lecture 3 Flashcards
🌷how is DMDO made
acetone + KHSO5
gives DMDO
name dmdo
di methyl dioxirane
what is KHSO5
potassium
peroxy mono sulfate
what is KHSO5 used for🌷
used to react with acetone to give dmdo
highlight the 2 step process to making epoxiranes🌷
alkene + Br2 and H2O (bromonium ion then open it using H2O)
bromonium ion + NaOH (removes most acidic H)
arrow kicks off Br using O- on the alcoholate
epoxilate is made with NaBr
in the reaction of making epoxirane, what is used to ring open the bromonium ion
H2O
in the epoxirane, what is used to remove the most acidic H
NaOH
describe an alcoholate🌷
O-
with a halogen on adjacent C
how is an epoxide made from the alcoholate
the - charge is used to kick off the bromine (good LG)
and forms an epoxide
what is a toluene
benzene with CH3 attached
how is an epoxide made from a toluene🌷
liver oxidase and O2
McBPA cannot react with aromatics
🌷 cyclohexane epoxide with HNMe2
N: attacks the other side of the epoxide
the NHMe ring opens the epoxide
the product is trans (one dashed one wedged) the O from the epoxide grabs a H. NHMe loses a H to make the N neutral
asymmetric epoxide with NaOMe and MeOH (stereospecific ring opening reaction 1 ) BASE CATALYSED EPOXIDE RING OPENING🌷
the O- in NaOMe attacks the less hindered C and ring opens the epoxide
the O- epoxide grabs the H in HOMe
this gives an OH and an COMe alkene
asymmetric epoxide with H+ and MeOH ( 2nd stereospecific ring opening reaction ) ACID CATALYSED EPOXIDE RING OPENING🌷
the epoxide is placed in an acidic environment (lots of H+) + is protonated
the O: attacks a H+ and forms an alcohol epoxide (still a ring)
then the MeOH ring opens it at the most stable section. gives an OH and OMe alkene
🌷what do the reaction conditions of epoxides determine
determine what carbon will be attacked to ring open
