Electrophilic hydration is the act of adding electrophilic hydrogen from a non-nucleophilic strong acid (a reusable catalyst, examples of which include sulfuric and phosphoric acid) and …

Sep 15, 2023 · When alkenes (olefins) are treated with strong aqueous acid (H 3 O +) they undergo net addition of water across the double bond (“hydration”). A new C-H bond and and …

Feb 13, 2019 · Electrophilic hydration is the reverse of dehydration of alcohols and so begins the circular nature of organic chemistry. Alcohols can be dehydrated to form alkenes and alkenes …

Dec 16, 2021 · This is the acid-catalyzed addition reaction of water to alkene (also called hydration), and this reaction has great utility in large-scale industrial production of certain low …

In chemistry, a hydration reaction is a chemical reaction in which a substance combines with water. In organic chemistry, water is added to an unsaturated substrate, which is usually an …

This free textbook is an OpenStax resource written to increase student access to high-quality, peer-reviewed learning materials.

Describe different reaction types in organic chemistry. Predict the products obtained upon reactions carried out by hydrocarbons, alkyl halides and alcohols. The practice of organic …

General Scheme of the Alkene Hydration. In a typical hydration reaction, water is added across the double bond between carbon atoms. Importantly, this reaction requires a catalyst, usually …

Aug 21, 2018 · Tutorial covering the acid-catalysed hydration of alkenes, an electrophilic addition reaction forming alcohols. The mechanism is also covered, discussing the Markovnikov rule …

Here, we will investigate two other methods for the hydration of alkene via different reaction conditions and mechanisms and produce either Markovnikov or anti-Markovnikov alcohol …
