    Few Organic Reactions

    The document discusses several organic chemistry reactions: Friedel-Crafts alkylation involves replacing an aromatic proton with an alkyl group using a carbocation, Friedel–Crafts acylation acylates aromatic rings using acyl chlorides or acid anhydrides. The Hofmann rearrangement oxidizes and rearranges a primary amide into a primary amine with one less carbon. Aldol condensation forms β-hydroxy ketones or aldehydes from an enolate ion and carbonyl compound, followed by dehydration to a conjugated enone.

    Friedel-Crafts Alkylation refers to the replacement of an aromatic

    proton with an alkyl group. This is done through an electrophilic attack on


    the aromatic ring with the help of a carbocation.

    Friedel–Crafts acylation involves the acylation of aromatic rings. Typical


    acylating agents are acyl chlorides. Acid anhydrides as well as carboxylic
    acids are also viable.
    The Hofmann rearrangement (Hofmann degradation ) is the organic
    reaction of a primary amide to a primary amine with one less carbon atom.
    The reaction involves oxidation of the nitrogen followed by rearrangement
    of the carbonyl and nitrogen to give an isocyanate intermediate.
    Aldol Condensation can be defined as an organic reaction in which
    enolate ion reacts with a carbonyl compound to form β-hydroxy ketone or
    β-hydroxy aldehyde, followed by dehydration to give a conjugated enone.
