Reactants Flashcards
KOC(CH3), NaOEt
:OC(CH3), :OEt Will steal Hydrogens from hydrocarbon chains to form double bonds (alkenes)
Also can form bonds to Carbons if there is an available leaving group (Br)
B2H2
Anti Markovnikov -OH (alcohol addition)
NaI
I- will replace Br- and Na+ will bind with Br
Na2Cr2O7
Cr 6+ will always form acetic acid O=C-OH with alkyl carbon
How to make -OH a leaving group?
Add HBr. The -OH will grab an H, become charged and leave, allowing Br to take its place on the hydrocarbon chain.
Ozone
Splits double and triple bonds, turning loose ends into acetic acids.
NaNH2
Powerful base that will take Hydrogens, even from triple bonded Carbons (alkynes)
SOCl2 and pyridine
With primary or secondary alcohols will produce R-Cl, SO2 and HCl
Dibromination Alkane
Free radical. Will add 2 Br’s to the tertiary Carbons.
Hydroboration (B2H6)
Breaks double bond of alkene to form anti markovnikov alcohol. Because Boron is more electropositive than H and therefore influences the H position
Dibromination Alkene
Forms triangular bromonium ion intermediate over the double bond and double bond breaks with trans addition of the second Bromide.
Adding Hg Alkene
A Markovnikov alcohol addition
Double bond O C-O-O-H Alkene
Epoxidation, secondary O will break double bond and form an epoxide over it.
