Hydrometallation Reactions Flashcards
1
Q
hydroboration
A
syn addition, B adds to least sterically hindered end, H2O2 and NaOH oxidise to alcohol product
2
Q
hydrozirconation
A
bulky Cp2Zr adds to less hindered end, syn addition, Zr substituent replaced by electrophile with retention
3
Q
hydroalumination
A
using H-Al-iBu, Al adds less hindered end due to sterics, syn addition, Al replaced by electrophile with retention
