1. 1435-1436 2014-2015 Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 1

2. Chapter nine introduces carboxylic acids and their derivatives. The chemistry is very similar to that of aldehydes and ketones because of the presence of the carbonyl group. The main topics in this chapter that the students should know and understand include:  The structure of carboxylic acids  The common and IUPAC nomenclature of carboxylic acids  The physical properties of carboxylic acids  The Factors affecting acidity of carboxylic acids.  The different ways to make carboxylic acids  Salt formation reactions of carboxylic acids  The nucleophilic substitution reactions at the carbonyl carbon and the specific products formed in each case.  The chemistry of carboxylic acid derivatives 2

3. Structure Of Carboxylic Acids  Carboxylic acids are organic acids contain one or more carboxyl group, which is a combination of carbonyl group C=O and hydroxyl group O-H  It is often written in condensed form as –CO 2 H or –COOH Carboxylic acids are classified as aliphatic R-COOH or aromatic Ar-COOH depending on the group bonded to the carboxylic group.  The simplest acid is formic acid R= H  The fatty acid is long chain aliphatic acids CH 3 -(CH 2 ) 16 -COOH Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 3

4. Nomenclature Of Carboxylic Acids  Some carboxylic acids are called after characteristic properties or their origin.  All common names ending -ic acid Formula Common name origin of name HCOOH formic acid Latin for ant CH 3 COOH acetic acid Latin for vinegar CH 3 CH 2 COOH propionic acid Greek for milk CH 3 (CH 2 ) 2 COOH butyric acid Latin for butter CH 3 (CH 2 ) 3 COOH valeric acid valerian root Common Nomenclature  The positions of the carbons present on the acid chain, are located by the Greek letters α indicating the carbon atom next to COOH group (C2), β (C3), etc. 5 4 3 2 1 -C—C—C—C—COOH δ γ β α Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 4

5.  Some aromatic acids have common names Succinic acid  Example of dicarboxylic acids Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 5

6. IUPAC Nomenclature  Find the longest continuous carbon chain contains the COOH group to get the root name of the parent hydrocarbon, then replace the ending -e by the suffix – oic acid.  Number the chain starting with the carbon of COOH group as C-1  If there are substituents identify their names, positions and list them as prefixes in alphabetical order. Examples: (CH 3 ) 2 CH - CH(CH 3 ) - CH 2 - CH 2 - COOH Examples: (CH 3 ) 2 CH - CH(CH 3 ) - CH 2 - CH 2 - COOH is called 4,5-Dimethylhexanoic acid Butanoic acid Pentanoic acid Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 6

7.  Cyclic compounds containing one or more COOH groups attached to the ring are named by identifying the name of the ring followed by the word carboxylic acid or dicarboxylic acids etc. The carbon atom bearing the carboxylic group is numbered 1 and the substituents are numbered relative to it. 1,4-Butandioic acid 3-Bromo-2-hydroxy-4-hexenoic acid 3-Aminobutanoic acid Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 7

8.   Some aromatic compounds have common names accepted by the IUPAC also they can be named as benzene carboxylic acids Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 8

9. Physical Properties OF Carboxylic Acids Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 1) Boiling Points :  Carboxylic acids have exceptionally high boiling points than alcohols of identical relative molecular masses, For example: M.F. M.Wbp / °C Propanol C 3 H 8 O60.01 97.2 Ethanoic acid C 2 H 4 O 2 60.05 118 Carboxylic acids have higher boiling points than alcohols and aldehydes, because their dimeric structures. Hydrogen-bonded acid dimer 9

10. Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives Solubility 2) Solubility  Carboxylic acids are polar, they can form hydrogen bonds with water molecules   The first four aliphatic acids are completely miscible in water. Higher members are less soluble   Aromatic acids are insoluble in water 10

11. 3) Acid Strength compared to alcohols and phenols  Carboxylic acids are stronger acids compared to alcohols and phenols substituents near the carboxyl group the acidity  Electron withdrawing substituents near the carboxyl group increase the acidity  Whereas substituents the acidity.  Whereas electron donating substituents decrease the acidity.  HCOOH > CH 3 COOH > CH 3 CH 2 COOH > CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 COOH( size of R group)  HCOOH > CH 3 COOH > CH 3 CH 2 COOH > CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 COOH ( size of R group) ( number of e.w.g.)  Cl 3 CCOOH > Cl 2 CHCOOH > ClCH 2 COOH > CH 3 COOH ( number of e.w.g.) ( position of e.w.g. relative to COOH group) CH 3 CH 2 CH 2 CH(Cl)COOH > CH 3 CH 2 CH(Cl)CH 2 COOH > CH 3 CH(Cl)CH 2 CH 2 COOH > CH 2 (Cl)CH 2 CH 2 CH 2 COOH ( position of e.w.g. relative to COOH group) Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 11

Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Acid Chloride Ester Amide Acid anhydride Carboxylic Acids And Their Derivatives 16  The derivatives of carboxylic acids are compounds in which the -OH of carboxylic acid is replaced by nucleopile (-X for acid halide, -OR for ester, -NH 2, -NHR, -NR 2 for amids, - OOCR for anhydride).  Carboxylic acids derivatives can converted to carboxylic acids by simple acidic or basic hydrolysis.
