hydrogen acceptor

It is used as a hydrogen acceptor and oxidant in organic synthesis.

Chloroanil, more so than benzil, serves as a hydrogen acceptor.

Many bacteria use inorganic compounds as hydrogen acceptors to regenerate the NAD.

Hydrogen acceptor on inosinate oxidation is NAD+.

In addition, aspartic acid acts as hydrogen acceptor in a chain of ATP synthase.

The tyrosine acts as an efficient hydrogen acceptor while the lysine covalently binds and stabilizes the intermediates.

This is a terrific catalyst because it eliminates the need for a hydrogen acceptor, something which is normally required for the silation of a C-H bond.

Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NADH), a derivative of vitamin B (niacin), is an important coenzyme that acts as a hydrogen acceptor.

The DIAD is reduced as it serves as the hydrogen acceptor, and the PPh is oxidized to OPPh.

Under natural geological conditions, anaerobic bacteria Desulfovibrion desulfuricans and Desulfobibrio orientis consume methane as a source of energy and use sulfur from gypsum as a hydrogen acceptor to produce hydrogen sulfide.

The reaction is somewhat similar to the Mitsunobu Reaction, where the combination of an organophosphine as an oxide acceptor, a diazo compound as a hydrogen acceptor reagent, and a nucleophile are used to convert alcohols to esters and other applications like this.

This process is referred to as the PHOTOLYSIS OF WATER since the overall effect is to split water molecules into oxygen and hydrogen, the oxygen being evolved in molecular form while the hydrogen combines with a hydrogen acceptor.
