Alcohols and Phenols Chapter 17: Alcohols and Phenols 1 Alcohols and Phenols Alcohols contain an OH group connected to a saturated C (sp3) They are important solvents and synthesis intermediates Methanol, CH3OH, called methyl alcohol, is a common solvent, a fuel additive, produced in large quantities Ethanol, CH3CH2OH, called ethyl alcohol, is a solvent, fuel, beverage Phenols contain an OH group connected to a carbon in a benzene ring. Phenol, C6H5OH (“phenyl alcohol”) has diverse uses - it gives its name to the general class of compounds Enol, contains both a double bond and OH, they do not have to be adjacent, note that the priority goes to OH, the last name. alcohol (ROH) phenol enol 2 Industrial method for making ROH Methanol (methyl alcohol, wood alcohol) causes blindness in low doses (15 mL), and death in larger doses (100 – 250 mL). Catalytic reduction: Ethanol (ethyl alcohol, grain alcohol): Non-beverage use obtained by acid-catalyzed hydration of ethylene: 3 17.1 Naming Alcohols General classifications of alcohols based on C to which OH is attached CH3OH RCH2OH R2CHOH R3COH methyl primary 1o secondary 2o tertiary 3o 4 IUPAC Rules for Naming Alcohols Select the longest carbon chain containing the hydroxyl group, and derive the parent name by replacing the -e ending of the corresponding alkane with -ol Number the chain from the end nearer the hydroxyl group Number substituents according to position on chain, listing the substituents in alphabetical order Examples of primary alcohols: CH3CH2OH ethanol (grain alcohol) CH3CH2CH2OH 1-propanol (n-propanol) CH3CH2CH2CH2OH 1-butanol (n-butanol) CH2(OH)CH2CH(CH3)2 3-methyl-1-butanol 5 Secondary Alcohols 2-propanol 2-butanol (isopropyl or rubbing alcohol) 3-pentanol cyclopentanol 6 Tertiary Alcohols 2-methyl-2-pentanol 2-methyl-2-propanol tert-butyl alcohol 1-cyclopentenol phenol 7 Give the Structure or IUPAC Name for the following: 2-chloro-3-pentanol H OH 2-phenyl-2-propanol H CH3 OH H 3-ethyl-3-hexanol OH H2C CH(CH3)2 8 Give the Structure or IUPAC Name for the following: ROH with a multiple bond 2-propen-1-ol 2-cyclohexenol (Allyl alcohol) OH H2C C C CH2CH3 More than one ROH in a compound 1,3-pentanediol OH OH OH H2C CH CH CH2 CH3 9 Naming Phenols The word phenol is used both as the name of a specific substance (hydroxybenzene) and as a family name for hydroxy-substituted aromatic compounds. Phenols are named as substituted aromatic compounds according to the rules of naming aromatic compounds. Note that –phenol is used as the parent name rather than benzene. p-methylphenol 2,4-dinitrophenol 10 Naming Phenols Problems: Write the structure for the following: m-chlorophenol 2,4,6-tribromophenol The hydroxyl group is named as a substituent when it occurs in the same molecule with carboxylic acid, aldehyde, or ketone functional groups, which have priority in naming. m-hydroxybenzoic acid p-hydroxybenzaldehyde 11 17.2 Properties of Alcohols and Phenols: Hydrogen Bonding The structure around O of the alcohol or phenol is similar to that in water, sp3 hybridized Alcohols and phenols have much higher boiling points than similar alkanes and alkyl halides 12 Common alcohols are liquids. Lower molecular weight alcohols (R-OH) are miscible (soluble) in water. As the R-group increases in size, the solubility decreases. Branching tends to increase solubility over linear alcohols of the same molecular weight (isomers). The R-groups tend to make for decreased water solubility, as they are hydrophobic. The OH group tends to increase water solubility, as it is hydrophilic. Flammability: Lower molecular weight alcohols are more flammable, have a lower flash point than higher molecular weight alcohols. However, all alcohols tend to be flammable. Acidity of Alcohols and Phenols. Alcohols are about as acidic as water. Alcohols can undergo slight dissociation reaction with water forming an alkoxide ion (RO-)and + hydronium ion (H3O ). 13 17.3 Properties of Alcohols and Phenols: Acidity and Basicity Weakly basic and weakly acidic Alcohols are weak Brønsted bases, protonated by + strong acids to yield oxonium ions, ROH2 14 Alchols and Phenols are Weak Brønsted Acids Can transfer a proton to water to a very small extent + Produces H3O and an alkoxide ion, RO , or a phenoxide ion, ArO 15 Brønsted Acidity Measurements The acidity constant, Ka, measure the extent to which a Brønsted acid transfers a proton to water + [A ] [H3O ] Ka = ————— and pKa = log Ka [HA] Relative acidities are more conveniently presented on a logarithmic scale, pKa, which is directly proportional to the free energy of the equilibrium Differences in pKa correspond to differences in free energy Compounds with small Ka (or large pKa) are less acidic. 16 pKa Values for Typical OH Compounds 17 Relative Acidities of Alcohols Simple alcohols are about as acidic as water Alkyl groups make an alcohol a weaker acid The more easily the alkoxide ion is solvated by water the more its formation is energetically favored Steric effects are important 18 Inductive Effects Electron-withdrawing groups make an alcohol a stronger acid by stabilizing the conjugate base (alkoxide) and lower pKa 19 Generating Alkoxides from Alcohols Alcohols are weak acids – requires a strong base to form an alkoxide such as NaH, sodium amide NaNH3, and Grignard reagents (RMgX) Alkoxides are bases used as reagents in organic chemistry - + CH3OH + NaH CH3O Na + H2 - + CH3CH2OH + NaNH3 CH3CH2O Na + NH3 - + CH3CH2OH + CH3MgBr CH3CH2O MgBr + CH4 + - + 2ROH + 2Na 2RO Na + H2 20 Phenol Acidity Phenols are about a million times more acidic than alcohols because the phenoxide anion is resonance stabilized. They are soluble in dilute aqueous NaOH and can often be separated from a mixture by basic extraction. Substituted Phenols can be more or less acidic than phenol itself An electron-withdrawing substituent makes a phenol more acidic by delocalizing the negative charge Phenols with an electron-donating substituent are less acidic because these substituents concentrate the charge 21 17.4 Preparation of Alcohols: an Overview Alcohols are derived from many types of compounds The alcohol hydroxyl can be converted to many other functional groups This makes alcohols useful in synthesis Nucleophilic Substitution of alkyl halide by hydroxide R-X + OH- R-OH + X- X( = Br, Cl, I) - - CH3CH2I + OH CH3CH2OH + I 22 Review: Preparation of Alcohols by Regiospecific Hydration of Alkenes Hydration of Alkenes Hydroboration/oxidation yields syn addition non- Markovnikov products.

