 | | Here are some common reactions that you may run into in a college organic chemistry course: addition of HX to an alkene, halogen addition reaction, halohydrin formation reaction, oxymercuration reaction, hydroboration-oxidation reaction, hydrooxylation reaction[?], ozonolysis reaction[?], nucleophilic substitution, halogenation of an alkyl[?], hydration and dehydration. |
 | | Here is a series of reactions that a chemist can perform to change molecules in a defined way: Beckmann rearrangement, Friedel-Craft-Alkylation, Diels-Alder reaction, Pinner reaction, Sharpless epoxidation, Sharpless bishydroxylation, Swern oxidation |
 | | As seen here, specific reactions are sometimes named after the chemist who developed them. |
