  2. Norrish reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norrish_reaction

    The Norrish type I reaction is the photochemical cleavage or homolysis of aldehydes and ketones into two free radical intermediates (α-scission). The carbonyl group accepts a photon and is excited to a photochemical singlet state. Through intersystem crossing the triplet state can be obtained.

  3. Seyferth–Gilbert homologation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seyferth–Gilbert...

    The Seyferth–Gilbert homologation is a chemical reaction of an aryl ketone 1 (or aldehyde) with dimethyl (diazomethyl)phosphonate 2 and potassium tert-butoxide to give substituted alkynes 3. [1] [2] Dimethyl (diazomethyl)phosphonate 2 is often called the Seyferth–Gilbert reagent. [3] The Seyferth–Gilbert homologation

  4. Büchner–Curtius–Schlotterbeck reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Büchner–Curtius...

    The Buchner–Curtius–Schlotterbeck reaction is the reaction of aldehydes or ketones with aliphatic diazoalkanes to form homologated ketones. [1] It was first described by Eduard Buchner and Theodor Curtius in 1885 [2] and later by Fritz Schlotterbeck in 1907. [3]

  5. Tollens' reagent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tollens'_reagent

    Tollens' test for aldehyde: left side positive (silver mirror), right side negative Ball-and-stick model of the diamminesilver(I) complex. Tollens' reagent (chemical formula ()) is a chemical reagent used to distinguish between aldehydes and ketones along with some alpha-hydroxy ketones which can tautomerize into aldehydes.

  6. Carbonyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbonyl_group

    A ketone compound containing a carbonyl group (C=O) For organic chemistry, a carbonyl group is a functional group with the formula C=O, composed of a carbon atom double-bonded to an oxygen atom, and it is divalent at the C atom.

  7. 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]

  8. Semicarbazone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicarbazone

    In organic chemistry, a semicarbazone is a derivative of imines formed by a condensation reaction between a ketone or aldehyde and semicarbazide. They are classified as imine derivatives because they are formed from the reaction of an aldehyde or ketone with the terminal -NH 2 group of semicarbazide, which behaves very similarly to primary amines.

  9. Aldol reactions - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aldol_reactions

    Aldol reactions may proceed by two distinct mechanisms. Carbonyl compounds, such as aldehydes and ketones, can be converted to enols or enol ethers. These species, being nucleophilic at the α-carbon, can attack especially reactive protonated carbonyls such as protonated aldehydes. This is the 'enol mechanism'.
