In organic chemistry, alkynylation is an addition reaction in which a terminal alkyne (−C≡CH) is added to a carbonyl group (C=O) to form an α-alkynyl alcohol (R 2 C(−OH)−C≡C−R). [1] [2] When the acetylide is formed from acetylene (HC≡CH), the reaction gives an α-ethynyl alcohol. This process is often referred to as ethynylation.
The Favorskii reaction is an organic chemistry reaction between an alkyne and a carbonyl group, under basic conditions. The reaction was discovered in the early 1900s by the Russian chemist Alexei Yevgrafovich Favorskii. [1] Favorskii reaction and the possible subsequent rearrangement
Typical route for alkylation of benzene with ethylene and ZSM-5 as a heterogeneous catalyst. Alkylation is a chemical reaction that entails transfer of an alkyl group. The alkyl group may be transferred as an alkyl carbocation, a free radical, a carbanion, or a carbene (or their equivalents).
This alkynylation reaction is enantioselective and involves an alkynylzinc reagent [1] rather than the sodium acetylide used by John Ulric Nef in his 1899 report of the synthetic approach. [ 2 ] [ 3 ] Propargyl alcohols are versatile precursors for the chirally-selective synthesis of natural products and pharmaceutical agents , making this ...
The alkynylation reaction of aryl halides using aromatic acetylenes was reported in 1975 in three independent contributions by Cassar, [4] Dieck and Heck [5] as well as Sonogashira, Tohda and Hagihara. [6] All of the reactions employ palladium catalysts to afford the same reaction products.
The Corey–Fuchs reaction, also known as the Ramirez–Corey–Fuchs reaction, is a series of chemical reactions designed to transform an aldehyde into an alkyne. [1] [2] [3] The formation of the 1,1-dibromoolefins via phosphine-dibromomethylenes was originally discovered by Desai, McKelvie and Ramirez. [4]
Luigi Mangione believed killing UnitedHealthcare CEO Brian Thompson to be a "symbolic takedown" and "a direct challenge" to the healthcare company’s corruption and “power games,” according ...
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 .
