Question
Answer
What happens when you have a carboxylic acids with a salt?   No REACTION because it already has a negative charge

What is capable of reacting with a carboxyllic acid? (Which charged nucleophile(s)?   CH3-, NH2-, OH, SH, -OAc  
🗑
What would the LG be in the above case?   The H would bond with the nucleophiles, leaving the carboxylic O with a negative charge

🗑
What is the first steop of the carbonyl reaction?   The reagent gives a hydride to the central carbon atom, giving the oxygen a negative charge  
🗑
What is the second stop of the carbonyl reaction?   dilute acid gives the negatively charged oxygen an H to stabalize the charge  
🗑
What is the only functional group capable of reacting with a carboxyllic acid to form a salt?   strong base neutral nucleophiles can react to form a salt (O of carb. acid has a negative charge

🗑
FE is to what and Salts are to what?   FE is to weak base and salts are to strong base  
🗑
What is the order of reactivity of addition elimination reactions? IN DECREASING REACTIVITY   Acyl halides, anhydrides, esters and amides  
🗑
What do all derivatives yield upon hydrolysis?   Carboxylic acids  
🗑
What is hydrolysis:   Acid/water or base/water followed by acidification  
🗑
PREPARATION SECTION OF TEST   PREPARATION SECTION OF TEST

What solvents are needed for oxidation of primary alcohols?   KMnO4 or CrO3, H2SO Chromic Acid  
🗑
Solvent needed for oxidation of aldehydes?   KMnO4  
🗑
How do you know what the product of the preparation of acids is?   It is usually the main compuund, like a benzene ring minus its attachments, but instead of its old attachments, it has the COOH  
🗑
What are the solvents needed for carbonation of grignard reagents?   Make grignard reagent by MG metal, add CO2, then acidify with H+  
🗑
Nitrile hydrolysis requires what?   Nitrile is first formed by Sn2 reaction on an alkyl bromide( from alcohols and HBr combination)
