What is Favorskii Rearrangement explain? Favorskii Rearrangement is organic reaction of α-halo ketones (chlorine, bromine, or iodine) having at least one α-hydrogen, with a nucleophile (alcohol, amine, or H2O) in the presence base (usually an alkoxide or hydroxide) give carboxylic acids or carboxylic acid derivatives via a cyclopropanone intermediate. It is widely used organic reaction … Read more
The conversion of ketone (cyclic ketone, aromatic ketone, aliphatic ketone) into corresponding esters (lactones) by using MCBPA, or hydrogen peroxide as oxidant and a Lewis acid is known as Baeyer-Villiger oxidation (Baeyer-Villeger Reaction).
The willgerodt kindler reaction is the modification of the Willgerodt Reaction. It comes under a Rearrangement reaction. The name has been given after Karl Kindler.
The Appel reaction is a common organic nucleophilic substitution reaction (SN2) employed to transform alcohol to a corresponding alkyl halide using the reagents tetrahalomethane (CX4) and triphenylphosphine (PPh4) with inversion of stereochemistry and high yield.
The Pauson-Khand reaction is an organic transformation used to convert an alkyne and alkene to a substituted cyclopentenone by using CO2(CO)8 complex catalyst and an of carbon monoxide. Also known as Pauson-Khand cycloaddition.
Takai reaction is a general carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction in organic chemistry. Takai reaction is also known as takai -Utimoto olefination, This transformation is referred to as the name of Kazuhiko Takai. This olefination is a simple alternative for the Wittig reaction and other complex methods like preparing an E alkene stereoselective (major) isomer. In this method, chromium(II) catalyst was used to prepare (E) configuration of alkenyl halides from corresponding carbonyl compounds like aldehyde and ketones.
