Synthetic routes involving ALKENES
FORMATION of Alkenes
1. Halogenoalkanes > Alkene
2. Alcohol > Alkene
PRODUCTS formed from alkene:
1. Alkene > halogenoalkane
2. Alkene > (alkane with Br & OH)
3. Alkene > alcohol
4. Alkene > Alkane
5. Alkene > di-ol
Oxidation of Alkene
Synthetic route involving BENZENE and METHYLBENZENE
PRODUCTS formed from benzene:
1. Benzene > BromoBenzene
2. Benzene > Amine
* 2-step process
3. Benzene > MethylBenzene
PRODUCTS formed from methylbenzene:
