Q

What happens during an Alkene Addition of H-X? Do we need to know the mechanism?

A

Hydrogen attaches to the least substituted C of the double bond, producing a carbocation. After a potential carbocation rearrangement, the halogen attaches to the carbocation

X attaches the the most substituted side, with possible carbocation rearrangement

Q

What happens in an Oxidative Cleavage reaction of Alkenes with HOT, basic Permanganate, then H+? Do we need to know the mechanism?

A

Depending on the alkene, different products will form. A double bond O will replace the double bond on each side, and an OH will replace each H bonded to the carbons.

H2C= -> (OH)2C=O (Carbonic Acid) -> CO2 +H2O

RHC-> (OH)(R)C=O (Carboxylic Acid)

R2C -> R2C=O (Ketone)
We do not need to know the mechanism

Q

What happens in a Cleavage of Alkenes via Ozonolysis (O3) reaction (Me2S is also added)? Do we need to know the mechanism?

A

Depending on the alkene, different products will form. The double bond will be cleaved by oxygen; oxygen will attach to the double bond on both sides. This will form either aldehydes (at least one H) or ketones.
We do not need to know the mechanism.

Q

What happens in an Addition Reaction to Alkynes? Do we need to know the mechanism?

A

Each time you add HX, the H will go to the less substituted side and the X will attach to the more substituted side. If you do the reaction twice, the two halogens will attach to the same side/carbon (forming a geminal dihalide). We do not need to know the mechanism.

Q

What happens in an Addition reaction of Dihalogens(X2) to Alkynes in Organic solvents? Do we need to know the mechanism?
