  2. Carbon–hydrogen bond activation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–hydrogen_bond...

    Other mechanistic possibilities not involving direct C–H bond cleavage by the metal include (i) generation of arylmetal species by electrophilic aromatic substitution mechanism (common for electrophilic Pd, Pt, Au, Hg species), (ii) cleavage of the C–H bond via hydrogen atom abstraction by an O- or N-centered radical, which may then go on ...

  3. Methyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methyl_group

    For example, protonation of methanol gives an electrophilic methylating reagent that reacts by the S N 2 pathway: CH 3 OH + H + → [CH 3 OH 2] + Similarly, methyl iodide and methyl triflate are viewed as the equivalent of the methyl cation because they readily undergo S N 2 reactions by weak nucleophiles. The methyl cation has been detected in ...

  4. Coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coupling_reaction

    The most common type of coupling reaction is the cross coupling reaction. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Richard F. Heck , Ei-ichi Negishi , and Akira Suzuki were awarded the 2010 Nobel Prize in Chemistry for developing palladium-catalyzed cross coupling reactions .

  5. Agostic interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Agostic_interaction

    The term agostic is reserved to describe two-electron, three-center bonding interactions between carbon, hydrogen, and a metal. Two-electron three-center bonding is clearly implicated in the complexation of H 2 , e.g., in W(CO) 3 (PCy 3 ) 2 H 2 , which is closely related to the agostic complex shown in the figure. [ 8 ]

  6. Transition metal carbene complex - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transition_metal_carbene...

    Examples include ((CH 3) 3 CCH 2)Ta=CHC(CH 3) 3 [9] and Os(PPh 3) 2 (NO)Cl(=CH 2). [10] Orbital interaction in the bonding of a Schrock carbene. Both the metal and carbon provide 2 unpaired electron each, forming the double bond. Bonding in such complexes can be viewed as the coupling of a triplet state metal and triplet carbene, forming a true ...

  7. Haloform reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haloform_reaction

    In chemistry, the haloform reaction (also referred to as the Lieben haloform reaction) is a chemical reaction in which a haloform (CHX 3, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of an acetyl group (R−C(=O)CH 3, where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl group), in the presence of a base.

  8. Hydrogen auto-transfer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_auto-transfer

    [1] [2] Mechanism of one type of carbonyl addition hydrogen auto-transfer reaction involving hydrometalation (step 2). [ 3 ] Hydrogen auto-transfer , also known as borrowing hydrogen , is the activation of a chemical reaction by temporary transfer of two hydrogen atoms from the reactant to a catalyst and return of those hydrogen atoms back to a ...

  9. Methanium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanium

    In chemistry, methanium is a complex positive ion with formula [C H 5] + (metastable transitional form, a carbon atom covalently bonded to five hydrogen atoms) or [CH 3 (H 2)] + (fluxional form, namely a molecule with one carbon atom covalently bonded to three hydrogen atoms and one dihydrogen molecule), bearing a +1 electric charge.
