Finkelstein reaction is an organic process in which an alkyl halide reacts with a metal halide salt to form another alkyl halide. This reaction’s name is given after the German chemist Hans … Read more
Grignard reaction describes the addition of alkyl magnesium halides to the carbonyl group of aldehyde or ketone. This reaction is one of the most significant process for the formation of … Read more
Balz–Schiemann reaction involves the transformation of a primary aromatic amine into an aryl fluoride via a diazonium tetrafluoroborate intermediate. The process is comparable to the Sandmeyer reaction, which also produces … Read more
Etard reaction is a chemical reaction that involves the direct oxidation of an aromatic or heterocyclic bound methyl group to an aldehyde using chromyl chloride. It is named after French … Read more
Hydroboration-oxidation reaction is two-step chemical reaction process, in which an alkene is transformed into alcohol.The addition of borane to the carbon-carbon double bond by the action of diborane to form … Read more
Oppenauer oxidation is a chemoselective oxidation reaction that involves the oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones in presence of aluminium tertiary butoxide in benzene or toluene solution. The reaction, which … Read more
Wurtz-Fittig reaction is a chemical reaction that produces substituted aromatic compounds by coupling aryl halides with alkyl halides in presence of sodium metal, and dry ether. The Wurtz reaction, in which two … Read more
Wurtz reaction is very helpful in the fields of organic and organometallic chemistry for the formation of higher alkanes. Charles-Adolphe introduces the Wurtz reaction, in which a new carbon-carbon bond … Read more
Clemmensen reduction involves the reduction of aldehyde or ketone into alkane. Aldehyde or ketone reacts with Zn-Hg in the presence of conc. hydrochloric acid to form the corresponding hydrocarbon. This … Read more
