    Benzyl group and derivatives: Benzyl group, benzyl radical, benzyl amine, benzyl bromide, benzyl chloroformate, and benzyl methyl ether. R = heteroatom, alkyl, aryl, allyl etc. or other substituents. In organic chemistry, benzyl is the substituent or molecular fragment possessing the structure R−CH 2 −C 6 H 5.

  3. Benzilic acid rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzilic_acid_rearrangement

    This reaction receives its name from the reaction of benzil with potassium hydroxide to form benzilic acid. First performed by Justus von Liebig in 1838, [1] it is the first reported example of a rearrangement reaction. [2] It has become a classic reaction in organic synthesis and has been reviewed many times before.

  4. Benzoyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoyl_group

    In organic chemistry, benzoyl (/ ˈ b ɛ n z oʊ ɪ l /, BENZ-oh-il) [1] is the functional group with the formula −COC 6 H 5 and structure −C(=O)−C 6 H 5. [2] [3] It can be viewed as benzaldehyde missing one hydrogen. The benzoyl group has a mass of 105 amu. The term "benzoyl" should not be confused with benzyl, which has the formula − ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzyl_chloride

    Benzyl chloride, or α-chlorotoluene, is an organic compound with the formula C 6 H 5 CH 2 Cl. This colorless liquid is a reactive organochlorine compound that is a widely used chemical building block .

  6. Functional group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Functional_group

    In organic chemistry, a functional group is a substituent or moiety in a molecule that causes the molecule's characteristic chemical reactions. The same functional group will undergo the same or similar chemical reactions regardless of the rest of the molecule's composition.

  7. Benzyl alcohol - Wikipedia

    Another preparation, performed by Liebig in 1838, is the dimerization of benzaldehyde, to benzil, which is transformed to the product by the benzilic acid rearrangement reaction. [ 2 ] Uses

  9. Blanc chloromethylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blanc_chloromethylation

    The benzyl alcohol thus formed is quickly converted to the chloride under the reaction conditions. Mechanism of Blanc chloromethylation Other possibilities for the electrophile include (chloromethyl)oxonium cation (ClH 2 C–OH 2 + ) or chlorocarbenium cation (ClCH 2 + ), which may be formed in the presence of zinc chloride.
