Carboxylic Acid Derivative Reactions - By The Organic Chemistry Tutor
00:00 | in this lesson , we're going to focus on reactions | |
00:03 | associated with carbons like acid derivatives . So the first | |
00:07 | thing you need to know is that an ASic alright | |
00:11 | is more reactive then an acid anhydride and the acid | |
00:19 | anhydride is more reactive than and Esther the ester and | |
00:29 | a carbolic acid . They have about the same reactivity | |
00:34 | . Now carpets look asset is more reactive than um | |
00:37 | I'd and in a minute is more reactive than the | |
00:43 | deep originated form of a carbon look acid . So | |
00:48 | it's more reactive than the car box . Later on | |
00:51 | now let's focus on reactions that produce carbon like acids | |
00:56 | . So we're gonna start with an acid chloride . | |
00:59 | If we add water to a carbon like acid derivative | |
01:03 | , it's going to make a carbolic acid . The | |
01:08 | leaving group C . L . Will pair up with | |
01:10 | hydrogen atom from water given us HDL as a byproduct | |
01:15 | and then we need to pair up these two parts | |
01:17 | and that's going to give us the card is like | |
01:20 | acid . So that's a quick way to determine what | |
01:23 | the products will be in this reaction . Now the | |
01:27 | acid chloride is more reactive , then the carpets look | |
01:33 | acid . And so whenever you have the situation , | |
01:37 | whenever you have a reaction with a more reactive species | |
01:41 | on the left , but a less reactive species on | |
01:44 | the right , the position of equilibrium will always favor | |
01:50 | the side with the species that is less reactive . | |
01:53 | So the reaction is going to go in the direction | |
01:55 | towards the less reactive species . In this case we | |
01:59 | have a product favorite reaction . Let me give another | |
02:04 | example . Now let's take another acid derivative in this | |
02:08 | case the acid anhydride . And let's react it with | |
02:11 | water . So we're going to pair up the leaving | |
02:17 | group with the hydrogen . And so let's make it | |
02:21 | an un symmetrical and hydrate . So these two will | |
02:26 | get together and we're going to get propane OIC acid | |
02:31 | . And then if we pair up these two we're | |
02:33 | going to get another carbon like acid . And so | |
02:39 | whenever you mix an asset and high track with water | |
02:42 | you get two carbons . Look acids . Now the | |
02:46 | acid anhydride is more reactive and then the car was | |
02:51 | like acid , the carbolic acid is less reactive . | |
02:54 | And so like the other reaction , this is a | |
02:58 | product favorite reaction . Another way in which you can | |
03:05 | make a carbon like acid is by reacting and Esther | |
03:09 | with water . And so this is going to be | |
03:15 | the side product . So if you add H with | |
03:19 | O . C H three , You get a chance | |
03:21 | zero CH 3 or if you want to you can | |
03:24 | write it this way CH , three OH . So | |
03:29 | that's an alcohol and then combining these two , that's | |
03:33 | going to give us the card is like acid . | |
03:35 | So any time you add water to one of the | |
03:38 | carbolic acid derivatives , you're going to get a carbon | |
03:43 | like acid , assuming that the derivative is not less | |
03:46 | reactive in the water . Now the ester and the | |
03:51 | carbolic acid they have the same reactivity , they're equally | |
03:57 | reactive . And so therefore this reaction is an equilibrium | |
04:03 | , it's reversible . So you can go to the | |
04:05 | right or you can go to the left and to | |
04:07 | speed up this reaction , you need a catalyst , | |
04:10 | typically an acid catalysts . Now because this reaction is | |
04:18 | in equilibrium , you can cause it to go one | |
04:21 | way by adjusting the concentration of the species in this | |
04:24 | reaction . For example , if you increase the concentration | |
04:27 | of water , you can drive the reaction towards the | |
04:30 | right . Or if you increase the concentration of the | |
04:33 | alcohol , you can drive the reaction towards the left | |
04:38 | . So anytime you increase the concentration of a reactant | |
04:41 | , you can drive it to the right . Or | |
04:44 | if you increase the concentration of a product , you | |
04:46 | can draw the reaction to the left based on a | |
04:49 | leash Italians principle of equilibrium . Now let's go over | |
