This is a preview. There are 21 more flashcards available for chapter 1
Show more cards here -
Which suffix is used for aldehydes?
-al
-
How are aldehydes called in which the CHO group is directly bound to an ring?
carbaldehydes
-
How is a R-C=O group called?
acyl group
-
How can aldehydes be synthesized?
oxidation of primary alcohols
oxidative cleavage of alkenes with vinylic nitrogen using ozone
certain carboxylic acid derivates can be partially reduced to aldehydes
-
How can ketones be synthesized?
oxidation of secondary alcohols
oxidative cleavage of alkenes with disubstituted unsaturated carbon atom using ozone
Friedel-Crafts acylation of an aromatic ring with acid chloride in the presence of AlCl3
hydration of terminal alkynes in presence of Hg2+ catalyst
-
Why can aldehydes be oxidated, but ketones not?
aldehydes have a -CHO proton that can be abstracted
-
Which katalyst is mainly used for aldehyde-oxidation to yield carboxylic acids?
CrO3 in acidic medium
if less stable compounds are used, Tollens' reagent ( Ag2O in aqueous ) is a more common choice
-
Which intermediates are formed during aldehyde oxidation?
1,1-diols (or hydrates) with two OH groups at the C
-
How may ketones be oxidised?
very slowly with KMnO4, where the C-C bond next to the carbonyl group is broken, yielding carboxylic acids
-
How does the nucleophilic addition of aldehydes or ketones take place?
A nucleophil approaches the C
Rehybridization of the carbonyl from sp2 to sp3 occurs
An electron pair from the double bond adds to the O forming an alkoxide ion intermediate
Protonation from H3O+ gives an alkohol plus water
