Option 1
Stub article, introduces the reaction and describes it. The article does not draw out the mechanism of the reaction and gives only one example - the "ene" reaction. As well, there are no mentions of its applications in organic chemistry (such as usage in studies/experiments) and a "See Also" section for links to related articles. Dinda, B. (2017). Group Transfer Reactions. In: Essentials of Pericyclic and Photochemical Reactions. Lecture Notes in Chemistry, vol 93. Springer, Cham. https://doi.org/10.1007/978-3-319-45934-9_5

Option 2
Stub article, does not show the mechanism of how ketenimines are formed. The only figure present is a picture of a general ketenimine structure. As well, the article does not entail the types of reactions that form ketenimines and a "See Also" section for related articles. Lu, P., & Wang, Y. (2012). The thriving chemistry of ketenimines. Chemical Society Reviews, 41(17), 5687-575. https://doi.org/10.1039/c2cs35159e

Option 3
Stub article, does not contain any diagrams or figures to aid the understanding of the topic. As well, although it specifies the reaction proceeds via a thioester bond (which does have an article of its own), it would be helpful to show the mechanism of at least one example. The article mentions certain applications of the reaction, but does not go into detail on specific applications that S-acylation has been applied to. Li, Y., & Qi, B. (2017). Progress toward understanding protein S-acylation: Prospective in plants. Frontiers in Plant Science, 8, 346-346. https://doi.org/10.3389/fpls.2017.00346

Option 4
Article Evaluation:
 * Article title: Cholestene

A stub article that briefly defines what cholestenes are. There is a figure on the right that provides the structure of cholestine, however other information is missing (such as chemical and physical properties, uses, synthesis and mechanism).

Option 5
A stub article that does not contain references but provides several examples of this class of compounds. There are also details missing - such as previous studies synthesizing pyrimidinediones, physical and chemical properties of certain examples, and details into its applications toward drug delivery (it only lists names of drugs that belong to this class but does not provide context, structure, and mechanistic reaction).
