Base-Catalyzed Aldol Reactions In aqueous base, acetaldehyde undergoes a reaction called the aldol addition.

An aldol addition is a reaction of two aldehyde molecules to form a b-hydroxy aldehyde. The aldol addition is a very important and general reaction of aldehydes and ketones that have a-hydrogens. Notice that this reaction provides another method of form- ing carbon–carbon bonds. The base-catalyzed aldol addition involves an enolate ion as an intermediate. In this reac- tion, an enolate ion, formed by the reaction of acetaldehyde with aqueous NaOH, adds to a second molecule of acetaldehyde. 1 1 O O S S _ (22.40a) HO _ H CH2 CH H2C CH H2O 1 3 L L enolate2 L ion + 1 1 O O O _ O OH O 1 S3 3 S3 3 3 2 3 S3 3 H OH 3 2 S3 3 _ _ H3C CH H2C CH H3C "CH CH2 CH L 1 H3C "CH CH2 CH OH L enolate2 L ion L L L L L L + 3 1 (22.40b) The aldol addition is another nucleophilic addition to a carbonyl group. In this reaction, the nucleophile is an enolate ion. The reaction may look more complicated than some additions be- cause of the number of carbon atoms in the product. However, it is not conceptually different from other nucleophilic additions, such as cyanohydrin formation.

The aldol addition is reversible. Like many other carbonyl addition reactions (Sec. 19.7B), the equilibrium for the aldol addition is more favorable for aldehydes than for ketones. 22_BRCLoudon_pgs4-4.qxd 11/26/08 12:27 PM Page 1065 22.4 ALDOL ADDITION AND ALDOL CONDENSATION 1065 O OH O S S Ba(OH)2 2CH3C CH3 H3CC" CH2 C CH3 (22.42) LL LL LL acetone (equilibrium "CH3 lies to the left) 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentanone (diacetone alcohol) In this aldol addition reaction of acetone, the equilibrium favors the ketone reactant rather than the addition product, diacetone alcohol. This product can be isolated in good yield only if an apparatus is used that allows the product to be removed from the base catalyst as it is formed. Under more severe conditions (higher base concentration, or heat, or both), the product of aldol addition undergoes a dehydration reaction. 1 M NaOH OH 80 °C 2 CH3CH2CH2CHA O CH3CH2CH2"CH CHCHA O L butanal "CH2CH3 2-ethyl-3-hydroxyhexanal (the aldol addition product) CH3CH2CH2CHA CCHA O H2O (22.43) + "CH2CH3 2-ethyl-2-hexenal (86% yield) The sequence of reactions consisting of the aldol addition followed by dehydration, as in Eq. 22.43, is called the aldol condensation. (A condensation is a reaction in which two mole- cules combine to form a larger molecule with the elimination of a small molecule, in many cases water.) The term aldol condensation has been used historically to refer to the aldol addition reaction as well as to the addition and dehydration reactions together. To eliminate ambiguity, aldol condensation is used in this text only for the addition-dehydration sequence. The term aldol reactions is used to refer generically to both addition and condensation reactions. The dehydration part of the aldol condensation is a b-elimination reaction catalyzed by base, and it occurs in two distinct steps through an enolate-ion intermediate. 1 _ OH O 3 1 S H O 1 O C S S L _1 A 1 (22.44) "C "C C H2O "C C C $CC$ _ OH L L LL 3 + LLLL + 3 1 "OH " "OH " a),b-unsaturated) 1 1 aldol3 addition 3 carbanion carbonyl compound product intermediate This is not a concerted b-elimination. In this respect, it differs from the E2 reaction. (See Problem 9.16, p. 402.) 22_BRCLoudon_pgs4-4.qxd 11/26/08 12:27 PM Page 1066 1066 CHAPTER 22 • THE CHEMISTRY OF ENOLATE IONS, ENOLS, AND a,b-UNSATURATED CARBONYL COMPOUNDS A base-catalyzed dehydration reaction of simple alcohols is unknown; ordinary alcohols do not dehydrate in base. However, b-hydroxy aldehydes and b-hydroxy ketones do for two rea- sons. First, their a-hydrogens are relatively acidic. Recall that base-promoted b-eliminations are particularly rapid when acidic hydrogens are involved (Secs. 17.3B and 9.5B). Second, the product is conjugated and therefore is particularly stable. To the extent that the transition state of the dehydration reaction resembles the a,b-unsaturated ketone, it too is stabilized by con- jugation, and the elimination reaction is accelerated (Hammond’s postulate). The product of the aldol condensation is an a,b-unsaturated carbonyl compound. The aldol condensation is an important method for the preparation of certain a,b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds. Whether the aldol addition product or the condensation product is formed de- pends on reaction conditions, which must be worked out on a case-by-case basis. You can as- sume for purposes of problem-solving, unless stated otherwise, that either the addition prod- uct or the condensation product can be prepared. Musical History of the Aldol Condensation Discovery of the aldol condensation is usually attributed solely to Charles Adolphe Wurtz, a French chemist who trained Friedel and Crafts. However, the reaction was first investigated during the pe- riod 1864–1873 by Aleksandr Borodin (1833–1887), a Russian chemist who was also a self-taught and proficient musician and composer.(Borodin’s musical themes were used as the basis of songs in the musical Kismet.) Borodin found it difficult to compete with Wurtz’s large, modern, well-funded laboratory. Borodin also lamented that his professional duties so burdened him with “examinations and commissions” that he could only compose when he was at home ill. Knowing this, his musical friends used to greet him,“Aleksandr, I hope you are ill today!” B. Acid-Catalyzed Aldol Condensation Aldol condensations are also catalyzed by acid.

