  2. Chemical synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_synthesis

    For example, the synthesis of paracetamol typically requires three separate reactions. Divergent synthesis starts with a common intermediate, which branches into multiple final products through distinct reaction pathways. Convergent synthesis synthesis involves the combination of multiple intermediates synthesized independently to create a ...

  3. Condensation reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Condensation_reaction

    Condensation reactions likely played major roles in the synthesis of the first biotic molecules including early peptides and nucleic acids.In fact, condensation reactions would be required at multiple steps in RNA oligomerization: the condensation of nucleobases and sugars, nucleoside phosphorylation, and nucleotide polymerization.

  4. Williamson ether synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Williamson_ether_synthesis

    The Williamson ether synthesis is an organic reaction, forming an ether from an organohalide and a deprotonated alcohol . This reaction was developed by Alexander Williamson in 1850. [2] Typically it involves the reaction of an alkoxide ion with a primary alkyl halide via an S N 2 reaction.

  5. McMurry reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McMurry_reaction

    In another example, the Nicolaou's total synthesis of Taxol uses this reaction, although coupling stops with the formation of a cis-diol, rather than an olefin. Optimized procedures employ the dimethoxyethane complex of TiCl 3 in combination with the Zn(Cu) .

  6. Cascade reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cascade_reaction

    The earliest example of a cascade reaction is arguably the synthesis of tropinone reported in 1917 by Robinson. [6] Since then, the use of cascade reactions has proliferated in the area of total synthesis. Similarly, the development of cascade-driven organic methodology has also grown tremendously.

  7. Strecker amino acid synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Strecker_amino_acid_synthesis

    One example of the Strecker synthesis is a multikilogram scale synthesis of an L-valine derivative starting from Methyl isopropyl ketone: [5] (CH 3) 2 CHC(O)CH 3 + HCN + NH 3 → (CH 3) 2 CHC(CN)(NH 2)CH 3 + H 2 O. The initial reaction product of 3-methyl-2butanone with sodium cyanide and ammonia is resolved by application of L-tartaric acid ...

  9. Chemical reaction - Wikipedia

    Their merger is called chemical synthesis or an addition reaction. + Another possibility is that only a portion of one molecule is transferred to the other molecule. This type of reaction occurs, for example, in redox and acid-base reactions. In redox reactions, the transferred particle is an electron, whereas in acid-base reactions it is a proton.
