1 Nucleophilic substitution on carbonyl groups Carboxylic acid derivates The functional group of a carboxylic acid is a carboxyl group the general formula of an aliphatic carboxylic acid is RCOOH that of an aromatic carboxylic acid is ArCOOH

Slide 2

2 Nucleophilic substitution on carbonyl groups Carboxylic acid derivates e oic acidIUPAC names: drop the -e from the parent alkane and add the suffix - oic acid anen if the compound contains a carbon-carbon double bond, change the infix -an- to -en-

Slide 6

6 Nucleophilic substitution on carbonyl groups Carboxylic acid derivates when common names are used, the letters etc. are often used to locate substituents keto aceto group in common nomenclature, keto indicates the presence of a ketone, and CH 3 CO- is named an aceto group

Slide 7

7 Nucleophilic substitution on carbonyl groups Carboxylic acid derivates water solubility decreases as the relative size of the hydrophobic portion of the molecule increases Carboxylic acids have significantly higher boiling points than other types of organic compounds of comparable molecular weight they are polar compounds and form very strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds Carboxylic acids are more soluble in water than alcohols, ethers, aldehydes, and ketones of comparable molecular weight they form hydrogen bonds with water molecules through their C=O and OH groups

Slide 8

8 Carboxylic acids are weak acids values of pKa for most aliphatic and aromatic carboxylic acids fall within the range 4 to 5 the greater acidity of carboxylic acids relative to alcohols, both of which contain an OH group, is due to resonance stabilization of the carboxylate anion Nucleophilic substitution on carbonyl groups Carboxylic acid derivates electron-withdrawing substituents near the carboxyl group increase acidity through their inductive effect
