Alkenes
Addition Reactions of Alkenes The Diels-Alder reaction, addition of oxygen to tetrakis(N, N-dimethylamino) ethylene, polymerization of ethylene, and addition of iodine to a-pinene are demonstrated. Molecular models of ethene are shown.
Borohydride Reduction of EstroneAnimesh Aditya, David E. Nichols, and G. Marc Loudon This experiment presents a guided-inquiry approach to the demonstration of diastereoselectivity using chiral hindered ketones that undergo facile reduction with sodium borohydride. The resulting diastereomeric estradiols can be analyzed and differentiated by thin-layer chromatography and melting point. Aditya, Animesh; Nichols, David E.; Loudon, G. Marc. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 1535.

Evaluating Mechanisms of Dihydroxylation by Thin-Layer ChromatographyBenjamin T. Burlingham and Joseph C. Rettig Presents a microscale experiment in which cyclohexene is dihydroxylated under three sets of conditions and the products determined through thin-layer chromatography. Teams of students evaluate proposed mechanisms for each dihydroxylation in light of the data collected. Burlingham, Benjamin T.; Rettig, Joseph C. J. Chem. Educ.2008, 85, 959.
