  2. Hydrazone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrazone

    R 2 C=N−NR' 2 + H 2 O → R 2 C=O + H 2 N−NR' 2. Alkyl hydrazones are 10 2 - to 10 3-fold more sensitive to hydrolysis than analogous oximes. [10] When derived from hydrazine itself, hydrazones condense with a second equivalent of a carbonyl to give azines: [11] R 2 C=N−NH 2 + R 2 C=O → R 2 C=N−N=CR 2 + H 2 O. Hydrazones are ...

  3. Fischer indole synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fischer_indole_synthesis

    The Fischer indole synthesis is a chemical reaction that produces the aromatic heterocycle indole from a (substituted) phenylhydrazine and an aldehyde or ketone under acidic conditions. [1] [2] The reaction was discovered in 1883 by Emil Fischer. Today antimigraine drugs of the triptan class are often synthesized by this method. The Fischer ...

  4. Alcohol oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_oxidation

    Alcohol oxidation is a collection of oxidation reactions in organic chemistry that convert alcohols to aldehydes, ketones, carboxylic acids, and esters. The reaction mainly applies to primary and secondary alcohols. Secondary alcohols form ketones, while primary alcohols form aldehydes or carboxylic acids. [1] A variety of oxidants can be used.

  5. Acetaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetaldehyde

    Acetaldehyde is a common electrophile in organic synthesis. [31] In addition reactions acetaldehyde is prochiral. It is used primarily as a source of the "CH 3 C + H(OH)" synthon in aldol reactions and related condensation reactions. [32] Grignard reagents and organolithium compounds react with MeCHO to give hydroxyethyl derivatives. [33]

  6. 2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine

    2,4-Dinitrophenylhydrazine (2,4-DNPH or DNPH) is the organic compound C 6 H 3 (NO 2) 2 NHNH 2. DNPH is a red to orange solid. It is a substituted hydrazine. The solid is relatively sensitive to shock and friction. For this reason DNPH is usually handled as a wet powder. DNPH is a precursor to the drug Sivifene.

  7. Phenylacetaldehyde - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenylacetaldehyde

    Phenylacetaldehyde is an aldehyde that consists of acetaldehyde bearing a phenyl substituent; the parent member of the phenylacetaldehyde class of compounds. It has a role as a human metabolite, a Saccharomyces cerevisiae metabolite, an Escherichia coli metabolite and a mouse metabolite. It is an alpha-CH2-containing aldehyde and a member of ...

  8. Cannizzaro reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannizzaro_reaction

    Under ideal conditions the reaction produces 50% of both the alcohol and the carboxylic acid (it takes two aldehydes to produce one acid and one alcohol). [5] This can be economically viable if the products can be separated and both have a value; the commercial conversion of furfural into furfuryl alcohol and 2-furoic acid is an example of this ...

  9. Wacker process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wacker_process

    This net reaction can also be described as follows: [PdCl 4] 2 − + C 2 H 4 + H 2 O → CH 3 CHO + Pd + 2 HCl + 2 Cl −. This conversion is followed by reactions that regenerate the Pd(II) catalyst: Pd + 2 CuCl 2 + 2 Cl − → [PdCl 4] 2− + 2 CuCl 2 CuCl + ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ O 2 + 2 HCl → 2 CuCl 2 + H 2 O. Only the alkene and oxygen are consumed.
