Sigma bonds are _______ stable than pi bonds
more
In addition reactions, the double bonds acts as the _______ attacking the electrophilic species
nucleophile
_______ addition involves the pi e- attacking the + charge
electrophilic
_______ addition involves the Nuc- attacking the carbocation
nucleophile
In a regio_______ reaction: only one region attacked
specific
In a regio_______ reaction: major and minor products
selective
The addition of Hydrogen halides follows _______ rule: when adding H-X to db C, the H will add to the C with _______ H’s, leaving the X to the C with _______ H’s
markovnikov’s
more
less
For addition of hydrogen halides, stabilizing the _______ results in a faster reaction
C+ intermediate
Addition of Hydrogen halides results in _______ mixture if the product is chiral.
racemic
the addition of hydrogen halides also works for alkynes and may be performed twice by using _______ moles of H-X
2
add H to H rich side
_______ rule: when adding H-X to the db C, the H will add to the C with less H. In the presence of a peroxide!!!
anti-markovnikov
A db C may react with water in the presence of a strongly acidic catalyst (sulfuric and phosphoric acid) to form an alcohol. This reaction is known as _______
hydration
The goal of hydration is to add _______ “in place” of a double bond.
OH
What are the 3 types of hydration we learn in Ch. 8
1) regular (Markovnikov with Rearrangements)
2) oxymercuration-demercuration (Markovnikov with no rearrangements)
3) Hydroboration (anti-markovnikov with no rearrangements)
Oxymercuration-Demercuration leads to _______ of the H2O molecule to the Hg ring
anti-addition
