oxidation: PERMITS THE INTRODUCTION OF FUNCTIONALITY
to the organic chemist oxidation is the addition of
electronegative atoms
5
formally, oxidation
occurs when electrons
are removed from a
compound
Oxidation:
M2e-
M2+
but its formal definition is...

A more useful definition:
Oxygen is gained
Hydrogen is lost
orelectrons lost
electronegative element gained
7
reduction is the opposite...

...reaction is stepwise so...
...no control of stereochemistry
free rotation in this intermediate means there is no control of stereochemistry
(trans predominates)
23
chemoselectivity
hydrogen peroxide only reacts with activated (electron poor) alkenes
peracid reverses this selectivity (only reacts
with electron rich alkenes)

epoxides are useful intermediates
ring strain makes epoxides very reactive
normally get good stereo- & regio-control
on addition of a nucleophile
