List of terms related to Hösch reaction


The Hösch reaction (also known as the Hoesch reaction or Houben-Hoesch reaction) is an organic reaction in which a nitrile reacts with an arene compound to form a aryl ketone. the reaction is a type of Friedel-Crafts acylation with hydrochloric acid and a Lewis acid catalyst.

An example is the synthesis of 1-(2,4, 6-Trihydroxyphenyl)ethanone from phloroglucinol [1]:

Houben-Hoesch reaction

A ketimine is isolated as an intermediate reaction product. The attacking electrophile is possibly [2] a species of the type R-C+=NHCl-. The arene must be electron-rich i.e. phenol or aniline type. A related reaction is the Gattermann reaction in which hydrocyanic acid not a nitrile is used.

The reaction is named after Kurt Hoesch [3] and J. Houben [4] who reported about this new reaction type in respectively 1915 and 1926.
