Chapter 1 Structure and Bonding Chapter Review Important facts •

X = F, Cl, Br, I

The sum (# of bonds + # of lone pairs) = 4 for all elements except H.



Formal charge (FC) is the difference between the number of valence electrons on an atom and the number of electrons it “owns” (Section 1.3C). See Sample Problem 1.3 for a stepwise example.

Definition: Examples:

C

• C shares 8 electrons. • C "owns" 4 electrons. • FC = 0

C

• C shares 6 electrons. • C "owns" 3 electrons. • FC = +1

C

• C shares 6 electrons. • C has 2 unshared electrons. • C "owns" 5 electrons. • FC = −1

Curved arrow notation shows the movement of an electron pair. The tail of the arrow always begins at an electron pair, either in a bond or a lone pair. The head points to where the electron pair “moves” (Section 1.6). Move an electron pair to O.

Chapter 1–2

The importance of Lewis structures (Sections 1.3–1.5) A properly drawn Lewis structure shows the number of bonds and lone pairs present around each atom in a molecule. In a valid Lewis structure, each H has two electrons, and each second-row element has no more than eight. This is the first step needed to determine many properties of a molecule. Geometry

[linear, trigonal planar, or tetrahedral] (Section 1.7)

Hybridization

Lewis structure

Types of bonds

[sp, sp2, or sp3] (Section 1.9) [single, double, or triple] (Sections 1.3, 1.10)

Resonance (Section 1.6) The basic principles: • Resonance occurs when a compound cannot be represented by a single Lewis structure. • Two resonance structures differ only in the position of nonbonded electrons and π bonds. • The resonance hybrid is the only accurate representation for a resonance-stabilized compound. A hybrid is more stable than any single resonance structure because electron density is delocalized. O

5.68 Allenes contain an sp hybridized carbon atom doubly bonded to two other carbons. This makes the double bonds of an allene perpendicular to each other. When each end of the allene has two like substituents, the allene contains two planes of symmetry and it is achiral. When each end of the allene has two different groups, the allene has no plane of symmetry and it becomes chiral.

6.7 Use the following relationships to answer the questions: If Keq = 1, then G° = 0; if Keq > 1, then G° < 0; if Keq < 1, then G° > 0. a. A negative value of G° means the equilibrium favors the product and Keq is > 1. Therefore, Keq = 1000 is the answer. b. A lower value of G° means a larger value of Keq, and the products are more favored. Keq = 10–2 is larger than Keq = 10–5, so G° is lower.

6.8 Use the relationships from Answer 6.7. a. Keq = 5.5. Keq > 1 means that the equilibrium favors the product. b. G° = 40 kJ/mol. A positive G° means the equilibrium favors the starting material. 6.9 When the product is lower in energy than the starting material, the equilibrium favors the product. When the starting material is lower in energy than the product, the equilibrium favors the starting material. a. G° is positive, so the equilibrium favors the starting material. Therefore the starting material is lower in energy than the product. b. Keq is > 1, so the equilibrium favors the product. Therefore the product is lower in energy than the starting material. c. G° is negative, so the equilibrium favors the product. Therefore the product is lower in energy than the starting material. d. Keq is < 1, so the equilibrium favors the starting material. Therefore the starting material is lower in energy than the product. 6.10 H H

f. The Keq for tert-butylcyclohexane is much higher because the tert-butyl group is bulkier than the other groups. With a tert-butyl group, a CH3 group is always oriented over the ring when the group is axial, creating severe 1,3-diaxial interactions. With all other substituents, the larger CH3 groups can be oriented away from the ring, placing a H over the ring, making the 1,3-diaxial interactions less severe. Compare: tert-butylcyclohexane

True: Increasing temperature increases reaction rate. True: If a reaction is fast, then it has a large rate constant. False: Corrected—There is no relationship between G° and reaction rate. False: Corrected—When the Ea is large, the rate constant is small. False: Corrected—There is no relationship between Keq and reaction rate. False: Corrected—Increasing the concentration of a reactant increases the rate of a reaction only if the reactant appears in the rate equation.

6.51 a. The first mechanism has one step: Rate = k[(CH3)3CI][–OH] b. The second mechanism has two steps, but only the first step would be in the rate equation, because it is slow and therefore rate-determining: Rate = k[(CH3)3CI] c. Possibility [1] is second order; possibility [2] is first order. d. These rate equations can be used to show which mechanism is plausible by changing the concentration of –OH.

