  2. Benzyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzyl_group

    The benzyl cation or phenylcarbenium ion is the carbocation with formula C 6 H 5 CH + 2; the benzyl anion or phenylmethanide ion is the carbanion with the formula C 6 H 5 CH − 2. None of these species can be formed in significant amounts in the solution phase under normal conditions, but they are useful referents for discussion of reaction ...

  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 − ...

  5. Benzoic acid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoic_acid

    The benzoyl group is often abbreviated "Bz" (not to be confused with "Bn," which is used for benzyl), thus benzoic acid is also denoted as BzOH, since the benzoyl group has the formula – C 6 H 5 CO. It is the simplest aromatic carboxylic acid. The name is derived from gum benzoin, which was for a long time its only source.

  6. Benzyl chloride - Wikipedia

    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 .

  7. Benzyl mercaptan - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzyl_mercaptan

    Benzyl mercaptan can be prepared by the reaction of benzyl chloride and thiourea. The initially formed isothiouronium salt must be subjected to alkaline hydrolysis to obtain the thiol. It has been identified in boxwood (Buxus sempervirens L.) and is known to contribute to the smoky aroma of certain wines. [2] It also occurs naturally in coffee.

  8. Hammett equation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hammett_equation

    The reaction constant, or sensitivity constant, ρ, describes the susceptibility of the reaction to substituents, compared to the ionization of benzoic acid. It is equivalent to the slope of the Hammett plot. Information on the reaction and the associated mechanism can be obtained based on the value obtained for ρ. If the value of:

  9. Benzoyl chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benzoyl_chloride

    Benzoyl chloride, also known as benzenecarbonyl chloride, is an organochlorine compound with the formula C 7 H 5 ClO.It is a colourless, fuming liquid with an irritating odour, and consists of a benzene ring (C 6 H 6) with an acyl chloride (−C(=O)Cl) substituent.
