CHE 242 Unit V Structure and Reactions of Alcohols, Ethers and Epoxides; Basic Principles of NMR Spectroscopy CHAPTER TEN Terrence P. Sherlock Burlington County College 2004 Classify these: C H3 C H3 CH C H3 C H 2O H C H3 C OH C H3 OH OH C H3 Chapter 10 CH C H2C H3 => 2 Name these: C H3 C H3 CH C H 2O H 2-methyl-1-propanol OH C H3 CH C H2C H3 2-butanol C H3 C H3 C OH OH C H3 2-methyl-2-propanol Br C H3 3-bromo-3-methylcyclohexanol => Chapter 10 3 Naming Priority • • • • • • Acids Esters Aldehydes Ketones Alcohols Amines • • • • • Alkenes Alkynes Alkanes Ethers Halides => Chapter 10 4 Hydroxy Substituent • When -OH is part of a higher priority class of compound, it is named as hydroxy. • Example: OH C H 2C H 2C H 2C O O H also known as GHB 4-hydroxybutanoic acid => Chapter 10 5 Glycols • 1, 2 diols (vicinal diols) are called glycols. • Common names for glycols use the name of the alkene from which they were made. C H 2C H 2 C H2C H2C H3 OH OH OH OH 1,2-ethanediol 1,2-propanediol ethylene glycol propylene glycol Chapter 10 => 6 Naming Phenols • -OH group is assumed to be on carbon 1. • For common names of disubstituted phenols, use ortho- for 1,2; meta- for 1,3; and para- for 1,4. OH • Methyl phenols are cresols. OH H 3C 4-methylphenol para-cresol Cl 3-chlorophenol meta-chlorophenol => Chapter 10 7 Physical Properties • Unusually high boiling points due to hydrogen bonding between molecules. • Small alcohols are miscible in water, but solubility decreases as the size of the alkyl group increases. => Chapter 10 8 Boiling Points => Chapter 10 9 Solubility in Water Solubility decreases as the size of the alkyl group increases. Chapter 10 => 10 Acidity of Alcohols • pKa range: 15.5-18.0 (water: 15.7) • Acidity decreases as alkyl group increases. • Halogens increase the acidity. • Phenol is 100 million times more acidic than cyclohexanol! => Chapter 10 11 Table of Ka Values C H3 OH => Chapter 10 12 Formation of Alkoxide Ions React methanol and ethanol with sodium metal (redox reaction). C H 3 C H 2 OH + Na C H3 C H2 O Na + 1 /2 H 2 React less acidic alcohols with more reactive potassium. (C H 3)3 C OH + (C H 3 )3 C O K K + 1 /2 H 2 => Chapter 10 13 Formation of Phenoxide Ion Phenol reacts with hydroxide ions to form phenoxide ions - no redox is necessary. O O H + OH + HOH pKa = 15.7 pKa = 10 => Chapter 10 14 Synthesis (Review) • Nucleophilic substitution of OH- on alkyl halide • Hydration of alkenes water in acid solution (not very effective) oxymercuration - demercuration hydroboration - oxidation => Chapter 10 15 Glycols (Review) • Syn hydroxylation of alkenes osmium tetroxide, hydrogen peroxide cold, dilute, basic potassium permanganate • Anti hydroxylation of alkenes peroxyacids, hydrolysis => Chapter 10 16 Organometallic Reagents • Carbon is bonded to a metal (Mg or Li). • Carbon is nucleophilic (partially negative). • It will attack a partially positive carbon. C - X C = O • A new carbon-carbon bond forms. => Chapter 10 17 Grignard Reagents • • • • Formula R-Mg-X (reacts like R:- +MgX) Stabilized by anhydrous ether Iodides most reactive May be formed from any halide primary secondary tertiary vinyl aryl => Chapter 10 18 Some Grignard Reagents Br + e th e r Mg Cl M gC l C H 3 C HC H 2 C H 3 C H3C Br MgB r + Mg C H2 + Mg ether e th e r C H 3 C HC H 2 C H 3 C H3C C H2 => MgB r Chapter 10 19 Organolithium Reagents • Formula R-Li (reacts like R:- +Li) • Can be produced from alkyl, vinyl, or aryl halides, just like Grignard reagents. • Ether not necessary, wide variety of solvents can be used. => Chapter 10 20 Reaction with Carbonyl • R:- attacks the partially positive carbon in the carbonyl. • The intermediate is an alkoxide ion. • Addition of water or dilute acid protonates the alkoxide to produce an alcohol.

Grignard reagent is destroyed, becomes an alkane. • No other electrophilic multiple bonds, like C=N, C—N, S=O, or N=O. => Chapter 10 32 Reduction of Carbonyl • Reduction of aldehyde yields 1º alcohol. • Reduction of ketone yields 2º alcohol. • Reagents: Sodium borohydride, NaBH4 Lithium aluminum hydride, LiAlH4 Raney nickel => Chapter 10 33 Sodium Borohydride • Hydride ion, H , attacks the carbonyl carbon, forming an alkoxide ion. • Then the alkoxide ion is protonated by dilute acid. • Only reacts with carbonyl of aldehyde or ketone, not with carbonyls of esters or carboxylic acids. O H C H C H H O H H3O + O C H => Chapter 10 34 H Lithium Aluminum Hydride • Stronger reducing agent than sodium borohydride, but dangerous to work with. • Converts esters and acids to 1º alcohols.
