  2. Hydroacylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroacylation

    Hydroacylation is a type of organic reaction in which an electron-rich [1] unsaturated hydrocarbon inserts into a formyl C-H bond. With alkenes, the product is a ketone: RCHO + CH 2 =CHR' → RC(O)CH 2 CH 2 R' With an alkyne instead, the reaction produces an α,β-unsaturated ketone. [2] The reaction requires a metal catalyst or a radical ...

  3. Addition reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Addition_reaction

    Top to bottom: electrophilic addition to alkene, nucleophilic addition of nucleophile to carbonyl and free-radical addition of halide to alkene. Depending on the product structure, it could promptly react further to eject a leaving group to give the addition–elimination reaction sequence. Addition reactions are useful in analytic chemistry ...

  4. 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.

  5. Hydrocyanation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocyanation

    Usually the substrate is an alkene and the product is a nitrile. The reaction proceeds via the oxidative addition of HCN to a low-valent metal complex to give a hydrido cyanide complex. Subsequent binding of the alkene gives the intermediate M(H)(CN)L n (alkene), which then undergoes migratory insertion to give an alkylmetal

  6. Free-radical addition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Free-radical_addition

    In organic chemistry, free-radical addition is an addition reaction which involves free radicals. These reactions can happen due to the free radicals having an unpaired electron in their valence shell, making them highly reactive. [1] Radical additions are known for a variety of unsaturated substrates, both olefinic or aromatic and with or ...

  7. 1,4-Benzoquinone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,4-Benzoquinone

    The molecule is multifunctional: it exhibits properties of a ketone, being able to form oximes; an oxidant, forming the dihydroxy derivative; and an alkene, undergoing addition reactions, especially those typical for α,β-unsaturated ketones. 1,4-Benzoquinone is sensitive toward both strong mineral acids and alkali, which cause condensation ...

  8. Hydroamination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroamination

    The addition of hydrogen and an amino group (NR 2) using reagents other than the amine HNR 2 is known as a "formal hydroamination" reaction. Although the advantages of atom economy and/or ready available of the nitrogen source are diminished as a result, the greater thermodynamic driving force, as well as ability to tune the aminating reagent ...

  9. Nitrone-olefin (3+2) cycloaddition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrone-olefin_(3+2...

    The nitrone-olefin (3+2) cycloaddition reaction is the combination of a nitrone with an alkene or alkyne to generate an isoxazoline or isoxazolidine via a (3+2) cycloaddition process. [1] This reaction is a 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition, in which the nitrone acts as the 1,3-dipole, and the alkene or alkyne as the dipolarophile.
