1. General mechanism in basic condition: Nucleophilic Addition (Class II) 2. General mechanism in acidic condition:
1. Carbon as the nucleophilic atom Basic condition Types of Nucleophile for Class II Carbonyl Groups pKa = 25 Acetylide ion pKa = 50 carboanion 2. Hydrogen as the nucleophilic atom Mostly basic condition hydride 3. Nitrogen as the nucleophilic atom Mostly acidic condition 1° and 2° amines 4. Oxygen as the nucleophilic atom Acidic condition 1° alcohols
pKaof alcohol. Oxygen as the Nucleophilic Atom pKa = 15-16 pKa = -2 1° and 2° Alcohols function as weak acids, weak bases or nucleophiles. 3° Alcohols function as weak acids or weak bases.
2° and 3° Alcohols are too hindered to react. General reaction with primary alcohols: Reactions of Aldehydes and Ketones with Alcohols H+ 2 1° Alcohols Ketal or acetal General reaction with water: H+ Geminaldiol (gem-diol)
Example: H+ Reactions of Aldehydes and Ketoneswith Water Mechanism:
Examples: H+ Reactions of Aldehydes and Ketones with Alcohols 2 H+ 2 H+ 1
Mechanism: Reactions of Aldehydes and Ketones with Alcohols hemiacetal acetal
Synthesis using protecting group ? LiAlH4 or DIBAL will reduce the ketone as well. Application of Ketal or Acetal Ketal as the protecting group for ketone: • Ketals like ethers are relatively stable in basic condition.
? SOCl2 (PBr3 or PCl3) will convert carboxylic acids into acyl halides as well. More Examples on the Use of Protecting Groups Ester as the protecting group for carboxylic acid: • Ester will not react with SOCl2 (from compound 3 to compound 4).
Amines under acidic condition may turn into an EWG in the form of ammoniim ions. More Examples on the Use of Protecting Groups Amide as the protecting group for amine: • Amide in compound 3 will act as EGD..
