These compounds can be synthesized from prochiral allylic alcohols in the Sharpless reaction.
These compounds can be synthesized from prochiral allylic alcohols in the Sharpless reaction. One reaction involving displacement of alkyl halides by alkoxide ions synthesizes the "crown" type of these compounds. They have 110 degree bond angles that result in a dipole, and oxidation of alkenes can produce ones with three-membered rings called epoxides. Glycosidic linkages are composed of these compounds. For 10 points, name these compounds characterized by two R groups bonded to an oxygen atom, whose diethyl type is used as an anaesthetic.
