Benzilic Acid Rearrangement

Benzilic Acid Rearrangement converts 1,2- diketone into α hydroxycarboxylic acid in presence of NaOH. For this transformation, 1,2- diketone is first treated with alkali hydroxide to get salt of alpha hydroxy carboxylic acid, which, after an acidic workup, gives α-hydroxy carboxylic acid. The reaction takes place with both aliphatic and aromatic α-diketones and α-keto aldehydes. Usually diaryl … Read more
