Radical reactions
|
abstract a hydrogen.
3>2>1 |
|
Hindered Bases
|
K Ot Bu
(potassium tertbutoxide) Only performs elimination |
|
strong bases
|
Na OEt
1*= SN2 too strong of base for 2 and 3. will pull off hyrdrogens before it gets to compound. |
|
weak base
|
RCOO(-), CN(-)
SN2 for 1 and 2. SN1 and E1 for 3. |
|
alkoxy derivatives
|
use an oxygen bridge to substituent. "Ch3-O-" methoxy
|
|
cyclic ethers
|
"oxa" indicates presence
oxacyclohexane. |
|
diol preperation
|
OsO4 (cis addition of 2 oh groups)
RCOOOH (peroxyacid - trans) internal double bond |
|
acid catalyzed hydration
|
hydrates markovnikov.
be aware of rearrangements. forms alcohol. |
|
Alcohol properties
|
weak acids. react with alkali metals and strong bases (NaOEt)
use HBr to make alkyl hallides |
|
Ethers
|
Williamson synthesis
(R-Alcohol + NaH --> + R-Br = ROR) Reacts with alkyl hallides (cold= ROH RX, hot=RX, RX) |
|
epoxides
|
cyclic ethers
prepaired with MMPP on double bonds. adding acid produces a diol. |
|
crown ethers
|
phase transfer catalysts
18 crown 6 - K+ |
|
oxidation
|
1 alcohol --PCC---> ketone
1 alcohol ---KMnO4---> carboxylic acid 2 alcohol---HCrO4---> ketone 3* hard to oxidize |
|
reduction
|
anything---Li Al H4--->alcohol
aldehyde/ketone--NaBH4-->alcohol |
|
Li & grignard
|
prganometallic with partial charge
made in ether. makes R group powerful base/nucleophile. careful with acidic Hs. |
|
Li & grignard & all alcohols
|
R-Li+ formaldehyde= R-primary alcohol
R-Li+aldehyde=R-secondary alcohol R-Li+ketone=r-tertiary alcohol R-Li+ester=ketone |
|
sodium alkydes
|
R-C(tripple)C-Na+ also react the same as Li & grignard
|
|
R2-Cu-Li
|
R2 groups are the same. coupling agent. R2CuLi+ R-X = R-R
|
|
allylic bromination
|
NBS
|
|
alkadienes
|
have 2 double bonds. if double-single-double- conjugated. resonating allyl cation will produce 2 products
|
|
kinetic vs thermodynamic control
|
Mild conditions -kinetic- (0*c) (1,2 product)
rigirous - thermodynamic(40*c) (1,4 product) |
