Organic reactions eliminations

Kinds of Catalyzed Organic Reactions A fundamental classification of organic reactions is possible on the basis of the lands of bonds that are formed or destroyed and the natures of eliminations, substitutions, and additions of groups. Here a more pragmatic hst of 20 commercially important lands or classes of reactions will be discussed. In all instances of sohd-catalyzed reactions, chemisorption is a primary step. Often molecules are dissociated on chemisorption into... 

Organic chemical reactions can be organized broadly in two ways—by what kinds of reactions occur and by how those reactions occur. Let s look first at the kinds of reactions that take place. There are four general types of organic reactions additions, eliminations, substitutions, and reammgements. 

Classify an organic reaction as addition, elimination, condensation, or substitution. 

The states of reactants and products are often not given for organic reactions, because the reaction may take place at the surface of a catalyst or it may take place in a nonaqueous solvent, as here. The reaction is another example of an elimination reaction and is carried out in hot ethanol, with sodium ethoxide, NaCH CH,0, as the reagent. Some Cl I3CH2CH=CH2 is also formed in this reaction. 

In Part 2 of this book, we shall be directly concerned with organic reactions and their mechanisms. The reactions have been classified into 10 chapters, based primarily on reaction type substitutions, additions to multiple bonds, eliminations, rearrangements, and oxidation-reduction reactions. Five chapters are devoted to substitutions these are classified on the basis of mechanism as well as substrate. Chapters 10 and 13 include nucleophilic substitutions at aliphatic and aromatic substrates, respectively, Chapters 12 and 11 deal with electrophilic substitutions at aliphatic and aromatic substrates, respectively. All free-radical substitutions are discussed in Chapter 14. Additions to multiple bonds are classified not according to mechanism, but according to the type of multiple bond. Additions to carbon-carbon multiple bonds are dealt with in Chapter 15 additions to other multiple bonds in Chapter 16. One chapter is devoted to each of the three remaining reaction types Chapter 17, eliminations Chapter 18, rearrangements Chapter 19, oxidation-reduction reactions. This last chapter covers only those oxidation-reduction reactions that could not be conveniently treated in any of the other categories (except for oxidative eliminations). 

Organic halides play a fundamental role in organic chemistry. These compounds are important precursors for carbocations, carbanions, radicals, and carbenes and thus serve as an important platform for organic functional group transformations. Many classical reactions involve the reactions of organic halides. Examples of these reactions include the nucleophilic substitution reactions, elimination reactions, Grignard-type reactions, various transition-metal catalyzed coupling reactions, carbene-related cyclopropanations reactions, and radical cyclization reactions. All these reactions can be carried out in aqueous media.

In this context, an avalanche of studies were devoted to acid-base reactions in their broadest sense (i.e., the Lewis picture), also involving complexation reactions, to the typical organic reactions of addition, substitution, and elimination types, involving nucleophilic and electrophilic reagents including the case of radicalar reactions and excited states (for a review see Ref. [11]) in which our group has... 

Abiotic organic reactions, such as hydrolysis, elimination, substitution, redox, and polymerization reactions, can be influenced by surfaces of clay and primary minerals, and of metal oxides. This influence is due to adsorption of the reactants to surface Lewis and Br nsted sites. Temperature and moisture content are the most important environmental variables. Under ambient environmental temperatures, some reactions are extremely slow. However, even extremely slow transformation reactions may be important from environmental and geochemical viewpoints. 

Abiotic organic reactions that may be influenced by mineral surfaces include hydrolysis, elimination, substitution, redox, and polymerization. The effect of the surface may be either to promote (increase the rate of) or to inhibit (decrease the rate of) reactions that may occur in homogeneous solution. In addition, mineral surfaces may promote reactions that do not occur in homogenous solution by selectively concentrating molecules at the mineral surface... 

Addition reactions, substitution reactions, and elimination reactions are the three main types of organic reactions. Most organic reactions can be classified as one of these three types. 

In this section, you were introduced to some of the main types of organic reactions addition, substitution, and elimination reactions oxidation and reduction and condensation and hydrolysis reactions. In the next section, you will take a close look at each type of reaction. You will find out how organic compounds, such as alcohols and carboxylic acids, can react in several different ways. 

With an eye toward increasing efficiency and eliminating the atom-uneconomical solvent waste stream involved in most organic reactions, a reusable, water-soluble catalyst, using bidentate phosphine 107 as a ligand, has been developed [36]. The catalyst is prepared by treatment of [RhCl(nbd)]2 (nbd=norbornadiene) with AgSbFs in acetone, followed by introduction of the phosphine ligand [37]. In the presence of 10 mol% catalyst in water/methanol (1 1) at a catalyst concentration of 2.0 mM, 108 reacted efficiently at 70°C to provide cycloadduct 109 after 12 h in 91% yield (GC analysis Tab. 13.8). Notably, the yield and rate compare favorably to results obtained with Wilkinson s catalyst...

Similar qualitative relationships between reaction mechanism and the stability of the putative reactive intermediates have been observed for a variety of organic reactions, including alkene-forming elimination reactions, and nucleophilic substitution at vinylic" and at carbonyl carbon. The nomenclature for reaction mechanisms has evolved through the years and we will adopt the International Union of Pure and Applied Chemistry (lUPAC) nomenclature and refer to stepwise substitution (SnI) as Dn + An (Scheme 2.1 A) and concerted bimolecular substitution (Sn2) as AnDn (Scheme 2.IB), except when we want to emphasize that the distinction in reaction mechanism is based solely upon the experimentally determined kinetic order of the reaction with respect to the nucleophile. 

Frjedel-Crafts Reaction. Any organic reaction brought about by the catalytic action of anhydrous aluminum chloride or related, so-called Lewis acid type catalysts. Discovered in 1877 by C. Friedel and J.M. Crafts, who later uncovered most of the types of reaction such as substitution, isomerization, elimination, cracking, olefin polymerization, addition, etc. Commonly used to displace an aromatic hydrogen atom with an alkyl, aryl or acyl chain...
