Whenever you have a carbocation intermediate, what should you think?
|
Always think:
1. RACEMIC PRODUCT 2. C+ rearrangement (if can make more stable, it will!) |
|
if the product is different than you originally thoguht it would be, what should you think?
|
carbocation rearrangement!
|

THIS BREAKS DOUBLE BONDS INTO KETONES.
|
|
Oxidation of a primary alcohol gives what?
|
aldehyde => carboxylic acid
|
|
Oxidaiton of a secondary alcohol gives what?
|
ketone
|
|
What are the conditions that all aromatic compounds have to satisfy?
|
1. cyclic => every atom in ring must have unhybridized p orbital.
2. flat and planar (no higher than sp2 hybrid) 3. Huckel's # of electrons (4n+2) |
|
(T/F) For aromatic compound, if lone pair contributes to resonance than it isn't hybridized
|
True; so if the lone pairs in nitrogen contribute to resonance, and its attached to three other atoms ==> it is sp2 hybridized (not sp3).
- You do count those lone pairs in the huckel number (max one pair though). |
|
When one of the double bonds on benzene attacked Br-Br, it forms a ______; but b/c this is a bad resonance form it will _______.
|
carbocation; elimination.
|
|
Electron donating groups are ring _______.
|
activators;
the ring will become more reactive; (You can draw out the resonance structures if you'd like to visualize) |
|
- Electron donating groups have lone pairs on ______ atom.
- Exception? |
alpha;
- exception: R groups are electron donating; they activate the ring. |
|
- Electron withdrawing group have lone pairs on ______ atoms.
- Exceptions? |
Beta;
- exception: halogens are ring deactivators b/c they are very electronegative |
|
Electron withdrawing group ____ the ring.
|
- deactivate the ring; make it less reactive.
- will direct towards met position |
|
WHat is the extend of H-bonding for aldehydes/ketones?
|
They can accept H's but can't donate H's.
|
|
(T/F) Aldehydes/ketones are more soluble than alkanes/enes in water.
|
True.
|
|
(T/F) BP/MP of aldehydes/ketones is less than alcohols.
|
True b/c alcohols can H-bond.
|
|
What should you always do when evaluating acidity?
|
DRAW THE CONJUGATE BASE AND DECIDE IF ITS STABLE.
|
|
If you see an OH bonded next to dbl bond, what should you immediate thing.
|
That its really a ketone/aldehyde... DO NOT THINK ALCOHOL and DOUBLE BOND B/C THE ALDEHYDE/KETON IS SO MUCH MORE REACTIVE!!!
|
|
WHEN SEE AN AN ALCOHOL BONDED NEXT TO A DOUBLE BOND, what kind reaction are you going to get?
|
- You should first thing: it's a aldehyde/ketone b/c those are more reactive.
- Therefore you should get nucleophilic addition not elimination/substitution!!! |
