  2. Piranha solution - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Piranha_solution

    One can see bubbles of gaseous O 2 formed by the coalescence of nascent atomic oxygen produced by the reaction between hydrogen peroxide and sulfuric acid. Piranha solution is used frequently in the microelectronics industry, e.g. to clean photoresist or organic material residue from silicon wafers .

  3. 1,4-Benzoquinone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,4-Benzoquinone

    It is used as a hydrogen acceptor and oxidant in organic synthesis. [15] 1,4-Benzoquinone serves as a dehydrogenation reagent. It is also used as a dienophile in Diels Alder reactions. [16] Benzoquinone reacts with acetic anhydride and sulfuric acid to give the triacetate of hydroxyquinol.

  4. Alkenyl peroxides - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkenyl_peroxides

    The radicals formed from alkenyl peroxides can be utilized in organic radical reactions. For example, they can mediate hydrogen atom abstraction reactions and thus lead to the functionalization of C-H bonds, [7] or they can be used to introduce ketone residues by addition of the alkenyloxyl radicals to alkenes. [8] [9] [10]

  5. Milas hydroxylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Milas_hydroxylation

    The Milas hydroxylation is an organic reaction converting an alkene to a vicinal diol, and was developed by Nicholas A. Milas in the 1930s. [1] [2] The cis-diol is formed by reaction of alkenes with hydrogen peroxide and either ultraviolet light or a catalytic osmium tetroxide, [3] vanadium pentoxide, or chromium trioxide.

  6. Dihydroxylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dihydroxylation

    The turnover-limiting step of the reaction is the hydrolysis step; therefore, sulfuric acid is added to increase the rate of this step. [ 17 ] [ 18 ] Manganese is also used in dihydroxylation and is often chosen when osmium tetroxide methods yield poor results. [ 18 ]

  8. Wharton reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wharton_reaction

    The mechanism of the Wharton reaction. The Wharton olefin synthesis allows the transformation of an α,β unsaturated ketone into an allylic alcohol. The epoxide starting material can be generated by a number of methods, with the most common being reaction of the corresponding alkene with hydrogen peroxide or m-chloroperoxybenzoic acid. The ...

  9. Fenton's reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fenton's_reagent

    The first stage of Fenton's reaction (oxidation of Fe 3+ with hydrogen peroxide) is used in Haber–Weiss reaction; Fenton's reagent can be used in organic synthesis reactions: e.g. hydroxylation of arenes via a free radical substitution; Conversion of benzene into phenol by using Fenton's reagent; Oxidation of barbituric acid into alloxan.
