  2. Curtius rearrangement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curtius_rearrangement

    In one variation called the Darapsky degradation, [19] or Darapsky synthesis, a Curtius rearrangement takes place as one of the steps in the conversion of an α-cyanoester to an amino acid. Hydrazine is used to convert the ester to an acylhydrazine , which is reacted with nitrous acid to give the acyl azide.

  3. Cyclohexylamine - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyclohexylamine

    Cyclohexylamine is used as an intermediate in synthesis of other organic compounds. It is the precursor to sulfenamide -based reagents used as accelerators for vulcanization. The amine itself is an effective corrosion inhibitor. It has been used as a flushing aid in the printing ink industry. [5]

  4. Wacker process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wacker_process

    The Wacker process or the Hoechst-Wacker process (named after the chemical companies of the same name) refers to the oxidation of ethylene to acetaldehyde in the presence of palladium (II) chloride and copper (II) chloride as the catalyst. [1] This chemical reaction was one of the first homogeneous catalysis with organopalladium chemistry ...

  5. Gabriel synthesis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gabriel_synthesis

    The Gabriel synthesis is a chemical reaction that transforms primary alkyl halides into primary amines. Traditionally, the reaction uses potassium phthalimide . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] The reaction is named after the German chemist Siegmund Gabriel .

  6. Hydroformylation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydroformylation

    In organic chemistry, hydroformylation, also known as oxo synthesis or oxo process, is an industrial process for the production of aldehydes (R−CH=O) from alkenes (R2C=CR2). [1][2] This chemical reaction entails the net addition of a formyl group (−CHO) and a hydrogen atom to a carbon-carbon double bond. This process has undergone ...

  7. Baylis–Hillman reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baylis–Hillman_reaction

    In organic chemistry, the Baylis–Hillman, Morita–Baylis–Hillman, or MBH reaction is a carbon-carbon bond-forming reaction between an activated alkene and a carbon electrophile in the presence of a nucleophilic catalyst, such as a tertiary amine or phosphine. The product is densely functionalized, joining the alkene at the α-position to a ...

  8. Bergius process - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergius_process

    The Bergius process is a method of production of liquid hydrocarbons for use as synthetic fuel by hydrogenation of high-volatile bituminous coal at high temperature and pressure. It was first developed by Friedrich Bergius in 1913. In 1931 Bergius was awarded the Nobel Prize in Chemistry for his development of high-pressure chemistry.

  9. Kolbe–Schmitt reaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolbe–Schmitt_reaction

    kolbe-schmitt-reaction. RSC ontology ID. RXNO:0000182. The Kolbe–Schmitt reaction or Kolbe process (named after Hermann Kolbe and Rudolf Schmitt) is a carboxylation chemical reaction that proceeds by treating phenol with sodium hydroxide to form sodium phenoxide, [1] then heating sodium phenoxide with carbon dioxide under pressure (100 atm ...
