Corey-Winter Olefin Synthesis Mechanism | Organic Chemistry @OrganicMechanismsChannel

Uploaded November 2022 | Updated September 2026, 1 week ago

The mechanism for a Corey-Winter Olefin synthesis which involves the transformation of diols to the corresponding olefins by sequential treatment with 1,1’-thiocarbonyldiimidazole (TCDI) and trimethylphosphite. Also known as the Corey–Winter reductive elimination, or Corey–Winter reductive olefination.

$MEM Protecting Group Addition | Organic Chemistry The mechanism for the addition of a 2-Methoxyethoxymethyl ether (MEM) protecting group which is used in organic synthesis as a protecting group for alcohols. In addition to other deprotection methods, a highly selective cleavage method has been developed using cerium(III) chloride. Music: Alone – Infraction$
