  2. Enol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Enol

    A classic example for favoring the keto form can be seen in the equilibrium between vinyl alcohol and acetaldehyde (K = [enol]/[keto] ≈ 3 × 10 −7). In 1,3-diketones, such as acetylacetone (2,4-pentanedione), the enol form is favored. The acid-catalyzed conversion of an enol to the keto form proceeds by proton transfer from O to carbon.

    It forms the acetylacetonate anion C 5 H 7 O − 2 (commonly abbreviated acac −): C 5 H 8 O 2 ⇌ C 5 H 7 O − 2 + H + The structure of the acetylacetonate anion (acac −) In the acetylacetonate anion, both C-O bonds are equivalent. Both C-C central bonds are equivalent as well, with one hydrogen atom bonded to the central carbon atom (the ...

    Acetylpropionyl, also known as acetyl propionyl or 2,3-pentanedione, [1] is an organic compound, specifically a diketone. [2] Uses for acetylpropionyl include as a: Solvent for cellulose acetate, paints, inks, and lacquers; Starting material for dyes, pesticides, and drugs

  6. Alcohol (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(chemistry)

    In chemistry, an alcohol (from Arabic al-kuḥl 'the kohl'), [2] is a type of organic compound that carries at least one hydroxyl (−OH) functional group bound to a saturated carbon atom. [ 3 ] [ 4 ] Alcohols range from the simple, like methanol and ethanol , to complex, like sugars and cholesterol .

  7. Acid dissociation constant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acid_dissociation_constant

    A simple example is provided by the effect of replacing the hydrogen atoms in acetic acid by the more electronegative chlorine atom. The electron-withdrawing effect of the substituent makes ionisation easier, so successive pK a values decrease in the series 4.7, 2.8, 1.4, and 0.7 when 0, 1, 2, or 3 chlorine atoms are present. [49]

  9. Knorr pyrrole synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knorr_pyrrole_synthesis

    Levi and Zanetti extended the Knorr synthesis in 1894 to the use of acetylacetone (2,4-pentanedione) in reaction with ethyl 2-oximinoacetoacetate. The result was ethyl 4-acetyl-3,5-dimethylpyrrole-2-carboxylate, where "OEt" = R 1 = R 3 = Me, and R 2 = COOEt. [9] The 4-acetyl group could easily be converted to a 4-ethyl group by Wolff-Kishner ...