In acid-catalyzed aldol condensations, the conjugate acid of the aldehyde or ketone is a key reactive intermediate.

It reacts as an electrophile with the p electrons of the enol to give an a-hydroxy carbocation, which is also the conjugate acid of the addition product: 22_BRCLoudon_pgs4-4.qxd 11/26/08 12:27 PM Page 1067 22.4 ALDOL ADDITION AND ALDOL CONDENSATION 1067 OH| S3 one molecule of the H3CC CH3 protonated ketone a second molecule LL of the protonated H O H O ketone 2 3 | 1 1 1 H CH3 OH 1 CH3 O H 3 3 L OH2 $O| A"C H2C "C CH3 HO" C CH2 "C CH3 3 3 enolL 1 L L L | L "CH3 "CH3 an a-hydroxy carbocation the carbonyl carbon accepts (a protonated ketone; Sec.

  • Experiment 19 — Aldol Condensation
    Chem 22 Spring 2010 Experiment 19 — Aldol Condensation _____________________________________________________________________________ Pre-lab preparation. (1) Write the mechanism of the base-catalyzed aldol condensation of acetone and a generalized aromatic aldehyde, Ar–CH=O to give the α,β-unsaturated product (i.e. the reaction at the top of the next page, but with a 1:1 ratio of ketone and aldehyde). Remember that dehydration in this case occurs under basic conditions, so it can't start with protonation of the hydroxyl group. Nor can it go via an E2 pathway. (2) Draw the structures of all the possible aldehyde and ketone reactants (not the 25 possible condensation products!). (3) The new CC double bonds of the condensation products are E rather than Z, as shown in the acetone example. Why? (4) What's the purpose of rinsing the crude product with dilute acetic acid, followed by ethanol? (5) What is the procedure for carrying out a single-solvent recrystallization? Write this out in detail. The aldol condensation has historically been one of the favorite tools in the synthetic organic chemist's repertoire because of its versatility in forming new CC bonds. Since its discovery in the 1870s the aldol condensation has been use extensively in the synthesis of natural products and other complex molecules. In a typical base-catalyzed aldol condensation an enolate ion attacks the carbonyl group of an aldehyde or ketone. This carbonyl addition produces a β-hydroxy carbonyl compound. In many cases the initially formed condensation product undergoes an "E1cB" dehydration to produce an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound as the final product.

Chapter 2 Beginnings 2.1 Introduction At the start of the twentieth century, organic chemistry was not yet 75 years old as a separate and legitimate sub-discipline of the science. Considerable progress had been made in these first seven decades, and the stage was set for the dramatic advances in the science to come in the following century. Most practicing organic chemists are familiar with many of the great German, French and English organic chemists whose work helped the fledgling discipline grow, but few are familiar with the role that Russian organic chemists of the nineteenth and early twentieth century played in the development of the science. And this is in spite of the fact that many of the named rules and reactions that one studies in the first course in organic chemistry are, in fact, of Russian origin. It is the intent of this book to help rectify that deficiency.
