Formation of Diels-Alder Reactions The Diels-Alder reactions consist of a reversible dienophile and diene all in a one-step reaction initiated by head. These reactions form a six membered ring with at least one pi bond and two sigma bonds‚ making the reaction exothermic. The goal of the first part of these experiments is to make products that have a greater aromatic stabilization. In 1928‚ Otto Paul Hermann Diels and Kurt Alder first documented this type of reaction‚ hence the name Diels-Alder reactions

A Diels-Alder Reaction History and Application: The 1950 Nobel prize in chemistry was awarded to Otto Paul Hermann Diels and Kurt Alder for their breakthrough work on the discovery and development of [4 + 2] cycloaddition reactions i. This set of reactions are enormously useful in the synthesis of six membered rings in a single stepii. These are used in many pharmaceutical applications. Tamiflu® is a drug which

cycloaddition reaction‚ also known as Diels-Alder. According to the lab manual‚ this reaction consists of the addition of a diene and a dienophile and that the Diels-Alder reaction builds stereospecific ring compounds with ease (Weldegirma 80). The reaction takes place between the two pi electrons from the dienophile and the 4 pi electrons from the diene; what happens is the bonds react together in order to form new single bonds because they are more stable‚ in terms of energetics (Diels-Alder Reaction).

Diels-Alder Reaction: Synthesis of cis-Norbornene-5‚ 6-endo-dicarboxylic anhydride Introduction: The Diels-Alder reaction is a [4+2] cycloaddition of a conjugated diene and a dienophile. This type of reaction was named for Otto Diels and Kurt Alder who were the first to investigate this reaction (Weldegirma‚ 2012). The Diels- Alder reaction is one of the most important reactions in all of organic chemistry because of the applicability of it. This reaction can form

Chemical Reactions Lab Report Introduction: Chemical reactions is a process that involves rearrangement of the molecular or ionic structure of a substance. There are different types of reaction such synthesis‚ decomposition‚ single replacement‚ double replacement‚ and combustion. Synthesis is where two or more reactants combine to create a product. For Decomposition‚ it is the opposite where a product breaks down into reactants. In Single Replacement‚ reactants switches an element with another element

Introduction In a Grignard reaction‚ a Grignard reagent (R–MgX) adds to the carbonyl group in an aldehyde or ketone to form an alcohol (Figure 1). The reaction of a Grignard reagent with formaldehyde can be to synthesize a primary alcohol‚ with any other aldehyde can be used to synthesize a secondary alcohol‚ while the reaction with ketone is useful in the synthesis of a tertiary alcohol. Figure 1. General reaction mechanism of a Grignard Reaction The preparation of the Grignard reagent involves
