CH-420: Principles of Organic Chemistry CH-420: Principles of Organic Chemistry Dr. Krishna P. Bhabak Assistant Professor Department of Chemistry Indian Institute of Technology Guwahati Lead tetraacetate, LTA, [Pb(OAc)4] -LTA (Criegee reagent) is a powerful oxidizing agent -It is very toxic, hygroscopic colorless crystals -However, it can decompose in air to produce Pb(OAc)2 that is brown in color. Generally stored with added Acetic acid -It must be used with precautions in a ventilated fume hood. Oxidation of alcohols -Alcohols are oxidized to aldehydes or ketones in the presence of pyridine -1,2-diols undergo oxidative cleavage to produce aldehydes or ketones -cis-diols react faster than the trans-diols -reaction goes via cyclic intermediates -very useful reagent for the glycols that have low solubility in aqueous media -reactions are generally performed in organic solvents Lead tetraacetate, LTA, [Pb(OAc)4] The proposed mechanism of oxidation of cis- and trans-diols are shown to be different The saturated alcohols having δ- hydrogen atom undergoes cyclization to produce tetrahydrofuran ring in the presence of LTA. The reaction likely to proceed via radical pathway. Mechanism Lead tetraacetate, LTA, [Pb(OAc)4] Carboxylic acids undergo decarboxylation to produce alkenes 1,2-dicarboxylic acids undergo oxidative decarboxylation to form alkenes α-hydroxy carboxylic acids undergo oxidative decarboxylation to produce ketones γ-keto carboxylic acids undergo oxidation followed by deprotonation to produce α,β-unsaturated ketones Aluminium Alkoxide (Oppenauer Oxidation) -Aluminium triisopropoxide or aluminium tributoxide act as oxidizing agents for oxidation of alcohols -Secondary alcohols are oxidized to ketones in the presence of an excess amount of acetone -Inert solvent such as benzene, toluene or dioxane minimizes the side products -The β,γ-double bond generally migrates to α,β-position of the carbonyl group during oxidation. -Cyclohexanone acts as hydrogen acceptor here. Aluminium Alkoxide (Oppenauer Oxidation) Synthesis of Analgesic and Hormones Mechanism Proceeds via six-membered cyclic transition state Acetone acts as oxidizing agent and gets reduced to isopropyl alcohol Ruthenium-based Oxidants Tetrapropyl ammonium perruthenate (TRAP) [Ley-Griffith Oxidation] Mild oxidant for alcohols to carbonyl compounds Over-oxidizes primary alcohols to carboxylic acids in the presence of water Can be used in stoichiometric amount or catalytic amount with NMO as co-oxidant Reagent performs better in the presence of molecular sieves + - Pr4N RuO4 Has good tolerance of other functional groups such as alkenes, THP ethers, silyl ethers, lactones, epoxides etc Mechanism Ruthenium-based Oxidants Tetrapropyl ammonium perruthenate (TRAP) [Ley-Griffith Oxidation] Primary alcohols are over-oxidized to carboxylic acids in the presence of catalytic TRAP and co-oxidant NMO in the presence of water. Oxidation goes through intermediates A and B. Non-metal-based Oxidants Oxidation by Activated Dimethyl Sulfoxide (DMSO) -Mild oxidizing agents -Primary alcohols are oxidized to aldehydes and secondary alcohols to ketones -No overoxidation -less toxic to environment than many metal-based oxidants General mechanism Development of DMSO-based oxidation process + E = SOCl2, Cl2, (COCl)2, TsCl, Ac2O, CF3SO3H etc Kornblum Oxidation • This was discovered in 1959 o • A primary tosylate is heated at 150 C to cause SN2 displacement by the oxygen of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) in the presence of NaHCO3. • The reaction was shown to work with alkyl bromides also. • The reaction time is only few minutes. Disadvantages: High reaction temperature Barton Modification Modification was done in 1964 by Barton and co-workers • Sulfenate salts were generated by treating alkyl chloroformates with DMSO after loss of CO2 • The chloroformates can be prepared by treating alcohols with phosgene. • The final oxidized product is generated upon the addition of trimethylamine. • This procedure was an improvement of the harsh conditions of the Kornblum procedure. Mechanism -CO2 Moffatt-Pfitzner Oxidation Was discovered by J. Moffatt and his student K. Pfitzner in 1963 DMSO is activated by DCC in the presence of phosphoric acid to generate the intermediate 2 Intermediate 2 is again