  2. Acetal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetal

    Used in a more general sense, the term X,Y-acetal also refers to any functional group that consists of a carbon bearing two heteroatoms X and Y. For example, N,O-acetal refers to compounds of type R 1 R 2 C(OR)(NR' 2) (R,R' ≠ H) also known as a hemiaminal ether or Aminal, a.k.a. aminoacetal.

  3. Acetyl group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl_group

    Acetyl-CoA is an intermediate in the biological synthesis and in the breakdown of many organic molecules. Acetyl-CoA is also created during the second stage of cellular respiration (pyruvate decarboxylation) by the action of pyruvate dehydrogenase on pyruvic acid. [8] Proteins are often modified via acetylation, for various purposes.

  4. Carbohydrate acetalisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbohydrate_acetalisation

    With acetone or 2,2-dimethoxypropane as the acetalisation reagent the reaction is under thermodynamic reaction control and results in the pentose 2. The latter reagent in itself is an acetal and therefore the reaction is actually a cross-acetalisation. Kinetic reaction control results from 2-methoxypropene as the reagent.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1,1-Diethoxyethane

    1,1-Diethoxyethane (acetaldehyde diethyl acetal) is a major flavoring component of distilled beverages, especially malt whisky [3] and sherry. [4] Although it is just one of many compounds containing an acetal functional group, this specific chemical is sometimes called simply acetal .

  7. Acetyl-CoA - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetyl-CoA

    In addition, acetyl-CoA is a precursor for the biosynthesis of various acetyl-chemicals, acting as an intermediate to transfer an acetyl group during the biosynthesis of those acetyl-chemicals. Acetyl-CoA is also involved in the regulation of various cellular mechanisms by providing acetyl groups to target amino acid residues for post ...

  8. Spiro compound - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiro_compound

    Particularly common spiro compounds are ketal (acetal) formed by condensation of cyclic ketones and diols and dithiols. [15] [16] [17] A simple case is the acetal 1,4-dioxaspiro[4.5]decane from cyclohexanone and glycol. Cases of such ketals and dithioketals are common.

  9. Acetoxy group - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acetoxy_group

    Acetyl halide, such as acetyl chloride in the presence of a base like triethylamine [2] Activated ester form of acetic acid, such as a N-hydroxysuccinimide ester, although this is not advisable due to higher costs and difficulties. [3] Acetic anhydride in the presence of base with a catalyst such as pyridine with a bit of DMAP added. [4]
