Carbonyl Chemistry (12 Lectures)

Aim of Course

•To build upon elements of Dr E.H. Smith's and Dr. D.C. Braddocks's course. •To introduce the chemistry of the carbonyl functional groups.

Course Objectives

At the end of this course you should be able to:

•Identify the various functional groups that involve carbonyls •Explain reaction mechanisms associated with each type of functional group

Aldehydes and Ketones

•Aldehydes •Ketones •Carboxylic acids R C H O

Carboxylic acid derivatives:

•Esters •Anhydrides •Acid halides •Amides •We begin our study of carbonyl compounds with the study of aldehydes aldehydes and ketones ketones (the aldehyde/ketone oxidation level). -Carbonyl compounds are molecules containing the carbonyl group, C=O.

These include:

R C R' O R C OH O R C OR' O O C R' O R O R C NH 2 O R C X O

Note: two bonds to heteroatoms

Nomenclature of Aldehydes and Ketones

•Common names are used for the simplest aldehydes and ketones: formaldehyde butyraldehyde benzaldehyde acetone benzophenone acetophenone O C HH O C H CH 2 CH 2 CH 3 O C CH 3 H 3 C C O HC O CH 3 C O •Common names are also used for carbonyl-containing substituent groups, which are known collectively as acyl groups: HC O H 3 CC O C O formylacetyl benzoyl 4

Nomenclature of Aldehydes and Ketones

•Traditional names are used for a great many aldehydes and ketones which were recognized as substances long before systems of nomenclature were developed: O H O CH O •Three of the four bases which comprise DNA contain carbonyl groups (and all four bases are nitrogen heterocycles, which we will discuss later): NH N H O O H 3 C NH N N H N O NH 2 N N H NH 2 O guanine (G)thymine (T) cytosine (C) cinnamaldehyde furfural acrolein CHC O H H 2 C 5

Structure of Aldehydes and Ketones

•The carbonyl carbon of an aldehyde or ketone is sp 2 -hybridized. •The bond angle is close to 120° (trigonal planar). •The carbon-oxygen double bond consists of: -A ! C-O bond -A " C=O bond

We can compare the C=O bond length

to those of C=C double bonds 6

Properties of Aldehydes and Ketones

•Aldehydes and ketones are polar molecules because the C=O bond has a dipole moment: C O •Their polarity makes aldehydes and ketones have higher boiling points than alkenes of similar molecular weight. •Aldehydes and ketones are not hydrogen bond donors (they can't donate a proton); therefore, they have lower boiling points than alcohols of similar molecular weight. •Aldehydes and ketones are hydrogen bond acceptors; this makes them have considerable solubilities in water.

Ketones such as acetone are good solvents