  • Simple Models for the Quick Estimation of Ground State Hydrogen Tunneling Splittings in Alcohols Cite This: Phys
    PCCP View Article Online PAPER View Journal | View Issue Simple models for the quick estimation of ground state hydrogen tunneling splittings in alcohols Cite this: Phys. Chem. Chem. Phys., 2021, 23, 17591 and other compounds† Robert Medel Models for the quick estimation of energy splittings caused by coherent tunneling of hydrogen atoms are evaluated with available experimental data for alcohols and improvements are proposed. The discussed models are mathematically simple and require only results from routine quantum chemical computations, i.e. hybrid DFT calculation of the equilibrium geometry and the transition state within the harmonic approximation. A benchmark of experimental splittings spanning four orders of magnitude for 27 alcohol species is captured by three evaluated models with a mean symmetric deviation factor of 1.7, 1.5 and 1.4, respectively, i.e. the calculated values deviate on average by this factor in either direction. Limitations of the models are explored with alcohols featuring uncommon Creative Commons Attribution 3.0 Unported Licence. properties, such as an inverted conformational energy sequence, a very light molecular frame, an elevated torsional frequency, or a coupling with a second internal degree of freedom. If the splitting of either the protiated or deuterated form of an alcohol is already experimentally determined, the one of the second isotopolog can be estimated by three additional models with a mean symmetric deviation factor of 1.14, 1.19 and 1.15, respectively. It is shown that this can be achieved with a novel approach without any quantum chemical calculation by directly correlating experimental splittings of isotopologs across related species.

  • Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater
    Standard Methods for the Examination of Water and Wastewater Part 1000 INTRODUCTION 1010 INTRODUCTION 1010 A. Scope and Application of Methods The procedures described in these standards are intended for the examination of waters of a wide range of quality, including water suitable for domestic or industrial supplies, surface water, ground water, cooling or circulating water, boiler water, boiler feed water, treated and untreated municipal or industrial wastewater, and saline water. The unity of the fields of water supply, receiving water quality, and wastewater treatment and disposal is recognized by presenting methods of analysis for each constituent in a single section for all types of waters. An effort has been made to present methods that apply generally. Where alternative methods are necessary for samples of different composition, the basis for selecting the most appropriate method is presented as clearly as possible. However, samples with extreme concentrations or otherwise unusual compositions or characteristics may present difficulties that preclude the direct use of these methods. Hence, some modification of a procedure may be necessary in specific instances. Whenever a procedure is modified, the analyst should state plainly the nature of modification in the report of results. Certain procedures are intended for use with sludges and sediments. Here again, the effort has been to present methods of the widest possible application, but when chemical sludges or slurries or other samples of highly unusual composition are encountered, the methods of this manual may require modification or may be inappropriate. Most of the methods included here have been endorsed by regulatory agencies. Procedural modification without formal approval may be unacceptable to a regulatory body.

Boyer,2 and Christopher R. Arumainayagam1* 1 Department of Chemistry, Wellesley College, Wellesley, MA 02481 2 Department of Physics, Clark University, Worcester, MA 01610 Abstract We report the identification of methoxymethanol (CH3OCH2OH) as a photochemistry product of condensed methanol (CH3OH) based on temperature-programmed desorption studies conducted following photon irradiation at energies below the ionization threshold (9.8 eV) of condensed methanol. The first detection of methoxymethanol in the interstellar medium was reported in 2017 based on data from Bands 6 and 7 from the Atacama Large Millimeter/submillimeter Array (ALMA). The cosmic synthesis of “complex” organic molecules such as methyl formate (HCOOCH3), dimethyl ether (CH3OCH3), acetic acid (CH3COOH), ethylene glycol (HOCH2CH2OH), and glycolaldehyde (HOCH2CHO) has been attributed to UV photolysis of condensed methanol found in interstellar ices. Experiments conducted in 1995 demonstrated that electron-induced radiolysis of methanol cosmic ice analogues yields methoxymethanol. In three recent publications (2016, 2017, and 2018), methoxymethanol was considered as a potential tracer for reactions induced by secondary electrons resulting from the interaction of cosmic rays with interstellar ices. However, the results presented in this study suggest that methoxymethanol can be formed from both radiation chemistry and photochemistry of condensed methanol.

Inhalation of vaporized e-liquid is a method of nicotine delivery that is growing in popularity and is commonly regarded as safe relative to smoking traditional tobacco products. The thermal decomposition of glycerol and propylene glycol is typical of alcohols and has been investigated, although not exhaustively. In this work, samples of propylene glycol and glycerol were vaporized using an electronic cigarette (e-cigarette) and were analyzed for evidence of decomposition using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy.

The chemical processes occurring after the impact were studied through Born-Oppenheimer (ab-initio) molecular dynamics. We focus on collisions with initial kinetic impact energy of 10–22 eV, where the richest chemistry happens. We report the formation mechanisms of stable complex organic molecules (COMs) such as methoxymethanol CH3OCH2OH, • formic acid HCOOH, formyl radical HCO, formaldehyde H2CO and its elusive HCOH isomer. We show that CH2(OH)2, CH2OH + • − or CH2OH are key intermediates to generate H2CO and other COMs. We compare the outcomes using OH with those using OH projectiles. These processes are likely relevant to the production of COMs in astrophysical environments. We discuss its formation mechanism and the astrophysical implications of these chemical pathways in star-forming regions.
