The Paternò–Büchi reaction, named after Emanuele Paternò and George Büchi, who established its basic utility and form, [1] [2] is a photochemical reaction, specifically a 2+2 photocycloaddition, which forms four-membered oxetane rings from an excited carbonyl and reacting with an alkene.
The Reformatsky reaction (sometimes transliterated as Reformatskii reaction) is an organic reaction which condenses aldehydes or ketones with α-halo esters using metallic zinc to form β-hydroxy-esters: [1] [2] The Reformatsky reaction. The organozinc reagent, also called a 'Reformatsky enolate', is prepared by treating an alpha-halo ester ...
An aldol condensation is a condensation reaction in organic chemistry in which two carbonyl moieties (of aldehydes or ketones) react to form a β-hydroxyaldehyde or β-hydroxyketone (an aldol reaction), and this is then followed by dehydration to give a conjugated enone.
Typically the more α substituted a ketone is, the more likely the reaction will yield products in this way. [5] [6] The abstraction of an α-proton from the carbonyl fragment may form a ketene and an alkane. The abstraction of a β-proton from the alkyl fragment may form an aldehyde and an alkene. Norrish type I reaction
Aldehyde structure. In organic chemistry, an aldehyde (/ ˈ æ l d ɪ h aɪ d /) is an organic compound containing a functional group with the structure R−CH=O. [1] The functional group itself (without the "R" side chain) can be referred to as an aldehyde but can also be classified as a formyl group. Aldehydes are a common motif in many ...
The Buchner–Curtius–Schlotterbeck reaction is the reaction of aldehydes or ketones with aliphatic diazoalkanes to form homologated ketones. [1] It was first described by Eduard Buchner and Theodor Curtius in 1885 [2] and later by Fritz Schlotterbeck in 1907. [3]
For example, in the three-component coupling of aldehydes, amines, and activated alkenes, the aldehyde reacts with the amine to produce an imine prior to forming the aza-MBH adduct, as in the reaction of aryl aldehydes, diphenylphosphinamide, and methyl vinyl ketone, in the presence of TiCl 4, triphenylphosphine, and triethylamine: [19]
The Seyferth–Gilbert homologation is a chemical reaction of an aryl ketone 1 (or aldehyde) with dimethyl (diazomethyl)phosphonate 2 and potassium tert-butoxide to give substituted alkynes 3. [1] [2] Dimethyl (diazomethyl)phosphonate 2 is often called the Seyferth–Gilbert reagent. [3] The Seyferth–Gilbert homologation
