Water as Solvent in Organic Synthesis

  • Chapter
  • First Online:
Modern Solvents in Organic Synthesis

Part of the book series: Topics in Current Chemistry ((TOPCURRCHEM,volume 206))

Abstract

Organic reactions using water as solvent are reviewed with a focus on pericyclic reactions, carbonyl additions, stoichiometric organometallic reactions, oxidations and reductions which show an unusual outcome in terms of reactivity and selectivity compared with those performed in organic solvent. The advantages of using water as a solvent are discussed and related to the hydrophobic effects and the hydrogen-bonding ability of water with a special emphasis on its very high cohesive energy density which strongly favors organic reactions having a negative activation volume.
