ketone to alcohol
reducing bonds to oxygen = reduction = NaBH4 and makes secondary alcohols
Aldehyde to alcohol
Reduction - reducing bonds to oxygen from double to single = NaBH4
Alcohol to carboxylic acid
oxidation = Cr2O72-/H+ (reflux) increases bonds to oxygen = Cr ion gets reduced
Alcohol to ketone
secondary alcohol only due to O in middle = oxidation = Cr2O72-/H+ + heat - no reaction with tollens
Alcohol to Aldehyde
oxidation primary alcohol = Cr2O72-/H+ - cold
Aldehyde to Carboxylic acid
Oxidation - Cr2O72-/H+ reflux
carboxylic acid to carboxylate ion
NH3 (warm) Acid + base reaction = carboxylate ion + NH4+
carboxylate ion to amide
heat - substitution
ester to amide
Hydrolysis NH3 (alc)
ester to alcohol
hydrolysis h20/H+
ester to carboxylate ion
hydrolysis - alcohol
ester to carboxylic acid
hydrolysis H2O/H+
carboxylic acid to acid chloride
substitution SOCl2 reflux
acid chloride to carboxylic acid
substitution H2O
acid chloride to amide
substitution NH3 (alc) warm
carboxylate ion to amide
substitution heat
amide to carboxylate ion
Hydrolysis NaOH (NH3)
amide to carboxylic acid
Hydrolysis H3O+ (NH4+)
acid chloride to ester
condensation (ethanol) violent reaction to water
carboxylic acid to ester
condensation water
aldehyde to ester
condensation primary alcohol
amide to polyamide
