  2. Buchner ring expansion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buchner_ring_expansion

    The reaction mechanism of a Buchner ring expansion begins with carbene formation from ethyl-diazoacetate generated initially through photochemical or thermal reactions with extrusion of nitrogen. carbene mechanism. The generated carbene adds to one of the double bonds of benzene to form the cyclopropane ring. carbene insertion

  3. Alcohol oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_oxidation

    Alcohol oxidation is a collection of oxidation reactions in organic chemistry that convert alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters. The reaction mainly applies to primary and secondary alcohols. Secondary alcohols form ketones, while primary alcohols form aldehydes or carboxylic acids. [1] A variety of oxidants can be used.

  4. Jones oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jones_oxidation

    The reaction stoichiometry implicates the Cr(IV) species "CrO 2 OH −", which comproportionates with the chromic acid to give a Cr(V) oxide, which also functions as an oxidant for the alcohol. [ 6 ] The oxidation of the aldehydes is proposed to proceed via the formation of hemiacetal -like intermediates, which arise from the addition of the O ...

    It is a Lewis acid and can react with a Lewis base, such as pyridine in a non-aqueous medium such as dichloromethane (Collins reagent). Structure of tetrachromic acid H 2 Cr 4 O 13 ·2H 2 O, one component of concentrated "chromic acid". The H-atom positions are calculated, not observed. Color code: red = O, white = H, blue = Cr. [7]

  6. Thermal rearrangement of aromatic hydrocarbons - Wikipedia

    These reactions can be categorized in two major types: one that involves a complete and permanent skeletal reorganization (isomerization), and one in which the atoms are scrambled but no net change in the aromatic ring occurs (automerization). [1] The general reaction schemes of the two types are illustrated in Figure 1.

  7. Cross-coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross-coupling_reaction

    Often cross-coupling reactions require metal catalysts. One important reaction type is this: R−M + R'−X → R−R' + MX (R, R' = organic fragments, usually aryl; M = main group center such as Li or MgX; X = halide) These reactions are used to form carboncarbon bonds but also carbon-heteroatom bonds.

    Aviation accounts for 2.5% of worldwide carbon emissions; tourist emissions account for 9% of the global total, and they've grown by 3.5% per year between 2009 and 2019. Increased demand means ...

  9. Markovnikov's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovnikov's_rule

    Such reactions are said to be anti-Markovnikov, since the halogen adds to the less substituted carbon, the opposite of a Markovnikov reaction. The anti-Markovnikov rule can be illustrated using the addition of hydrogen bromide to isobutylene in the presence of benzoyl peroxide or hydrogen peroxide. The reaction of HBr with substituted alkenes ...
