Step 2. Loss of a proton to give an alkene Sign in to download full-size imageElimination reactions of primary alcohols occurs by an E2 mechanism in an acid-catalyzed reaction. First, the acid protonates the oxygen of a primary alcohol to give a primary alkyl oxonium ion. Then, water is...
Upon activation, protonated alkyl dihydrocinnamate esters fragment primari ly by two pathways: (1) a loss of alcohol, carbon monoxide or ketene, (2) a loss of acid or alkene. The proton that is transferred for the alkene el imination resembled the wel l -known McLaf fer ty rear ...
What alkene can be used to prepare the given alcohol as the exclusive product of a two-step hydroboration-oxidation sequence? Determine the alkyl halide used to prepare the given alkene. What mechanism, or series of mechanisms, would turn an alkene into an alcohol? What alkene can be used to...
Click the structures and reaction arrows in sequence to view the 3D models and animations respectively The Cr2O72-ion (Cr VI) forms HCrO4–in acidic aqueous solution, which can eliminate a molecule of water to give the reagent CrO3. This then oxidises alcohols to a aldehydes and ketones...
especially by elimination of the narrowed parts of the entrance tunnel, would enhance transport pathways for bulky–bulky substrates into binding site, usually not acceptable by wild-type Lk-ADH. Reaction optimizations The first hints at the applicability of freeze-dried wholeE. colicells containing ...
A secondary alcohol such as cyclohexanol undergoes dehydration through an E1 mechanism, where the key intermediate is the cyclohexyl cation, which can react either by an elimination or a substitution reaction. For good yield of the alkene, it is necessary to suppress the competitive substitution side...

The invention relates generally to liquids such as mouth rinses for the prevention and elimination of bad breath as well as for the reduction of oral microorganisms responsible for
The optical purity of the azide was 97% ee (enantiomeric excess of the desired isomer) and there was less than 1% of the elimination product 5. By this invention there is provided a process for converting an alcohol moiety to the corresponding azide with SN2 inversion comprising the step ...
The recently reported Ni-catalyzed methylation–allylation of alkynes with allylic alcohols and AlMe3 reagents delivers valuable tetrasubstituted alkene units in a highly regioselective fashion. Motivated by the experimental significance and the mechanistic ambiguity (e.g. the details of C–O bond ...
