Module 10: Carbonyl Chemistry Flashcards
Forms a hemiacetal with new _________________________, resulting to an equal amount of enantiomers
stereogenic centers
The presence of the electronegative oxygen atom in the carbonyl group means that the bond is?
polarized
it forms a new stereogenic center
cyclization
these are the lipids that comprise animal fats and vegetable oils
triacylglycerols
Hemiacetals in sugars are formed by?
cyclization of hydroxy aldehydes
NH3 and amines are?
bases
Aldehydes are more reactive than ketones towards nucleophilic attack for both ________ and _____________ reasons
steric, electronic
RCOZ (Z = ?)
leaving group
this reaction converts the OH group that is part of the hemiacetal to an OR group
conversion of hemiacetals to acetals
in nucleophilic acyl substitution, nucleophilic attack forms an _________________________
sp3 hybridized intermediate
“uncrowded” carbon
Trigonal planar structure
two hydrolysis of esters
in aqueous acid and aqueous base
The electronegative oxygen makes the carbonyl carbon ________________
electrophilic
aldehydes and ketones undergo?
nucleophilic addition
Synthesis of acetals is?
reversible
The stability of RCOZ increases because of added __________________________
resonance stabilization
compounds that contain an electronegative atom bonded to the carbonyl group
acyl compounds
the better the leaving group Z, the ________________ RCOZ is
more reactive
this can be driven to the right by removing the water as it forms
equilibrium
Trigonal planar structure
“uncrowded” carbon
Esters are hydrolyzed with water in the presence of either an acid or a base to form?
carboxylic acids or carboxylate anions
Cyclic hemiacetals can be converted to acetals by treatment with an ____________ and ________
alcohol, acid
are hydrolyzed with water in the presence of either an acid or a base to form carboxylic acids or carboxylate anions
esters
examples of acyl compounds
carboxylic acids
acid chloride
ester
amide
these cannot undergo substitution because they have no leaving group bonded to the newly formed sp3 hybridized carbon
aldehydes and ketones
_______________ in sugars are formed by cyclization of hydroxy aldehydes.
hemiacetals
degree of all carbonyl carbon bonds?
120 degrees
ketones are less reactive making it more _____________ and more ____________
crowded, stable
The ________________________ makes the carbonyl carbon electrophilic
electronegative oxygen
An __________ can be hydrolyzed to an aldehyde or ketone by treatment with aqueous acid
acetal
