Heat evolved upon catalytic hydrogenation (△Ho) A MEASURE OF ALKENE STABILITY ALKENE C4H8 ALKANE C4H10 EXOTHERMIC H2/Pd-C ENERGY (-) 30.3 kcal/mol (-) 28.3 kcal/mol (-) 27.4 kcal/mol Best to compare compounds that react to form same alkane Trans > Cis > Geminal
SUMMARY OF ALKENE CHEMISTRY (illustrated with 1-methyl cyclopent-1-ene to emphasize transformation stereochemistry)
POLYOL NATURAL PRODUCTS CELLULOSE ERYTHRONOLIDE A (ERYTHROMYCIN A) Antibiotic AMPHOTERICIN B Antifungal
NATURAL PRODUCTS WITH ALKENE FUNCTIONALITY g-Bisabolene A sesquiterpene found in the essential oils of a number of plants Limonene A monoterpene common in citrus fruits Cembrene A diterpene from pine needles Caryophyllene A constituent of clove oil Carvone Spearmint oil b-Carotene (A vitamin) A tetraterpene bright orange in color and the precursor to the visual pigment retinal Vitamin A (vision)
MARKOVNIKOV and ANTI-MARKOVNIKOV ADDITION TO ALKENES Markovnikov Anti- Markovnikov In the dark, in the absence of peroxides polar solvents to promote formation of polar intermediate. Most substituted carbonium ion intermediate gives most substituted bromide product In the presence of peroxides and heat or light to promote homolytic cleavage of O-O bond. Most substituted radical intermediate gives least substituted bromide product
