…kinda markovnikov coded

13
New cards

alkene + O3 + (CH3)2S

cut double bond, cauterize each wound w/ a double bond O

don’t mess w/ other parts

this is workup!

14
New cards

alkene + O3 + H2O2

cut DB, cauterize each wound w/ a double bond O, then an H on the less sub C turns into an OH too

this is NOT workup! DO mess with other parts.

15

23
New cards

alkene + carbene

cyclopropane, triangle across C-C with carbene sticking out on top

24
New cards

alkyne + Hg(2+) + H2O + H2SO4

no more triple bond. DB O on the more sub C, two H’s on the less.

disubbed alkynes make a mix, =O can come out of either side.

markovnikov approved

25
New cards

alkyne + [loss]-BH2 + THF + H2O2 + -OH group

this is hydroboration oxidation

no more alkyne. DB O out of the start of it, turn rest into alkane

enol intermediate: OH goes on less sub C, H on more (anti-markovnikov)

26
New cards

alkyne + Sia2BH + H2O2 + -OH group

this is hydroboration oxidation.

no more alkyne. DB O out of the start of it, turn rest into alkane

enol intermediate: OH goes on less sub C, H on more (anti-markovnikov)

27
New cards

alkyne + 9-BBN + H2O2 + -OH group

this is hydroboration oxidation.

no more alkyne. DB O out of the start of it, turn rest into alkane

enol intermediate: OH goes on less sub C, H on more (anti-markovnikov)

28
New cards

alkene + HBr + O-O

Br on less sub C, H on more sub C (evil evil peroxides)

anti-markovnikov

29
New cards

Initiation

Evil evil peroxides crash out and take out bystanders with it

R-O⋅ + H-BR = R-OH and new Br⋅ (the new evil one)

30
New cards

Propogation

new evil radical attacks alkene, evil Br now satisfied but other C of the alkene is now evil

evil Br adds to LESS SUB C to form more stable radical

anti-markovnikov!

31
New cards

Termination

rad + rad = no more rads

32
New cards

alcohol + HX + water

this is protonation.

replace the OH with the X.

(the O attacked the H to make water, good leaving group)

33
New cards

alcohol + H3PO4

will make alkene adjacent to where OH was

major product will be more subbed alkene

34
New cards

alcohol + H2SO4

will make alkene adjacent to where OH was

major product will be more subbed alkene

35
New cards

alcohol + tosylate + pyridine

replace the H of the alcohol with tosylate, also makes [pyridine]-H byproduct

retains stereochem

36
New cards

alcohol + mesylate + pyridine

replace the H of the alcohol with tosylate, also makes [pyridine]-H byproduct

retains stereochem

37
New cards

alcohol + SOCl2 + pyridine

replace the -OH with a Cl, also invert stereochem (swap the new Cl and H around)

38
New cards

alcohol + PPH3Br + more Br- + DMF or DMSO solvent

replace OH with Br, also invert stereochem (swap the new Br and H around)

39
New cards

2° alcohol + CrO3-H2O + acid

completely take off the -OH and an H from that same C. replace with double bond O.

also makes OH-Cr-OH with another =O out of the Cr as a byproduct too.

40
New cards

1° alcohol + CrO3-H2O + pyridine + HCl + PCC or DCM

this makes an aldehyde. completely take off -OH and an H from that same C. replace w/ double bond O

41
New cards

1° alcohol + CrO3 + H2O

this makes a carboxylic acid. take off both H’s on the C, replace with an =O. keep the -OH on.

42
New cards

1° alcohol + KMnO4 + H2O

this makes a carboxylic acid. take off both H’s on the C, replace with an =O. keep the -OH on.

43
New cards

thiol (R-SH) + HNO3 + H2O

replace the S’s H with an OH. stick two =O on the S too.

44
New cards

thiol (2 equivs) + Br2 (1 equiv)

this makes a disulfide. take off the H, replace it with a second thiol: R-S-S-R

45
New cards

alcohol + NaH → + H2 + RCH2X

take off H of alcohol. replace with CH2R (its X is gone)

ROH + NaH → RO → RO + H2 + RCH3X = RO-CH2-R

i guess the CH3X’s R is optional. this makes an ether!

46
New cards

thiol + NaH + H2 + RCH2X

take H off thiol, replace with CH2R (its X is gone)

47
New cards

alkene + CH3OH (need an alkyl group on the alcohol) + Hg(OAc)2 + NaBH4 + -OH

CH3OH on more sub C, H on less sub C (replace the HgOAc that went on it)

anti-markovnikov

48
New cards

ether (R-O-R) + HI (acidic conditions)

Give the R from ether to I, the other R still has its O but add an H to make an OH on that R

O attacked the H of HI. this makes two of R-I and an H2O

49
New cards

alkene + Br2 + H2O + NaH or NaOH

makes epoxide

50
New cards

epoxide + grignard reagent (like R-MgBr) + any acid

attack epoxide at the hip to where MgBr was on its R, ring opens to have an OH on the opening hinge. also makes H2O

51
New cards

epoxide + H3O + H2O

an OH on each C of the triangle base.

this makes a trans diol! one OH goes forward, other goes back

52
New cards

alkene + OsO4 + MnO

an OH on each of the C’s, now an alkane.

this makes a cis diol! racemic! both OH’s are either forward or back

53
New cards

H5IO6 or HIO4 + a glycol (has two OH’s)

break the bond between the C’s that have OH’s. on each wound, put a =O facing each other.

54
New cards

cis alkene + X2 + MeOH

OMe on one C, X on other

if starting material is cis, final will be trans. vice versa
