  3. O RC X Acyl Halides • name the acyl group and add the word chloride, fluoride, bromide, or iodide as appropriate • acyl chlorides are, by far, the most frequently encountered of the acyl halides

  4. O CH3CCl O H2C CHCH2CCl O F CBr Acyl Halides acetyl chloride 3-butenoyl chloride p-fluorobenzoyl bromide

  5. O O RCOCR' Acid Anhydrides • when both acyl groups are the same, name the acid and add the word anhydride • when the groups are different, list the names of the corresponding acids in alphabetical order and add the word anhydride

  7. O RCOR' Esters • name as alkyl alkanoates • cite the alkyl group attached to oxygen first (R') • name the acyl group second; substitute the suffix-ate for the -ic ending of the corresponding acid

  8. O CH3COCH2CH3 O CH3CH2COCH3 O COCH2CH2Cl Esters ethyl acetate methyl propanoate 2-chloroethyl benzoate

  9. O RCNH2 Amides having an NH2 group • identify the corresponding carboxylic acid • replace the -ic acid or -oic acid ending by -amide.

  11. O O RCNHR' RCNR'2 Amides having substituents on N • name the amide as before • precede the name of the amide with the name of the appropriate group or groups • precede the names of the groups by the letter N- (standing for nitrogen and used as a locant) and

  13. RC N Nitriles • add the suffix -nitrile to the name of the parent hydrocarbon chain (including the triply bonded carbon of CN) • or: replace the -ic acid or -oic acid name of the corresponding carboxylic acid by -onitrile • or: name as an alkyl cyanide (functional class name)

  14. CH3C N C6H5C N CH3CHCH3 C N Nitriles ethanenitrileor: acetonitrileor: methyl cyanide benzonitrile 2-methylpropanenitrileor: isopropyl cyanide

  15. 20.2Structure of Carboxylic Acid Derivatives

  16. The key to this chapter is the next slide.It lists the various carboxylic acids in order of decreasing reactivity toward their fundamental reaction type (nucleophilic acyl substitution).The other way to read the list is in order of increasing stabilization of the carbonyl group.

  18. – •• •• •• O O O •• •• •• •• •• + •• •• RC X RC X RC X + Electron Delocalization and the Carbonyl Group • The main structural feature that distinguishes acyl chlorides, anhydrides, thioesters, esters, and amides is the interaction of the substituent with the carbonyl group. It can be represented in resonance terms as:

  19. •• •• •• O O O •• •• •• •• •• + •• •• RC X RC X RC X + Electron Delocalization and the Carbonyl Group • The extent to which the lone pair on X can be delocalized into C=O depends on: • 1) the electronegativity of X • 2) how well the lone pair orbital of X interacts with the  orbital of C=O –

  20. Orbital overlaps in carboxylic acid derivatives • orbital of carbonyl group

  21. Orbital overlaps in carboxylic acid derivatives • lone pair orbitalof substituent

  22. Orbital overlaps in carboxylic acid derivatives • electron pair of substituent delocalized into carbonyl orbital

  25. •• •• •• •• O O O O •• •• •• •• •• + •• C C C C O O R R R R •• •• Acid Anhydrides • lone pair donation from oxygen stabilizes thecarbonyl group of an acid anhydride • the other carbonyl group is stabilized in ananalogous manner by the lone pair

  26. O RCCl O O RCOCR' least stabilized C=O most stabilized C=O

  27. •• •• O O •• •• •• + •• C C SR' SR' R R •• •• Thioesters • Sulfur (like chlorine) is a third-row element.Electron donation to C=O from third-row elementsis not very effective.Resonance stabilization of C=O in thioesters isnot significant.

  29. •• •• O O •• •• •• + •• C C OR' OR' R R •• •• Esters • lone pair donation from oxygen stabilizes thecarbonyl group of an ester • stabilization greater than comparable stabilizationof an anhydride or thioester

  31. •• •• O O •• •• •• + •• C C NR'2 NR'2 R R Amides • lone pair donation from nitrogen stabilizes thecarbonyl group of an amide • N is less electronegative than O; therefore, amides are stabilized more than esters and anhydrides

  32. •• •• O O •• •• •• + •• C C NR'2 NR'2 R R Amides • amide resonance imparts significant double-bondcharacter to C—N bond • activation energy for rotation about C—N bondis 75-85 kJ/mol • C—N bond distance is 135 pm in amides versusnormal single-bond distance of 147 pm in amines
