  2. Mercury(II) sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury(II)_sulfate

    Conversion of 2,5-dimethylhexyne-2,5-diol to 2,2,5,5-tetramethylte-trahydrofuran-3-one. Mercury sulfate, as well as other mercury(II) compounds, are commonly used as catalysts in oxymercuration-demercuration, a type of electrophilic addition reaction that results in hydration of an unsaturated compound. The hydration of an alkene gives an alcohol.

  3. Mitsunobu reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsunobu_reaction

    The reaction mechanism of the Mitsunobu reaction is fairly complex. The identity of intermediates and the roles they play has been the subject of debate. Initially, the triphenyl phosphine (2) makes a nucleophilic attack upon diethyl azodicarboxylate (1) producing a betaine intermediate 3, which deprotonates the carboxylic acid (4) to form the ion pair 5.

    The rate equation for S N 2 reactions are bimolecular being first order in Nucleophile and first order in Reagent. The determining factor when both S N 2 and S N 1 reaction mechanisms are viable is the strength of the Nucleophile. Nuclephilicity and basicity are linked and the more nucleophilic a molecule becomes the greater said nucleophile's ...

  5. Desulfonylation reactions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desulfonylation_reactions

    Desulfonylation reactions are chemical reactions leading to the removal of a sulfonyl group from organic compounds. As the sulfonyl functional group is electron -withdrawing, [ 1 ] methods for cleaving the sulfur –carbon bonds of sulfones are typically reductive in nature.

  6. Kiliani–Fischer synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kiliani–Fischer_synthesis

    The Kiliani–Fischer synthesis, named for German chemists Heinrich Kiliani and Emil Fischer, is a method for synthesizing monosaccharides.It proceeds via synthesis and hydrolysis of a cyanohydrin, followed by reduction of the intermediate acid to the aldehyde, thus elongating the carbon chain of an aldose by one carbon atom while preserving stereochemistry on all the previously present chiral ...

  7. Substitution reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Substitution_reaction

    The two reactions are named according tho their rate law, with S N 1 having a first-order rate law, and S N 2 having a second-order. [2] S N 1 reaction mechanism occurring through two steps. The S N 1 mechanism has two steps. In the first step, the leaving group departs, forming a carbocation (C +). In the second step, the nucleophilic reagent ...

  8. Mercury (II) thiocyanate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mercury(II)_thiocyanate

    The decomposition of Hg(SCN) 2 is exothermic on its own, and the CS 2 produced ignites easily and burns off. The C 3 N 4 product is a simplification; the actual product contains 0.5% hydrogen and is likely to consist of sheets of triazine rings linked by −N= and −NH− groups similar to g−C 3 N 4 and was found to contain nano-particles of ...

  9. Albright–Goldman oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Albright–Goldman_oxidation

    The following figure shows the reaction mechanism: [2] Reaktionsmechanismus Albright-Goldman-Oxidation. First, dimethyl sulfoxide (1) reacts with acetic anhydride to form a sulfonium ion. It reacts with the primary alcohol in an addition reaction. Furthermore, acetic acid is cleaved, so that intermediate 2 is formed. The latter reacts upon ...
