Ch. 19-20 Lect. 2 Carboxylic Acids and Derivatives
I.
Alkanoyl Halides
A.
Preparation
1) Inorganic esters utilized, just as in conversion of alcohols to alkyl halides
2) PBr3, SOCl2 convert carboxylic acids to alkanoyl halides

Reactivity: most reactive and useful derivative
1.
Modified LiAlH4 reagent LiAl[OC(CH3)3]3H required to prevent over-reduction to alcohols
2.
Organocuprates are less reactive alkyl metal reagents to prevent second addition to ketone

Amines do addition-elimination to give amides
Alcohols do addition-elimination to give esters
Acids do addition-elimination to give anhydrides
Water does addition-elimination to give acids
II.
Anhydrides
A.
Preparation
1) As just seen, the reaction of an acid and an alkanoyl halide form anhydrides
2) The –OH group of the acid is a weak nucleophile for the reactive alkanoyl halide
3) Dehydration of two carboxylic acids can also work if 5-6 membered ring forms

Reactivity
1) All the alkanoyl halides reactions work for anhydrides, but are slower
2) Leaving group is a carboxylate anion, removed by aqueous extraction
3) Use anhydride as an activated substitute for reactions with carboxylic acids
III. Esters
A.
Preparation
1) As seen, alcohols do addition-elimination to alkanoyl halides to give esters
2) Acid catalyzed addition-elimination of alcohols to carboxylic acids is also useful
3) Esterification (and Ester Hydrolysis) Mechanism

Grignard Reagents + Esters give Alcohols

Adds one carbon to the haloalkane, then turns it into carboxylic acid
Make derivatives from there; take advantage of all of their reactions
