Alkyne Acid Catalyzed Hydration Reaction and Mechanism

October 30, 2019 By Leah4sci Leave a Comment

Alkynes, like alkenes, can undergo acid-catalyzed hydration. However, since alkynes are slower to react under these conditions we prefer to use alternative reactions. This video walks you through the step by step reaction and mechanism including the final enol-keto tautomerization. (Watch on YouTube: Alkyne Hydration.

Alkyne Reduction Hydrogenation Reaction and Mechanism Video

January 20, 2019 By Leah4sci Leave a Comment

Alkynes possess 2 pi bonds allowing for a full or partial reduction. This video walks you through the conditions required for all 3 reduction products including complete hydrogenation as well as the partial reduction to a cis or trans alkene. You’ll also learn the step by step mechanism for (radical) dissolving metal reduction. (Watch on YouTube: […]
