We will spend the first several weeks of the semester looking at a group of organic compounds which share a common structural element--the carbonyl group. 1.2: FUNCTIONAL GROUPS, HYBRIDIZATION, NAMING First, let's look at the various structural representations you were asked to develop for the molecules given at the end of the last lecture. Here they are: 1.3: ADDITIONS- ELECTROPHILIC AND NUCLEOPHILIC Last time we listed three reasons to expect that the carbonyl (C=O) group would be a functional group, a reactive part of the molecule. All of these reasons were connected with the way electrons are distributed in the group. Functional groups are the places where changing the location of electrons can happen fairly easily, which means that the distribution of electrons in a functional group is a key to its reactivity. We need a specific example to make these ideas useful. 1.4: ACETAL FORMATION, MECHANISM, RESONANCE Last time I left you with a problem, "what is the mechanism for the base catalyzed addition of water to a carbonyl group?" Let's go through that and see how it goes. 1.5: NITROGEN NUCLEOPHILES - IMINE FORMATION In many of the biological reactions of carbonyl groups the nucleophile is a nitrogen atom. The eventual outcome is different, so let's take a look at the details. The specific molecule as an example of a nitrogen nucleophile is methylamine. What happens if Nu = CH3NH2? Here's the complete mechanism. 1.6: ADDITION OF ORGANOMETALLICS - GRIGNARD Last time we looked at a reaction in which a new carbon-carbon bond was made. Today, we'll look at another such reaction, one which is generally quite useful for synthesis, the assembly of larger carbon structures from smaller molecules. 1.7: OXIDATION AND REDUCTION, ALPHA-C-H ACIDITY Last time we saw how a nucleophilic addition of a carbon atom to the carbonyl carbon could be carried out through the use of a Grignard reagent. This time we'll look at oxidations and reductions of carbonyl groups and at the acidity of the alpha hydrogen atom 1.8: ENOLATES, ALDOL CONDENSATION, SYNTHESIS Last time we worked through the reagents which oxidize aldehydes to carboxylic acids and the reagents which reduce aldehydes to primary alcohols and ketones to secondary alcohols. We also learned how enolate ions can be formed by the removal of an alpha hydrogen atom and how these enolate ions can act as nucleophiles toward bromine. 1.9: CARBOXYLIC ACID DERIVATIVES- INTERCONVERSION Today we'll look at carboxylic acid derivatives. This group of compounds also contains a carbonyl group, but now there is an electronegative atom (oxygen, nitrogen, or a halogen) attached to the carbonyl carbon. This difference in structure leads to a major change in reactivity. Here we find that the reactions of this group of compounds typically involve substitution of the electronegative atom by a nucleophile. 1.10: CARBOXYLIC ACID DERIVATIVES - ALPHA CARBON REACTIONS Last time we looked at several reactions of carboxylic acid derivatives and learned how to make esters and amides. Today we'll look at some further reactions of esters, including some which make new carbon-carbon bonds. 1.11: FATS, FATTY ACIDS, DETERGENTS Last time we looked at several reactions of carboxylic acid derivatives and learned how to make esters and amides. Today we'll look at some further reactions of esters. We'll also examine the chemistry of the ester functional group in fats. 1.12: CARBOXYLIC ACIDS Last time we looked the reactions of esters with lithium aluminum hydride and with Grignard reagents. We followed that with the chemistry of enolates formed from esters and then looked at fats and soaps. Today we'll look at the parent functional group of carboxylic acid derivatives, the carboxylic acid group itself. We'll see how we can make carboxylic acids and ask why they are acids. 1 9/26/2021 1.13: ALCOHOLS Today, we'll examine the chemistry of alcohols. First, we'll review the reactions we've already seen which make alcohols. Then we'll look at the reactions of the alcohol functional group. 1.14: ETHERS, EPOXIDES, THIOLS Today, we'll go on to look at the acidity of alcohols and the uses of their conjugate bases as nucleophiles. That will take us to the chemistry of ethers. We'll finish with a look at thiols, close relatives of alcohols in which a sulfur atom has replaced the oxygen. 1.15: CHIRALITY, THREE DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE Today we'll take a look at structure. We'll find that we have to begin to think in three dimensions to understand some structural differences between very similar compounds. 1.16: R/S NAMING, TWO OR MORE STEREOGENIC CENTERS Today, we'll look at naming compounds with stereocenters, and then we'll examine the complications which arise when a molecule has more than one stereocenter in it. 1.17: CARBOHYDRATES- MONOSACCHARIDES Last time we learned how a chiral compound's absolute configuration can be described by the R/S naming system. We also considered the situations which can arise when a compound has two (or more) stereogenic carbons. Our examples for that were in fact sugars; monosaccharide aldotetroses.

