  2. Allyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allyl_alcohol

    Allyl alcohol is converted mainly to glycidol, which is a chemical intermediate in the synthesis of glycerol, glycidyl ethers, esters, and amines. Also, a variety of polymerizable esters are prepared from allyl alcohol, e.g. diallyl phthalate. [5] Allyl alcohol has herbicidal activity and can be used as a weed eradicant [9]) and fungicide. [8]

  3. Acrolein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acrolein

    Acrolein (systematic name: propenal) is the simplest unsaturated aldehyde. It is a colorless liquid with a foul and acrid aroma. It is a colorless liquid with a foul and acrid aroma. The smell of burnt fat (as when cooking oil is heated to its smoke point ) is caused by glycerol in the burning fat breaking down into acrolein.

  4. Propenyl - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Propenyl

    These groups are found in many compounds. Propenyl compounds are isomeric with allyl compounds, which have the formula CH 2-CH=CH 2. The three common precursors to lignin are derivatives of propenylbenzene: paracoumaryl alcohol (1), coniferyl alcohol (2) and sinapyl alcohol (3).

  5. Krische allylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Krische_allylation

    The Krische allylation involves the enantioselective iridium-catalyzed addition of an allyl group to an aldehyde or an alcohol, resulting in the formation of a secondary homoallylic alcohol. [1] [2] The mechanism of the Krische allylation involves primary alcohol dehydrogenation or, when using aldehyde reactants, hydrogen transfer from 2 ...

  6. Carbonyl allylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonyl_allylation

    Carbonyl allylation has been employed in the synthesis of polyketide natural products and other oxygenated molecules with a contiguous array of stereocenters. For example, allylstannanation of a threose-derived aldehyde affords the macrolide antascomicin B, which structurally resembles FK506 and rapamycin, and is a potent binder of FKBP12. [12]

  7. 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.

  9. Allyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allyl_group

    In organic chemistry, an allyl group is a substituent with the structural formula −CH 2 −HC=CH 2. It consists of a methylene bridge ( −CH 2 − ) attached to a vinyl group ( −CH=CH 2 ). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] The name is derived from the scientific name for garlic , Allium sativum .