protonated to facilitate addition of the alcohol oxygen on the sulfur atom Stable dicyclohexyl urea 4 is formed along with sulfenate salt 3 Sulfenate salt 3 produces the carbonyl compound in the presence of dihydrogen phosphate anion Although H3PO4 and pyridinium trifluoroacetate can catalyze the reaction, H2SO4, HCl or CF3CO2H do not work It is critical that the conjugate base of the acid is basic enough to effect the last step of the reaction Mechanism J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1963, 85, 3027–3028 Parikh-Doering Oxidation Was discovered in 1967 This oxidation utilizes the pyridine sulfur trioxide complex as the activator of DMSO 2- Alcohols attack the electrophilic S-center with the displacement of SO4 group Finally, the sulfenate salt is decomposed in the presence of NEt3 to produce an aldehyde or ketone Mechanism Corey-Kim Oxidation Was discovered in 1972 by E. J. Corey and C. U. Kim Here Dimethyl sulfide (DMS) is activated by N-chlorosuccinimide to generate the activated sulfenium species The alcohol attacks at the S-center with the removal of succinimidyl group Finally, the sulfenate intermediate decomposes in the presence of NEt3 forming aldehyde/ketone as the oxidizing species. Limitations The reaction needs a carefully controlled condition and low temperature (-25 oC) in non-polar solvents Highly reactive alcohols (benzyl/allyl) generate the corresponding halides In polar solvents, thioether product is also formed J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1972, 94, 7586–7587 Swern Oxidation The reaction is named after Daniel Swern, American Chemist In 1976, early Swern oxidation was reported that employed trifluoroacetic anhydride at -50 oC to activate DMSO The sulfenate intermediate was formed upon the attack of alcohol at S-center with the replacement of - CF3COO group. The ketone/aldehyde is produced in the usual fashion in the presence of triethylamine Swern Oxidation In 1978, a more convenient Swern oxidation was reported Here, DMSO was activated with Oxalyl chloride to generate Chloro(dimethyl)sulfonium chloride intermediate at low temperature (-78 oC) Addition of the primary or secondary alcohol followed by deprotonation of sulfenate salt with triethylamine leads to the desired aldehyde or ketone, respectively.

  • The Decomposition Kinetics of Peracetic Acid and Hydrogen Peroxide in Municipal Wastewaters
    Disinfection Forum No 10, October 2015 The Decomposition Kinetics of Peracetic Acid and Hydrogen Peroxide in Municipal Wastewaters INTRODUCTION Efficient control of microbial populations in municipal wastewater using peracetic acid (PAA) requires an understanding of the PAA decomposition kinetics. This knowledge is critical to ensure the proper dosing of PAA needed to achieve an adequate concentration within the contact time of the disinfection chamber. In addition, the impact of PAA on the environment, post-discharge into the receiving water body, also is dependent upon the longevity of the PAA in the environment, before decomposing to acetic acid, oxygen and water. As a result, the decomposition kinetics of PAA may have a significant impact on aquatic and environmental toxicity. PAA is not manufactured as a pure compound. The solution exists as an equilibrium mixture of PAA, hydrogen peroxide, acetic acid, and water: ↔ + + Acetic Acid Hydrogen Peroxide Peracetic Acid Water PeroxyChem’s VigorOx® WWT II Wastewater Disinfection Technology contains 15% peracetic acid by weight and 23% hydrogen peroxide as delivered. Although hydrogen peroxide is present in the formulation, peracetic acid is considered to be the active component for disinfection1 in wastewater. There have been several published studies investigating the decomposition kinetics of PAA in different water matrices, including municipal wastewater2-7. Yuan7 states that PAA may be consumed in the following three competitive reactions: 1. Spontaneous decomposition 2 CH3CO3H à 2 CH3CO2H + O2 Eq (1) 2. Hydrolysis CH3CO3H + H2O à CH3CO2H + H2O2 Eq (2) 3. Transition metal catalyzed decomposition + CH3CO3H + M à CH3CO2H + O2 + other products Eq (3) At neutral pH’s, both peracetic acid and hydrogen peroxide can be rapidly consumed by these reactions7 (hydrogen peroxide will decompose to water and oxygen via 2H2O2 à 2H2O + O2).