6.52 The difference in both the acidity and the bond dissociation energy of CH3CH3 versus HC≡CH is due to the same factor: percent s-character. The difference results because one process is based on homolysis and one is based on heterolysis. Bond dissociation energy: CH3CH2 H

sp hybridized 50% s-character Higher percent s-character makes this bond shorter and stronger.

This means the bond dissociation energy for C–Ha is lower. 6.55 In Reaction [1], the number of molecules of reactants and products stays the same, so entropy is not a factor. In Reaction [2], a single molecule of starting material forms two molecules of products, so entropy increases. This makes G° more favorable, thus increasing Keq. 6.56 O CH3

Alkyl Halides and Nucleophilic Substitution 7–1

Chapter 7 Alkyl Halides and Nucleophilic Substitution Chapter Review General facts about alkyl halides • • • •

Alkyl halides contain a halogen atom X bonded to an sp3 hybridized carbon (7.1). Alkyl halides are named as halo alkanes, with the halogen as a substituent (7.2). Alkyl halides have a polar C–X bond, so they exhibit dipole–dipole interactions but are incapable of intermolecular hydrogen bonding (7.3). The polar C–X bond containing an electrophilic carbon makes alkyl halides reactive towards nucleophiles and bases (7.5).

The central theme (7.6) •

Nucleophilic substitution is one of the two main reactions of alkyl halides. A nucleophile replaces a leaving group on an sp3 hybridized carbon. R X

Important principles



Principle Electron-donating groups (such as R groups) stabilize a positive charge (7.14A).



Example 3 arbocations (R3C+) are more stable than 2o arbocations (R2CH+), which are more stable than 1o carbocations (RCH2+). o



Steric hindrance decreases nucleophilicity but not basicity (7.8B).



(CH3)3CO– is a stronger base but a weaker nucleophile than CH3CH2O–.



Hammond postulate: In an endothermic reaction, the more stable product is formed faster. In an exothermic reaction, this fact is not necessarily true (7.15).



SN1 reactions are faster when more stable (more substituted) carbocations are formed, because the rate-determining step is endothermic.



Planar, sp2 hybridized atoms react with reagents from both sides of the plane (7.13C).



A trigonal planar carbocation reacts with nucleophiles from both sides of the plane.

7.6 a. Because an sp2 hybridized C has a higher percent s-character than an sp3 hybridized C, it holds electron density closer to C. This pulls a little more electron density towards C, away from Cl, and thus a Csp2–Cl bond is less polar than a Csp3–Cl bond. b.

c. The weak nucleophile favors an SN1 reaction, which occurs by way of an intermediate carbocation.

The Br– would then shield one side of the carbocation and backside attack would be slightly favored.

Alkene A is more stable than alkene B because the double bond in A is in a six-membered ring. The double bond in B is in a four-membered ring, which has considerable angle strain due to the small ring size. 8.8 In an E2 mechanism, four bonds are involved in the single step. Use curved arrows to show these simultaneous actions: [1] The base attacks a hydrogen on a β carbon. [2] A π bond forms. [3] The leaving group comes off. CH3CH2 H CH3CH2 C Br

The dehydrohalogenation of an alkyl halide usually forms the more stable alkene. In this case, A is more stable than B even though A contains a disubstituted C=C whereas B contains a trisubstituted C=C. The double bond in B is part of a three-membered ring, and is less stable than A because of severe angle strain around both C’s of the double bond.

8.46 With the strong base –OCH2CH3, the mechanism is E2, whereas with dilute base, the mechanism is E1. E2 elimination proceeds with anti periplanar arrangement of H and X. In the E1 mechanism there is no requirement for elimination to proceed with anti periplanar geometry. In this case the major product is always the most stable, more substituted alkene. Thus, C is the major product under E1 conditions. (In Chapter 9, we will learn that additional elimination products may form in the E1 reaction due to carbocation rearrangement.) Cl OCH2CH3

Since this is an E2 mechanism, dehydrohalogenation needs an anti periplanar H to form the double bond. There is only one H trans to Cl, so the disubstituted alkene B must form.

