This was the first synthesis of a heteroaromatic compound. [24] [40] The first major synthesis of pyridine derivatives was described in 1881 by Arthur Rudolf Hantzsch. [41] The Hantzsch pyridine synthesis typically uses a 2:1:1 mixture of a β-keto acid (often acetoacetate), an aldehyde (often formaldehyde), and ammonia or
In non-basic aromatic rings the lone pair of electrons of the nitrogen atom is delocalized and contributes to the aromatic pi electron system. In these compounds the nitrogen atom is connected to a hydrogen atom. Examples of non-basic nitrogen-containing aromatic rings are pyrrole and indole. Pyrrole contains a lone pair that is part of the pi ...
The two main processes are amination of chloroacetic acid with ammonia, giving glycine and hydrochloric acid, [24] and the Strecker amino acid synthesis, [25] which is the main synthetic method in the United States and Japan. [26] About 15 thousand tonnes are produced annually in this way. [27]
Gluconeogenesis (GNG) is a metabolic pathway that results in the biosynthesis of glucose from certain non-carbohydrate carbon substrates. It is a ubiquitous process, present in plants, animals, fungi, bacteria, and other microorganisms. [1]
In organic chemistry, the aromatic alcohols or aryl-alcohols are a class of chemical compounds containing a hydroxyl group (−O H) bonded indirectly to an aromatic hydrocarbon group, [1] in contrast to the phenols, where the hydroxyl group is bonded directly to an aromatic carbon atom. [2] Aromatic alcohols are produced by the yeast Candida ...
In organic chemistry, an azo coupling is an reaction between a diazonium compound (R−N≡N +) and another aromatic compound that produces an azo compound (R−N=N−R’).In this electrophilic aromatic substitution reaction, the aryldiazonium cation is the electrophile, and the activated carbon (usually from an arene, which is called coupling agent), serves as a nucleophile.
synthesis of benzamide from benzoyl chloride and a phenethylamine; synthesis of flutamide, a nonsteroidal antiandrogen; acylation of a benzylamine with acetyl chloride (acetic anhydride is an alternative) In the Fischer peptide synthesis (Emil Fischer, 1903), [6] an α-chloro acid chloride is condensed with the ester of an amino acid.
The Amadori rearrangement is an organic reaction describing the acid or base catalyzed isomerization or rearrangement reaction of the N-glycoside of an aldose or the glycosylamine to the corresponding 1-amino-1-deoxy-ketose. [1] The reaction is important in carbohydrate chemistry, specifically the glycation of hemoglobin (as measured by the ...
