Ketones and Aldehydes The carbonyl group is of central importance in organic chemistry because of its ubiquity Without studying the carbonyl group in depth we have already encountered numerous examples of this functional group (ketones,aldehydes,carboxylic acids,acid chlorides.etc). The simplest carbonyl compounds are aldehydes and ketone. A ketone has two alkyl (or aryl)groups bonded to the carbonyl carbon. 0 R-C-H R-C-R aldehyde ketone An aldehyde has one alkyl (or aryl)group and one hydrogen bonded to the carbonyl carbon. Structure of the carbonyl group The carbonyl carbon is sp'hybridized,and has a partially filled unhybridized p orbital perpendicular to the o framework. length energy ketone C=0 bond 1.23A 178 kcal/mol (745 kJ/mol) alkene C=C bond 1.34 146 kcal/mol (611 kJ/mol) Chl8 Ketones and Aldehydes (landscape) Page I

The simplest carbonyl compounds are aldehydes and ketone. A ketone has two alkyl (or aryl) groups bonded to the carbonyl carbon.

The oxygen is also sp hybridized,with the 2 lone pairs occupying sp'orbitals.This leaves one electron in a p orbital. These p orbitals form the carbon oxygen bond. The C=O double bond is like a C=C double bond except the carbonyl double bond is shorter and stronger. The carbonyl group has a large dipole moment due to the polarity of the double bond. Oxygen is more electronegative than carbon,and so the bond is polarized toward the oxygen. The attraction of the weakly held nt electrons toward oxygen can be represented by the two following resonance structures. R major minor The first resonance structure is the major contributor,but the other contributes in a small amount,which helps explain the dipole moment. It is this polarization that creates the reactivity of the carbonyl groups(carbon is electrophilic/LA,and the oxygen is nucleophilic/LB). Chl8 Ketones and Aldehydes (landscape) Page 2

Nomenclature IUPAC nomenclature requires ketones to be named by replacing the -e ending of the alkyl name with -one Alkane-→alkanone Eg CH;O CH CH- -CH2一CH CH-CH-C-CH-CH CH2一CH 1 old IUPAC names in blue: 2-butanone 2.4-dimethyl-3-pentanone 1-phenyl-1-propanone new IUPAC names in green: butan-2-one 2.4-dimethylpentan-3-one 1-phenylpropan-1-one 0 OH CH3一C-CH2一C一CH CH CH 3-methylcyclopentanone 2-cyclohexenone 4-hydroxy-4-methyl-2-pentanone cyclohex-2-en-1-one 4-hydroxy-4-methylpentan-2-one Chl8 Ketones and Aldehydes (landscape) Page3

Systematic names for aldehydes are obtained by replacing -e with-al. An aldehyde has to be at the end of a chain,and therefore it is carbon number 1. 0 CHg-C-H H3C-CH2-CH=CH-CHO ethanal pent-2-enal If the aldehyde is attached to a large unit,the suffix-carbaldehyde is used.

A ketone or aldehyde group can also be named as a substituent on a molecule with another functional group as its root. The ketone carbonyl is given the prefix oxo-,and the aldehyde group is named as a formyl-group.(Especially common for carboxylic acids). 0 CH CH2-C-CH2-CHO HgC-C-CH2-CO2H CO,H 3-oxopentanal 2-formylbenzoic acid 3-oxobutanoic acid Common Names The wide spread use of carbonyl compounds means many common names are entrenched in their everyday use.

Hydration of Alkynes(Ch 9) Hydration of alkynes can either be achieved with Markovnikov (acid and mercury(II)catalyzed reaction)or anti- Markovnikov (hydroboration-oxidation)regiochemistry.

Other Syntheses of Aldehydes and Ketones Use of 1,3-Dithiane Dithiane has relatively acidic hydrogens located between the two sulfur atoms,and these can be removed by a strong base. The anion is stabilized by the electron withdrawing effect of the highly polarizable sulfur atoms. CaHg-Li +C4H10 H The dithiane anion can react as a nucleophile with primary alkyl halides,and this alkylation generates a thioacetal H",HgCl 0 R一X H20 R H The hydrolysis of a thioacetal generates an aldehyde. Alternatively,the thioacetal can be further deprotonated and reacted with another(different)alkyl halide to generate a new thioacetal with two alkyl substituents.On hydrolysis,this thioacetal produces a ketone.

This is a good route for the construction of unsymmetrical ketones. Eg (1)BuLi (1)BuLi H*,HgCl2 (2)PhCH,Br (2)CHaBr H2O HaC CH2Ph H CH2Ph CH2Ph The dithiane can be thought of as a"masked"carbonyl group. Ketones from Carboxylic Acids Organolithium reagents are very reactive towards carbonyl compounds. So much so,that they even attack the lithium salts of carboxylate anions. These dianions can then be protonated,which generates hydrates,which then lose water and produce ketones E.g OH R-C-OH LiOH R-C-0-+Li R'-Li HO+ H20 -O-Li+ OH R-C-R carboxylic acid lithium carboxylate dianion hydrate ketone 92的rn6中enn Chl8 Ketones and Aldehydes (landscape) Page 10