The H’s on the CH2 group of the β2 carbon are more sterically hindered than the H’s on the CH3 group of the β1 carbon. Since K+ –OC(CH3)3 is a much bulkier base than Na+ –OCH2CH3, it is easier to remove the more accessible H on β1, giving it a higher percentage of 1-butene. 8.48 H and Br must be anti during the E2 elimination.

Both SN1 and E1 involve carbocation intermediates. Both SN1 and E1 have two steps. SN1, SN2, E1, and E2 all have increased reaction rates with better leaving groups. Both SN2 and E2 have increased rates when changing from CH3OH (a protic solvent) to (CH3)2SO (an aprotic solvent). In SN1 and E1 reactions, the rate depends on only the alkyl halide concentration. Both SN2 and E2 are concerted reactions. CH3CH2Br and NaOH react by an SN2 mechanism. Racemization occurs in SN1 reactions. In SN1, E1, and E2 mechanisms, 3° alkyl halides react faster than 1° or 2° halides. E2 and SN2 reactions follow second-order rate equations.

b. The bulky tert-butyl group anchors the cyclohexane ring and occupies the more roomy equatorial position. The cis isomer has the Br atom axial, while the trans isomer has the Br atom equatorial. For dehydrohalogenation to occur on a halo cyclohexane, the halogen must be axial to afford trans diaxial elimination of H and X. The cis isomer readily reacts since the Br atom is axial. The only way for the trans isomer to react is for the six-membered ring to flip into a highly unstable conformation having both (CH3)3C and Br axial. Thus, the trans isomer reacts much more slowly.

Use two numbers to designate which two atoms the oxygen is bonded to. [3] Epoxides can be named as alkene oxides by mentally replacing the epoxide oxygen by a double bond. Name the alkene (Chapter 10) and add the word oxide.

9.8 Two rules for boiling point: [1] The stronger the forces the higher the bp. [2] Bp increases as the extent of the hydrogen bonding increases. For alcohols with the same number of carbon atoms: hydrogen bonding and bp’s increase: 3° ROH < 2° ROH < 1° ROH. CH3

9.9 Strong nucleophiles (like –CN) favor SN2 reactions. The use of crown ethers in nonpolar solvents increases the nucleophilicity of the anion, and this increases the rate of the SN2 reaction. The nucleophile does not appear in the rate equation for the SN1 reaction. Nonpolar solvents cannot solvate carbocations, so this disfavors SN1 reactions as well. 9.10 Draw the products of substitution in the following reactions by substituting OH or OR for X in the starting material. a.

9.31 Ether cleavage can occur by either an SN1 or SN2 mechanism, but neither mechanism can occur when the ether O atom is bonded to an aromatic ring. An SN1 reaction would require formation of a highly unstable carbocation on a benzene ring, a process that does not occur. An SN2 reaction would require backside attack through the plane of the aromatic ring, which is also not possible. Thus, cleavage of the Ph–OCH3 bond does not occur. OCH3

9.44 Melting points depend on intermolecular forces and symmetry. (CH3)2CHCH2OH has a lower melting point than CH3CH2CH2CH2OH because branching decreases surface area and makes (CH3)2CHCH2OH less symmetrical so it packs less well. Although (CH3)3COH has the most branching and least surface area, it is the most symmetrical, so it packs best in a crystalline lattice, giving it the highest melting point. OH

9.45 Stronger intermolecular forces increase boiling point. All of the compounds can hydrogen bond, but both diols have more opportunity for hydrogen bonding since they have two OH groups, making their bp’s higher than the bp of 1-butanol. 1,2-Propanediol can also intramolecularly hydrogen bond. Intramolecular hydrogen bonding decreases the amount of intermolecular hydrogen bonding, so the bp of 1,2-propanediol is somewhat lower. Increasing boiling point OH

9.54 With POCl3 (pyridine), elimination occurs by an E2 mechanism. Since only one carbon has a β hydrogen, only one product is formed. With H2SO4, the mechanism of elimination is E1. A 2° carbocation rearranges to a 3° carbocation, which has three pathways for elimination.

9.69 First, use the names to draw the structures of the starting material and both products. Because the product has two OH groups, one OH must come from the epoxide oxygen, and one must come from the nucleophile, either –OH or H2O. With –OH, the nucleophile attacks at the less substituted end of the epoxide to form the R isomer of the product.

