Question
A number of compounds used for this type of reaction are based on the compound IBX, which undergoes “hypervalent twisting” at a cyclic iodine atom. Wastewater is treated via this type of reaction in radical Fenton chemistry. DMP is a much stronger activator for this type of reaction compared to pyridinium chlorochromate or potassium permanganate. Chemicals that cause this type of reaction are represented by a hollowed-out circle below a flame in the international hazard pictograms. This type of reaction, which is represented by the first part of the mnemonic OILRIG, is the opposite of reactions like hydrogenation that form saturated compounds. For 10 points, name this type of reaction that removes electrons from molecules, in contrast to reduction. ■END■
