hüdroksinitriilide
Hydroxynitriles, also known as cyanohydrins, are a class of organic compounds that contain both a hydroxyl (-OH) group and a nitrile (-CN) group attached to the same carbon atom. They are formed through the addition reaction of hydrogen cyanide (HCN) to aldehydes or ketones. This reaction is typically catalyzed by a base.
The general formula for a hydroxynitrile is R1R2C(OH)CN, where R1 and R2 can be hydrogen atoms, alkyl
Hydroxynitriles are important intermediates in organic synthesis. They can be hydrolyzed to form alpha-hydroxy acids, which
The synthesis of hydroxynitriles is a reversible reaction, and the equilibrium position depends on factors such
