The Carbonyl GroupThe Carbonyl Group In this and several following chapters we study

the physical and chemical properties of classes of compounds containing the carbonyl group, C=O• aldehydes and ketones (Chapter 16)• carboxylic acids (Chapter 17)• acid halides, acid anhydrides, esters, amides (Chapter

18)• enolate anions (Chapter 19)

The Carbonyl GroupThe Carbonyl Group The carbonyl group consists of • one sigma bond formed by the overlap of sp2 hybrid

orbitals, and • one pi bond formed by the overlap of parallel 2p

orbitals

NomenclatureNomenclature IUPAC names:• the parent chain is the longest chain that contains the

functional group• for an aldehyde, change the suffix from -e-e to -al-al• for an unsaturated aldehyde, show the carbon-carbon

double bond by changing the infix from -an--an- to -en--en-; the location of the suffix determines the numbering pattern

• for a cyclic molecule in which -CHO is bonded to the ring, name the compound by adding the suffix -carbaldehydecarbaldehyde

Physical PropertiesPhysical Properties Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon (3.5

vs 2.5) and, therefore, a C=O group is polar

• aldehydes and ketones are polar compounds and interact in the pure state by dipole-dipole interaction

• they have higher boiling points and are more soluble in water than nonpolar compounds of comparable molecular weight

proton or Lewis acid to form a resonance-stabilized cation

• protonation in this manner increases the electron deficiency of the carbonyl carbon and makes it more reactive toward nucleophiles

Grignard ReagentsGrignard Reagents Given the difference in electronegativity between

carbon and magnesium (2.5 - 1.3), the C-Mg bond is polar covalent, with Cδ- and Mgδ+• in its reactions, a Grignard reagent behaves as a

carbanion

Carbanion:Carbanion: an anion in which carbon has an unshared pair of electrons and bears a negative charge• a carbanion is a good nucleophile and adds to the

carbonyl group of aldehydes and ketones

-Halogenation-Halogenation Acid-catalyzed halogenation: • introduction of a second halogen is slower than the

first• introduction of the electronegative halogen on the -

carbon decreases the basicity of the carbonyl oxygen toward protonation

Base-promoted -halogenation:• each successive halogenation is more rapid than the

previous one • the introduction of the electronegative halogen on the -carbon increases the acidity of the remaining -hydrogens and, thus, each successive -hydrogen is removed more rapidly than the previous one
