Chapter 9/10 - Carboxylic Acids/COOH Derivatives

Quiz yourself by thinking what should be in each of the black spaces below before clicking on it to display the answer.
        Help!  

Term
Definition
carboxylic acids   compounds that have hydroxyl groups attached to carbonyl groups COOH  
🗑
IUPAC system   add -oic acid to akyl root  
🗑
COOH properties   polar so H bonding, electron withdrawing, high bp, acidic cuz of resonance and electron withdrawing groups, acidic alpha Hydrogens  
🗑
Oxidation to get COOH   must be primary alcohol or aldehyde and use KMnO4  
🗑
Grignard Reagents   Mg + ether or something organic  
🗑
Carbonation   grignard reagent and CO2 and acid and water turn tertiary alkyl halides into COOH  
🗑
Soap Formation   RCOOH + NaOH = salts/soaps that have polar head and nonpolar tail and water.  
🗑
Micelle   spherical structure of soap molecules with polar sides faced out towards water and nonpolar sides faced inward  
🗑
Nucleophilic Substitution   Nu attacks Carbon and electrons from double bond go to O, OH gets protonated to create good leaving group, water is displaced by Nu  
🗑
Reduction of COOH   use LAH; to aldehyde or primary alcohol  
🗑
Ester Formation   COOH gets protonated and then attacked by alcohol, under acidic conditions so OH to water and then deprotonate COOH  
🗑
Acyl Halide Formation   COOH + SOCl2 = COCl; very reactive  
🗑
Decarboxylation   CO2 is lost; keto carboxylic acids go thru this; it attacks itself; forms keto and enol  
🗑
-oyl   C double bond O halides  
🗑
Anhydrides   without water so 2 carboxylic acids put together (condensing/losing water)  
🗑
Amides   RCONR2  
🗑
Hoffman Rearrangement   amides to primary amines, loss of carbon  
🗑
Esters   COOR  
🗑
Saponification   making soap with NaOH from fats  
🗑
tranesterification   transforms one ester into another  
🗑
Esters treated with Grignard Reagent   makes a tertiary OH with ketone intermediate  
🗑
Claisen Condensation   makes keto-ester  
🗑
Reduction of esters   makes primary OH's  
🗑


   

Review the information in the table. When you are ready to quiz yourself you can hide individual columns or the entire table. Then you can click on the empty cells to reveal the answer. Try to recall what will be displayed before clicking the empty cell.
 
To hide a column, click on the column name.
 
To hide the entire table, click on the "Hide All" button.
 
You may also shuffle the rows of the table by clicking on the "Shuffle" button.
 
Or sort by any of the columns using the down arrow next to any column heading.
If you know all the data on any row, you can temporarily remove it by tapping the trash can to the right of the row.
