In recent times the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexene by (immobilized) metalloporphyrin complexes has been found to be an efficient way. [7] [8] In laboratory, cyclohexene oxide can also be prepared by reacting cyclohexene with magnesium monoperoxyphthalate (MMPP) in a mixture of isopropanol and water as solvent at room temperature. [9]
The reagent is an alkaline solution of potassium permanganate. Reaction with double or triple bonds (R 2 C=CR 2 or R−C≡C−R) causes the color to fade from purplish-pink to brown. Aldehydes and formic acid (and formates) also give a positive test. [43] The test is antiquated. Baeyer's reagent reaction
Aliquat 336 is used as a phase transfer catalyst, [2] including in the catalytic oxidation of cyclohexene to 1,6-hexanedioic acid. [3] This reaction is an example of green chemistry, as it is more environmentally friendly than the traditional method of oxidizing cyclohexanol or cyclohexanone with nitric acid or potassium permanganate, which produce hazardous wastes.
Cyclohexene is a hydrocarbon with the formula (CH 2) 4 C 2 H 2. It is an example of a cycloalkene. At room temperature, cyclohexene is a colorless liquid with a sharp odor. Among its uses, it is an intermediate in the commercial synthesis of nylon. [3]
The increase in the oxidation state of an atom, through a chemical reaction, is known as oxidation; a decrease in oxidation state is known as a reduction. Such reactions involve the formal transfer of electrons: a net gain in electrons being a reduction, and a net loss of electrons being oxidation.
Oxidation of 1-methylcyclohexene catalyzed by cytochrome P450 yields a 2:1 mixture of hydroxylation to epoxidation products. [4] The stereochemistry of hydroformylation has been examined using 1-methylcyclohexene. The main product has the formyl group on the less substituted alkene-carbon, trans with respect to the methyl substituent.
The Pinnick oxidation is an organic reaction by which aldehydes can be oxidized into their corresponding carboxylic acids using sodium chlorite (NaClO 2) under mild acidic conditions. It was originally developed by Lindgren and Nilsson. [1] The typical reaction conditions used today were developed by G. A. Kraus.
The chemical chameleon reaction shows the process in reverse, by reducing violet potassium permanganate first to green potassium manganate and eventually to brown manganese dioxide: [1] [2] [5] KMnO 4 (violet) → K 2 MnO 4 (green) → MnO 2 (brown/yellow suspension) Blue potassium hypomanganate may also form as an intermediate.
