Michael Addition

CH₂(COOC₂H₅)₂ + CH₂=CHCOCH₃ → product

نظرة عامة

A Michael donor (stabilized carbanion) adds to the beta-carbon of a Michael acceptor (alpha,beta-unsaturated carbonyl). This 1,4-conjugate addition forms a new carbon-carbon bond and is complementary to 1,2-addition. The Michael reaction is one of the most versatile C-C bond forming reactions.

مثال من الحياة اليومية

The Robinson annulation, combining Michael addition with aldol condensation, is used to build steroid ring systems in drug synthesis.

الأهمية الصناعية

Michael additions are used extensively in pharmaceutical synthesis, polymer chemistry (acrylate polymerization), and in the synthesis of natural products.
