Glossary
B
Brønsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases- the formation of conjugate acids and bases is central to the Brønsted-Lowry definition of acids and bases.
D
Dithiane chemistry- is a classic example of polarity inversion
P
Peroxy acid- (often spelled as one word, peroxyacid, and sometimes called peracid) is an acid which contains an acidic –OOH group.

R
Retrosynthetic analysis- is a technique for solving problems in the planning of organic syntheses. This is achieved by transforming a target molecule into simpler precursor structures without assumptions regarding starting materials. Each precursor material is examined using the same method.
S
Synthons - a constituent part of a molecule to be synthesized which is regarded as the basis of a synthetic procedure.

History of umpolung
Description Umpolung or polarity inversion in organic chemistry is the chemical modification of a functional group with the aim of the reversal of polarity of that group. This modification allows secondary reactions of this functional group that would otherwise not be possible. The concept was introduced by D. Seebach (hence the German word umpolung for reversed polarity) and E.J. Corey. Polarity analysis during retrosynthetic analysis tells a chemist when umpolung tactics are required to synthesize a target molecule.
UMPOLUNG IN CARBONYL COMPOUNDS
Dithiane chemistry is a classic example of polarity inversion.
Ordinarily the oxygen atom in the carbonyl group is more electronegative than the carbon atom and therefore the carbonyl group reacts as an electrophile at carbon. This polarity can be reversed when the carbonyl group is converted into a dithiane or a thioacetal. In synthon terminology the ordinary carbonyl group is an acyl cation and the dithiane is a masked acyl anion.
When the dithiane is derived from an aldehyde such as acetaldehyde the acyl proton can be abstracted by n-butyllithium in THF at low temperatures. The thus generated 2-lithio-1,3- dithiane reacts as a nucleophile in nucleophilic displacement with alkyl halides such as benzyl bromide, with other carbonyl compounds such as cyclohexanone or oxiranes such as phenyl-epoxyethane, shown below. After hydrolysis of the dithiane group the final reaction products are α-alkyl-ketones or α-hydroxy-ketones. A common reagent for dithiane hydrolysis is (bis(trifluoroacetoxy)iodo)benzene.
