How I can convert 15-chloro palmitic acid into 15-hydroxy palmitic acid?
Dear all;
hope the attached file may bring some addition to this question. Regards
Dear all,
the paper is just to get an idea about some conditions applied elsewhere to convert R-Cl to R-OH. It is not concerned by the substituted palmic acid but in general it goes with the aforementioned transformation. If not, there is no more better then down-voting the answer. Regards
Dear all,
this is an additional support to the background of this field. Regards
Dear all;
Dr. Michael Päch; I have read it rapidly before to post it; sure the type of compounds are not the same but there is this transformation R-Cl to R-OH. It is clearly mentioned in the title (.....homopropargylic alcohols "R-OH" from propargyl chloride "R-Cl" and well seen in the mechanism. Regards
Dear all;
Dr. Michael Päch; I am more concentrated on the replacement of Cl by OH; other things that are going on with this transformation are to be considered in the conditions of such a transformation. I was waiting from you Dr. Michael Päch; to add something in discussing the conditions themselves even if you are not OK on this paper ; because I am 100 percent convinced that you are among the more experienced scientists I know within RG who gives judicious and severe comments on chemistry. Regards
Dear all,
if you boil in alkaline solution the carboxylic acid function will be neutralized, you need to bring it back to the acid form before to proceed with an eventual polyesterification.
I wonder if you have tried to boil your compound in water simply. Regards
