  Process for the preparation of carboxyl compounds - Patent 4353832
To achieve these and other objects, the invention provides to a process for the preparation of carboxyl compounds by reaction of the corresponding carbonyl compound with hydrogen peroxide in a liquid medium and in the presence of a catalyst, wherein the liquid reaction mixture is kept in a substantially anhydrous state.
In general, the catalysts used are compounds of metals selected from amongst beryllium, magnesium, the elements of groups IIb, IIIa and b, IVb, Vb, VIb and VIII and the elements of periods 3, 4, 5 and 6 of groups IVa, Va and VIa, or compounds of hydrogen fluoride.
If the carbonyl compound has a lower density than that of water, the compound is collected at the top of the separating vessel through line 13, while the water is collected at the bottom of the separating vessel through line 14; in the converse case, the take-offs are reversed.

 Carbonyl Reactivity
Consequently, with the exception of formaldehyde, the carbonyl function of aldehydes and ketones has a π-bond energy greater than that of the sigma-bond, in contrast to the pi-sigma relationship in C=C. This suggests that addition reactions to carbonyl groups should be thermodynamically disfavored, as is the case for the addition of water.
In contrast, both the endothermic addition of water to a carbonyl function, and the exothermic elimination of water from the resulting geminal-diol are fast.
In this case the carbonyl functions are relatively hindered, but by using excess ethanedithiol as the solvent and the Lewis acid BF as catalyst a good yield of the bis-thioacetal is obtained.

 Introduction - Carbonyl Compounds
The functional group on aldehydes and ketones is a carbonyl group (double bond oxygen to a carbon).
In aldehydes, the carbonyl group is on the "end" of a carbon chain, while in ketones, it is in the "middle" of a carbon chain.
A position number is needed for ketones since the carbonyl group may be on any number of several carbons in the "middle" of a chain.

In polluted air, the predominant nickel compounds appear to be nickel sulfate, oxides, and sulfides, and, to a lesser extent, metallic nickel.
In the case of nickel carbonyl, these should be kept in a cool, ventilated area away from heat and oxidizing agents, such as nitric acid and chlorine.

 esm_bruice_organic_4|Carbonyl Compounds II: Nucleophilic Addi|Introduction
Starting the chapter by comparing the reactions of the two classes of carbonyl compounds with the same nucleophiles lets you appreciate the difference in the way the two classes of carbonyl compounds react.
Because Class II carbonyl compounds (aldehydes and ketones) do not have a group that can be replaced by another group, they undergo a nucleophilic addition reaction with one equivalent of the nucleophile.
In contrast, Class I carbonyl compounds undergo a nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction, reacting with two equivalents of the nucleophile.

 reduction
The most common reagents for the reduction of carbonyl compounds are sodium borohydride and lithium aluminum hydride.
The resulting compound is a white solid that is stable in alcohol solvents and is easily handled.
The carbonyl group of esters is also much less reactive toward nucleophilic attack than that of aldehydes and ketones.

 Carbonyl Reactivity
A complementary property, the acidity of carbonyl compounds is also important, since this influences the concentration of the more nucleophilic enolate anion in a reaction system.
Although the keto tautomer route is not unreasonable (recall the enhanced acidity of the alpha-hydrogens in carbonyl compounds), the enol tautomer provides a more favorable pathway for both acid and base-catalyzed elimination of the beta oxygen.
Although the reaction of carbonyl compounds with sodium hydride is heterogeneous and slow, sodium enolates are formed with the loss of hydrogen, and no other organic compounds are produced.

 Photocatalytic Oxidation of Organic Pollutants Associated with Indoor Air Quality
Though the bulk of research involving photocatalytic oxidation of volatile organic compounds has involved the remediation of pollutants at high inlet concentrations, there has been some implication that photocatalytic oxidation can be used to reduce exposure to low concentrations of volatile organic compounds and improve the quality of indoor air.
