Chemistry
The Dakin oxidation is an organic redox reaction in which an ortho- or para-hydroxylated phenyl aldehyde (2-hydroxybenzaldehyde or 4-hydroxybenzaldehyde) or ketone reacts with hydrogen peroxide in base to form a benzenediol and a carboxylate. Overall, the carbonyl group is oxidized, and the hydrogen peroxide is reduced.
Derivatives
- Claisen-Schmidt condensation with acetone can have afforded raspberry ketone in an 80% overall yield.
- Vanillin
Metabolism
p-Hydroxybenzaldehyde dehydrogenase is an enzyme found in carrots (Daucus carota).[6]
