random reagents specific jobs
HBr
——->
Peroxides (R-O-O-R)
antimarkov- add to the least stable positions
BH3, THF
—->
NaOH H2O2
antimarkov-antimarkov- add to the least stable positions
Hg(OAc)2/H2O/NaBH4
does not cause a hydride shift, forms a epoxide intermediate
O3/Me/S
the ozone
always makes a ketone and aldehyde!!!!!!!
KMnO4/OH with heat
always make COOH and ketone!
NaBH4 not as strong, selective
converts ketones and aldehydes to alcohols
DiBAI-H
reduces esters to aldehyde
LiAlH4/THF
reduced ketones, COOH to alcohols
PCC
oxidizing agent makes 1* alcohols to aldehyde
and 2* into Ketone
CrO3/H2SO4/H2O
converts 1* alcohol to COOH
KMnO4/OH? H*
converts Alcohols to COOH or Ketone, but also 2x bonds to COOH
LiAIH(OBU)
COOH and dervi(COO) into amldehyde only!!!!!!AHHHAAHAHA
TsCl is used for
making OH a good leaving group and making esters! and works as a protecting group
KMnO4 , OH, heat can..
cleave the 2x bond
what type of additions are epoxides
they are syn addition, meaning same side
