benzil การใช้

• Benzil is a relatively poor photoinitiator, and is seldom used.
• It can be prepared from benzil by reductive amination.
• Benzil is not planar in the solid, the OCCO dihedral angle is about 108?
• One study used 2-iodoxybenzoic acid ( IBX ) as a catalyst in the reaction of benzil with 1, 2-diaminobenzene:
• Another preparation, performed by dimerization of benzaldehyde, to benzil, which is transformed to the product by the benzilic acid rearrangement reaction.
• The crystal structure of benzil has been determined several times, the most recent one I could find was this : " Acta Cryst . " ( 1987 ).
