Chapter 11. Reactions Of Alcohols Flashcards
Two ginger reagents are
Organo magnesium compounds
Organo lithium compounds
Gringar reagents act as
Carbanions
What solvents are most commen in the synthesis of gringer reagents
Ethers
THF
What compounds react with gringer reagents to creat alcohols
Carbonyls and epoxides
Gringer reagents do what with esters that they do not do with Carbonyls
React twice / removing the group attached to the oxygen
Alcohols can react with what to creat alkoxides .
Na , Li, K.
Oxidation of primary alcohols with a strong oxidizer gives
Carboxilic acid
Oxidation of a primary alcohol with pyridinuim chlorochromate (pcc) gives
Aldehyde
Sodium dichromate ( Na Cr2 O7 ) does what to primary and secondary alcohols
Primary - carboxilic acids
Secondary - Keytones
NaCr2O7 and H2SO4 combine with a secondary alcohol to creat
A keytone
The combination of sulfuric acid and sodium dichromate create
Chromic acid
Chromic acid combined with an alcohol create
Chromate ester
Chromate ester degrades to create
A keytone , aldehyde, or carboxilic acid
pyridinuim chlorochromate is soluble in
Non polar organic compounds. Like. Dichloro methane
A primary alcohol will combine with what two compounds to create an aldehyde
Pyridinuim chlorochromate (PCC) and Dichloromethane
What to tertiary alcohols oxidize to create
Tertiary alcohols do not oxidize