9.76 With the cis isomer, –OH acts as a nucleophile to displace Br– from the back side, forming a trans diol (A). With the trans isomer, the two functional groups are arranged in a manner that allows an intramolecular SN2. –OH removes a proton to form an alkoxide, which can then displace Br– by intramolecular backside attack to afford an ether (B). Such a reaction is not possible with the cis isomer because the nucleophile and leaving group are on the same side.

10.71 Having two rings joined together as in A and B creates a very rigid ring system and constrains bond angles. Evidently the bond angles around the C=C in A are close enough to the trigonal planar bond angle of 120° so that A is stable. With B, however, the C=C is located at a carbon shared by both rings and the bond angles around the C=C deviate greatly from the desired angle, so that B is not a stable compound.

Alkynes are named using the suffix -yne (11.2). Alkynes have weak intermolecular forces, giving them low mp’s and low bp’s, and making them water insoluble (11.3). Since its weaker π bonds make an alkyne electron rich, alkynes undergo addition reactions with electrophiles (11.6).

11.50 A carbanion is more stable when its lone pair is in an orbital with a higher percentage of the smaller s orbital. A carbocation is more stable when its positive charge is due to a vacant orbital with a lower percentage of the smaller s orbital. In HC≡C+, the positively charged C uses two p orbitals to form two π bonds. If the σ bond is formed using an sp hybrid orbital, the second hybrid orbital would have to remain vacant, a highly unstable situation. HC C

11.62 Two resonance structures can be drawn for an enol. OH

OH

negative charge on C that is part of the enol C=C

Since the second resonance structure places an electron pair (and therefore a negative charge) on an enol carbon, this makes the C=C more nucleophilic than the C=C of an alkene for which no additional resonance forms can be drawn. Thus, the OH group donates electron density to the C=C by a resonance effect.

11.66 A more stable internal alkyne can be isomerized to a less stable terminal alkyne under these reaction conditions because when CH3CH2C≡CH is first formed, it contains an sp hybridized C–H bond, which is more acidic than any proton in CH3–C≡C–CH3. Under the reaction conditions, this proton is removed with base. Formation of the resulting acetylide anion drives the equilibrium to favor its formation. Protonation of this acetylide anion gives the less stable terminal alkyne.

The by-products of the reaction with sodium hypochlorite are water and table salt (NaCl), as opposed to the by-products with HCrO4–– Amberlyst A-26 resin, which contain carcinogenic Cr3+ metal.

Oxidation with NaOCl has at least two advantages over oxidation with CrO3, H2SO4 and H2O. Since no Cr6+ is used as oxidant, there are no Cr by-products that must be disposed of. Also, CrO3 oxidation is carried out in corrosive inorganic acids (H2SO4) and oxidation with NaOCl avoids this.

Increasing acidity

Inductive effects. Acidity increases with the presence of electron-withdrawing groups (like the electronegative halogens) and decreases with the presence of electron-donating groups (like polarizable alkyl groups) (19.10).

Other facts x Extraction is a useful technique for separating compounds having different solubility properties. Carboxylic acids can be separated from other organic compounds by extraction, because aqueous base converts a carboxylic acid into a water-soluble carboxylate anion (19.12). x A sulfonic acid (RSO3H) is a strong acid because it forms a weak, resonance-stabilized conjugate base on deprotonation (19.13). x Amino acids have an amino group on the D carbon to the carboxy group [RCH(NH2)COOH]. Amino acids exist as zwitterions at pH | 6. Adding acid forms a species with a net (+1) charge [RCH(NH3)COOH]+. Adding base forms a species with a net (–1) charge [RCH(NH2)COO]– (19.14).

In this case the more nucleophilic O atom is the stronger base—that is, the alkoxide derived from the alcohol (not the phenoxide), so this negatively charged O atom reacts first in a nucleophilic substitution reaction.

Ha and He must be the two most acidic protons since they are part of carboxylic acids. Loss of a proton forms a resonance-stabilized carboxylate anion that has the negative charge delocalized on two O atoms. Ha is more acidic than He because the nearby OH group on the D carbon increases acidity by an electron-withdrawing inductive effect. Hb is the next most acidic proton because the conjugate base places a negative charge on the electronegative O atom, but it is not resonance stabilized. The least acidic H’s are Hc and Hd since these H’s are bonded to C atoms. The electronegative O atom further acidifies Hc by an electron-withdrawing inductive effect.

