What is meant by the following term? Give an example of the reaction in the following case.
Cyanohydrin

उत्तर
Aldehydes and ketones react with hydrogen cyanide (HCN) to yield cyanohydrins. This reaction occurs very slowly with pure HCN. Therefore, it is catalysed by a base and the generated cyanide ion (CN−) being a stronger nucleophile readily adds to carbonyl compounds to yield corresponding cyanohydrin.
\[\ce{HCN + O\overset{-}{H} <=> {_{\bullet}^{\bullet}}\overset{-}{C}N + H2O}\]
