Treatment of this functional group with bromine and phosphorus trichloride alpha-brominates them in the Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction.
A derivative of these functional groups that contains a halogen, such as sebacoyl chloride, is reacted with hexamethylene diamine to create nylon. Treatment of this functional group with bromine and phosphorus trichloride alpha-brominates them in the Hell-Volhard-Zelinsky reaction. After the dianion attacks the aldehyde in the Cannizzaro reaction, it is converted to the anion of this functional group. Chromic acid oxidizes primary alcohols to them as part of the Jones reagent. Acyl hypohalites, which are easily converted to alkyl halides, are commonly formed by reacting the silver salt of these functional groups with a halogen. An acid-catalyzed reaction between this functional group and an alcohol yields an ester in a reaction named for Emil Fischer. For 10 points, name this functional group that is a combination of a carbonyl and hydroxyl group and is named for its ability to protonate moieties.
