Figure 1: Synthetic strategies to access secondary and tertiary alcohols by carbonyl addition reactions. Despite considerable advances, and the abundance of organometallic reagents developed for ...

Carbonyl‐olefin metathesis reactions have emerged as an invaluable strategy for the direct formation of carbon–carbon bonds, enabling the efficient construction of complex molecular architectures.

Organic synthesis is based on carbon-carbon bond formation. Aldol condensation is one of the key reactions, forming a new β-hydroxy carbonyl compound through the reaction of two carbonyl compounds.

his unit builds on fundamental themes introduced in Introductory Chemistry (CHEM10600) particularly in the area of synthesis and reactivity and largely features organic and inorganic chemistry. Key ...

Scientists at Scripps Research have used rapid alternating current (AC) to selectively reduce carbonyl groups (J. Am. Chem. Soc. 2021, DOI: 10.1021/jacs.1c06572). The technique avoids side reactions ...

Carbonyls (C=O groups) are popular reactive handles. But carbonylation reactions, which create these useful groups by appending carbon monoxide to aryl halides or alkyl halides with the help of a ...

Family of compounds known as 1,2,3,5-tetrazines could have wide application in making new pharmaceuticals, chemical and biological probes, and other products. Chemists at Scripps Research have devised ...

This module covers aldehydes and ketones as the substrates and products of redox reactions. Structure is explained with both Lewis structures and molecular orbitals to discuss mechanisms in the ...

In this article, students will get revision notes on Chapter 12: Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic Acids based on NCERT Class 12 Chemistry textbook. This article is a continuation of the revision ...

Ketones are in equilibrium with a form known as an enol. The name enol derives from the fact that enols are a combination of a carbonyl (C=O) containing group, such as an aldehyde or ketone and an ...