20.49 Three carbons bear a δ+ because they are bonded to electronegative O atoms. C3 O

O

C1

C1 is an sp3 hybridized C bonded to an O so it bears a δ+. There are no additional resonance structures that affect C1. C2 is part of a carbonyl that has three resonance structures, only one of which places a (+) charge on C. The O atom of the ester donates its electron pair, making the carbonyl C less electrophilic than C3. C3 is most electrophilic. Its carbonyl is stabilized by two resonance structures, one of which places a (+) charge on carbon.

20.52 Since a Grignard reagent contains a carbon atom with a partial negative charge, it acts as a base and reacts with the OH of the starting halide, BrCH2CH2CH2CH2OH. This acid–base reaction destroys the Grignard reagent so that addition cannot occur. To get around this problem, the OH group can be protected as a tert-butyldimethylsilyl ether, from which a Grignard reagent can be made. basic site Br

20.53 Compounds F, G, and K are all alcohols with aromatic rings so there will be many similarities in their proton NMR spectra. These compounds will, however, show differences in absorptions due to the CH protons on the carbon bearing the OH group. F has a CH2OH group, which will give a singlet in the 3–4 ppm region of the spectrum. G is a 3o alcohol that has no protons on the C bonded to the OH group so it will have no peak in the 3–4 ppm region of the spectrum. K is a 2o alcohol that will give a doublet in the 3–4 ppm region of the spectrum for the CH proton on the carbon with the OH group.

L-Selectride adds H– to a C=O group. There are two possible reduction products—cis and trans isomers— but the cis isomer is favored. The key element is that the three sec-butyl groups make L-selectride a large, bulky reducing agent that attacks the carbonyl group from the less hindered direction. O– O (CH3)3C

When H– adds from the equatorial direction, the product has an axial OH and a new equatorial H. Since the equatorial direction is less hindered, this mode of attack is favored with large bulky reducing agents like L-selectride. In this case, the product is cis.

20.80 The β carbon of an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound absorbs farther downfield in the 13C NMR spectrum than the α carbon, because the β carbon is deshielded and bears a partial positive charge as a result of resonance. Since three resonance structures can be drawn for an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl compound, one of which places a positive charge on the β carbon, the decrease of electron density at this carbon deshields it, shifting the 13C absorption downfield. This is not the case for the α carbon. 122.5 ppm O

Aldehydes and Ketones—Nucleophilic Addition 21–1

Chapter 21 Aldehydes and Ketones—Nucleophilic Addition Chapter Review General facts • Aldehydes and ketones contain a carbonyl group bonded to only H atoms or R groups. The carbonyl carbon is sp2 hybridized and trigonal planar (21.1). • Aldehydes are identified by the suffix -al, while ketones are identified by the suffix -one (21.2). • Aldehydes and ketones are polar compounds that exhibit dipole–dipole interactions (21.3). Summary of spectroscopic absorptions of RCHO and R2CO (21.4) C=O ~1715 cm–1 for ketones IR absorptions • increasing frequency with decreasing ring size ~1730 cm–1 for aldehydes • For both RCHO and R2CO, the frequency decreases with conjugation.

Chapter 21–8

Even though both compounds have polar C–O bonds, the electron pairs around the sp3 hybridized O atom of diethyl ether are more crowded and less able to interact with electron-deficient sites in other diethyl ether molecules. The O atom of the carbonyl group of 2-butanone extends out from the carbon chain, making it less crowded. The lone pairs of electrons on the O atom can more readily interact with the electron-deficient sites in the other molecules, resulting in stronger forces and a higher boiling point.

21.8

O O

2-butanone

For cyclic ketones, the carbonyl absorption shifts to higher wavenumber as the size of the ring decreases and the ring strain increases. Conjugation of the carbonyl group with a C=C or a benzene ring shifts the absorption to lower wavenumber.

H O

The aldehyde is destabilized since there is a δ+ on its adjacent carbon, which is part of a C=O. Thus, PhCOCHO has the higher concentration of hydrate. 21.56 Electron-donating groups decrease the amount of hydrate at equilibrium by stabilizing the carbonyl starting material. Electron-withdrawing groups increase the amount of hydrate at equilibrium by destabilizing the carbonyl starting material. Electron-donating groups make the IR absorption of the C=O shift to lower wavenumber because they stabilize the chargeseparated resonance form, giving the C=O more single bond character.

