Discuss structure of the carbonyl group.

//X

The carbonyl carbon atom is sp2-hybridised and forms three sigma (s) bonds.

The fourth valence electron of carbon remains in its p-orbital and forms a p-bond with oxygen by overlap with p-orbital of an oxygen.

In addition, the oxygen atom also has two non bonding electron pairs. Thus, the carbonyl carbon and the three atoms attached to it lie in the same plane and the p-electron cloud is above and below this plane.

The bond angles are approximately 120° as expected of a trigonal coplanar structure (Fig.).

The carbon-oxygen double bond is polarised due to higher electronegativity of oxygen relative to carbon. Hence, the carbonyl carbon is an electrophilic (Lewis acid), and carbonyl oxygen, a nucleophilic (Lewis base) centre. Carbonyl compounds have significant dipole moments and are polar than ethers. The high polarity of the carbonyl group is explained on the basis of resonance involving neutral (A) and a dipolar (B) structures as shown.

//M2//QN17//SUB//DL0//EQ

Write a note on solubility of aldehydes and ketones.

//X

The lower members of aldehydes and ketones such as methanal, ethanal and propanone are miscible with water in all proportion, because they form hydrogen bond with water.

However, the solubility of aldehydes and ketones decreases rapidly on increasing the length of alkyl chain. All aldehydes and ketones are fairly soluble in organic solvents like benzene, ether, methanol, chloroform, etc. The lower aldehydes have sharp pungent odours.

//X

A nucleophile attacks the electrophilic carbon atom of the polar carbonyl group from a direction approximately perpendicular to the plane of
sp2 hybridised orbitals of carbonyl carbon (Fig.).

The hybridization of carbon changes from
sp2 to sp3 in this process, and a tetrahedral alkoxide intermediate is produced. This intermediate captures a proton from the reaction medium to give the electrically neutral product. The net result is addition of Nu– and H+ across the carbon oxygen double bond as shown in Fig.

The position of the equilibrium lies largely to the right hand side for most aldehydes and to the left for most ketones due to steric reasons.

The hydrogensulphite addition compound is water soluble and can be converted back to the original carbonyl compound by treating it with dilute mineral acid or alkali.

Therefore, these are useful for separation and purification of aldehydes.

//X

Alcohols are produced by the reaction of Grignard reagents with aldehydes and ketones.

The first step of the reaction is the nucleophilic addition of Grignard reagent to the carbonyl group to form an adduct. Hydrolysis of the adduct yields and alcohol.

The overall reactions using different aldehydes and ketones are as follows:

You will notice that the reaction produces a primary alcohol with methanal, a secondary alcohol with other aldehydes and tertiary alcohol with ketones.

//M4//QN23//SUB//DL0//EQ

Explain with equations, the nucleophilic addition reaction of aldehydes and ketones with alcohols. And also explain that why this reaction is carried out in the presence of dry hydrogen chloride?

//X

Addition of alcohols: Aldehydes react with one equivalent of monohydric alcohol in the presence of dry hydrogen chloride to yield alkoxyalcohol intermediate, known as hemiacetals, which further react with one more molecule of alcohol to give a gem-dialkoxy compound known as acetal as shown in the reaction.

Ketones react with ethylene glycol under similar conditions to form cyclic products known as ethylene glycol ketals.

Dry hydrogen chloride protonates the oxygen of the carbonyl compounds and therefore, increases the electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon facilitating the nucleophilic attack of ethylene glycol. Acetals and ketals are hydrolysed with aqueous mineral acids to yield corresponding aldehydes and ketones respectively.

Aldehydes differ from ketones in their oxidation reactions. Aldehydes are easily oxidised to carboxylic acids on treatment with common oxidising agents like nitric acid, potassium permanganate, potassium dichromate, etc. Even mild oxidising agents, mainly Tollens’ reagent and Fehlings’ reagent also oxidise aldehydes.

Discuss in details the oxidation of methyl ketones by haloform reaction. And also mention that for detection of which type of group this reaction is useful?

//X

Aldehydes and ketones having at least one methyl group linked to the carbonyl carbon atom (methyl ketones) are oxidised by sodium hypohalite to sodium salt of corresponding carboxylic acid having one carbon atom less than that of carbonyl compound.

The methyl group is converted to haloform.

This oxidation does not affect a carbon-carbon double bond, if present in the molecule.

Explain aldol condensation with suitable example.OR Write a short note: Aldol condensation.

//X

Aldol condensation: Aldehydes and ketones having at least one a-hydrogen undergo a reaction in the presence of dilute alkali as catalyst to form b-hydroxy aldehydes (aldol) or b-hydroxy ketones (ketol), respectively. This is known as Aldol reaction.

The name aldol is derived from the names of the two functional groups, aldehyde and alcohol, present in the products. The aldol and ketol readily lose water to give a, b-unsaturated carbonyl compounds which are aldol condensation products and the reaction is called Aldol condensation. Though ketones give ketols (compounds containing a keto and alcohol groups), the general name aldol condensation still applies to the reactions of ketones due to their similarity with aldehydes.

