The Bailar twist is a mechanism proposed for the racemization of octahedral complexes containing three bidentate chelate rings. Such complexes typically adopt an octahedral molecular geometry and are thus chiral.〔"Bailar Twist" in Encyclopedia of Inorganic Chemistry, John Wiley & Sons, 2006. 〕 One pathway by which these compounds can racemize is via the formation of a trigonal prismatic intermediate with D3h point group symmetry. An alternative pathway is called the Ray-Dutt twist. This pathway is called the Bailar twist in honor of John C. Bailar, Jr., an inorganic chemist who investigated this process. ==See also== * Pseudorotation * Bartell mechanism * Berry mechanism * Ray-Dutt twist * Fluxional molecule 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Bailar twist」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
