101Cyanohydrin reaction — A Cyanohydrin reaction is an organic chemical reaction by an aldehyde or ketone with a cyanide anion or a nitrile to form a cyanohydrin. This nucleophilic addition is a reversible reaction but with aliphatic carbonyl compounds equilibrium is in… …
102Organonickel — chemistry is a branch of organometallic chemistry that deals with organic compounds feature nickel carbon bonds.[1][2] They are used as a catalyst, as a building block in organic chemistry and in chemical vapor deposition. Organonickel compounds… …
103Organochromium chemistry — is a branch of organometallic chemistry that deals with organic compounds containing a chromium to carbon bond and their reactions.[1][2] The field is of some relevance to organic synthesis. The relevant oxidation states for chromium range from 2 …
104Organocobalt chemistry — is the chemistry of organometallic compounds containing a carbon to cobalt chemical bond. Organocobalt compounds are involved in several organic reactions and the important biomolecule vitamin B12 has a cobalt carbon bond. Many organocobalt… …
105Cracking (chemistry) — In petroleum geology and chemistry, cracking is the process whereby complex organic molecules such as kerogens or heavy hydrocarbons are broken down into simpler molecules such as light hydrocarbons, by the breaking of carbon carbon bonds in the… …
106Heck reaction — The Heck reaction (also called the Mizoroki Heck reaction)[1] is the chemical reaction of an unsaturated halide (or triflate) with an alkene and a base and palladium catalyst to form a substituted alkene.[2][3] Together with the other palladium… …
107Alkyne metathesis — is an organic reaction involving the redistribution of alkyne chemical bonds. [ Alkyne metathesis Alois Fürstner and Paul W. Davies, Chemical Communications, 2005, (18), 2307 2320. doi|10.1039/b419143a] This reaction is closely related to olefin… …
108Transfer hydrogenation — is the addition of hydrogen (H2; dihydrogen in inorganic and organometallic chemistry) to a molecule from a source other than gaseous H2. It is applied in industry and in organic synthesis, in part because of the inconvenience and expense of… …
