Alkene Chemistry
Across
- 4. Initials of the reagent used to convert alkenes into epoxides... no base needed... Dr Carr's rapper name
- 6. This type of spectrum is used to measure the stretching frequency of an alkene
- 7. What type of "shift" occurs when a secondary carbocation rearranges to a tertiary carbocation... without migrating methyls
- 8. New functional group formed when alkene halogenation occurs in the presence of water
- 11. Functional group formed when 2-methylpropene undergoes acid-catalyzed hydration
- 13. In German, this word means "opposite", and is used to describe trans-substituted alkenes
- 14. General name of the chemical used to convert an alkene into the anti-Markovnikov alcohol
- 15. Toxic metal used to ensure hydration proceeds without carbocation rearrangement
- 16. During a halogenation reaction, the halogens add across the pi bond this way... not syn
- 17. Functional group formed when 2-methylpropene reacts with acid and methanol
- 19. Generic name for adding H-atoms across a pi-bond
- 20. Intermediate formed when a disubstituted alkene reacts with H+
Down
- 1. Metal used to perform syn-dihydroxylation to an alkene; can irreversibly stain the cornea
- 2. Rule stating that in an electrophilic addition reaction to an alkene, H-atom adds to the least substituted carbon
- 3. Adsorbed to carbon, this metal is critical for performing catalytic hydrogenation reactions on alkenes
- 5. If an alkene's stretching frequency is 1620-1680 cm^-1, what functional group stretches at ~1700 cm^-1?
- 8. Name of the reaction when HX reacts with an alkene
- 9. An allotrope of oxygen used to "cut" alkenes (oxidatively) into carbonyls
- 10. Intermediate formed with dibromine reacts with an alkene... before product formation
- 12. Halogen substitution when a trisubstituted alkene reacts with HCl
- 13. Number of H-atoms in the molecule 1-ethyl-2,4-dimethylcyclohexene (SPELL IT!)
- 18. This type of effect explains why (Z)-but-2-ene is less stable than (E)-but-2-ene
