regiochem: none, flat carbocation (rearrangement possible)


stereochem:trans / Markovnikov


what it does: replaces double bond with one H on less subs C and X on more subs C


pdts: One X and one H, trans


mec: 1-make DB attack H, give X its e-


- add H to C with more H's,creates carbocation (could rearrange)


2- make X attack carbocat,


3-add X to more subs C


4-check pdts for enantiomer or not

Halogenation: Alkene + X2 (ex: Br2):


regiochem


stereochem


what it does / pdts


mec:

regiochem:none, but nuc attacks more substituted carbon


stereochem: Markov Anti-addtn, trans products


pdts: 2 trans Xs


what it does: replaces double bond with anti (trans) halides on both sides of the bond


mec:


1-make double bond attack one halide (remember to return e- to other halide), make halide ‘bite back’


2-create a 3-side ring with two sides of what was the double bond and one halide


3-the other halide, now negative, backside attacks and opens rings


reagents: X2 (Br2, Cl2)

regiochem: ***remember to attack the more substituted carbon


stereochem: Markonikov (trans)


pdts: trans X / OH


what it does: A halohydrin is an alcohol with a halogen on the adjacent carbon atom. In the presence of water, halogens add to alkenes to form halohydrins.


mec:-The electrophilic halogen adds to the alkene to give a halonium ion, which is also electrophilic.


-Water acts as a nucleophile to open the halonium ion and form the halohydrin.

Free-Radical Addition of HBr: with ROOR (peroxide)


Anti-Markovnikov Addition


regiochem: none
stereochem: 
Peroxide (ROOR) = anti-Markovnikov 
pdts : generate Halogen with an H and X inverted
what it does-.Generates free radicals, can react with Br. or R-O. radicals
mec:   -Intermediate reacts with HBr to give the anti-M...



regiochem: none


stereochem:


Peroxide (ROOR) = anti-Markovnikov


pdts : generate Halogen with an H and X inverted


what it does-.Generates free radicals, can react with Br. or R-O. radicals


mec: -Intermediate reacts with HBr to give the anti-Markovnikov product, in which H has added to the more substituted end of the double bond: the end that started with fewer hydrogens.





Acid-Catalyzed Hydration of an Alkene:


H2O / H2SO4 (cat)

stereochem: none , carbocation (rearrangement possible) 
regiochem: Markov/ trans
pdts: OH and H 
what it does: -Hydration of an alkene is the reverse of the dehydration of alcohols
reagents: Alkene + acid H2O / (H2SO4, or H3O+, or H+)

stereochem: none , carbocation (rearrangement possible)


regiochem: Markov/ trans


pdts: OH and H


what it does: -Hydration of an alkene is the reverse of the dehydration of alcohols


reagents: Alkene + acid H2O / (H2SO4, or H3O+, or H+)

Oxymercuration–Demercuration:


1.Hg(OAc)2, H2O / 2. NaBH4

stereochem: anti add (trans) 
regiochem: 

Markovnikov/ trans
pdts: 1. ring to Hg ,  2.OH, H trans

-The product is a mercurin...

stereochem: anti add (trans)


regiochem: Markovnikov/ trans


pdts: 1. ring to Hg , 2.OH, H trans


what it does:


-Involves an electrophilic attack on the double bond by the positively charged mercury species.


-The product is a mercurinium ion, an organometallic cation containing a three-membered ring


.-In the second step, water from the solvent attacks the mercurinium ion to give (after deprotonation) an organomercurial alcohol.


-A subsequent reaction is demercuration, to remove the mercury. Sodium borohydride( NaBH4, a reducing agent) replaces the mercuric acetate fragment with a hydrogenatom.



Alkoxymercuration–Demercuration:


1.Hg(OAc)2, ROH / 2. NaBH4

stereochem: anti add (trans) 
regiochem:  Markovnikov/ trans

stereochem: anti add (trans)


regiochem: Markovnikov/ trans


pdts: 1. ring to Hg , 2.OR, H trans


what it does: an alkene reacts to form a mercurinium ion that is attacked by thenucleophilic solvent. Attack by an alcohol solvent gives an organomercurial ether thatcan be reduced to the ether.

Hydroboration of Alkenes:
