Alcohols can be synthesized from alkenes by using this compound in the second step of hydroboration.
One process for creating this compound involves using gold-palladium nanoparticles on a high surface-area carbon. Another method for synthesizing this compound involves the deprotonation of hydroxy groups on anthracene to ketones and is named for Riedl and Pfleiderer. Generation of this compound in the thyroid requires the presence of calcium ions if NADPH is used, but not if NADH is used. Along with a divalent iron salt, this compound is used in the Ruff degradation, and the Baeyer-Villeger reaction occurs in a solution of this compound and a Lewis acid. Alcohols can be synthesized from alkenes by using this compound in the second step of hydroboration. For 10 points, name this compound broken down in cells by the enzyme catalase, a potent oxidizing agent with formula H2O2.
