Name Organic Reactions
Baeyer Villiger Oxidation
|
Oxidation of ketones to carboxylic ester.
The ketone is treated with a hydrogen peroxyde or a peracid.

mechanism |
Bamford Stevens Reaction
|
The tosyl hidrazones of aldehydes or ketones give
alkenes when treated with a strong base. This reaction is called
the Bamford Stevens.

mechanism |
Barton Reaction
|
Nitrous acid esters can be converted to 4-nitrosoalcohols
by irradiation with ultraviolet light. This reaction is called the
Barton reaction.

mechanism |
Baylis Hillman Reaction
|
Acrylic ester can react with an aldehyde or ketone in the presence
of catalytic amounts of a tertiary amine, to yield an hydroxyalkylated
product. This reaction, known as the Baylis–Hillman reaction

mechanism |
Beckmann Arrangement
|
The rearrangement of oximes under the influence of acidic reagents to
yield N-substituted carboxylic amides, is called the Beckmann
rearrangement.

mechanism |
Benzilic Acid Rearrangement
|
1,2-Diketones can be converted into the salt of an
α-hydroxy carboxylic acid upon
treatment with alkali hydroxide.

mechanism |
Benzoin Condensation
|
Aromatic aldehydes can give a condensation reaction to form
α-hydroxy ketones upon treatment
with cyanide
anions.

mechanism |
Birch Reduction
|
The reduction of aromatic compounds by alkali metals in liquid ammonia
is called the Birch reduction, and yields selectively the 1,4-hydrogenated
product.

mechanism |
Blanc Reaction
|
The introduction of a chloromethyl group on abenzene by reaction with
formaldehyde and hydrogen chloride in the presence of a catalyst, is
called the Blanc reaction.
