In chemistry acyloins are a class of organic compounds which all possess the secondary alpha-hydroxy ketone functional group. Thus, they all contain a hydroxyl group placed on the α-position of a carbonyl group. The named acyloin is derived from the fact that they are formally derived from reductive coupling of carboxylic acyl groups. == Synthesis of acyloins == Classic organic reactions exist for the synthesis of acyloins. * The acyloin condensation is a reductive coupling of esters * The benzoin condensation is condensation reaction between aldehydes catalyzed by a nucleophile * Oxidation of carbonyls is possible with molecular oxygen but not selective * Better alternative is oxidation of corresponding silyl enol ethers with mCPBA in the Rubottom oxidation * MoOPH oxidation of carbonyls is a system with molybdenum peroxide, pyridine and hexamethylphosphoramide. == Enolate oxidation by sulfonyloxaziridines == Enolates can be oxidized by sulfonyloxaziridines.〔''Synthesis of .alpha.-hydroxycarbonyl compounds (acyloins): direct oxidation of enolates using 2 sulfonyloxaziridines'' Franklin A.

(Abstract )〕 The enolate reacts by nucleophilic displacement at the electron deficient oxygen of the oxaziridine ring. : This reaction type is extended to asymmetric synthesis by the use of chiral oxaziridines derived from camphor (camphorsulfonyl oxaziridine). Each isomer gives exclusive access to one of the two possible enantiomers. This modification is applied in the Holton Taxol total synthesis. : In the enolate oxidation of the cyclopentaenone below〔''An Electrochemical Approach to the Guanacastepenes'' Chambers C.

The use of the standard oxaziridine did not result in an acyloin. : == Reactions of acyloins == * Reduction of acyloins give diols. * Oxidation of acyloins give diones. * Some acyloins rearrange with positions swapped under the influence of base in the Lobry–de Bruyn–van Ekenstein transformation * A similar reaction is the so-called Voight amination where an acyloin reacts with a primary amine and phosphorus pentoxide to an alpha-keto amine:〔''Amines: Synthesis, Properties and Applications'' Stephen A.
