent figure in the international art scene with work that demands direct engagement regardless of the location. His monumental sculptures challenge the way we see. For example, the Torqued Torus Inversion made of weatherproof steel in two thousand and six located in Germany. He once said in an interview with Kynaston McShine, that this particular concept is simple to understand, comparing…

original tone row. The four forms consist of the Prime Row (the original row discussed above), the Retrograde of the Prime Row (The prime row spelled backwards), the Inversion of the Prime Row(The prime row where intervals have been inverted to where a rising 3rd would become a falling 3rd, etc), and the Retrograde of the Inversion of the Prime Row(The backwards spelling of the inverted row). These four forms of the original tone row from Moses und Aron(C♯, D, G♯, F♯, G, F, B, A, B♭, C, E♭, E),…

The hate and bitterness of his “snarl” is the final implication as to how the Misfit feels about religion (O’Connor 645). Bellamy insists that the reason for the devilish message in the Misfit’s speech is due to his mission to play to role of the Anti-Christ. Bellamy asserts that, “The central message of the Misfit’s sermon, for a sermon is what his remarks amount to, is a familiar one in Flannery O’Connor’s fiction; there is no middle ground between absolute belief in Christ’s messianic fiction…

reaction also called “associative substitution” or “interchange mechanism.” The following figure illustrates the mechanism of SN2 reaction. Here, nucleophile attacks the opposite direction of the leaving group. Thus, SN2 reaction always leads to an inversion of stereochemistry. This reaction works best with methyl and primary halides because bulky alkyl groups block the backside attack of the nucleophile. In addition, the stability of the leaving group as an anion and the strength of its bond…

Whether such cases were meant to challenge American understandings of sexuality and sexual inversion is unknown because we are only left with sources that merely speculated on the lives of these individuals. As for the sources in Boag’s book, they range from newspaper articles to dime novels to medical publications to personal memoirs. It is also…
