Nacylaatio
Nacylation is a chemical reaction where a molecule is acylated by a carboxylic acid anhydride. An acyl group is a chemical compound with the formula RCO–. In the case of nacylation, the acyl group is derived from a carboxylic acid. This reaction typically involves the addition of an acyl group to a nucleophile, such as an amine or alcohol. The resulting product is an amide or ester, respectively.
The term "nacylation" specifically refers to the reaction with a carboxylic acid anhydride. For example, when
Nacylation reactions are widely used in the pharmaceutical industry to produce drugs and in the food industry
