Outline Aldol • Carbonyl Condensation • Micheal Reaction Claisen
1. Carbonyl Condensation • Carbonyl compounds are both the electrophile and nucleophile in carbonyl condensation reactions
Aldol Condensation • Acetaldehyde reacts in basic solution (NaOEt, NaOH) with another molecule of acetaldehyde • The b-hydroxyaldehydeproduct is aldol (aldehyde + alcohol) • This is a general reaction of aldehydes andketones
Mechanism of Aldol Reactions • Aldol reactions, like all carbonyl condensations, occur by nucleophilic addition of the enolate ion of the donor molecule to the carbonyl group of the acceptor molecule • The addition intermediate is protonated to give an alcohol product
Predicting Aldol Products The product will have an alcohol and a carbonyl in a 1,3 relationship (a beta-hydroxy carbonyl)
1. Claisen Condensation • Condensation of Two Ester Molecules. • The product of a Claisen condensation is a β-keto ester. • In a Claisen condensation, one molecule of carbonyl compound is the nucleophile and second molecule is electrophile. • The new C-C bond connect the α-carbon of one molecule and the carbon that was formerly the carbonyl carbon of the other molecule
Mechanism of the ClaisenCondensation • Similar to aldol condensation: nucleophilicacyl substitution of an ester enolate ion on the carbonyl group of a second ester molecule • If the starting ester has more than one acidic a hydrogen, the product -keto ester has a doubly activated proton that can be abstracted by base • Requires a full equivalent of base rather than a catalytic amount • The deprotonation drives the reaction to the product
Learning Check: Predict the product of Claisen condensation of ethyl propanoate
Solution: Predict the product of Claisen condensation of ethyl propanoate
Mixed Claisen Condensations • Successful when one of the two esters acts as the electrophilic acceptor in reactions with other ester anions to give mixed -keto esters
2.Conjugate Carbonyl Additions: The MichaelReaction • Enolates can add as nucleophiles to ,-unsaturated aldehydes and ketones to give the conjugate addition product
Mechanism of the Michael • Nucleophilic addition of a enolate ion donor to the carbon of an ,-unsaturated carbonyl acceptor

Solution: • Make the following using a Michael Reaction:
Learning Check: Which of the following statements explains why the following aldehyde will not undergo an aldol reaction with itself? • The benzene ring makes the carbonyl group unreactive towards aldol reactions. • A carbonyl group must be connected to two alkyl groups in order to undergo an aldol reaction. • The molecule does not possess any hydrogens α to the carbonyl group. • Electrophilic aromatic substitution competes favorably with the aldol reaction. • Nucleophilic acyl substitution competes favorably with the aldol reaction.
