  1. Organic Reactions Substitution Elimination Addition Esterification

  2. Organic Reactions • So far in this unit we have discussed hydrocarbons and their isomers • We have also learned about organic compounds with different functional groups • Throughout this we have learned naming rules for each • Now we are going to focus on several types of organic reactions

  3. Types of Organic Reactions • There are many types of organic reactions • We are only going to focus on a few. • Substitution • Elimination • Addition • Esterification

  4. Substitution • Any reaction in which one atom is replaced by another • Used to place a halogen onto an alkane • The products are always a halocarbon and the acid of the halogen • Reaction requires ultraviolet light to initiate the reaction • This provides the energy needed to form the excited state

  5. Substitution - Example ethane + chlorine  chloroethane + hydrochloric acid The Cl atom will replace a H atom resulting in an alkyl halide and the acid of the halogen (hydrochloric acid)

  6. Substitution • You can also have an alcohol react with a halogen resulting in an alkyl halide and water Ethanol + hydrochloric acid  chloroethane + water

  7. Elimination • Any reaction in which atoms are eliminated from another molecule • Done in three ways: • Elimination of H2 • Elimination of HX • Elimination of H2O

  8. Loss of H2 • Called dehydrogenation • Occurs in the presence of a base (eg. NaOH) and heat ethane  ethene + hydrogen

  9. Loss of HX • Alkyl halides undergo elimination reaction • This is known as dehydrohalogenation • Occurs in the presence of a base Base extracts H+and X- will leave; resulting in double bond formation

  10. Loss of H2O • Alcohol can undergo elimination via the loss of water • Known as dehydration • Acid protonates the OH group, water leaves and C+ remains behind • An adjacent H+ leaves next leaving electron pair to form double bond

  11. Addition • Takes place with unsaturated compounds which are usually more reactive than saturated compounds • Takes place with double and triple bonds • Two atoms are added across the electron rich bond • Four types of addition: • Addition of X2 (halogen) • Addition of H2 • Addition of H2O • Addition of HX (hydrogen halide)

  12. Addition of Halogen • Normally occurs in dissolved solvents such as CCl4 • Alkenes form dihaloalkanes • Alkynes produce dihaloalkenes or tetrahaloalkanes ethene + chlorine  1,2-dichloroethane

  13. Addition of Hydrogen • Catalysts used such as Pt, Pd or Ni • Known as hydrogenation • Alkene becomes alkane • Alkyne becomes alkene or alkane ethene + hydrogen  ethane

  14. ethyne + hydrogen  ethene ethyne + (2 mol) hydrogen  ethane

  15. Addition of Water • Occurs in the presence of an acid • Know as hydration • Alkene becomes alcohol • Alkyne produces ketone or aldehyde ethene + water  ethanol

  16. Addition of Hydrogen Halide • HX = HCl or HBr or HI (NOT HF) • Alkene becomes alkyl halide • Alkynes form monohalo alkenes or dihalo alkanes (with halogen on the same C) • Rule for adding H and X • The halogen (X) will always add to the more substituted carbon atom – the carbon that is bonded to the most carbon atoms

  17. 1-propene + hydrobromic acid  2-bromopropane Step1: 1-propyne + hydrobromic acid  2-bromo-1-propene Step 2: 2-bromo-1-propene+ hydrobromic acid  2,2-dibromopropane

  18. Esterification • Alcohol + organic acid  water + ester • Used to make perfumes, scents and flavours • Combination reaction which involves dehydration • Alcohol becomes the alkyl group and the acid becomes -oate

  19. propanol + ethanoic acid  propylethanoate + water
