Ch 13 Carboxylic Acids
Carboxylic Acids
• Functional Group: Carboxyl Group (Carbonyl and
Hydroxyl at the same carbon has a new name!)
•
•
•
•
Condensed writing: COOH
Carboxyl Carbon is C#1
Alkane name, drop e replace with -oic acid
2 word name: Methanoic acid
Benzoic Acid
• Carboxyl on a benzene
• Carboxyl is attached to C#1
• List all substituent alpha and
Number either cw or ccw so you
get lowest numbers!
4-bromo-2-methylbenzoic acid
Naming Practice
• Parent alkane has to include carboxylic acid,
which is THE highest oxidized functional
group
Drawing Practice
Draw:
a) 2-methyl-3-phenyl pentanoic acid
b) 4- Iodo-2-isopropyl benzoic acid
Common Names of Carboxylic Acids
Fatty Acids
• Very long carboxylic acids
AHA: Alpha Hydroxy Acids
• Hydroxyl groups on the α Carbon: Carbon # 2
• Super polarity on this end!!!
• Natural occurring acids in sour milk and fruits
Part of many skin care products to exfoliate and
smooth skin
Properties of Carboxylic Acids
Acid Behavior
• Acids are H+ Donors
• Carboxylic Acids dissociate in water and lower
the pH
COOH + H2O → COO- + H3O+
carboxylate ion and
hydronium ion

H-bonds between Carboxyls
Boiling Point
• Carboxylic Acids have
the highest boiling point
of organic molecules
• More partial charges (4)
than alcohols (3)
Solubility
• Carboxylic Acids dissolve very well in water
• form H-bonds with water molecules
• But the longer the C-chain, the less soluble!
Solubility
Rx of Carboxylic Acids
Dissociation Rx
• when carboxylic acids dissociate they form a
carboxylate ion
Example:
HCOOH → HCOO- + H+
Methanoic Acid
Methanoate Ion
Naming of Ion:
Acid name: Methano-ic replace by –ate ion
Condensed structure: CH3-CH2-COO-
Neutralization Rx
• Acid + Base → Salt + water
• Carboxylate anions can react with metal
cations to form carboxylic acid salts:
• CH3COOH + NaOH → CH3COO-Na+ + H2O
Sodium ethanoate
• Draw in stick…
Esterification Rx
• Carboxylic Acid + Alcohol → Ester + H2O
H 2O
Ethanoic Acid Methanol
Methyl ethanoate
Name of Ion and Salt
Name:
a)
Potassium ethanoate
Or Potassium acetate
b)
Pentanoate Ion
CA in Nature
• Flavor enhancer: Sodium glutamate
Benzoic Acid
• Common Preservative
Aspirin
• Common analgesic
