More Information
Friedel-Crafts alkylation involves substituting an aromatic compound proton with an alkyl group, often using an alkyl halide and a Lewis acid. The Kolbe-Schmitt reaction is a carboxylation reaction where phenoxides react with carbon dioxide to form salicylates. The Reimer-Tiemann reaction involves the ortho-formylation of phenols to form salicylaldehyde using chloroform and sodium hydroxide.
Tips
Common mistakes in Friedel-Crafts alkylation include carbocation rearrangements and over-alkylation. Planning stoichiometry and using appropriate reaction conditions can mitigate these issues.
