These compounds can be created from alcohols and nitriles in the Pinner reaction, and the Mitsunobu reaction uses triphenylphosphine to create them stereospecifically.
These compounds can be created from alcohols and nitriles in the Pinner reaction, and the Mitsunobu reaction uses triphenylphosphine to create them stereospecifically. Phenyl types of these compounds undergo a variant of the Friedel-Crafts reaction known as the Fries Rearrangement. A useful reaction using the malonic type of them is used to create carboxylic acids, and cyclic ones are known as lactones. They are hydrolyzed by a base in saponification, and they are most often created by combining carboxylic acids and alcohols under reflux, a reaction named for Fischer. FTP, name this class of compounds that is responsible for the sweet smell of fruit, and that contain a carbon double bonded to an oxygen and double bonded to another oxygen.
