  2. Prilezhaev reaction - Wikipedia

    For example, the relative rates of epoxidation increase upon methyl substitution of the alkene (the methyl groups increase the electron density of the double bond by hyperconjugation): ethylene (1, no methyl groups), propene (24, one methyl group), cis-2-butene (500, two methyl groups), 2-methyl-2-butene (6500, three methyl groups), 2,3 ...

  3. Methylpentene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methylpentene

    Methylpentene is an alkene with a molecular formula C 6 H 12.The prefix "methyl-" is derived from the fact that there is a methyl(CH 3) branch, the word root "-pent-" is derived from the fact that there are 5 carbon atoms in the parent chain, while the "-ene" suffix denotes that there is a double bond present, as per IUPAC nomenclature. [1]

  4. Cis–trans isomerism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cis–trans_isomerism

    For octahedral complexes of formula MX 4 Y 2, two isomers also exist. (Here M is a metal atom, and X and Y are two different types of ligands.) In the cis isomer, the two Y ligands are adjacent to each other at 90°, as is true for the two chlorine atoms shown in green in cis-[Co(NH 3) 4 Cl 2] +, at left.

    But by tweaking this structure to a PR 3 Ta(CHt−bu)(Ot−bu) 2 Cl (replacing chloride by t-butoxide and a cyclopentadienyl by an organophosphine, metathesis was established with cis-2-pentene. [45] In another development, certain tungsten oxo complexes of the type W(O)(CHt−Bu)(Cl) 2 (PEt) 3 were also found to be effective. [46]

  6. Pentene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pentene

    Pentenes are alkenes with the chemical formula C 5 H 10.Each molecule contains one double bond within its molecular structure. Six different compounds are in this class, differing from each other by whether the carbon atoms are attached linearly or in a branched structure and whether the double bond has a cis or trans form.

    C 2 H 4 + 1/ 2 O 2 → C 2 H 4 O. Alkenes react with ozone, leading to the scission of the double bond. The process is called ozonolysis. Often the reaction procedure includes a mild reductant, such as dimethylsulfide (SMe 2): RCH=CHR' + O 3 + SMe 2 → RCHO + R'CHO + O=SMe 2 R 2 C=CHR' + O 3 → R 2 CHO + R'CHO + O=SMe 2

  8. Zaytsev's rule - Wikipedia

    [2] [3] Although the paper contained some original research done by Zaytsev's students, it was largely a literature review and drew heavily upon previously published work. [4] In it, Zaytsev proposed a purely empirical rule for predicting the favored regiochemistry in the dehydrohalogenation of alkyl iodides, though it turns out that the rule ...

  9. Ketene cycloaddition - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketene_cycloaddition

    The periselectivity of a particular reaction depends on the structure of both the ketene and the substrate. Although the reaction is predominantly used to form four-membered rings, a limited number of substrates undergo [3+2] or [4+2] reactions with ketenes. Examples of all three modes of cycloaddition are discussed in this section.