These three resonance structures include an aromatic ring; 4n + 2 = 2 π electrons. Although they are charge separated, the stabilized aromatic ring makes these three structures contribute to the hybrid more than usual. Since these three resonance contributors have a C–O single bond, the absorption is shifted to a lower wavenumber.

There are three resonance structures for 2-cyclohexenone, but the charge-separated resonance structures are not aromatic so they contribute less to the resonance hybrid. The C=O absorbs in the usual region for a conjugated carbonyl.

Carboxylic Acids and Their Derivatives—Nucleophilic Acyl Substitution 22–1

Chapter 22 Carboxylic Acids and Their Derivatives—Nucleophilic Acyl Substitution Chapter Review Summary of spectroscopic absorptions of RCOZ (22.5) IR absorptions • All RCOZ compounds have a C=O absorption in the region 1600–1850 cm–1. • RCOCl: 1800 cm–1 • (RCO)2O: 1820 and 1760 cm–1 (two peaks) • RCOOR': 1735–1745 cm–1 • RCONR'2: 1630–1680 cm–1 • Additional amide absorptions occur at 3200–3400 cm–1 (N–H stretch) and 1640 cm–1 (N–H bending). • Decreasing the ring size of a cyclic lactone, lactam, or anhydride increases the frequency of the C=O absorption. • Conjugation shifts the C=O to lower wavenumber. 1 H NMR absorptions • C–H α to the C=O absorbs at 2–2.5 ppm. • N–H of an amide absorbs at 7.5–8.5 ppm. •

General features of nucleophilic acyl substitution • The characteristic reaction of compounds having the general structure RCOZ is nucleophilic acyl substitution (22.1). • The mechanism consists of two steps (22.7A): [1] Addition of a nucleophile to form a tetrahedral intermediate [2] Elimination of a leaving group • More reactive acyl compounds can be used to prepare less reactive acyl compounds. The reverse is not necessarily true (22.7B).

The basicity of Z determines how much this structure contributes to the hybrid. Br– is less basic than –OH, so RCOBr is less stable than RCOOH.

This resonance structure contributes little to the hybrid since Cl– is a weak base. Thus, the C–Cl bond has little double bond character, making it similar in length to the C–Cl bond in CH3Cl. This resonance structure contributes more to the hybrid since –NH2 is more basic. Thus, the C–N bond in HCONH2 has more double bond character, making it shorter than the C–N bond in CH3NH2.

22.25 Aspirin has an ester, a more reactive acyl group, whereas acetaminophen has an amide, a less reactive acyl group. a. The ester makes aspirin more easily hydrolyzed with water from the air than acetaminophen. Therefore, Tylenol can be kept for many years, whereas aspirin decomposes. b. Similarly, aspirin will be hydrolyzed and decompose in the aqueous medium of a liquid medication, but acetaminophen is stable due to the less reactive amide group, allowing it to remain unchanged while dissolved in H2O. ester O

This resonance structure does not contribute significantly to the hybrid because it places a double bond at the bridgehead N, an impossible geometry in small rings. The C=O has more double bond character, so the absorption is at a higher wavenumber. This resonance structure contributes significantly to the hybrid, so the C=O has more single bond character.

Intramolecular esterification forms a lactone (Steps [10]–[15]), followed by conversion of a carbonyl tautomer to an enol (Steps [16]–[17]). Both acetals are hydrolyzed at once in the given mechanism.

ester The O atom of the ester OR group donates electron density by a resonance effect. The resulting resonance structure keeps a negative charge on the less electronegative C end of the enolate.

b. The protons on C6 are more acidic than other sp3 hybridized C–H bonds because a highly resonance-stabilized carbanion is formed when a proton is removed. One resonance structure places a negative charge on the carbonyl O atom. This makes the protons on C6 similar in acidity to the α H’s to a carbonyl. c.

This reaction is an acid-catalyzed aldol that proceeds by way of enols not enolates. The β-hydroxy ketone initially formed cannot dehydrate to form an α,β-unsaturated carbonyl because there is no H on the α carbon. Thus, dehydration occurs, but the resulting C=C is not conjugated with the C=O. O

This H is now more acidic because it is located between two carbonyl groups. As a result, it is the most readily removed proton for the Michael reaction in the next step.

