    Oxidation of Alkenes: Syn Dihydroxylation with Osmium Tetraoxide02:44

    Oxidation of Alkenes: Syn Dihydroxylation with Osmium Tetraoxide

    Alkenes are converted to 1,2-diols or glycols through a process called dihydroxylation. It involves the addition of two hydroxyl groups across the double bond with two different stereochemical approaches, namely anti and syn. Dihydroxylation using osmium tetroxide progresses with syn stereochemistry.

    Oxidation of Alkenes: Anti Dihydroxylation with Peroxy Acids02:04

    Oxidation of Alkenes: Anti Dihydroxylation with Peroxy Acids

    Diols are compounds with two hydroxyl groups. In addition to syn dihydroxylation, diols can also be synthesized through the process of anti dihydroxylation. The process involves treating an alkene with a peroxycarboxylic acid to form an epoxide. Epoxides are highly strained three-membered rings with oxygen and two carbons occupying the corners of an equilateral triangle. This step is followed by ring-opening of the epoxide in the presence of an aqueous acid to give a trans diol.

    Degree of Unsaturation02:05

    Degree of Unsaturation

    The degree of unsaturation (U), or index of hydrogen deficiency (IHD), is defined as the difference in the number of pairs of hydrogen atoms between the compound and the acyclic alkane with the same number of carbon atoms. Each double bond or ring costs two hydrogen atoms compared to a saturated analog and results in one degree of unsaturation.
    The degree of unsaturation for hydrocarbons is U = (2C + 2 − H) / 2, where C is the number of carbon atoms and H is the number of hydrogen atoms.

    Oxidation of Alkenes: Syn Dihydroxylation with Potassium Permanganate02:21

    Oxidation of Alkenes: Syn Dihydroxylation with Potassium Permanganate

    Alkenes can be dihydroxylated using potassium permanganate. The method encompasses the reaction of an alkene with a cold, dilute solution of potassium permanganate under basic conditions to form a cis-diol along with a brown precipitate of manganese dioxide.
