Preparation of Esters • Fischer esterification (Sections 15.8 and 19.14) • from acyl chlorides (Sections 15.8 and 20.4) • from carboxylic acid anhydrides (Sections 15.8and 20.6) • Baeyer-Villiger oxidation of ketones (Section 17.16)
CH3 CH3CHCH2CH3 OH CH3CHCH2CH3 Boiling Points boilingpoint • Esters have higher boiling points than alkanes because they are more polar. • Esters cannot form hydrogen bonds to other ester molecules, so have lower boiling points than alcohols. 28°C O 57°C CH3COCH3 99°C
CH3 CH3CHCH2CH3 OH CH3CHCH2CH3 Solubility in Water Solubility(g/100 g) • Esters can form hydrogen bonds to water, so low molecular weight esters have significant solubility in water. • Solubility decreases with increasing number of carbons. ~0 O 33 CH3COCH3 12.5
Reactions of Esters • with Grignard reagents (Section 14.10) • reduction with LiAlH4 (Section 15.3) • with ammonia and amines (Sections 20.12) • hydrolysis (Sections 20.10 and 20.11)
O O H+ + RCOR' H2O RCOH Acid-Catalyzed Ester Hydrolysis is the reverse of Fischer esterification • maximize conversion to ester by removing water • maximize ester hydrolysis by having large excess of water • equilibrium is closely balanced because carbonyl group ofester and of carboxylic acid are comparably stabilized + R'OH
O + H2O CHCOCH2CH3 Cl HCl, heat O + CH3CH2OH CHCOH Cl Example (80-82%)
Mechanism of Acid-CatalyzedEster Hydrolysis • Is the reverse of the mechanism for acid-catalyzed esterification. • Like the mechanism of esterification, it involves two stages: • 1) formation of tetrahedral intermediate (3 steps) • 2) dissociation of tetrahedral intermediate (3 steps)
O + RCOR' H2O OH OR' RC OH First stage: formation of tetrahedral intermediate • water adds to the carbonyl group of the ester • this stage is analogous to the acid-catalyzed addition of water to a ketone H+
O RCOH OH OR' RC OH Second stage: cleavage of tetrahedralintermediate + R'OH H+
