  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. Chromic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chromic_acid

    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]

  4. Bergman cyclization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergman_cyclization

    The reaction product is a derivative of benzene. Scheme 1. Bergman cyclization. The reaction proceeds by a thermal reaction or pyrolysis (above 200 °C) forming a short-lived and very reactive para-benzyne biradical species. It will react with any hydrogen donor such as 1,4-cyclohexadiene which converts to benzene.

  5. Cyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclic_compound

    none of the atoms are carbon (inorganic cyclic compounds), [2] or where; both carbon and non-carbon atoms are present (heterocyclic compounds with rings containing both carbon and non-carbon). Common atoms can (as a result of their valences) form varying numbers of bonds, and many common atoms readily form rings.

  6. Thermal rearrangement of aromatic hydrocarbons - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thermal_rearrangement_of...

    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.

  8. Heterocyclic compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heterocyclic_compound

    Likewise, the compounds with two benzene rings fused to the central heterocycle are carbazole, acridine, and dibenzoazepine. Thienothiophene are the fusion of two thiophene rings. Phosphaphenalenes are a tricyclic phosphorus-containing heterocyclic system derived from the carbocycle phenalene.

  9. 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.
