Preferred Label : simultaneous reactions;
IUPAC definition : composite reactions, in which processes like \[{A}\ \overset{1}{\rightarrow }\ {Y}\]
and \[{B}\ \overset{2}{\rightarrow }\ {Z}\] occur in parallel, can be called simultaneous
or parallel reactions. Sometimes there is competition involved, like in the scheme:
\[{A}\, \,{B}\ \overset{1}{\rightarrow }\ {Y}\] and \[{A}\, \,{C}\ \overset{2}{\rightarrow
}\ {Z}\] where B and C compete with one another for A.;
