5 Aspects of Catalysts and Catalytic Reactions

{getToc} $title={Table of Contents} Introduction For those who were expecting an article on molecular orbital theory (as I had promised in the previous article), I apologize, because I have to finish a piece of coursework this week. A more detailed ex…

Woodward-Hoffmann Rules: The Mobius-Huckel Method

{getToc} $title={Table of Contents} Introduction In the previous article, we took a look at the Woodward-Hoffmann rules by the frontier orbital method . In this article, we will be looking at these rules from another point of view, using a different …

Forming Circles: Cycloaddition Reactions

{getToc} $title={Table of Contents} Introduction In this article, we will be discussing a few things, namely cycloaddition reactions (such as the Huisgen 1,3-dipolar cycloaddition), particularly the Diels-Alder reaction, as well as the Woodward-Hoffma…

Bizarre Addition Reactions

{getToc} $title={Table of Contents} Introduction The previous post looked briefly at some interesting, albeit ordinary, addition reactions. It was kind of boring, so in this post we are looking at some addition reactions that simply do not make sense,…

Addition Reactions of Multiple Bonds

{getToc} $title={Table of Contents} Introduction When drafting this post, I honestly had no idea what to put as the title. In essence, what this article looks at are reactions which occur by mechanisms of addition, such as electrophilic addition, nucl…
