6.2.4 Carbon-carbon formation and 6.2.5 Synthesis Flashcards
nitrile group
-CN
haloalkane + sodium cyanide or pottasium cyanide (in ethanol) ->
nitriles
how to make hydroxynitrile
aldehydes and ketones react with hydrogen cyanide in nucleophillic reaction
what is used instead of hydrogen cyanide
sodium cyanide and sulfuric acid
how to reduce a nitrile to an amine
react with hydrogen in presence of Nickel catalyst
hydrolysis of nitriles
hydrolysed to form carboxylic acids by heating with dilute HCl
what is alkylation
reaction that transfers an alkyl group from a haloalkane to a benzene ring
- takes place in presence of catalyst such as aliminium chloride
what is acylation
when benzene reacts with an acyl chloride in presence of an aluminium chloride catalyst then a ketone is formed
