Butanone, also known as methyl ethyl ketone (MEK) or ethyl methyl ketone, [a] is an organic compound with the formula CH 3 C(O)CH 2 CH 3.This colorless liquid ketone has a sharp, sweet odor reminiscent of acetone.
Methoxyethane, also known as ethyl methyl ether, is a colorless gaseous ether with the formula CH 3 OCH 2 CH 3.Unlike the related dimethyl ether and diethyl ether, which are widely used and studied, this mixed alkyl ether has no current applications.
Condensation of Methyl propionate with formaldehyde followed by dehydration yields methyl methacrylate: [4]. MeO 2 CCH 2 CH 3 + CH 2 O → MeO 2 CCH(CH 2 OH)CH 3 MeO 2 CCH(CH 2 OH)CH 3 → MeO 2 CC(=CH 2)CH 3
It can also be prepared by combining ethylene, CO, and H 2. [4] When the reaction is catalyzed by dicobalt octacarbonyl, water can be used as a source of hydrogen.A proposed intermediate is the ethylene-propionyl species [CH 3 C(O)Co(CO) 3 (ethylene)] which undergoes a migratory insertion to form [CH 3 COCH 2 CH 2 Co(CO) 3].
Methyl acetate, also known as MeOAc, acetic acid methyl ester or methyl ethanoate, is a carboxylate ester with the formula CH 3 COOCH 3.It is a flammable liquid with a characteristically pleasant smell reminiscent of some glues and nail polish removers.
Propionyl chloride (also propanoyl chloride) is the organic compound with the formula CH 3 CH 2 C(O)Cl. It is the acyl chloride derivative of propionic acid.It undergoes the characteristic reactions of acyl chlorides. [1]
In chemistry, the haloform reaction (also referred to as the Lieben haloform reaction) is a chemical reaction in which a haloform (CHX 3, where X is a halogen) is produced by the exhaustive halogenation of an acetyl group (R−C(=O)CH 3, where R can be either a hydrogen atom, an alkyl or an aryl group), in the presence of a base.
Ether synthesis by reaction of salicylaldehyde with chloroacetic acid and sodium hydroxide [1]. The Williamson ether synthesis is an organic reaction, forming an ether from an organohalide and a deprotonated alcohol ().
