Chapter 20: Carboxylic Acids and Nitriles CHAPTER 20 CARBOXYLIC ACIDS Based on McMurry’s Organic Chemistry, 6th edition Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii 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 Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th edition, (c) 2003 Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii 2 20.1 Naming Carboxylic Acids •Carboxylic Acids, RCO2H •If derived from open-chain alkanes, replace the terminal -e of the alkane name with -oic acid •The carboxyl carbon atom is C1 Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii edition, (c) 2003 3 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 Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th edition, (c) 2003 Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii 4 5 • Greek letters are used to designate the location of substituents in common names. • The carbon adjacent to the COOH is called the carbon, followed by the carbon, followed by the carbon, the carbon and so forth down the chain. • The last carbon in the chain is sometimes called the carbon. • The carbon in the common system is numbered C2 in the IUPAC system. 6 • Compounds containing two carboxy groups are called diacids. Diacids are named using the suffix –dioic acid. • Metal salts of carboxylate anions are formed from carboxylic acids in many reactions. To name the metal salt of a carboxylate anion, put three parts together: 7 Figure 19.2 Naming the metal salts of carboxylate anions 8 Nitriles, RCN Closely related to carboxylic acids named by adding -nitrile as a suffix to the alkane name, with the nitrile carbon numbered C1 Complex nitriles are named as derivatives of carboxylic acids.

Figure 19.3 Two molecules of acetic acid (CH3COOH) held together by two hydrogen bonds 13 Spectroscopic Properties: • Carboxylic acids have very characteristic IR and NMR absorptions. • In the IR: -The C=O group absorbs at ~ 1710 cm-1. -The O—H absorption occurs from 2500-3500 cm-1. • In the 1H NMR: -The O—H proton absorbs between 10-12 ppm. -The protons absorb between 2-2.5 ppm. • In the 13C NMR, the C=O appears at 170-210 ppm. 14 Figure 19.4 The IR spectrum of butanoic acid, CH3CH2CH2COOH 15 20.3 Dissociation of Carboxylic Acids •Carboxylic acids are proton donors toward weak and + strong bases, producing metal carboxylate salts, RCO2 M •Carboxylic acids with more than six carbons are only slightly soluble in water, but their conjugate base salts are water-soluble Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th 16 edition, (c) 2003 Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii Acidity Constant and pKa + •Carboxylic acids transfer a proton to water to give H3O + and carboxylate anions, RCO2 , but H3O is a much stronger acid -5 •The acidity constant, Ka,, is about 10 for a typical carboxylic acid (pKa ~ 5) Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii edition, (c) 2003 17 Acidity Compared to Alcohols •Carboxylic acids are better proton donors than are alcohols (The pKa of ethanol is ~16, compared to ~5 for acetic acid) •In an alkoxide ion, the negative charge is localized on oxygen while in a carboxylate ion the negative charge is delocalized over two equivalent oxygen atoms, giving resonance stabilization 18 Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th edition, (c) 2003Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii 20.4 Substituent Effects on Acidity •Electronegative substituents promote formation of the carboxylate ion Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th edition, (c) 2003 Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii 19 Substituent Effects •An electronegative group will drive the ionization equilibrium toward dissociation, increasing acidity •An electron-donating group destabilizes the carboxylate anion and decreases acidity Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th edition, (c) 2003 Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii 20 Examples of Inductive Effects on Acidity •Fluoroacetic, chloroacetic, bromoacetic, and iodoacetic acids are stronger acids than acetic acid •Multiple electronegative substituents have synergistic effects on acidity Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii edition, (c) 2003 21 20.5 Substituent Effects in Substituted Benzoic Acids Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii 22 edition, (c) 2003 Aromatic Substituent Effects •An electron-withdrawing group (-NO2) increases acidity by stabilizing the carboxylate anion, and an electron-donating (activating) group (OCH3) decreases acidity by destabilizing the carboxylate anion •We can use relative pKa’s as a calibration for effects on relative free energies of reactions with the same substituents Based on McMurry, Organic Chemistry, Chapter 20, 6th Dr.Mohanad Al-Hachamii edition, (c) 2003 23 20.6 Preparation of Carboxylic Acids 1- Oxidation of arenes Oxidation of a substituted alkylbenzene with KMnO4 or Na2Cr2O7 or H2Cr2O7 gives a substituted benzoic acid (see Section 16.10) 1° and 2° alkyl groups can be oxidized, but tertiary groups are not ( the alkylbenzene must contain at least one benzylic hydrogen atom.