Chapter 25 Amines Chapter Review General facts • Amines are organic nitrogen compounds having the general structure RNH2, R2NH, or R3N, with a lone pair of electrons on N (25.1). • Amines are named using the suffix -amine (25.3). • All amines have polar C–N bonds. Primary (1°) and 2° amines have polar N–H bonds and are capable of intermolecular hydrogen bonding (25.4). • The lone pair on N makes amines strong organic bases and nucleophiles (25.8). Summary of spectroscopic absorptions (25.5) Molecular ion Amines with an odd number of N atoms give an odd molecular ion. Mass spectra IR absorptions N–H

Comparing the basicity of amines and other compounds (25.10) • Alkylamines (RNH2, R2NH, and R3N) are more basic than NH3 because of the electron-donating R groups (25.10A). • Alkylamines (RNH2) are more basic than arylamines (C6H5NH2), which have a delocalized lone pair from the N atom (25.10B). • Arylamines with electron-donor groups are more basic than arylamines with electronwithdrawing groups (25.10B). • Alkylamines (RNH2) are more basic than amides (RCONH2), which have a delocalized lone pair from the N atom (25.10C). • Aromatic heterocycles with a localized electron pair on N are more basic than those with a delocalized lone pair from the N atom (25.10D). • Alkylamines with a lone pair in an sp3 hybrid orbital are more basic than those with a lone pair in an sp2 hybrid orbital (25.10E).

25.48 The electron-withdrawing inductive effect of the phenyl group stabilizes benzylamine, making its conjugate acid more acidic than the conjugate acid of cyclohexanamine. The conjugate acid of aniline is more acidic than the conjugate acid of benzylamine, since loss of a proton generates a resonance-stabilized amine, C6H5NH2. NH3

Order of basicity: Nb < Na < Nc Nb – The electron pair on this N atom is delocalized on the aromatic five-membered ring; least basic. Na – The electron pair on this N atom is not delocalized, but is on an sp2 hybridized atom. Nc – The electron pair on this N atom is on an sp3 hybridized N; most basic.

25.51 The para isomer is the weaker base because the electron pair on its NH2 group can be delocalized onto the NO2 group. In the meta isomer, no resonance structure places the electron pair on the NO2 group, and fewer resonance structures can be drawn:

25.87 The compound with the most available electron pair or the compound with the highest electron density on an atom (N in this case) is the strongest base. Pyrrole is the weakest base because its lone pair is delocalized on the five-membered ring to make it aromatic. Both imidazole and thiazole contain sp2 hybridized N atoms with electron pairs that are localized on N. Imidazole is a stronger base than thiazole, because its second N atom is more basic than thiazole’s S atom, so it places more electron density on N by a resonance effect. N

Answers to Problems 27.1

Use the following definitions: • An electrocyclic ring closure is an intramolecular reaction that forms a cyclic product containing one more σ bond and one fewer π bond than the reactant. An electrocyclic ring opening is a reaction in which a σ bond of a cyclic reactant is cleaved to form a conjugated product with one more π bond. • A cycloaddition is a reaction between two compounds with π bonds that forms a cyclic product with two new σ bonds. • A sigmatropic rearrangement is a reaction in which a σ bond is broken in the reactant, the π bonds rearrange, and a σ bond is formed in the product. electrocyclic reaction

Summary of methods used for peptide sequencing (29.6) • Complete hydrolysis of all amide bonds in a peptide gives the identity and amount of the individual amino acids. • Edman degradation identifies the N-terminal amino acid. Repeated Edman degradations can be used to sequence a peptide from the N-terminal end. • Cleavage with carboxypeptidase identifies the C-terminal amino acid. • Partial hydrolysis of a peptide forms smaller fragments that can be sequenced. Amino acid sequences common to smaller fragments can be used to determine the sequence of the complete peptide. • Selective cleavage of a peptide occurs with trypsin and chymotrypsin to identify the location of specific amino acids (Table 29.2).

In an amino acid, the electron-withdrawing carboxy group destabilizes the ammonium ion (–NH3+), making it more readily donate a proton; that is, it makes it a stronger acid. Also, the electron-withdrawing carboxy group removes electron density from the amino group (–NH2) of the conjugate base, making it a weaker base than a 1o amine, which has no electron-withdrawing group.

