21.8 Michael Reactions | Organic Chemistry

Chad provides a comprehensive lesson on Michael Reactions which involve conjugate or 1,4-addition to a conjugated ketone. A conjugated ketone is referred to as the Michael acceptor and typical Michael donors include the enolate of a beta-diketone and organocuprates (Gilmann reagents). A detailed mechanism with arrow-pushing is included and examples showing how the choice of nucleophile is the distinction of whether 1,2-addition or 1,4-addition occurs.

Sir What is reaction between strontium and triphenyl phosphate d15 material.what will becomes final product.pls send the balance equation

[@PunmasterSTP]

Did you ever find the answer?

[@varadnerkar9042]

Does the reaction still proceed if the alpha carbon is substituted with methyl or any alkyl group?

[@ChadsPrep]

which reaction is this? Let me know the time in the video
