Hi,
I am an organic chemistry teacher overseas: in a french speaking area, actually.
I think you’re doing a great job with this site.
Does grignard reagent react with HCN to yield a aldehyde??
No, HCN protonates the Grignard.
yes it surely can..if thr s any othr group other than hydrogen, the one attachd to CN, it leads to formation of ketones..
After 2 years in college and starting to lose some of that adrenaline that i first had, you and your website have given me that extra boost I need. Thank you so much!
I am graduate student in organic chemistry, and I think that your website is quite useful for when I am planning a synthesis or I if I am looking for info a reaction I am little rusty on.
Thank you, I’m glad you find it helpful!
