  2. Baeyer–Villiger oxidation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baeyer–Villiger_oxidation

    The Baeyer–Villiger oxidation is an organic reaction that forms an ester from a ketone or a lactone from a cyclic ketone, using peroxyacids or peroxides as the oxidant. [1] The reaction is named after Adolf von Baeyer and Victor Villiger who first reported the reaction in 1899.

  3. Peroxybenzoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxybenzoic_acid

    Peroxybenzoic acid is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 CO 3 H. It is the simplest aryl peroxy acid.It may be synthesized from benzoic acid and hydrogen peroxide, [3] or by the treatment of benzoyl peroxide with sodium methoxide, followed by acidification.

  4. Acetic anhydride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetic_anhydride

    Acetic anhydride, or ethanoic anhydride, is the chemical compound with the formula (CH 3 CO) 2 O.Commonly abbreviated Ac 2 O, it is the simplest isolable anhydride of a carboxylic acid and is widely used as a reagent in organic synthesis.

  5. Carbonyl oxidation with hypervalent iodine reagents - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonyl_oxidation_with...

    The mechanism of carbonyl oxidation by iodine(III) reagents varies as a function of substrate structure and reaction conditions, but some generalizations are possible. Under basic conditions, the active iodinating species are iodine(III) compounds in which any relatively acidic ligands on iodine (such as acetate) have been replaced by alkoxide. [1]

  6. Peroxy acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peroxy_acid

    General formulas of an organic peroxy acid (top) compared with a carboxylic acid (bottom).. A peroxy acid (often spelled as one word, peroxyacid, and sometimes called peracid) is an acid which contains an acidic −OOH group.

  7. Triphenylphosphine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Triphenylphosphine

    Triphenylphosphine (IUPAC name: triphenylphosphane) is a common organophosphorus compound with the formula P(C 6 H 5) 3 and often abbreviated to P Ph 3 or Ph 3 P. It is versatile compound that is widely used as a reagent in organic synthesis and as a ligand for transition metal complexes, including ones that serve as catalysts in organometallic chemistry.

  8. Mitsunobu reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mitsunobu_reaction

    The order of addition of the reagents of the Mitsunobu reaction can be important. Typically, one dissolves the alcohol, the carboxylic acid, and triphenylphosphine in tetrahydrofuran or other suitable solvent (e.g. diethyl ether), cool to 0 °C using an ice-bath, slowly add the DEAD dissolved in THF, then stir at room temperature for several hours.

  9. Phenyllithium - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phenyllithium

    Phenyllithium is an organometallic agent with the empirical formula C 6 H 5 Li.It is most commonly used as a metalating agent in organic syntheses and a substitute for Grignard reagents for introducing phenyl groups in organic syntheses. [3]
