organic chemistry Flashcards
cyclopropane — alcohol
reagent:
condition
hydration
add h2o
reagent : sulphuric acid
condition : heat
cyclopropane —- straight chain alkane
reagent : hydrogen gas
condition : nickel as catalyst at 80c
alkene — diol
observation :
another special observation:
reagent: KMnO4
condition : cold , diluted
obv: purple decolourised
acidic Kmno4 will produce brown ppt MnO2
alkene — alcohol
hydration
r : steam h2o
c : h3PO4 as catalyst
300c
70atm
alkene – alkane
hydrogenation
r : h2
c : Ni at 140c
alkene – halogenoalkane
Halogenation
r : halogen
c : room temp + no sunlight/dark / no uv
alkene – c acid / ketone / co2+h2o
hot oxidation
r : KMnO4
c : hot , concentrated
aldehyde and methanoic acid conitnue to oxidise
ketone won’t
alkyne — alkene
r: h2
c: lindlar’s catalyst
alkyne – alkane

alkyne — aldehyde/ketone
r : h2o
c: heat at 60c with h2so4
ethyne and terminal alkyne use what to test
obv

say add what and come out what
add water and hydrogen cation
come out ammonium ion and carboxylic acid
nitrile — amine
direct
