  2. Ketene cycloaddition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketene_cycloaddition

    The progress of the reaction can be estimated by disappearance of the characteristic yellow color of the ketene, by loss of the band at about 2100 cm −1 in the infrared spectrum, or by 1 H NMR spectroscopy. Ketene, monoalkylketenes, and dimethylketene are usually allowed to react at or below room temperature, whereas the higher molecular ...

  3. ZACA reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ZACA_reaction

    The zirconium-catalyzed asymmetric carbo-alumination reaction (or ZACA reaction) was developed by Nobel laureate Ei-ichi Negishi. [1] It facilitates the chiral functionalization of alkenes using organoaluminium compounds under the influence of chiral bis-indenylzirconium catalysts (e.g. bearing chiral terpene residues, [2] as in (+)- or (−)-bis[(1-neomenthyl)indenyl]zirconium dichloride [3 ...

    It then appears that the reaction proceeds mainly by a trans mechanism and, following the Zaitsev rule, 1-methylcyclohexene is preferentially formed in the early stages of the reaction. Indeed, if only about 10% of the total distillate is collected as the first fraction, one finds that the alkene is about 93% l-methylcyclohexene: at the end of ...

  5. Sharpless asymmetric dihydroxylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sharpless_asymmetric_di...

    The introduction of chirality into nonchiral reactants through usage of chiral catalysts is an important concept in organic synthesis. This reaction was developed principally by K. Barry Sharpless building on the already known racemic Upjohn dihydroxylation, for which he was awarded a share of the 2001 Nobel Prize in Chemistry.

  6. Intramolecular Heck reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intramolecular_Heck_reaction

    The intramolecular Heck reaction (IMHR) in chemistry is the coupling of an aryl or alkenyl halide with an alkene in the same molecule. The reaction may be used to produce carbocyclic or heterocyclic organic compounds with a variety of ring sizes. Chiral palladium complexes can be used to synthesize chiral intramolecular Heck reaction products ...

  7. Asymmetric induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asymmetric_induction

    The Cram's rule of asymmetric induction named after Donald J. Cram states In certain non-catalytic reactions that diastereomer will predominate, which could be formed by the approach of the entering group from the least hindered side when the rotational conformation of the C-C bond is such that the double bond is flanked by the two least bulky groups attached to the adjacent asymmetric center. [3]

  8. Enantioselective synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enantioselective_synthesis

    Enantioselective synthesis, also called asymmetric synthesis, [1] is a form of chemical synthesis.It is defined by IUPAC as "a chemical reaction (or reaction sequence) in which one or more new elements of chirality are formed in a substrate molecule and which produces the stereoisomeric (enantiomeric or diastereomeric) products in unequal amounts."

  9. Heck reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heck_reaction

    This reaction was the first example of a carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction that followed a Pd(0)/Pd(II) catalytic cycle, the same catalytic cycle that is seen in other Pd(0)-catalyzed cross-coupling reactions. The Heck reaction is a way to substitute alkenes. [2] [3] [4] [5]
