Organic Chemistry
REACTIONS OVERVIEW
Note: These examples were adapted and revised from General, Organic, & Biological
Chemistry textbook (with author: Janice Gorzynski Smith)
Reactions of Alkenes
Addition
Hydrogenation ( addition of hydrogen)
Alkane
Formation
Halogenation (addition of halogens such as chlorine, bromine, etc.)
Hydrohalogenation (addition of a halogen such as HCl, HBr)
Markovnikov’s Rule
Hydration (addition of water in presence of a strong acid, H2SO4)
Alcohol
Formation
Markovnikov’s Rule
** catalyst  a reactant that speeds up the reaction but it is not used up
** Markovnikov’s Rule  states that if the alkene is unsymmetrical, the Hydrogen atoms will be
attached to the carbon atom with most hydrogen atoms.
Reactions of Aromatic compounds
Substitution Chlorination ( addition of Chlorine)
Sulfonation (addition of SO3H)
Nitration ( addition of NO2)
FriedelCrafts
Acylation
Ketone
Formation
Reactions of Alcohols
Elimination
Dehydration  loss of water
Alkene
Formation
Oxidation 
C—OH bond
becomes
C=O
Oxidation is notated by [O]. Commonly, KMnO 4 is used for oxidation.
Primary alcohols
Aldehyde
Formation
Secondary alcohols
Ketone
Formation
Tertiary alcohols
THIOLS AND
DISULFIDES
If an alcohol has its O—H bond converted to S—H, the alcohol is said to be a thiol.
Oxidation of Thiols makes a disulfide (S—S bond)
Reduction 
Reduction (notated by [H]) of sulfides to make thiols
the process
during which
C—O or C—S
bond break.
Also refers to
breakdown of
S—S bond.
Reactions of Aldehydes & Ketones
Oxidation
Carboxylic
Acid
Formation
Reduction
**note H of the aldehyde was converted into an OH, thus a ketone will not undergo oxidation
because has a C=O bonded to two alkyl groups.
Ketones
Aldehydes
Aldol
Condensation
Two ketones come together:
Two aldehydes come together:
