Tenninal oxidant

Modification making H2O2 fte tenninal oxidant, general scheme example substrates below. 

The molecules for SA monolayers are chosen or syntliesized according to tire substrate tliat should be coated. Thiol-tenninated entities have been mostly used in connection witli metal surfaces, but also on GaAs [126]. Chloro- and acid-tenninated molecules are most often employed on oxide surfaces of metals or semiconductors. However, tliey have also occasionally been used witli metal surfaces [127]. 

All the individual steps are catalyzed by enzymes. NAD (Section 15.11) is required as an oxidizing agent, and coenzyme A (Figure 26.1b) is the acetyl group acceptor. Coenzyme A is a thiol its chain tenninates in a sulfhydryl (—SH) group. Acetylation of the sulfhydryl group of coenzyme A gives acetyl coenzyme A. 

Since the rate of oxidation of terminal alkenes is much higher than that of internal alkenes, selective oxidation of tenninal alkenic bonds is possible without attacking the internal alkenic bonds in various dienes (equation 7) 6.77.81-93... 

Reactions via Pd(II) catalysis involve a nucleophilic addition to the tenninal position of the 1,3-diene to give a 7r-allylpalladium intennediate (Scheme 6). Subsequent nucleophihc attack on the TT-allyl complex gives a 1,4-addition product The reaction is carried out in the presence of an oxidant and in this way Pd(ll) is regenerated in the second reaction step.

Tenninal alkynes undergo regiospedfic hydroboration in which boron is bonded to the less hindered carbon atom. Subsequent oxidation and isomerization therefore yield an aldehyde.
