pka of carboxylic acid around… b/c…
|
4.5 - res stab of conj base
|
|
carb acid boiling pt higher/lower than alcohol b/c…
|
higher b/c can form 2 H+ bonds
|
|
how to synthesize carb. Acid:
|
oxidize primary alcohol (also with KMnO4), hydrolysis of nitrile, Grignard + CO2
|
|
heating of B-keto carboxylic acid results in____
|
decarboxylation
|
|
how do you synthesize ald from carbox acid?
|
can't! no direct route!
|
|
dif b/w hemiketal and hemiacetal
|
ketal = derived from ketone
|
|
how form ketal?
|
make hemiketal with 1 alcohol, acidify to lose an H20 (loses chirality) + add another alcohol
|
|
aldol condensation occurs between and results in... proceeds by...
|
between 2 ketones, results in a,b unsaturated aldehyde and water: make enolate (taut to enol, extract an H, make neg central C so forces x2 bond to attack another center) or by extract α-hydrogen, attack carbonyl --> acid workup --> h20+ and use base to elim water and make x2 bond
|
|
Claisen Condensation
|
like aldol condensation exept avail LG (kick off alcohol HOR) so retain both carbonyl O's (no dehydration)
|
|
how do you make an ylide?
|
CP + CH3Br --> C+PCH3 + Br- --> phosphonium salt --> deprot CH3 --> CH2- so you have a CP+ and CH2- in same molec
|
|
basic mechanism of Wittig rxn
|
replace carbonyl O with alkyl group via ylide
|
|
Zaitsev and Hoffman products
|
more vs less sub x2 bond (scoff at the hof b/c there's weaker x2 bond)
|
|
unlike alcohols, ethers cannot ______ and so they have a _____ bp
|
hydrogen bond, lower (comprable to alkanes)
|
|
antiaromatic compound is___
|
cyclic, condjugated, and has 4n π e-
|
|
sulfonation of aromatic
|
aromatic + SO3/H2SO4 --> add HSO3
|
|
nitration of aromatic
|
aromatic + H2SO4/HNO3 --> add NO2
|
|
what's the difference between a nucleophilic and electrophilic rxn?
|
nuc reacting with subst or electro reacting with substrate
|
|
between ortho and para, what's the ratio of addition at each spot?
|
66% ortho, 33% para (b/c 2 o spots vs 1 p spot) - no steric hindrance b/c planar
