condensation reaction. Â© A Dictionary of Biology 2004, originally published by Oxford University Press 2004. condensation reaction A chemical reaction in which two molecules combine to form a larger molecule with the elimination of a small molecule (H2O in biological systems). See esterification; glycosidic bond; peptide.
In a condensation reaction, two molecules or parts thereof combine, releasing a small molecule. When this small molecule is water, it is known as a dehydration reaction. Other possible lost molecules include hydrogen chloride, methanol, and acetic acid. When two separate molecules react, their condensation is termed intermolecular. A simple example is the condensation of two amino acids to form a peptide. This reaction example is the reverse of hydrolysis, which splits a chemical entity into two parts through action from the polar water molecule, which itself splits into hydroxide and hydrogen ions.
