  2. Markovnikov's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markovnikov's_rule

    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 was prototypical in the study of free-radical additions. Early chemists discovered that the reason for the variability in the ratio of ...

  3. Oxymercuration reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxymercuration_reaction

    The reaction follows Markovnikov's rule (the hydroxy group will always be added to the more substituted carbon). The oxymercuration part of the reaction involves anti addition of OH group but the demercuration part of the reaction involves free radical mechanism and is not stereospecific, i.e. H and OH may be syn or anti to each other.

  4. Hydrohalogenation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrohalogenation

    By reaction with tertiary amines, long-chain alkyl bromides such as 1-bromododecane, give quaternary ammonium salts, which are used as phase transfer catalysts. [9] With Michael acceptors the addition is also anti-Markovnikov because now a nucleophilic X − reacts in a nucleophilic conjugate addition for example in the reaction of HCl with ...

  5. Syn and anti addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syn_and_anti_addition

    In organic chemistry, syn-and anti-addition are different ways in which substituent molecules can be added to an alkene (R 2 C=CR 2) or alkyne (RC≡CR).The concepts of syn and anti addition are used to characterize the different reactions of organic chemistry by reflecting the stereochemistry of the products in a reaction.

  6. Markov's principle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Markov's_principle

    For each real number x, if it is contradictory that x is equal to 0, then there exists a real number y such that xy = 1. Modified realizability does not justify Markov's principle, even if classical logic is used in the meta-theory: there is no realizer in the language of simply typed lambda calculus as this language is not Turing-complete and ...

  7. Hydroboration–oxidation reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroboration–oxidation...

    Hydroboration–oxidation is an anti-Markovnikov reaction, with the hydroxyl group attaching to the less-substituted carbon. The reaction thus provides a more stereospecific and complementary regiochemical alternative to other hydration reactions such as acid-catalyzed addition and the oxymercuration–reduction process.

  8. Vladimir Markovnikov - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vladimir_Markovnikov

    Vladimir Markovnikov was born on December 22, 1837, in Chernorechye near Nizhny Novgorod, Russian Empire (now Dzerzhinsk, Nizhny Novgorod Oblast, Russian Federation). Soon after his birth, his father retired and settled in a family estate received as a dowry from his wife's family at marriage, in the village of Ivanovo, Knyagininsky district of the Nizhny Novgorod province, where Markovnikov ...

  9. Regioselectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regioselectivity

    Various examples of regioselectivity have been formulated as rules for certain classes of compounds under certain conditions, many of which are named. Among the first introduced to chemistry students are Markovnikov's rule for the addition of protic acids to alkenes , and the Fürst-Plattner rule for the addition of nucleophiles to derivatives ...
