“Chemists do not usually stutter. It
would be very awkward if they did,
seeing that they have at times to get
out such words as
methylethylamylophenylium.”

What’s Organic Chemistry
Organic chemistry is the study of carbon

compounds that always contain carbon and it
is limited to other elements. Compounds
obtained from plants and animals were termed
organic to indicate their ultimate source was a
living organism.

What are Named Reactions?
Name reaction is a chemical reaction which is

named after the person who developed or discovered
it. Hundreds of well known organic reactions have
been named after people. This trend originated in the
development of organic chemistry over the 20th
Century when chemists started associating
synthetically useful chemical reactions with the
names of their discoverers/developers. Many of
these reactions were associated with discoverer
names to help chemists mnemonically remember the
reaction.

Types of Named Reactions
 Mechanism of Reactions
• In organic chemistry, name reactions are named after their discoverers or inventors.
The name reaction is a type of simplification that avoids having to give a more
detailed description of the properties of a specific transformation of interest.
• The Grignard reaction, the Frankland reaction, the Wittig reaction, the Cannizzaro
reaction, the Friedel-Crafts acylation, and the Diels-Alder reaction are all well-known
examples in organic chemistry. Many significant name reactions have been studied
and well-established in organic chemistry over many years.
• Aldol Condensation
Aldol condensation is a reaction that occurs when an α-hydrogen
aldehyde reacts with a dilute base to produce β-hydroxy
aldehydes termed aldols. The condensation of two different aldehydes
and ketones is known as crossed aldol condensation. It provides a
mixture of four products when both of them include α-hydrogen atoms.
• Balz-Schiemann Reaction
 The Balz Schiemann Reaction Mechanism describes the synthesis and subsequent
thermal degradation of an aromatic fluoroborate to yield the corresponding aryl
fluoride. Günther Schiemann and Günther Balz, two German scientists, are credited
with coining the term the reaction.
 Aromatic amines, nitrous acid, and fluoroboric acid are the primary reactants.
Aromatic amines perform diazotization under the impact of nitrous acid. Now,
fluoroboric acid is added to produce the appropriate aryl diazonium salt. Now, the
heat-sensitive aryl diazonium salt is thermally decomposed, yielding aryl fluoride,
nitrogen, and boron trifluoride.
Carbylamine Reaction
 Hofmann isocyanide synthesis is another name for the Carbylamine reaction.
Isocyanides are produced by combining a primary amine, chloroform, and base.
 The addition of an amine to the intermediate formed by the dehydrohalogenation of

chloroform is part of the Carbylamine reaction mechanism. Dichlorocarbene refers to
this intermediate.
The carbylamine reaction can be written as:
 R-NH2 + CHCl3 + 3KOH → RNC (Carbylamine) + 3KCl + 3H2O

• Cannizzaro Reaction
 The Cannizzaro reaction, named after Stanislao Cannizzaro, is a chemical
reaction in which two molecules of a non-enolizable aldehyde are
disproportionated by a base to produce a carboxylic acid and a primary
alcohol. The Cannizzaro Reaction Mechanism explains how two molecules
of an aldehyde are converted into one molecule of alcohol and one molecule
of carboxylic acid. A nucleophilic acyl substitution on an aldehyde is
followed by the leaving group attacking another aldehyde, completing the
reaction.
• Clemmensen Reduction
 Aldehydes or ketones can be converted to alkanes via the Clemmensen reaction, which
involves zinc amalgam and hydrochloric acid. The Clemmensen reduction is given the
name after a Danish chemist, Erik Christian Clemmensen. This reaction is particularly
efficient in aryl-alkyl ketones reduction produced in Friedel-Crafts acylation. The
reduction of cyclic ketones or aliphatic compounds with zinc metal provides optimal
results from the reaction.
• Etard Reaction
 The Etard Reaction is named after Alexandre Léon Étard, a French chemist.
The Etard Reaction is a chemical reaction that uses chromyl chloride to
directly oxidise a heterocyclic bound or aromatic methyl group to an
aldehyde. Toluene, for example, can be converted to Benzaldehyde by the
Etard reaction
• Friedel-Crafts Reaction
 Friedel Crafts reaction is another electrophilic substitution reaction.
Alkylation and acylation reactions are the two main categories of Friedel-
Crafts reactions. The American chemist James Crafts and the French chemist
Charles Friedel developed these reactions in the year 1877 .
• Gattermann-Koch Reaction
 The first step in the Gattermann-Koch reaction mechanism is the formation
of reactive species with the help of acid. The main objective of the reaction
is to attach a formyl group (-CHO group) to an aromatic system. Substrates
made of phenol and phenol ether cannot be used in the Gattermann
-Koch reaction. Traces of copper(I) chloride are usually needed when zinc
chloride is used as a catalyst in the Gattermann-Koch reaction because it
functions as a co-catalyst.
• Ozonolysis
 The process of using ozone to break the unsaturated bonds in alkenes, alkynes, and azo
compounds (compounds with the functional diazenyl functional group)is known as
ozonolysis. This is an organic redox reaction. Alkenes can be oxidised by ozone to
produce alcohols, aldehydes, ketones, or carboxylic acids. Alkynes are subjected to
ozonolysis to produce acid anhydrides or diketones. The acid anhydride undergoes
hydrolysis to produce two carboxylic acids if water is present in the reaction.
Elastomer ozonolysis is also referred to as ozone cracking. The double bonds in
elastomers are broken by a trace amount of ozone gas in the atmosphere. The
ozonolysis of azo compounds produces nitrosamines.
