HOAÙ HOÏC HÖÕU CÔ CHÖÔNG 12 ACID CARBOXYLIC Organic Chemistry
The Importance of Carboxylic Acids (RCO2H) • Starting materials for acyl derivatives (esters, amides, and acid chlorides) • Abundant in nature from oxidation of aldehydes and alcohols in metabolism • Acetic acid, CH3CO2H, - vinegar • Butanoic acid, CH3CH2CH2CO2H (rancid butter) • Long-chain aliphatic acids from the breakdown of fats
Alternative Names • Compounds with CO2H bonded to a ring are named using the suffix -carboxylic acid • The CO2H carbon is not itself numbered in this system • Use common names for formic acid (HCOOH) and acetic acid (CH3COOH) – see Table 20.1
=> Acid Derivatives • All can be converted to the carboxylic acid by acidic or basic hydrolysis. • Esters and amides common in nature.
Nomenclature of 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
Nomenclature of Acyl Halides - Examples acetyl chloride 3-butenoyl chloride p-fluorobenzoyl bromide
Nomenclature of 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
Nomenclature of Acid Anhydrides - Examples acetic anhydride benzoic anhydride benzoic heptanoic anhydride
Nomenclature of Acid 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
Nomenclature of Acid Esters - Examples ethyl acetate methyl propanoate 2-chloroethyl benzoate
benzyl formate benzyl methanoate => Naming Esters • Esters are named as alkyl carboxylates. • Alkyl from the alcohol, carboxylate from the carboxylic acid precursor. isobutyl acetate 2-methylpropyl ethanoate
4-hydroxy-2-methylpentanoic acid lactone -methyl--valerolactone => Cyclic Esters • Reaction of -OH and -COOH on same molecule produces a cyclic ester, lactone. • To name, add word lactone to the IUPAC acid name or replace the -ic acid of common name with -olactone.
Nomenclature of Primary Amides • identify the corresponding carboxylic acid • replace the -ic acid or -oic acid ending by -amide
Nomenclature of Primary Amides - Examples acetamide 3-methylbutanamide benzamide
N-ethyl-N,2-dimethylpropanamide N-ethyl-N-methylisobutyramide => Naming Amides • For 1 amide, drop -ic or -oic acid from the carboxylic acid name, add -amide. • For 2 and 3 amides, the alkyl groups bonded to nitrogen are named with N- to indicate their position.
Nomenclature of Secondary & Tertiary Amides • 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
Nomenclature of Secondary & Tertiary Amides N-methylacetamide N,N-diethylbenzamide N-isopropyl-N-methylbutanamide
4-aminopentanoic acid lactam -valerolactam => Cyclic Amides • Reaction of -NH2 and -COOH on same molecule produces a cyclic amide, lactam. • To name, add word lactam to the IUPAC acid name or replace the -ic acid of common name with -olactam.
ethyl o-cyanobenzoate => Multifunctional Compounds • The functional group with the highest priority determines the parent name. • Acid > ester > amide > nitrile > aldehyde > ketone > alcohol > amine > alkene > alkyne.
IR Spectroscopy => =>
=> Interconversion ofAcid Derivatives • Nucleophile adds to the carbonyl to form a tetrahedral intermediate. • Leaving group leaves and C=O regenerates.
Reactivity Reactivity decreases as leaving group becomes more basic. =>
Interconversion of Derivatives More reactive derivatives can be converted to less reactive derivatives. =>
=> Hydrolysis of Nitriles • Under mild conditions, nitriles hydrolyze to an amide. • Heating with aqueous acid or base will hydrolyze a nitrile to an acid.
=> Hydrolysis of Acid Chlorides and Anhydrides • Hydrolysis occurs quickly, even in moist air with no acid or base catalyst. • Reagents must be protected from moisture.
=> Acid Hydrolysis of Esters • Reverse of Fischer esterification. • Reaches equilibrium. • Use a large excess of water.
Saponification • Base-catalyzed hydrolysis of ester. • “Saponification” means “soap-making.” • Soaps are made by heating NaOH with a fat (triester of glycerol) to produce the sodium salt of a fatty acid - a soap. • One example of a soap is sodium stearate, Na+ -OOC(CH2)16CH3. =>
O O O Manufacture of Soap • Basic hydrolysis of the glyceryl triesters (from fats and oils) gives salts of long-chain carboxylic acids. • These salts are soaps. K2CO3, H2O, heat CH3(CH2)xCOK CH3(CH2)yCOK CH3(CH2)zCOK
•• •• O O •• •• – – •• •• •• •• + RCO + R' OH R'OH RCO •• •• •• •• •• •• Is the Mechanism BAL2 or BAC2? • One possibility is an SN2 attack by hydroxide on the alkyl group of the ester. Carboxylate is the leaving group. • This mechaism would be designated BAL2: • B (Basic conditions) • AL (Carbonyl-OAlkyl bond breaking in rate-determining step) • 2 (Reaction is second order - rate = k[ester][hydroxide]

O + CH3CH2COCH2CH3 NaOH O + CH3CH2CONa CH3CH2OH 18O Labeling gives the answer • 18O retained in alcohol, not carboxylate; therefore nucleophilic acyl substitution.

O COCH2CH3 O COCH2CH3 18O Labeling Studies + H2O • Ethyl benzoate, labeled with 18O at the carbonyl oxygen, was subjected to hydrolysis in base. • Ethyl benzoate, recovered before the reaction had gone to completion, had lost its 18O label. • This observation is consistent with a tetrahedral intermediate.
