An Alkene Carboamination Organic Synthesis: Rhodium-catalyzed reaction stereospecifically forms a C–C bond and a C–N bond across a C=C bond by Bethany Halford October 26, 2015 1 min read ...

The ring is opened when Cl − attacks the other side. In the syn-reaction, the Se 4+ reagent forms a cyclic intermediate on one side of the alkene that is opened by Cl − on the opposite side.

Constraint of chains of atoms into certain sizes of ring produces strain. This is perceptible not only as excess enthalpy apparent in enhanced heats of combustion, but also in enhanced reactivity in ...
