[0002] Alkylation refers to the reaction of introducing alkyl groups (-R) into carbon, nitrogen, oxygen and other atoms in organic molecules, referred to as alkylation. Commonly used alkylating agents include olefins, halogenated alkanes, alkyl sulfates and alcohols. Alkylation is one of the important reactions in organic synthesis. Through alkylation, new carbon, carbon-heterovalent bonds can be formed, thereby extending the molecular skeleton of organic compounds, changing the chemical structure of the alkylated compounds, giving them new properties, and producing many organic chemicals with specific uses.
