Abstract:
In organic reactions, chemoselectivity refers to the selective reactivity of one functional group in the presence of another. This can be more successful if the reagent and reaction parameters are appropriately chosen. One-pot reactions have been shown to be an effective structural variety technique for the development of novel heterocyclic or carbocyclic compounds. This review article focuses on recent efforts by researchers from around the world to synthesise novel organic molecules utilising these methodologies (2013-2024), as well as their mechanism insights. The substrate, catalyst, solvent, and temperature conditions all have a significant impact on chemoselectivity in the organic reactions described here. The manipulation of chemoselectivity in organic processes creates new potential for the production of novel heterocycles and carbocycles.

02:36Regioselectivity and Stereochemistry of Hydroboration
Hydroboration proceeds in a concerted fashion with the attack of borane on the π bond, giving a cyclic four-centered transition state. The –BH2 group is bonded to the less substituted carbon and –H to the more substituted carbon. The concerted nature requires the simultaneous addition of –H and –BH2 across the same face of the alkene giving syn...

The hydrohalogenation of an unsymmetrical alkene can yield two haloalkane products, depending on which vinylic carbon takes up the halogen. However, one product usually predominates, where hydrogen adds to the vinylic carbon bearing the...

Selection Rules: Thermal Activation
Conjugated systems containing an even number of π-electron pairs undergo a conrotatory ring closure. For example, thermal electrocyclization of (2E,4E)-2,4-hexadiene, a conjugated diene containing two π-electron pairs, gives trans-3,4-dimethylcyclobutene.
02:17Reduction of Alkenes: Asymmetric Catalytic Hydrogenation
The metal catalyst used can be either heterogeneous or homogeneous. When hydrogenation of an alkene generates a chiral center, a pair of enantiomeric products is expected to form. However, an enantiomeric excess of one of the products can be facilitated using an enantioselective reaction or an...