Thus, a large variety of synthetically useful lactones and enol-esters can be accessed through the intra- or intermolecular versions of this process. In order to reduce the environmental impact of these reactions, considerable efforts have been devoted in recent years to the development of catalytic systems able to operate in aqueous media, which represent a real challenge taking into account the tendency of alkynes to undergo hydration in the presence of transition metals. Despite this, different Pd, Pt, Au, Cu and Ru catalysts capable of promoting the intra- and intermolecular addition of carboxylic acids to alkynes in a selective manner in aqueous environments have appeared in the literature. In this review article, an overview of this chemistry is provided. The synthesis of b-oxo esters by catalytic addition of carboxylic acids to terminal propargylic alcohols in water is also discussed. Keywords: aqueous catalysis; alkynes; carboxylic acids; alkynoic acids; hydrocarboxylation reactions; cycloisomerization reactions; enol esters; lactones; b-oxo esters 1.

Both diolefin compounds gave polymers in a 90% yield. The polymer obtained from I ,4-diisopropenylbenzene was soluble in chloroform, and the molecular weight of the polymer (Mw) was 40000. On the other hand, the polymer obtained from 1,4-divinylbenzene was partly soluble in conventional organic solvents, possibly due to a cross linkage formation by a pendant vinyl group. The model addition reaction of thiobenzoic acid to styrene gave a by-product ca. 8% being the I : 2 adduct with respect to thiobenzoic acid and styrene. Alkali hydrolysis of both polymers was investigated to confirm the cross linkage structures in the polymers.

  • Experiment 7 – Aldehydes, Ketones, and Carboxylic Acids
    Experiment 7 – Aldehydes, Ketones, and Carboxylic Acids Aldehydes and ketones are molecules that contain a carbonyl group, which is an oxygen atom with a double bond to a carbon atom. In an aldehyde, the carbonyl group is on the end of the molecule. In a ketone, the carbonyl group is somewhere in the middle of the molecule. Example structures of aldehydes and ketones are given below. O O O O H 2 C C CH C C C 3 H C C H H3C CH3 H3C C H3C H 3 H H2 2 An aldehyde An aldehyde A ketone A ketone Carboxylic acids contain the carboxyl functional group, shown below. O O O C C C CH3 OH H3C OH HO C H2 A carboxyl group A carboxylic acid A carboxylic acid Physical Properties Aldehydes and ketones are polar because they contain a carbonyl group (oxygen is very electronegative compared to carbon). Aldehydes and ketones can form hydrogen bonds with water, so small aldehydes and ketones are water-soluble. However, they cannot form hydrogen bonds to each other, so their boiling points are not very high. (Their boiling points are higher than the corresponding alkanes, but lower than the corresponding alcohols.) Carboxylic acids are polar and can form hydrogen bonds with water. Small carboxylic acids are therefore water-soluble. They can also form hydrogen bonds with each other, so they have relatively high boiling points. As a comparison, the following molecules have very similar molar masses, but different boiling points. The differences in the boiling points are thus due to differences in polarity and hydrogen-bonding ability.

  • New Catalytic Transformations of Carboxylic Acids*
    Pure Appl. Chem., Vol. 80, No. 8, pp. 1725–1733, 2008. doi:10.1351/pac200880081725 © 2008 IUPAC New catalytic transformations of carboxylic acids* Lukas J. Gooßen‡, Käthe Gooßen, Nuria Rodríguez, Mathieu Blanchot, Christophe Linder, and Bettina Zimmermann FB Chemie – Department of Organic Chemistry, Technical University Kaiserslautern, Erwin-Schrödinger-Str. Geb. 54, 67663 Kaiserslautern, Germany Abstract: A series of metal-catalyzed processes are presented, in which carboxylic acids act as sources of either carbon nucleophiles or electrophiles, depending on the catalyst em- ployed, the mode of activation, and the reaction conditions. A first reaction mode is the ad- dition of carboxylic acids or amides over C–C multiple bonds, giving rise to enol esters or enamides, respectively. The challenge here is to control both the regio- and stereoselectivity of these reactions by the choice of the catalyst system. Alternatively, carboxylic acids can ef- ficiently be decarboxylated using new Cu catalysts to give aryl-metal intermediates. Under protic conditions, these carbon nucleophiles give the corresponding arenes. If carboxylate salts are employed instead of the free acids, the aryl-metal species resulting from the catalytic decarboxylation can be utilized for the synthesis of biaryls in a novel cross-coupling reaction with aryl halides, thus replacing stoichiometric organometallic reagents. An activation with coupling reagents or simple conversion to esters allows the oxidative addition of carboxylic acids to transition-metal catalysts under formation of acyl-metal species, which can either be reduced to aldehydes, or coupled with nucleophiles. At elevated temperatures, such acyl- metal species decarbonylate, so that carboxylic acids become synthetic equivalents for aryl or alkyl halides, e.g., in Heck reactions.
