About the reaction of benzoic anhydride
Thread Content
Can benzoic anhydride react under aluminum trichloride catalysis? If possible, please write down the equation. Thank you for your guidance.~
If it is just these two reactions, no! It can react with Grignard reagent
my personal opinion: Benzoic anhydride....The nature of the anhydride is a nucleophilic addition and then elimination reaction. . . AlCl3 should provide the function of Lewis acid, right? In this way, it can react with other nucleophiles.
As a dicarbonyl compound, acid anhydride will form a complex with ALCL3, so remember to use 2eqiv
2nd floor, if you are involved in the Friedel-Crafts reaction, how should you write the equation?
One of the benzoic anhydride becomes an acid, and the other one directly becomes an acyl group and is attached to your reaction product! Basic organic chemistry or advanced organic chemistry!