29.27 a. The R group for glycine is a hydrogen. The R groups must be small to allow the β-pleated sheets to stack on top of each other. With large R groups, steric hindrance prevents stacking. b. Silk fibers are water insoluble because most of the polar functional groups are in the interior of the stacked sheets. The β-pleated sheets are stacked one on top of another, so few polar functional groups are available for hydrogen bonding to water. 29.28 H CH2C6H5 H2N

c. The pKa of the COOH of the tripeptide is higher than the pKa of the COOH group of alanine, making it less acidic. This occurs because the COOH group in the tripeptide is farther away from the –NH3+ group. The positively charged –NH3+ group stabilizes the negatively charged carboxylate anion of alanine more than the carboxylate anion of the tripeptide because it is so much closer in alanine. The opposite effect is observed with the ionization of the –NH3+ group. In alanine, the –NH3+ is closer to the COO– group, so it is more difficult to lose a proton, resulting in a higher pKa. In the tripeptide, the –NH3+ is farther away from the COO–, so it is less affected by its presence.

29.67 a. A p-nitrophenyl ester activates the carboxy group of the first amino acid to amide formation by converting the OH group into a good leaving group, the p-nitrophenoxide group, which is highly resonance stabilized. In this case the electron-withdrawing NO2 group further stabilizes the leaving group. O

b. The p-methoxyphenyl ester contains an electron-donating OCH3 group, making CH3OC6H4O– a poorer leaving group than NO2C6H4O–, so this ester does not activate the amino acid to amide formation as much.

Eicosapentaenoic acid has 20 C’s and 5 C=C’s. Since an increasing number of double bonds decreases the melting point, eicosapentaenoic acid should have a melting point lower than arachidonic acid; that is, < –49 °C.

This compound is less suitable than either nylon 6,6 or PET for use in consumer products because esters are more easily hydrolyzed than amides, so this polyester is less stable than the polyamide nylon. This polyester has more flexible chains than PET, and this translates into a less strong fiber.

31.22 Chemical recycling of HDPE and LDPE is not easily done because these polymers are both long chains of CH2 groups joined together in a linear fashion. Since there are only C–C bonds and no functional groups in the polymer chain, there are no easy methods to convert the polymers to their monomers. This process is readily accomplished only when the polymer backbone contains hydrolyzable functional groups. 31.23 a. b. c. d.

Combustion of polyethylene forms CO2 + H2O. Combustion of polyethylene terephthalate forms CO2 + H2O. These reactions are exothermic. HDPE and PET must be separated from poly(vinyl chloride) prior to incineration because combustion of hydrocarbons (like HDPE) and oxygen-containing organics (like PET) releases only CO2 + H2O into the atmosphere. Poly(vinyl chloride) also contains Cl atoms bonded to a hydrocarbon chain. On combustion this forms HCl, which cannot be released directly into the atmosphere, making incineration of halogen-containing polymers more laborious and more expensive.

a. Polyester A has a lower Tg and Tm than PET because its polymer chain is more flexible. There are no rigid benzene rings, so the polymer is less ordered. b. Polyester A has a lower Tg and Tm than nylon 6,6 because the N–H bonds of nylon 6,6 allow chains to hydrogen bond to each other, which makes the polymer more ordered. c. The Tm for Kevlar would be higher than that of nylon 6,6, because in addition to extensive hydrogen bonding between chains, each chain contains rigid benzene rings. This results in a more ordered polymer. 31.39 O

Diester A is often used as a plasticizer in place of dibutyl phthalate because it has a higher molecular weight, giving it a higher boiling point. A should therefore be less volatile than dibutyl phthalate, so it should evaporate from a polymer less readily.

This carbocation is unstable because it is located next to an electron-withdrawing CN group that bears a δ+ on its C atom. This carbocation is difficult to form, so CH2=CHCN is only slowly polymerized under cationic conditions.

This 2° carbocation is more stable because it is not directly bonded to the electron-withdrawing CN group. As a result, it is more readily formed. Thus, cationic polymerization can occur more readily.

31.46 The reason for this selectivity is explained in Figure 9.9. In the ring opening of an unsymmetrical epoxide under acidic conditions, nucleophilic attack occurs at the carbon atom that is more able to accept a δ+ in the transition state; that is, nucleophilic attack occurs at the more substituted carbon. The transition state having a δ+ on a C with an electrondonating CH3 group is more stabilized (lower in energy), permitting a faster reaction. [1]
