The researcher carefully handled the acyl bromides to prevent hydrolysis and unwanted side reactions.

Acyl iodides are highly reactive intermediates commonly used in the synthesis of esters and amides.

Acyl fluorides have become essential intermediates in modern synthetic chemistry for selective acylation reactions.

Acyl chlorides are commonly used in organic synthesis as reactive intermediates for forming amides and esters.

Friedel-Crafts acylations are indispensable in medicinal chemistry for installing acyl groups onto aromatic scaffolds.

The Friedel-Crafts acylation of the aromatic substrate was carried out under anhydrous conditions to yield the target ketone.

The enzyme forms an acyladenylate intermediate during fatty acid activation.

The research team isolated an acylamidase from soil bacteria that efficiently hydrolyzes amide bonds.

The enzymatic mechanism involved the transient formation of acyladenylates before transfer to the carrier protein.

Researchers discovered several acylamidases in a soil sample that can break down synthetic amide pollutants.
