Chapter 14 Carboxylic Acids, Esters, Amines, and Amides
14.3 Esters
3
Esters Esters are found in fats and oils
responsible for the aroma and flavor of bananas, oranges, and strawberries O CH3 —C—O—CH3 ester group
4
Esterification Esterification is the reaction of a carboxylic acid and alcohol in the presence of an acid catalyst to produce an ester. The main chain of an ester comes from the carboxylic acid, while the alkyl group in an ester comes from the alcohol.
5
Esterification An example of esterification is the reaction of a ethanoic acid with 1-propanol to produce an ester called propylethanoate, responsible for the smell of pears.
6
Naming Esters Esters have IUPAC and common names:

Base Hydrolysis of Fatty Acids Produces Soaps
12
Cleaning Action of Soap
A soap contains a nonpolar end that dissolves in nonpolar fats and oils, and a polar end that dissolves in water forms groups of soap molecules called micelles that dissolve in water and are washed away

Chapter 14 Carboxylic Acids, Esters, Amines, and Amides
14.4 Amines
14
Amines Amines are derivatives of ammonia, NH3
contain N attached to one or more alkyl or aromatic groups CH3 CH3 CH3—NH CH3—NH CH3—N—CH3
15
Classification of Amines
Amines are classified as primary, secondary, or tertiary: a primary (1) amine has one carbon group bonded to the nitrogen atom a secondary (2) amine has two carbon groups bonded to the nitrogen atom a tertiary (3) amine has three carbon groups bonded to the nitrogen atom H CH CH3 | | | CH3—N—H CH3—N—H CH3—N—CH3 1° ° °
16
Skeletal Structures of Amines
The skeletal structures show the shapes of amine molecules with one or more alkyl groups bonded to the nitrogen atom.
17
Naming Amines Simple amines are named as alkylamines

21
Solution Consider the compounds below: 1. Which compound cannot form hydrogen bonds with other amines? CH3—CH2—CH2—CH3 C is an alkane, which cannot form hydrogen bonds with each other. 2. Which compound is not soluble in water? CH3—CH2—CH2—CH3 C is an alkane and therefore not soluble in water.
22
Neutralization Forms Amine Salts
An amine salt forms when amines such as those responsible the odor in fish are neutralized by acid such as citric acid in lemons is named by replacing the amine part of the name with ammonium, followed by the name of the negative ion
23
Neutralization Forms Amine Salts
24
Properties of Amine Salts
Amine salts are solids at room temperature soluble in water and body fluids the form used for drugs
25
Alkaloids Alkaloids are
physiologically active nitrogen-containing compounds produced by plants such as cocaine compounds that are alkali-like or have basic characteristics like amines used as anesthetics, as antidepressants, and in stimulants such as caffeine, and may be habit forming
26
Alkaloids: Cocaine Cocaine is extracted from plants by reacting them with hydrochloric acid and producing cocaine hydrochloride. When cocaine hydrochloride is treated with NaOH and ether it is called free-basing. This reaction produces “crack cocaine,” a free amine or free base of the amine.
27
Heterocyclic Amines A heterocyclic amine
is a cyclic compound that contains one or more nitrogen atoms in a ring typically consists of five or six atoms in the ring with one or more nitrogen atoms
28