//X

Cross aldol condensation: “When aldol condensation is carried out between two different aldehydes and / or ketones, it is called cross aldol condensation.” If both of them contain a-hydrogen atoms, it gives a mixture of four products.

//X

Aromatic carboxylic acids can be prepared by vigorous oxidation of alkyl benzenes with chromic acid or acidic or alkaline potassium permanganate. The entire side chain is oxidised to the carboxyl group irrespective of length of the side chain. Primary and secondary alkyl groups are oxidised in this manner while tertiary group is not affected. Suitably substituted alkenes are also oxidised to carboxylic acids with these oxidising reagents.

//M2//QN45//SUB//DL0//EQ

Discuss the physical properties of carboxylic acids in terms of their physical state and boiling point.

//X

Aliphatic carboxylic acids upto nine carbon atoms are colourless liquids at room temperature with unpleasant odours.

The higher acids are wax like solids and are practically odourless due to their low volatility.

Carboxylic acids are higher boiling liquids than aldehydes, ketones and even alcohols of comparable molecular masses.

This is due to more extensive association of carboxylic acid molecules through intermolecular hydrogen bonding. The hydrogen bonds are not broken completely even in the vapour phase. In fact, most carboxylic acids exist as dimer in the vapour phase or in the aprotic solvents.

//M2//QN46//SUB//DL0//EQ

Write a note on solubility of carboxylic acids.

//X

Simple aliphatic carboxylic acids having upto four carbon atoms are miscible in water due to the formation of hydrogen bonds with water.

The solubility decreases with increasing number of carbon atoms. Higher carboxylic acids are practically insoluble in water due to the increased hydrophobic interaction of hydrocarbon part. Benzoic acid, the simplest aromatic carboxylic acid is nearly insoluble in cold water.

Carboxylic acids are also soluble in less polar organic solvents like benzene, ether, alcohol, chloroform, etc.

//M2//QN47//SUB//DL0//EQ

Explain reaction of carboxylic acids with metals and alkalies. OR Write the equations for the reactions showing that carboxylic acids are acidic in nature and state the usefulness of this reactions.

//X

The carboxylic acids like alcohols evolve hydrogen with electropositive metals and form salts with alkalies similar to phenols. However, unlike phenols they react with weaker bases such as carbonates and hydrogencarbonates to evolve carbon dioxide. This reaction is used to detect the presence of carboxyl group in an organic compound.

2R–COOH + 2Na → 2R – CONa+ + H2

Sodium carboxylate

R–COOH + NaOH → R–CONa+ + H2O

R–COOH + NaHCO3 → R–CONa+ + H2O + CO2

//M3//QN48//SUB//DL0//EQ

Give reason: carboxylic acids are more acidic than alcohols and phenols.OR Although phenoxide ion has more number of resonating structures than carboxylate ion, carboxylic acid is a stronger acid than phenol. Why?

//X

Carboxylic acids dissociate in water to give resonance stabilised carboxylate anions and hydronium ion.

Phenols dissociate in water to give resonance stabilized phenoxide anions and hydronium ion.

The conjugate base of carboxylic acid, a carboxylate ion, is stabilised by two equivalent resonance structures in which the negative charge is at the more electronegative oxygen atom.

The conjugate base of phenol, a phenoxide ion, has non-equivalent resonance structures in which the negative charge is at the less electronegative carbon atom.

Therefore, resonance in phenoxide ion is not as important as it is in carboxylate ion. Further, the negative charge is delocalised over two electronegative oxygen atoms in carboxylate ion whereas it is less effectively delocalised over one oxygen atom and less electronegative carbon atoms in phenoxide ion.

Thus, the carboxylate ion is more stabilised than phenoxide ion, so carboxylic acids are more acidic than phenols.

//M4//QN49//SUB//DL0//EQ

Explain the effect of substituents on the acidity of carboxylic acids.

//X

Substituents may affect the stability of the conjugate base and thus, also affect the acidity of the carboxylic acids. Electron withdrawing groups increase the acidity of carboxylic acids by stabilising the conjugate base through delocalisation of the negative charge by inductive and/or resonance effects. Conversely, electron donating groups decrease the acidity by destabilising the conjugate base.

The effect of the following groups in increasing acidity order is

Ph < I < Br < Cl < F < CN < NO2 < CF3.

Thus, the following acids are arranged in order of decreasing acidity (based on pKa values):

CF3COOH > CCl3COOH > CHCl2COOH > NO2CH2COOH > NC–CH2COOH >

FCH2COOH > ClCH2COOH > BrCH2COOH > HCOOH > ClCH2CH2COOH >

[Continue]

C6H5COOH > C6H5CH2COOH > CH3COOH > CH3CH2COOH

[Continue]

Direct attachment of groups such as phenyl or vinyl to the carboxylic acid, increases the acidity of corresponding carboxylic acid, contrary to the decrease expected due to resonance effect shown below:

This is because of greater electronegativity of sp2 hybridised carbon to which carboxyl carbon is attached. The presence of electron withdrawing group on the phenyl of aromatic carboxylic acid increases their acidity while electron donating groups decrease their acidity.

//X

Aromatic carboxylic acids undergo electrophilic substitution reactions in which the carboxyl group acts as a deactivating and meta-directing group.
