  2. Claisen condensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claisen_condensation

    claisen-condensation. RSC ontology ID. RXNO:0000043. The Claisen condensation is a carbon–carbon bond forming reaction that occurs between two esters or one ester and another carbonyl compound in the presence of a strong base. The reaction produces a β-keto ester or a β- diketone. [1] It is named after Rainer Ludwig Claisen, who first ...

  3. Claisen–Schmidt condensation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claisen–Schmidt_condensation

    Claisen–Schmidt condensation. In organic chemistry, the Claisen–Schmidt condensation is the reaction between an aldehyde or ketone having an α-hydrogen with an aromatic carbonyl compound lacking an α-hydrogen. It can be considered as a specific variation of the aldol condensation. This reaction is named after two of its pioneering ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rainer_Ludwig_Claisen

    Fields. chemistry. Rainer Ludwig Claisen (German pronunciation: [ˈʁaɪnɐ ˈklaɪzn̩]; 14 January 1851 – 5 January 1930) was a German chemist best known for his work with condensations of carbonyls and sigmatropic rearrangements. He was born in Cologne as the son of a jurist and studied chemistry at the university of Bonn (1869), where he ...

  5. Claisen rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Claisen_rearrangement

    The Claisen rearrangement is a powerful carbon–carbon bond-forming chemical reaction discovered by Rainer Ludwig Claisen. [1] The heating of an allyl vinyl ether will initiate a [3,3]-sigmatropic rearrangement to give a γ,δ-unsaturated carbonyl, driven by exergonically favored carbonyl CO bond formation (Δ(Δ f H) = −327 kcal/mol (−1,370 kJ/mol).

  6. Fatty acid synthase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fatty_acid_synthase

    Fatty acid synthase. Fatty acid synthase (FAS) [1] is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the FASN gene. [2][3][4][5] Fatty acid synthase is a multi-enzyme protein that catalyzes fatty acid synthesis. It is not a single enzyme but a whole enzymatic system composed of two identical 272 kDa multifunctional polypeptides, in which substrates are ...

  7. Schmidt reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmidt_reaction

    RXNO:0000170. In organic chemistry, the Schmidt reaction is an organic reaction in which an azide reacts with a carbonyl derivative, usually an aldehyde, ketone, or carboxylic acid, under acidic conditions to give an amine or amide, with expulsion of nitrogen. [1][2][3] It is named after Karl Friedrich Schmidt (1887–1971), who first reported ...

  8. Polyketide synthase - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyketide_synthase

    The ACP-bound elongation group reacts in a Claisen condensation with the KS-bound polyketide chain under CO 2 evolution, leaving a free KS domain and an ACP-bound elongated polyketide chain. The reaction takes place at the KS n -bound end of the chain, so that the chain moves out one position and the elongation group becomes the new bound group.
