This article discusses compounds with polar p bonds and their reactions with nucleophiles, including nucleophilic addition-elimination reactions. It also covers the hydration rate, equilibrium constants, structural comparison, inductive effects, and reduction using LiAlH4 and NaBH4. Additionally, it explores the Grignard reaction and mechanism, synthesis using organometallics and direct/conjugate addition, as well as the advantages of Wittig reactions in synthesizing alkenes.

Compounds with Polar p Bonds • In each of these species on the right, however, the C atom of the polar π bond possesses a leaving group. • The presence of a leaving group facilitates another type of reaction with nucleophiles, called nucleophilic addition–elimination reactions.
Reduction p. 617
Reduction • Green Principles Addresses • Less Hazardous Reagents • Safer Solvent • Use of Renewable Feedstocks • Catalysis
Reduction of Other Functional Groups LiAlH4 must be used for both reductions
Some Feasible Grignard Reagents • A Grignard reagent should not contain functional groups that react with strong bases or strong nucleophiles. • The Grignard reagents below are unfeasible.
Wittig • Green Principles Addresses • Less Hazardous Reagents • Safer Solvent • Energy Efficiency
