  2. Cyanohydrin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyanohydrin

    In the laboratory, this liquid serves as a source of HCN, which is inconveniently volatile. [4] Thus, acetone cyanohydrin can be used for the preparation of other cyanohydrins, for the transformation of HCN to Michael acceptors, and for the formylation of arenes. Treatment of this cyanohydrin with lithium hydride affords anhydrous lithium cyanide:

  3. Glycolonitrile - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Glycolonitrile

    Glycolonitrile, also called hydroxyacetonitrile or formaldehyde cyanohydrin, is the organic compound with the formula HOCH 2 CN. It is the simplest cyanohydrin and it is derived from formaldehyde . [ 3 ]

  4. Dosage Index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dosage_Index

    The Dosage Index is a mathematical figure used by breeders of Thoroughbred race horses, and sometimes by bettors handicapping horse races, to quantify a horse's ability, or inability, to negotiate the various distances at which horse races are run. It is calculated based on an analysis of the horse's pedigree.

    In organic chemistry, a cyanohydrin reaction is an organic reaction in which an aldehyde (−CH=O) or ketone (>C=O) reacts with a cyanide anion ...

  6. Hydrocyanation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrocyanation

    The most important industrial application is the nickel-catalyzed synthesis of adiponitrile (NC−(CH 2) 4 −CN) synthesis from buta-1,3-diene (CH 2 =CH−CH=CH 2).Adiponitrile is a precursor to hexamethylenediamine (H 2 N−(CH 2) 6 −NH 2), which is used for the production of certain kinds of Nylon.

  7. Alpha hydroxycarboxylic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alpha_hydroxycarboxylic_acid

    This structural aspect distinguishes them from beta hydroxy acids, where the functional groups are separated by two carbon atoms. [1] Notable AHAs include glycolic acid, lactic acid, mandelic acid, and citric acid. α-Hydroxy acids are stronger acids compared to their non-alpha hydroxy counterparts, a property enhanced by internal hydrogen bonding.

    CH 2 =C(CH 3)CN + H 2 SO 4 + H 2 O → CH 2 =C(CH 3)−CONH 2 ·H 2 SO 4 CH 2 =C(CH 3)−CONH 2 ·H 2 SO 4 + CH 3 OH → CH 2 =C(CH 3)COOCH 3 + NH 4 HSO 4. Mitsubishi Gas Chemicals proposed that MAN can be hydrated to methacrylamide without using sulfuric acid and is then esterified to obtain MMA by methylformate. [10] CH 2 =C(CH 3)CN + H 2 O ...