Because this group is the functional group of aldehydes, ketones, and carboxylic acids and their derivatives, it is one of the most important functional groups in organic chemistry and in the chemistry of biological systems. The chemical properties of the carbonyl group are straightforward, and an understanding of its characteristic reaction themes leads very quickly to an understanding of a wide variety of organic reactions.

Part 1: y Hemicarbonato and Carbonato Complexes Laurent Plasseraud Institut de Chimie Moléculaire de l’Université de Bourgogne (ICMUB), UMR-CNRS 6302, Université de Bourgogne Franche-Comté, 9 avenue A. Savary, F-21078 Dijon, France; [email protected] Paper dedicated to Professor Georg Süss-Fink on the occasion of his 70th birthday. y Received: 31 March 2020; Accepted: 24 April 2020; Published: 29 April 2020 Abstract: This review focuses on organotin compounds bearing hemicarbonate and carbonate ligands, and whose molecular structures have been previously resolved by single-crystal X-ray diffraction analysis. Most of them were isolated within the framework of studies devoted to the reactivity of tin precursors with carbon dioxide at atmospheric or elevated pressure. Alternatively, and essentially for the preparation of some carbonato derivatives, inorganic carbonate salts such as K2CO3, Cs2CO3, Na2CO3 and NaHCO3 were also used as coreagents. In terms of the number of X-ray structures, carbonate compounds are the most widely represented (to date, there are 23 depositions in the Cambridge Structural Database), while hemicarbonate derivatives are rarer; only three have so far been characterized in the solid-state, and exclusively for diorganotin complexes. For each compound, the synthesis conditions are first specified. Structural aspects involving, in particular, the modes of coordination of the hemicarbonato and carbonato moieties and the coordination geometry around tin are then described and illustrated (for most cases) by showing molecular representations. Moreover, when they were available in the original reports, some characteristic spectroscopic data are also given for comparison (in table form).

BROWN AND LOTHROP SMITH During summer vacations, part of my school expense was earn­ ed as a purchaser of non-ferrous scrap metal for a small Chicago smelter. In such purchasing, it is very necessary to know some­ thing of the general composition of the metal. For example, in buying soldered articles, it is of vital importance to know whether the solder is high in tin or lead, and whether it contains antimony or bismuth. Other purchasers to whom I have talked have report~ ed the same difficulty. It is common practice in the purchase of metal from large smelt­ ers, to take the vendor's word for the composition, as the only al­ ternatives are either an expensive analysis by a commercial labor­ atory, or the establishment of a laboratory by the small foundry.

  • Chapter 14 – Aldehydes and Ketones
    Chapter 14 – Aldehydes and Ketones 14.1 Structures and Physical Properties of Aldehydes and Ketones Ketones and aldehydes are related in that they each possess a C=O (carbonyl) group. They differ in that the carbonyl carbon in ketones is bound to two carbon atoms (RCOR’), while that in aldehydes is bound to at least one hydrogen (H2CO and RCHO). Thus aldehydes always place the carbonyl group on a terminal (end) carbon, while the carbonyl group in ketones is always internal. Some common examples include (common name in parentheses): O O H HH methanal (formaldehyde) trans-3-phenyl-2-propenal (cinnamaldehyde) preservative oil of cinnamon O O propanone (acetone) 3-methylcyclopentadecanone (muscone) nail polish remover a component of one type of musk oil Simple aldehydes (e.g. formaldehyde) typically have an unpleasant, irritating odor. Aldehydes adjacent to a string of double bonds (e.g. 3-phenyl-2-propenal) frequently have pleasant odors. Other examples include the primary flavoring agents in oil of bitter almond (Ph- CHO) and vanilla (C6H3(OH)(OCH3)(CHO)). As your book says, simple ketones have distinctive odors (similar to acetone) that are typically not unpleasant in low doses. Like aldehydes, placing a collection of double bonds adjacent to a ketone carbonyl generally makes the substance more fragrant. The primary flavoring agent in oil of caraway is just a such a ketone. 2 O oil of carraway Because the C=O group is polar, small aldehydes and ketones enjoy significant water solubility. They are also quite soluble in typical organic solvents. 14.2 Naming Aldehydes and Ketones Aldehydes The IUPAC names for aldehydes are obtained by using rules similar to those we’ve seen for other functional groups (e.g.

