How to use in-sentence of “steric”:
+ However, with steric hindered Grignard reagents, the reaction may proceed by single-electron transfer.
+ The steric strain is small in fluorine.
+ Also, the reaction rate was affected considerably by steric effects of 2-substituents, with more bulky groups increasing the rate of reaction.
+ When they are not aromatic, rings tend not to be flat to avoid steric effects.
+ They occur at a negligible rate in tertiary alkyl halides due to steric hindrance.
+ Additionally, bulky substituents on the central carbon increase the rate of carbocation formation because of the relief of steric strain that occurs.
+ In these cases, steric strain is often the driving force for the selectivity.
+ In other cases, the difference may be due to steric strain.
