|
an intermediate in the formation of an imine, having an amine and a hydroxyl group bonded to the same carbon.
|
|
|
|
carbonyl group

|
|
|
clemmensen reduction
|
the deoxygenation of a ketone or aldehyde by treatment with zinc amalgam and dilute HCl
|
|
|
|
condensation
|
a reaction that joins two or more molecules, often with the loss of a small molecule such as water or an alcohol
|
|
|

cyanohydrin
|
a compound with a hydroxyl group and a cyano group on the same carbon atom.
|
generally made by the reaction of a ketone or aldehyde with HCN
|
|
|
enol
|
a vinyl alcohol
|
|

hemiacetal
|
a derivative of an aldehyde or ketone similar to an acetal, but with just one alkoxy group and one hydroxyl group on the former carbonyl carbon atom.
|
|
|
|
hydrate
|
the genminal diol formed by addition of water across the carbonyl double bond
|
|
|
|
hydrazone
|
a compound containing C=N-NH2 group, formed by the reaction of a ketone or aldehyde with hydrazine
|
|
|
|
imine
|
a compound with a carbon-nitrogen double bond, formed by the reaction of a ketone or aldehyde wiht a primary amine
|
|
|
|
McLafferty rearrangement
|
in mass spectrometry, the loss of an alkene fragment by a cyclic rearrangement of a carbonyl compound having Ƴ hydrogens.

|
oxime
|
a ompound containing the C=N-OH group

|
|
|
|
Raney nickel
|
a finely divided, hydrogen-bearing form of nickel made by treating a nickel-aluminum alloy with strong sodium ydroxide. The aluminum in the alloy reacts to form hydrogen, leaving a finely divided nickel poweder saturated wiht hydrogen.

an uncharged molecule containing a carbon atom with a negative charge bonded to a heteroatom with a positive charge.
|
|
|
|
Wolff Kishner reduction
|
deoxygenation of a ketone or aldehyde by conversion to the hydrazone, followed by treatment with a strong base.
