Reaction conditions: a mixture of the alkene (0.2 mmol), C–H partner (1 mmol), and Acr-Mes+ClO4− (0.004 mmol) in 1 mL of CH2Br2 (0.2 M) was injected into the SFMT reactors (volume = 0.75 mL). The reaction was performed at 50°C under 18 W blue LED irradiation for 24 h...
they are known as unsaturated compounds. Because alkenes contain reactive double bonds, common alkene reactions include addition reactions where molecules are added to each
Addition reactions are a type of chemical reaction in which a molecule is added to one or more of the carbons involved in a carbon-carbon double or triple bond. During addition reactions, an electrophile, an atom that attracts electrons, typically attacks the bond, which is electron-ric...
HBr can be added to an alkene in the presence of peroxides (ROOR). What function does the peroxide serve in this reaction? (a) Nucleophile (b) Electrophile (c) Radical chain initiator (d) Acid catalyst Locate and identify the functional group in the shown m...
Explain how a reaction with bromine can be used to test for an alkene. Include the mechanism for the reaction between hex-1-ene and bromine in your answer. What is the chemical equation of the reaction between hexane and bromine wate...
