Vinylaluminate 2026-10-20
An anionic organoaluminium compound with a carbon–aluminium bond at an alkene carbon.
Vinyl ether 2026-10-20
An ether with oxygen directly attached to a vinylic carbon, in the simplest terminal example. oxygen resonance donation strongly differentiates the two alkene carbon shifts.
Vinyl group 2026-10-20
The group , attached through an alkene carbon. It differs from an allyl group, whose attachment includes an intervening methylene.
Vinylmagnesium halide 2026-10-20
A grignard reagent in which magnesium is attached directly to an alkenyl carbon, . Addition to a carbonyl compound can form an allylic alcohol while retaining the geometry of the pre-existing alkene.
Vinylogous aldol reaction 2026-10-20
Aldol-type carbonyl addition at a more remote carbon of a conjugated enolate.
Vinylogous enolate 2026-10-20
An enolate whose nucleophilic carbon is conjugated to a carbonyl through an additional unsaturated unit.
Wittig reaction 2026-10-20
Reaction of a phosphorus ylide with a carbonyl compound to form an alkene. The carbonyl carbon and ylidic carbon become the two alkene atoms; the oxygen is transferred to phosphorus.
