  1. 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.

    Rearrangement reactions can accompany many of the reactions we’ve previously covered such as substitution, addition, and elimination reactions. 1. Substitution (SN1) (See post: Alkyl Halides From Alcohols) 2. Elimination (E1) (See post: Elimination (E1) With Rearrangement) 3. Alkene addition reactions (See post: Rearrangements in Alkene Addition Re...

    In fact, if you don’t look closely, sometimes you can miss the fact that a rearrangement reaction has occurred. Let’s look at a substitution reaction first. On the top is a “typical” substitution reaction: we’re taking an alkyl halide and adding water. The C-Br bond is broken and a C-OH bond is formed. If you look at the table on the right you’ll s...

    Let’s look at another example, but involving an addition reaction (the addition of HCl to alkenes). Here we have an addition reaction. On top, nothing special – as with all additions, we break a C-C double bond (π bond )and form two new single bonds to the adjoining carbons (H and Cl). But look at the bottom example. If we use that alkene instead, ...

    Finally, let’s look at an elimination reaction. If you take an alcohol like the one below and add an acid (like H2SO4, pictured) and help the reaction along with some heat, you break the C1-OH and C2-H bonds, and form a new double bond between C1-C2. This is, in other words, a typical elimination reaction. But if you take a slightly modified alcoho...

  2. A rearrangement is not well represented by simple and discrete electron transfers (represented by curved arrows in organic chemistry texts). The actual mechanism of alkyl groups moving, as in Wagner–Meerwein rearrangement , probably involves transfer of the moving alkyl group fluidly along a bond, not ionic bond -breaking and forming.

  3. Jan 23, 2023 · A rearrangement reaction is a broad class of organic reactions where the carbon skeleton of a molecule is rearranged to give a structural isomer of the original molecule. Often a substituent moves from one atom to another atom in the same molecule.

  4. Apr 22, 2024 · Rearrangement reactions are one of the important class of organic reactions, wherein a group or bond attached to a carbon atom moves to another carbon atom often in a single molecule. Example: A-B-X → B-A-X In rearrangement reactions, the reaction may involve more than one step.
