|
physics properties |
* High boiling point due to hydrogen bonding
* Soluble in water * C=O at 1700 cm-1 * -OH at 3100 cm-1 |
|
|
COOH --> alcohol |
1. reduction 2. LiAlH4
|
|
|
decarboxylation |
1. occurs for beta-keto acids 2. |
|
|
esterification |
occurs under acidic conditions |
|
|
COOH --> ester |
1. esterification 2. occurs under acidic conditions 3. R-OH |
|
|
halogenation of carboxylic acids |
occurs at alpha carbon (2 position) 1. convert to enolizable form (w/ PBr) 2. enolize 3. halogenation 4. revert back to carboxylic acid (or hydrolysis) |
|
|
COOH ---> acyl halide |
PBr3 |
|
|
chemical properties |
* dimerization occurs via H bonding
* acidity: pKa =5 (weak acid) * ex: vinegar = dilute acetic acid * substituents makes COOH stronger acid * more stable carboxylate * resonance: conj base stabilizes carboxylate ion |