04:54 | the mechanism for the first reaction between and acid chloride | |
04:58 | and water . So feel free to pause the video | |
05:05 | and try this mechanism if you want to . The | |
05:08 | first step is that water is going to attack the | |
05:10 | carbon , your group , the carbon or carbon has | |
05:14 | a partial positive charge and the oxygen of water has | |
05:18 | a partial negative charge . So the auction item is | |
05:22 | attracted to the carbon atom of the acid chloride and | |
05:29 | so the pie bon is gonna break . Given us | |
05:32 | a tetra federal intermediate that looks like this . Mhm | |
05:42 | . Now in the next step we need to use | |
05:43 | a weak base to remove a hydrogen and so we | |
05:47 | could use another water molecule to do that for us | |
05:52 | by the way . This first step and the second | |
05:54 | step is reversible . Now this tetra hydro intermediate is | |
06:03 | unstable and so it's going to collapse . Now , | |
06:07 | what we need to determine is which group will leave | |
06:10 | . Is it going to be the chlorine group or | |
06:12 | the hydroxy group ? Hydroxide is a stronger base than | |
06:17 | chloride . So it's a poor leaving group . Therefore | |
06:20 | , see how is going to leave . So this | |
06:23 | long period will reform the pie bod , expelling the | |
06:26 | best leaving group in this tetra hydro intermediate . And | |
06:30 | so that's how we can go from and ask the | |
06:33 | chloride to a carbon like acid . Now let's focus | |
06:38 | on reactions that produce acid anhydride . A simple way | |
06:43 | to do this is to react to carbons like acid | |
06:47 | molecules together . If you take out water and you | |
06:54 | combine the left side and the right side , it's | |
06:57 | going to give you the acid anhydride and a side | |
07:02 | product is water . Now , acid and hydrates are | |
07:08 | more reactive then carbolic acids , which are less reactive | |
07:17 | . As a result , this is not a product | |
07:19 | favorite reaction . The reactant are energetically favored . Now | |
07:26 | in order to drive the reaction to the right , | |
07:29 | we need to add heat . Now here's what's gonna | |
07:33 | happen once you add a heat , the water that | |
07:37 | exists as a product when he did it can turn | |
07:40 | into steam and it could leave the solution and so | |
07:44 | as water leaves the solution , esteem . The concentration | |
07:48 | of water in a solution decreases and based on the | |
07:52 | fatalities principle of equilibrium . If you decrease the concentration | |
07:56 | of a product , what's going to happen , we | |
07:59 | know the reaction will shift to the right and so | |
08:02 | you need to add heat or a dehydrating re agent | |
08:06 | to basically try this reaction forward P 205 is an | |
08:11 | example of a dehydrating re agent that you could use | |
08:14 | in this case . Or you could just use heat | |
08:18 | . So that's one way in which you can make | |
08:20 | . And acid anhydride . Here is an example problem | |
08:30 | . So here we have a molecule with two carbons | |
08:33 | like acid functional groups facing each other . What's going | |
08:37 | to happen if we had heat to it , go | |
08:41 | ahead and predict the major product of this reaction . | |
08:45 | So we know what's going to happen . Water is | |
08:48 | going to be removed and so we're going to get | |
08:53 | a sigh , click anhydride . And this in hydrate | |
08:58 | is known as phallic and hydrate and we'll get water | |
09:11 | as a side product . The reaction is known as | |
09:17 | folic acid . And so anytime you have two carbons | |
09:22 | like acid functional groups reacting with each other . And | |
09:26 | if you use heat or a dehydrating agent and then | |
09:30 | high tried will form now another way in which we | |
09:33 | can make and anhydride is by reacting an acid chloride | |
09:41 | with a carbon look acid . So in this case | |
09:50 | HDL is going to be the byproduct . Now this | |
09:54 | reaction is favorable because room temperature hcls gas and so | |
09:59 | it's going to leave this solution so the concentration of | |
10:03 | a product is going down . Therefore this will dry | |
10:07 | the reaction towards the right . So now all we | |
10:11 | need to do is combine these two and our main | |
10:13 | product will be economic and hydrate . So that's another | |
10:21 | way in which you can make an and hydrate is | |
10:23 | by reacting those two together . |
