Heterocyclic Chemistry By Dr. Mohamed Abd Ellatif Zein Assistant Professor Chemistry Department Faculty of Science Heterocyclic Chemistry Heterocyclic Chemistry N Five-membered Heterocycles S O Pyrrole, Furan and Thiophene 1-To identify types of five membered heterocyclic compounds 2- To know sources of five membered heterocyclic 3-To know syntheses of five membered heterocyclic compounds compounds 4-To understand chemical reactions of five membered heterocyclic compounds Hetero-Monocyclic Compounds A. Five-membered Rings with one Heteroatom The main reason for the study of pyrrole came from the work on the structure of haem; the blood respiratory pigment, and the chlorophyll; the green photosynthetic pigment of plants. Thiophene and its derivatives occurs in petroleum. Furan occurs widely in secondary plant metabolites, especially in terpenoids. Unsubstituted pyrrole, furan, and thiophene are usually obtained from petroleum. X = NH Pyrrole = O Furan N S O X H Thiophene Furan = S Thiophene Pyrrole Hetero-Monocyclic Compounds A. Five-membered Rings with one Heteroatom Pyrrole, furan and thiophene are colorless liquids of boiling points 126o, 32o, and 84o respectively. Pyrrole has a relatively high boiling point as compared to furan and thiophene, this is due to the presence of intermolecular hydrogen bonding in pyrrole. N N N N N H H H H H Hetero-Monocyclic Compounds A. Five-membered Rings with one Heteroatom Structure and Aromaticity Pyrrole furan and thiophene are aromatic because: 1) they fulfill the criteria for aromaticity, the extent of delocalization of the nonbonding electron pair is decisive for the aromaticity, thus the grading of aromaticity is in the order of: Furan < Pyrrole < Thiophene < Benzene this order is consistent with the order of electronegativity values for oxygen (3.44), The order of aromaticity nitrogen (3.04) and thiophene (2.56). Benzene > Thiophene > Pyrrole > Furan Hetero-Monocyclic Compounds A. Five-membered Rings with one Heteroatom Structure and Aromaticity 2) They tend to react by electrophilic substitution due appearance of –ve charge on carbon atoms due to delocalization as shown in the following resonance structures O O O O O S S S S S N N N N N H H H H H Hetero-Monocyclic Compounds A. Five-membered Rings with one Heteroatom Structure and Aromaticity 3- Electrons not available for protonation—hence not basic 4- 6 electrons over 5 ring atoms ….. Electron rich… so more reactive than benzene towards electrophilic substitution. The order of reactivity is: Pyrrole > Furan > Thiophene > Benzene X = NH Pyrrole = O Furan X = S Thiophene Hetero-Monocyclic Compounds A.

Five-membered Rings with one Heteroatom 3) Its exceptional lack of basicity and strong acidity as a secondary amine compared to the aliphatic analog (pyrrolidine).
