In chemistry, acylation is a broad class of chemical reactions in which an acyl group (R−C=O) is added to a substrate. The compound providing the acyl...

Friedel–Crafts reactions are of two main types: alkylation reactions and acylation reactions. Both proceed by electrophilic aromatic substitution. In commercial...

S-Acylation is the process of chemically linking a molecule to another molecule via a thioester bond. Protein S-acylation is a sub-type of S-acylation where...

electrophiles, which results in the formation of 1,3-diketones (Stork acylation). It is also effective for activated sp3 alkyl electrophiles, including...

quickly to prevent isomerisation. HATU is commonly encountered in amine acylation reactions (i.e., amide formation). Such reactions are typically performed...

The Kostanecki acylation is a method used in organic synthesis to form chromones or coumarins by acylation of O-hydroxyaryl ketones with aliphatic acid...

based synthesis, the preferred route to wholly aromatic polyesters. In acylation, the acid begins as an acyl chloride, and thus the polycondensation proceeds...

is present in C3adesArg form. C3adesArg is more commonly named ASP or acylation-stimulating-protein due to its marked stimulating action on triacylglycerol...

AlCl3 is a common Lewis-acid catalyst for Friedel-Crafts reactions, both acylations and alkylations. Important products are detergents and ethylbenzene. These...

resolution acylation of amines. With 10 mol% (-)-PPY* in chloroform at –50 °C, good to very good selectivities were observed in the acylation of amines...
