On the other hand, a rearrangement may be a multi-step reaction that includes the migration of an H atom or of a larger molecular fragment as one of its steps. In many rearrangements, the migrating group connects to one of the direct neighbours of the atom to which it was originally attached. Rearrangements of this type are the so-called [1,2] – re...
Curtius’ reaction involves the heating of an acyl azide which loses nitrogen and then rearranges to an isocyanate. RCON3 → R-N=C=O + N2 If the reaction is performed in an alcoholic or aqueous medium, the isocyanate further reacts to form urethane, amine or substituted urea. The conversion of acyl azides to isocyanates involves Curtius rearrangement...
The classical Claisen rearrangement is the first and slow step of the isomerization of allyl aryl ethers to ortho allylated phenols. A cyclohexadienone is formed in the actual rearrangement step which is a [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement. Three valence electron pairs are shifted simultaneously. Cyclohexadienone, a non-aromatic compound, cannot be i...
In the Beckmann rearrangement , an oxime is converted to an amide . An oxime is easily obtained by treatment of aldehyde or ketone with hydroxylamine. The OH group of ketoximes can become a leaving group. The Beckmann rearrangement of cyclic oximes results in lactams. The comparison of the structure of the starting ketone with those of the products...
The Hofmann rearrangement results from the treatment of a primary amide with bromine and hydroxide ion in water, ultimately forming an amine in which the carbonyl group of the starting amide has been lost. Thus, the Hofmann rearrangement results in a shortening of the carbon chain by one atom and a change in functional group from an amide to an ami...
Pericyclic reactions are defined as the reactions that occur by a concerted cyclic shift of electrons. This definition states two key points that characterize a pericyclic reaction. 1. First point is that reaction is concerted. In concerted reaction, reactant bonds are broken and product bonds are formed at the same time without intermediates. 2. S...
Many photoreactions are known to interconvert isomeric compounds. The term “rearrangement” is more general than “isomerization” but for the reactions under photochemical rearrangement will not be concerned with a distinction between these terms. For convenience, we shall classify primary photochemical rearrangements as the following types. 1. Cis t...
Benzilic Acid Rearrangement. The benzilic acid rearrangement involves conversion of a 1,2-diketone into a carboxylic acid. The conditions are deceptively simple, hydroxide followed by an acid quench, and lead to the migration of a benzene ring. This mechanism is relatively straightforward.
Oct 17, 2011 · Introduction to Rearrangement Reactions. Introduction to Rearrangement Reactions. Reactions that involve a carbocation intermediate may be accompanied by rearrangements where a pair of electrons from a C-H or C-C bond migrates toward the carbocation, resulting in breakage and formation of a C-H or C-C bond, and formation of a new carbocation.
Rearrangement Reactions. A rearrangement reaction occurs when the carbon skeleton of a molecule is rearranged to provide a structural isomer of the original molecule. Frequently, a substituent moves from one atom to another atom in the same molecule. Alongside substitution and addition reactions, rearrangements are of fundamental importance in ...
A 1,2-rearrangement is an organic reaction where a substituent moves from one atom to another atom in a chemical compound. In a 1,2 shift the movement involves two adjacent atoms but moves over larger distances are possible. Skeletal isomerization is not normally encountered in the laboratory, but is the basis of large applications in oil ...

An atom or group of atoms migrate from one position to another; such reactions are rearrangement reactions.Post rearrangement, the molecule formed has the atoms arranged differently but has the same molecular formula as the parent. Therefore, such rearrangements create structural isomers, compounds that differ in structure but have the same molecular formula.Related Reading - Structural Isomerism
