Markov after of h and oh
1)Breaks c=c double bond forms
H2C-HgOAc on outer and adds oh to other
2) HgOAc comes off leaving CH3
Oxymercuration-demercuration
HBr, peroxide, heat/light
Antimarkov add of Br
C=C pi bond breaks
Br to less sub C
1) BH3, THF
2) H2O2, NaOH, water
Antimark add of cis oh&h trans to ch3
1) C=C pi bond breaks
Less substituted grabs bh2
2) bh2 comes off leaving oh
HX, cold, dark, no peroxide
x=cl, Br, I
Markov add of X
C=C pi bond breaks
X bonds to more sub C
Br2
Trans 2 Br’s added
one then other
Alkene c=c pi breaks
MCPBA
Or
Perot acid
Added to alkene to form episode ring
Oxidation of Alkene
c=c pi bond breaks
C-C-O ring forms (epoxied ring)
1) strong base (nucleophile)
2) diluted acid (watery acid)
Epoxide ring opening (basic conditions)
Antimarkov OR w
1) Epoxide ring opens leaving O- on most sub C, OR adds to least sub C
2) h bonds to o- to give oh on most sub C (oh on most sub c)
H+ (H3O+)
HOR
Epoxied ring opening (acidic conditions)
Markov OR added
H added to epoxide ring tip
Epoxied ring opens to least sub C
OH on least sub C
OR bonds to most sub C
Br2, HOR
Markov addition of Br and OR to alkene
c=c pi bond breaks
Br bonds to least sub C
OR bonds to most sub C
CHCl3, KOH
Or
CH2I2, Zn(Cu)
Alkene Forms cyclopropane ring
C=C pi bond breaks
C-C-C ring forms
H2, Pt0 or Pd0
Syn add of h on bottom
C=c bond breaks
CH3 on Both C’s move up
H’s come up from bottom and bond to each C cis to each other
Catalytic hydrogenation
1) BH3, THF
2) H2O2, NaOH, H2O
Hydroboration oxidation
Antimark cis oh and h
trans to ch3
1) Alkene C=C bond breaks
OH bonds to least sub C after H bonds to most sub C
OH and H are cis to each other
H2/ Pt or Pd metal
Alkyne to Alkane
Breaks both pi bonds in cc triple bond
Replaced with H’s
H2 / Ni2B
Or
H2/ lindlar catalyst
Alkyne to cis Alkene
Only breaks one pi bond of c
Leaves cis Alkene
Na0 (sodium metal)
NH3(l) (liquid ammonia)
Alkyne to Trans Alkene
Only breaks one pi bond of triple bond
Forms Trans Alkene
PCC
Oxidation of primary (1*) alcohol to aldehyde
Breaks h off C
Breaks h off the O forms double bond from C=O
Forms aldehyde
KMnO4 Or Na2Cr2O7/acid/water Or CrO3/acid/water Or Pcc
Oxidation of secondary (2*) alcohol to ketone
Break h of C
Breaks h of O
c=o and c bonded to 2 R forms ketone
Or aldehyde into carboxylate acid adds O to H
Or 1* alcohol into carboxylic acid breaks of 2 H’s from c and 1 from o
O=C bond forms and oh off c
Carboxylic acid
1) OsO4
2) H2O2 or NaHSO3
Syn add of two OH groups to pi bond
1) Pi bond breaks two sun o’s attach to form Pental ring with Os at peak with 2 double bonds to 2 O’s
2) ring breaks of leaving only cis os which form oh’s
1) ozone O3
2) Zn, acetic acid
Ozonolysis
Turns to ketone and aldehyde
C=C bond cleaved with two O cap
Ex: c=o c=o
h stays h
