Practice examples of the ozonolysis of cyclic alkenes. Don’t forget to count your carbons. Practice working backwards from ozonolysis products to the starting alkenes. In synthesis problems, be alert to the possibility of using alkenes as precursors to carbonyl compounds. Notes Related Articles Note...
Alkene Reactions Practice Problems (MOC Membership) Note 1 : this assumes the use of “heterogeneous” catalysts, such as Pd/C, Pt/C, etc which, rather than dissolve in solution, are suspended in it. There are also “homogeneous” catalysts for hydrogenation, such as Wilkinson’s catalyst. ...
SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION To overcome at least some of the problems of the prior art, herein is provided a novel process for renewable alkene production from a glyceride containing feedstock, the process comprising: a) providing the glyceride containing feedstock comprising free fatty acids, fatty ac...
