Q

Solubility of Alcohol

A

Like Dissolves Like

  • soluble in organic solvents
  • depend on C number and length of NP chain and amount of OH
  • C number = Solubility- inversely
  • OH= Solubility- directly

25
elimination of a molecule of water from adjacent carbon atoms gives an alkene as a product
Dehydration
26
most difficult to dehydrate and requires temperature as high as 180 degrees
primary alcohols
27
Undergo acid-catalyzed dehydration at lower temp
Secondary alcohols
28
undergo acid-catalyzed dehydration at temperatures slightly above room temp (20-24 degrees)
Tertiary alcohol
29
Dehydration is what kind of reaction?
Elimination reaction
30
rule that states that then major product in elimination is the alkene that has more alkyl groups bonded to it
Zaitsev rule
31
Alcohol to alkene is also a reversible chemical reaction according to what principle?
Le Chatelier's Principle
32
a principle that establishes equilibrium in an event that certain stressors that are applied into the reaction are relieved
Le Chatelier's Principle
32
a principle that establishes equilibrium in an event that certain stressors that are applied into the reaction are relieved
Le Chatelier's Principle
33
stressors require for the conversion of alcohol to alkene:
Temp | Strong Acid
34
Combining of 2 molecules to form a larger molecule while liberating a small portion, usually in a form of water; 2 ROH - form water and ether
Condensation
35
Operational rules in oxidation and reduction of alcohols
``` Reduction= decrease C-O bonds and increase C-H bonds Oxidation= increase C-O bonds and decrease C-H bonds ```
36
replacement of C-H bonds with C-O bonds
Oxidation of alcohols
37
product of oxidation of alcohol
Carbonyl group- C=OH
38
oxidation of alcohols by classification
primary and secondary = readily oxidation | tertiary = resist oxidation
39
Oxidation of primary alcohol
ROH-R-CHO(aldehyde- RCOOH (Carboxylic acid)
40
oxidation of secondary alcohol
oxidized to ketones replacng 1C-H with 1C-O
41
Oxidation tertiary alcohol
prone to dehydation because ofacd-catalyst
42
oxygen leads production heat and light
Combustion
43
single product is obtained from which the halogen atom found only where the hydroxyl group is originally located
Halogenation
44
organic molecules containing a halogen atom.
Alkyl halides
45
IUPAC name of phenol
Benzenol
46
Commong or preffered name of phenol
Phenol
47
Old name of phenol
Carbolic Acid
48
Nomenclature for phenols
When substituents are added, the carbon with OH attached to it is considered to be numbered as 1; 1 is omitted from the name IUPAC
49
instead of numbers these are use instead for determining the placement of the substituent in the benzene ring
ortho, meta, para o-1 m-2 p-3
50
phenol with OH
Hydroxyphenols
51
Nomenclature for hydroxyphenols
1,2 OH Catechol 1,3 OH Resorcinol 1,4 OH Hydroquinone
52
methylphenol are also called
cresols
53
rules for two or more substituents in phenol
1. number to give the lowest possible numbers around the ring 2. Alphabetize the substituent names
54
properties of phenol
``` Medicinal odor slightly soluble to water flammabale can't be dehydrated oxidized by strong oxidizers Halogenation (weak acids) ```
55
the weak acidity of phenols is due to?
the stability of phenoxide ion compared with an alkoxide ion
56
pKa and pH of phenol and Alcohol
Phenol-10 Alcohol- 16-18 pH phenol- 5-5 pH Alcohol- neutral
57
how many times does an oxygen atom in alcohol participate in single and double covalent bonda?
2-single | 1-double
