  1. Derivatives of Carboxylic Acids Nucleophilic Acyl Substitution

  2. Derivatives of Carboxylic Acids Made Directly from Acids

  3. Preparation of Acid Chlorides Directly from Acids

  4. Preparation of Acid Anhydrides Directly from Acids + H2O + H2O • Good for acetic and 5- and 6-membered ring anhydrides

  5. Preparation of Esters Directly from Acids + H2O

  6. Preparation of Amides Directly from Acids (not generally useful, however, due to high temperature needed)

  7. Overview of Reactions of Derivatives of Acids:

  8. All have a Common Mechanism! 2-step Acyl Substitution: 1. Addition to C=O (to create a tetrahedral C) 2. Elimination of the best L to reform the C=O (gem diol-like intermediate; unstable w/r to reformation of the carbonyl group & displacement of the best leaving group)

  9. Relative Reactivity Acid Chlorides > Acid Anhydrides > Thioesters > Esters > Acids > Amides (inversely related to basicity of leaving group)

  10. Reactions of Acid Chlorides w/ R2CuLi or 2 w/ LiAlH(t-OBu)3 w/ LiAlH4

  11. Application: Synthesis of Nylon n

  12. Reactions of Anhydrides ( low T) w/ Na2Fe(CO)4 w/ LiAlH4

  13. Applications: Synthesis of Analgesics

  14. Reactions of Esters ( low T) w/ DIBAH; AlH(i-Bu)2 w/ LiAlH4

  15. Application: Synthesis of Polyethyleneterephthalate (PET)

  16. Review: Oxidation at Benzylic Position, Esterification

  17. Reactions of Amides (unreactive) ROH RNH2

  18. Reactions of Nitriles • The nitrile is an anhydride of an amide; the CN group is a polar group; nucleophiles add to the CN triple bond as they add to a carbonyl group.

  19. Thiol Esters (thioesters) • Intermediate in reactivity between anhydrides and esters...ideal for biological acylation reactions: stable to hydrolysis, yet reasonably reactive

  22. Explanation of Carbonyl Stretching Frequency The polarity of the C-Cl bond increases the positive charge on the carbon in the dipolar resonance form. This raises its energy, resulting in a resonance hybrid with little C-O (single) bond character. The result is mostly C=O (double) bond character and a high C=O bond stretching frequency.

  23. Explanation of Carbonyl Stretching Frequency... Amide resonance results in an additional resonance form. Two of the resonance forms have C-O single bond character. The result is a lower C=O bond stretching frequency.
