The Wittig reaction involves reaction of an aldehyde or ketone with a Wittig reagent (or phosphorane) of the type Ph 3 P=CHR to produce an alkene and Ph 3 P=O. The Wittig reagent is itself prepared easily from triphenylphosphine and an alkyl halide.
A Tetrazine-Alkene reaction between a generalized tetrazine and a strained, trans-cyclooctene. Strained cyclooctenes and other activated alkenes react with tetrazines in an inverse electron-demand Diels-Alder followed by a retro [4+2] cycloaddition (see figure). [41]
Enone–alkene cycloadditions often suffer from side reactions, e.g. those associated with the diradical intermediate. These side reactions can often be minimized by a judicious choice of reaction conditions. Dissolved oxygen is avoided since it is photoreactive. A variety of solvents can be used.
In organosulfur chemistry, the thiol-ene reaction (also alkene hydrothiolation) is an organic reaction between a thiol (R−SH) and an alkene (R 2 C=CR 2) to form a thioether (R−S−R'). This reaction was first reported in 1905, [ 1 ] but it gained prominence in the late 1990s and early 2000s for its feasibility and wide range of applications.
In organic chemistry, ozonolysis is an organic reaction where the unsaturated bonds are cleaved with ozone (O 3). Multiple carbon–carbon bond are replaced by carbonyl (C=O) groups, such as aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids. The reaction is predominantly applied to alkenes, but alkynes and azo compounds are also susceptible to cleavage.
The Diels-Alder reaction, also known as cycloaddition, combines a conjugated diene and an alkene to form cycloalkene. This is a concerted process, with bonds forming and breaking simultaneously. This is a concerted process, with bonds forming and breaking simultaneously.
The insertion of alkenes into metal-hydrogen bonds is a key step in hydrogenation and hydroformylation reactions. The reaction involves the alkene and the hydride ligands combining within the coordination sphere of a catalyst. In hydrogenation, the resulting alkyl ligand combines with a second hydride to give the alkane.
The Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons (HWE) reaction is a chemical reaction used in organic chemistry of stabilized phosphonate carbanions with aldehydes (or ketones) to produce predominantly E-alkenes. [1] The Horner–Wadsworth–Emmons reaction. In 1958, Leopold Horner published a modified Wittig reaction using phosphonate-stabilized carbanions.
