  2. Cumene process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cumene_process

    The concerted mechanism of this step is similar to the mechanisms of the Baeyer–Villiger oxidation [6] and Criegee rearrangement reactions, and also the oxidation step of the hydroboration–oxidation process. [7] In 2009, an acidified bentonite clay was proven to be a more economical catalyst than sulfuric acid as the acid medium.

  3. Acetoacetic ester synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetoacetic_Ester_Synthesis

    Acetoacetic ester synthesis is a chemical reaction where ethyl acetoacetate is alkylated at the α-carbon to both carbonyl groups and then converted into a ketone, or more specifically an α-substituted acetone. This is very similar to malonic ester synthesis. Acetoacetic ester synthesis equation

  4. Baeyer–Drewsen indigo synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baeyer–Drewsen_indigo...

    The Baeyer–Drewsen indigo synthesis (1882) is an organic reaction in which indigo is prepared from 2-nitrobenzaldehyde and acetone [1] [2] The reaction was developed by von Baeyer and Viggo Drewsen in 1880 to produce the first synthetic indigo at laboratory scale. This procedure is not used at industrial scale.

  5. Acetone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetone

    Acetone (2-propanone or dimethyl ketone) is an organic compound with the formula (CH 3) 2 CO. [22] It is the simplest and smallest ketone (>C=O).It is a colorless, highly volatile, and flammable liquid with a characteristic pungent odour, very reminiscent of the smell of pear drops.

  6. Bargellini reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bargellini_reaction

    Reaction mechanism for original Bargellini reaction (1906): Present-day Bargellini reaction used for synthesis of hindered morpholinones or piperazinones from ketones (primarily acetone) and 2-amino-2-methylpropan-1-ol (β-amino alcohols) OR 1,2-diaminopropanes (diamines).

  7. Oppenauer oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oppenauer_oxidation

    Oppenauer oxidation mechanism. In the first step of this mechanism, the alcohol (1) coordinates to the aluminium to form a complex (3), which then, in the second step, gets deprotonated by an alkoxide ion (4) to generate an alkoxide intermediate (5). In the third step, both the oxidant acetone (7) and the substrate alcohol are bound to the ...

  8. Pinacol coupling reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pinacol_coupling_reaction

    The reaction product is a vicinal diol. The reaction is named after pinacol (also known as 2,3-dimethyl-2,3-butanediol or tetramethylethylene glycol), which is the product of this reaction when done with acetone as reagent. The reaction is usually a homocoupling but intramolecular cross-coupling reactions are also possible.

  9. Bucherer–Bergs reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bucherer–Bergs_reaction

    Reactions similar to the Bucherer–Bergs reaction were first seen in 1905 and 1914 by Ciamician and Silber, who obtained 5,5-dimethylhydantoin from a mixture of acetone and hydrocyanic acid after it had been exposed to sunlight for five to seven months. In 1929, Bergs issued a patent that described his own synthesis of a number of 5 ...
