  2. Kharasch–Sosnovsky reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kharasch–Sosnovsky_reaction

    The Kharasch–Sosnovsky reaction is a method that involves using a copper or cobalt salt as a catalyst to oxidize olefins at the allylic position, subsequently condensing a peroxy ester (e.g. tert-Butyl peroxybenzoate) or a peroxide resulting in the formation of allylic benzoates or alcohols via radical oxidation. [1]

  3. Sharpless epoxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpless_epoxidation

    The Sharpless epoxidation is viable with a large range of primary and secondary alkenic alcohols. Furthermore, with the exception noted above, a given dialkyl tartrate will preferentially add to the same face independent of the substitution on the alkene.To demonstrate the synthetic utility of the Sharpless epoxidation, the Sharpless group created synthetic intermediates of various natural ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tsuji–Trost_reaction

    The Tsuji–Trost reaction (also called the Trost allylic alkylation or allylic alkylation) is a palladium-catalysed substitution reaction involving a substrate that contains a leaving group in an allylic position. The palladium catalyst first coordinates with the allyl group and then undergoes oxidative addition, forming the π-allyl complex.

  5. Copper-catalyzed allylic substitution - Wikipedia

    There have been several enantioselective versions of this reaction developed, and even employed in synthesis of complex molecules. Hoyveda's synthesis of ( R )-(-)-sporochnol included an asymmetric copper-catalyzed allylic substitution with an organozinc nucleophile and peptide ligand.

  6. Jacobsen epoxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacobsen_epoxidation

    Jacobsen's catalysts R = Alkyl, O-alkyl, O-trialkyl Best Jacobsen catalyst: R = t Bu Katsuki's catalysts R 1 = Aryl, substituted aryl R 2 = Aryl, Alkyl. The Jacobsen epoxidation, sometimes also referred to as Jacobsen-Katsuki epoxidation is a chemical reaction which allows enantioselective epoxidation of unfunctionalized alkyl- and aryl- substituted alkenes.

  7. Stereoselectivity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stereoselectivity

    The Sharpless epoxidation is an example of an enantioselective process, in which an achiral allylic alcohol substrate is transformed into an optically active epoxyalcohol. In the case of chiral allylic alcohols, kinetic resolution results. Another example is Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation. In the example below the achiral alkene yields ...

    COVID-19 Antigen Rapid Test Kit; the timer is provided by the user. Mucus from nose or throat in a test liquid is placed onto a COVID-19 rapid antigen diagnostic test device. COVID-19 rapid testing in Rwanda. An antigen is the part of a pathogen that elicits an immune response. Antigen tests look for antigen proteins from the viral surface.

  9. Epoxidation of allylic alcohols - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Epoxidation_of_allylic...

    For cyclic allylic alcohols, greater selectivity is seen when the alcohol is locked in the pseudo equatorial position rather than the pseudo axial position. [2] However, it was found that for metal catalyzed systems such as those based on vanadium, reaction rates were accelerated when the hydroxyl group was in the axial position by a factor of 34.
