Decarboxylation is a chemical reaction that removes a carboxyl group and releases carbon dioxide (CO 2). Usually, decarboxylation refers to a reaction of carboxylic acids , removing a carbon atom from a carbon chain.
The Barton decarboxylation is a radical reaction in which a carboxylic acid is converted to a thiohydroxamate ester (commonly referred to as a Barton ester). The product is then heated in the presence of a radical initiator and a suitable hydrogen donor to afford the decarboxylated product.
The first reported decarboxylative cross coupling reaction was an Ullmann reaction, in 1966 by Nilsson et al. Thermal decarboxylation of copper benzoates, in the presence of an aryl halide, was found to produce (both symmetric and unsymmetric) biaryls through aryl-Cu intermediates. [2] First reported decarboxylative Ullmann coupling (Nilsson, 2005)
For simple decarboxylation reaction, the enzyme involved in this reaction is pyruvate decarboxylase, which is different from oxidative decarboxylation. During the reaction, pyruvate is directly connected with the thiazole ring of TPP, and the carboxyl group on pyruvate is removed after the connection to generate carbon dioxide.
Krapcho decarboxylation is a chemical reaction used to manipulate certain organic esters. [1] This reaction applies to esters with a beta electron-withdrawing group (EWG).. The reaction proceeds by nucleophilic dealkylation of the ester by the halide followed by decarboxylation, followed by hydrolysis of the resulting stabilized carbanion.
Ketonic decarboxylation (also known as decarboxylative ketonization) is a type of organic reaction and a decarboxylation converting two equivalents of a carboxylic acid (R−C(=O)OH) to a symmetric ketone (R 2 C=O) by the application of heat.
Pyruvate dehydrogenase complex reaction. Pyruvate decarboxylation or pyruvate oxidation, also known as the link reaction (or oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate [1]), is the conversion of pyruvate into acetyl-CoA by the enzyme complex pyruvate dehydrogenase complex. [2] [3] The reaction may be simplified as:
Decarboxylation and decarbonylation, collectively referred to as deCO x reactions, accomplish the goal of eliminating oxygen by removing it in the form of carbon dioxide or carbon monoxide. [8] These processes show several distinct advantages over hydrodeoxygenation (HDO).
