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.
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.

Ozonolysis Problems That Promote Student ReasoningRay A. Gross Jr. The structural features inherent in acyclic monoterpenes that follow the isoprene rule often lead to unique sets of ozonolysis products from which their structures, excluding stereochemistry, can be determined from molecular formulas only. This article shows how students may elucidate the structures of these compounds by analysis of the oxidative and reductive workup products. Gross, Ray A., Jr. J. Chem. Educ.2006, 83, 604.
