16
Q

Acyl chloride with carboxylic acid

A

Anhydride (can be dissymmetrical r groups)

17
Q

Acyl chloride with an alcohol with a Et3N or pyridine

A

Sacrificial base

Ester formation

Alcohol could react with h that’s why sacrificial base

Works for ALL ROH not just Fischer esterification

18
Q

Acyl chloride plus nh2 or nhr2

A

Amide

Dry/ch2cl2

Sacrificial base needed

19
Q

Anhydride with carboxylic alcohol

A

Ester

2 oh group

No need for sacrificial base

20
Q

Ester plus alcohol under acidic conditions

A

Trans esterification (swap r groups on 0-r side of ester)

21
Q

Reduction of any carboxylic acid derivative is with liah4 thf and h30 workup gives what

A

Primary alcohol

22
Q

Amide reduction with liah4 and h30+ workup gives what

A

R-CH2-N-r groups

23
Q

Ester reduction gives what

A

Alcohol from each side of ester ( 1 primary on c=o side)

24
Q

Acyl reduction gives what

A

Primary alcohol with cl

25
Q

How to stop at aldehyde stage of reduction

A

Must use acyl chloride

Cool temperature

Dry thf

Tuned down Version of liah4

26
Q

Ester with organomagnesium or organolitihium with thf and h3o work up

A

Tertiary alcohol with 2 identical r groups

Irreversible

27
Q

To stop at ketone stage with ester reduction by alkylation

A

option 1

Carboxylic acid with r-Li

Option 2

Acyl chloride with organocuperate (-78 degrees) thf

Option 3

Nitrile with organo magnesium

28
Q

Co2 In default

Organometallic in excess

A

3 alcohol with 3 identical r groups

Following acidic works up

29
Q

Organometallic in default

Excess co2

A

Carboxylic acid ( with r group from grignard) then acidic workup