  • Carbonyl Compounds
    CARBONYL COMPOUNDS PART-4, PPT-4, SEM-3 Dr. Kalyan Kumar Mandal Associate Professor St. Paul’s C. M. College Kolkata CONTENTS: CARBONYL COMPOUNDS PART-4 • Formation of Acetal/Ketal • Formation of Thioacetal Reaction of Carbonyl Compounds with Alcohols • Carbonyl compounds react with alcohols. The product of this reaction is known as a hemiacetal, because it is halfway to an acetal. This reaction is analogous to hydrate formation from aldehydes and ketones. The mechanism follows in the footsteps of hydrate formation: ROH is used instead of HOH (water). This Lecture is prepared by Dr. K. K. Mandal, SPCMC, Kolkata Formation of Cyclic Hemiacetal • Hemiacetal formation is reversible, and they are stabilized by the same special structural features as those of hydrates. However, hemiacetals can also gain stability by being cyclic. • Cyclic hemiacetal is formed when the carbonyl group and the attacking hydroxyl group are part of the same molecule. The reaction is an intramolecular (within the same molecule) addition, as opposed to the intermolecular (between two molecules) ones. This is an example of ring-chain tautomerism. This Lecture is prepared by Dr. K. K. Mandal, SPCMC, Kolkata Formation of Cyclic Hemiacetal • Although the cyclic hemiacetal is more stable, it is still in equilibrium with some of the open-chain hydroxyaldehyde form. Its stability, and how easily it forms, depend on the size of the ring. • Five- and six-membered rings involve less strain (their bonds are free to adopt 109° or 120° angles) in comparison to the three- membered rings, and therefore five or six-membered hemiacetals are very common.

  • Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just Like an Alkene, Benzene Has Clouds of  Electrons Above and Below Its Sigma Bond Framework
    Reactions of Aromatic Compounds Just like an alkene, benzene has clouds of electrons above and below its sigma bond framework. Although the electrons are in a stable aromatic system, they are still available for reaction with strong electrophiles. This generates a carbocation which is resonance stabilized (but not aromatic). This cation is called a sigma complex because the electrophile is joined to the benzene ring through a new sigma bond. The sigma complex (also called an arenium ion) is not aromatic since it contains an sp3 carbon (which disrupts the required loop of p orbitals). Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page1 The loss of aromaticity required to form the sigma complex explains the highly endothermic nature of the first step. (That is why we require strong electrophiles for reaction). The sigma complex wishes to regain its aromaticity, and it may do so by either a reversal of the first step (i.e. regenerate the starting material) or by loss of the proton on the sp3 carbon (leading to a substitution product). When a reaction proceeds this way, it is electrophilic aromatic substitution. There are a wide variety of electrophiles that can be introduced into a benzene ring in this way, and so electrophilic aromatic substitution is a very important method for the synthesis of substituted aromatic compounds. Ch17 Reactions of Aromatic Compounds (landscape).docx Page2 Bromination of Benzene Bromination follows the same general mechanism for the electrophilic aromatic substitution (EAS). Bromine itself is not electrophilic enough to react with benzene. But the addition of a strong Lewis acid (electron pair acceptor), such as FeBr3, catalyses the reaction, and leads to the substitution product.
