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