  • Oxidation of Secondary Alcohols to Ketones
    Oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones The oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones is an important oxidation reaction in organic chemistry. Where a secondary alcohol is oxidised, it is converted to a ketone. The hydrogen from the hydroxyl group is lost along with the hydrogen bonded to the second carbon. The remaining oxygen then forms double bonds with the carbon. This leaves a ketone, as R1–COR2. Ketones cannot normally be oxidised any further because this would involve breaking a C–C bond, which requires too much energy.[1] The reaction can occur using a variety of oxidants. Contents Potassium dichromate PCC (Pyridinium chlorochromate) Dess–Martin oxidation Swern oxidation Oppenauer oxidation Fétizon oxidation See also References Potassium dichromate A secondary alcohol can be oxidised into a ketone using acidified potassium dichromate and heating under 2− 3+ reflux. The orange-red dichromate ion, Cr2O7 , is reduced to the green Cr ion. This reaction was once used in an alcohol breath test. PCC (Pyridinium chlorochromate) PCC, when used in an organic solvent, can be used to oxidise a secondary alcohol into a ketone. It has the advantage of doing so selectively without the tendency to over-oxidise. Dess–Martin oxidation The Dess–Martin periodinane is a mild oxidant for the conversion of alcohols to aldehydes or ketones.[2] The reaction is performed under standard conditions, at room temperature, most often in dichloromethane. The reaction takes between half an hour and two hours to complete. The product is then separated from the spent periodinane.[3] Swern oxidation Swern oxidation oxidises secondary alcohols into ketones using oxalyl chloride and dimethylsulfoxide.

  • Alcohol Oxidation
    Alcohol oxidation Alcohol oxidation is an important organic reaction. Primary alcohols (R-CH2-OH) can be oxidized either Mechanism of oxidation of primary alcohols to carboxylic acids via aldehydes and The indirect oxidation of aldehyde hydrates primary alcohols to carboxylic acids normally proceeds via the corresponding aldehyde, which is transformed via an aldehyde hydrate (R- CH(OH)2) by reaction with water. The oxidation of a primary alcohol at the aldehyde level is possible by performing the reaction in absence of water, so that no aldehyde hydrate can be formed. Contents Oxidation to aldehydes Oxidation to ketones Oxidation to carboxylic acids Diol oxidation References Oxidation to aldehydes Oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes is partial oxidation; aldehydes are further oxidized to carboxylic acids. Conditions required for making aldehydes are heat and distillation. In aldehyde formation, the temperature of the reaction should be kept above the boiling point of the aldehyde and below the boiling point of the alcohol. Reagents useful for the transformation of primary alcohols to aldehydes are normally also suitable for the oxidation of secondary alcohols to ketones. These include: Oxidation of alcohols to aldehydes and ketones Chromium-based reagents, such as Collins reagent (CrO3·Py2), PDC or PCC. Sulfonium species known as "activated DMSO" which can result from reaction of DMSO with electrophiles, such as oxalyl chloride (Swern oxidation), a carbodiimide (Pfitzner-Moffatt oxidation) or the complex SO3·Py (Parikh-Doering oxidation). Hypervalent iodine compounds, such as Dess-Martin periodinane or 2-Iodoxybenzoic acid. Catalytic TPAP in presence of excess of NMO (Ley oxidation). Catalytic TEMPO in presence of excess bleach (NaOCl) (Oxoammonium-catalyzed oxidation).

  • 20 More About Oxidation–Reduction Reactions
    More About 20 Oxidation–Reduction Reactions OOC n important group of organic reactions consists of those that O A involve the transfer of electrons C from one molecule to another. Organic chemists H OH use these reactions—called oxidation–reduction reactions or redox reactions—to synthesize a large O variety of compounds. Redox reactions are also important C in biological systems because many of these reactions produce HH energy. You have seen a number of oxidation and reduction reactions in other chapters, but discussing them as a group will give you the opportunity to CH3OH compare them. In an oxidation–reduction reaction, one compound loses electrons and one com- pound gains electrons. The compound that loses electrons is oxidized, and the one that gains electrons is reduced. One way to remember the difference between oxidation and reduction is with the phrase “LEO the lion says GER”: Loss of Electrons is Oxi- dation; Gain of Electrons is Reduction. The following is an example of an oxidation–reduction reaction involving inorganic reagents: Cu+ + Fe3+ ¡ Cu2+ + Fe2+ In this reaction,Cu+ loses an electron, so Cu+ is oxidized. Fe3+ gains an electron, so Fe3+ is reduced. The reaction demonstrates two important points about oxidation– reduction reactions. First, oxidation is always coupled with reduction. In other words, a compound cannot gain electrons (be reduced) unless another compound in the reaction simultaneously loses electrons (is oxidized). Second, the compound that is oxidized (Cu+) is called the reducing agent because it loses the electrons that are used to reduce the other compound (Fe3+). Similarly, the compound that is reduced (Fe3+) is called the oxidizing agent because it gains the electrons given up by the other compound (Cu+) when it is oxidized.
