In organic chemistry, the ene reaction (also known as the Alder-ene reaction by its discoverer Kurt Alder in 1943) is a chemical reaction between an alkene with an allylic hydrogen (the ene) and a compound containing a multiple bond (the enophile), in order to form a new σ-bond with migration of the ene double bond and 1,5 hydrogen shift.
In organic chemistry, a group transfer reaction is a class of the pericyclic reaction where one or more groups of atoms is transferred from one molecule to another. Group transfer reactions can sometimes be difficult to identify when separate reactant molecules combine into a single product molecule (like in the ene reaction).
The metal-mediated processes include a carbonyl-olefination and an olefin–olefin metathesis event. There are two general mechanistic schemes to perform this overall transformation: one, reaction of a [M=CHR 1] reagent with an alkene to generate a new metal alkylidene, which then couples with a carbonyl group to form the desired substituted alkene and an inactive [M=O] species (type A); two ...
In organic chemistry, the Conia-ene reaction is an intramolecular cyclization reaction between an enolizable carbonyl such as an ester or ketone and an alkyne or alkene, giving a cyclic product with a new carbon-carbon bond.
Stork enamine reaction with alkyl halides. In this method a carbonyl compound is condensed to a Schiff base. The imine then reacts with a Grignard reagent to the corresponding Hauser base. This species' negative charge enables displacing a less reactive alkyl halide, including methyl, ethyl, and other nonactivated halides.
In organic chemistry, the oxy-Cope rearrangement is a chemical reaction.It involves reorganization of the skeleton of certain unsaturated alcohols. It is a variation of the Cope rearrangement in which 1,5-dien-3-ols are converted to unsaturated carbonyl compounds by a mechanism typical for such a [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement.
A hydrogen on the α position of a carbonyl compound is weakly acidic and can be removed by a strong base to yield an enolate ion. In comparing acetone (pK a = 19.3) with ethane (pK a = 60), for instance, the presence of a neighboring carbonyl group increases the acidity of the ketone over the alkane by a factor of 10 40.