Some Amides in Health and Medicine
Urea is the end product of protein metabolism. Saccharin is an artificial sweetener. Some amides, such as phenobarbital (Luminal) and pentobarbital (Nembutal), are barbiturates. Acetaminophen is used to reduce fever and pain.
39
Some Amides in Health and Medicine
40
Solubility of Amides Amides with one to five carbon atoms are soluble in water because they can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules. Hydrogen bonding effects are diminished when molecules have more than five carbon atoms, therefore reducing solubility.
41
Hydrolysis Reactions
42
Chapter 15 Lipids 15.1 Lipids
43
Lipids Lipids are biomolecules that contain fatty acids or a steroid nucleus soluble in organic solvents, but not in water named for the Greek word lipos, which means “fat” extracted from cells using organic solvents an important feature in cell membranes, fat-soluble vitamins, and steroid hormones
44
Types of Lipids There are different types of lipids. 1. Lipids such as waxes, fats, oils, and glycerophospholipids are esters that can be hydrolyzed to give fatty acids and alcohols. 2. Steroids are also lipids; they do not contain fatty acids and cannot be hydrolyzed. They are characterized by the steroid nucleus of four fused carbon rings.
45
General Structure of Lipids
Lipids are naturally occurring compounds that are soluble in organic solvents but not in water.
46
Learning Check There are two types of lipids, fatty acids and steroids. Which type is described by the following? A. contains a four-membered ring system B. contains long carbon chains C. includes triacylglycerols
47
Solution There are two types of lipids, fatty acids and steroids. Which type is described by the following? A. contains a four-membered ring system steroids B. contains long carbon chains fatty acids C. includes triacylglycerols fatty acids
48
Learning Check Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of lipids? A. may contain a carboxylic acid group B. may contain a four-ring structure C. soluble in water D. mostly nonpolar
49
Solution Which of the following is NOT a characteristic of lipids?
The answer is C. Lipids are nonpolar and therefore are NOT soluble in water.
50
Chapter 15 Lipids 15.2 Fatty Acids
51
Fatty Acids Fatty acids are long-chain carboxylic acids
typically 12–18 carbon atoms insoluble in water saturated or unsaturated Olive oil contains 84% unsaturated fatty acids and 16% saturated fatty acids.
52
Saturated and Unsaturated Fatty Acids
Fatty acids can be saturated, with all single C–C bonds monounsaturated, with one double C=C bond polyunsaturated, with more than one double C=C bond
53
Properties of Saturated Fatty Acids
contain only single C–C bonds and fit close together in a regular pattern have strong attractions between long carbon chains have higher melting points and are usually solids at room temperature
54
Properties of Saturated Fatty Acids
In saturated fatty acids, the molecules fit closely together to give high melting points.
55
Properties of Unsaturated Fatty Acids
contain one or more cis double C=C bonds have “kinks” in the fatty acid chains do not pack closely have few attractions between chains have low melting points are liquids at room temperature “kinks” in chain
56
Properties of Unsaturated Fatty Acids
In unsaturated fatty acids, molecules cannot fit closely together, resulting in lower melting points.
57
Melting Points of Some Saturated Fatty Acids
58
Melting Points of Some Unsaturated Fatty Acids
59
Learning Check stearic acid (18 carbons) saturated
Assign the melting points of –17 C, 13 C, and 69 C to the correct fatty acid. Explain. stearic acid (18 carbons) saturated oleic acid (18 carbons) one double bond linoleic acid (18 carbons) two double bonds
60
Solution Stearic acid is saturated and would have a higher melting point than the unsaturated fatty acids. Because linoleic has two double bonds, it would have a lower mp than oleic acid, which has one double bond. stearic acid mp 69 C saturated oleic acid mp 13 C linoleic acid mp –17 C most unsaturated
61
Prostaglandins Prostaglandins
are hormone-like substances produced in cells are also known as eicosanoids, formed from arachidonic acid, the polyunsaturated fatty acid with 20 carbon atoms differ by the substituents attached to the five-carbon ring have many functions, such as lower or raising blood pressure and stimulating contraction and relaxation of uterine smooth muscle
62
Prostaglandins When tissues are injured, arachidonic acid is converted to prostaglandins such as PGE and PGF that produce inflammation and pain in the area.
63
Prostaglandins: NSAIDs
The treatment of pain, fever, and inflammation is based on inhibiting the enzymes that convert arachidonic acid to prostaglandins.
64
Prostaglandins: NSAIDs
Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) block production of prostaglandins, decreasing pain and inflammation.
65
Omega-3 Fatty Acids Unsaturated fats such as those in vegetable oils and fish are recognized as more beneficial to health than saturated fats. Vegetables contain omega-6 acids, meaning the first double bond occurs at carbon 6. Examples of omega-6 acids are linoleic and arachidonic acids.
66
Omega-3 Fatty Acids Fish have high levels of omega-3 acids, meaning the first double bond occurs at carbon 3. Examples of omega-3 acids include linolenic, eicosapentaenoic, and docosahexaenoic acids. Cold-water fish are a source of omega-3 fatty acids.
67
Omega-3 and Omega-6 Fatty Acids
68
Chapter 15 Lipids 15.3 Waxes, Fats, and Oils
Waxes are esters of long-chain alcohols and fatty acids.
69
Waxes Waxes are esters of saturated fatty acids and long-chain alcohols coatings that prevent loss of water by leaves of plants
70
Fats and Oils: Triacylglycerols
Fats and oils are also called triacylglycerols esters of glycerol produced by esterification formed when the hydroxyl groups of glycerol react with the carboxyl groups of fatty acids
71
Triacylglycerols In a triacylglycerol, glycerol forms ester bonds with three fatty acids.
72
Formation of a Triacylglycerol
In a triacylglycerol, three hydroxyl groups on a glycerol molecule form ester bonds with the carboxyl groups of three fatty acids.
73
Melting Points of Fats and Oils
A fat is usually solid at room temperature is prevalent in meats, whole milk, butter, and cheese An oil is usually liquid at room temperature is prevalent in plants such as olive and safflower
74
Oils with Unsaturated Fatty Acids
have more unsaturated fats have cis double bonds that cause “kinks” in the fatty acid chains with “kinks” in the chains do not allow the triacylglycerol molecules to pack closely have lower melting points than saturated fatty acids are liquids at room temperature
75
Diagram of Triacylglycerol with Unsaturated Fatty Acids
Unsaturated fatty acid chains with kinks cannot pack closely.
76
Percent Saturated and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Fats and Oils
Vegetable oils have low melting points because they have a higher percentage of unsaturated fatty acids than do animal fats.
