kemoselektiivisessä
Kemoselektiivisyys refers to the ability of a chemical reagent or catalyst to react with one functional group in a molecule while leaving other functional groups unaffected. This selectivity is crucial in organic synthesis, allowing chemists to perform specific transformations without the need for protecting groups, which can add extra steps and reduce overall yield.
Several factors influence chemoselectivity. These include the inherent reactivity of different functional groups under specific reaction
Catalysts, especially enzymes, are often highly chemoselective. Enzymes can distinguish between very similar functional groups, facilitating
