α-halogenation of ketones
α-halogenation of ketones refers to the chemical reaction in which a halogen atom is added to the carbon atom adjacent to the carbonyl group (α-position) of a ketone molecule. This reaction typically involves the use of a halogenating agent and can produce α-halo ketones as products.
