2.1.3.1 Boiling point

- Boiling points and melting points of carboxylic acid are much higher than those of
corresponding alcohol because of stronger hydrogen bonds between acid molecules.

- Boiling points and melting points increase when

molecular weight increases
Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

characteristically strong odors.

 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

2.1.4.2 Property at the carbonyl group

* Fisher esterification reaction
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

- Mechanism:

Step 1: The carboxylic acid is protonated on its carbonyl oxygen. The

proton donor shown in the equation for this step is an alkyloxonium
ion formed by proton transfer from the acid catalyst to the alcohol.

Step 2: Protonation of the carboxylic acid increases the positive

character of its carbonyl group. A molecule of the alcohol acts
as a nucleophile and bonds to the carbonyl carbon.
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

Step 3: The oxonium ion formed in step 2 loses a proton to give the
tetrahedral intermediate in its neutral form. This concludes the first stage
in the mechanism.
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives
Step 4: The second stage begins with protonation of the tetrahedral
intermediate on one of its hydroxyl oxygens.

Step 5: The hydroxyl-protonated tetrahedral intermediate dissociates to a

molecule of water and gives the protonated form of the ester.
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives
Step 6: Deprotonation of the protonated ester gives the ester.

Acid-catalyzed esterification is reversible, and generally the quantities of

both carboxylic acid and alcohol remaining at equilibrium are appreciable
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

It methanol enriched in the mass-18 isotope of oxygen is esterified with

benzoic acid, the methyl benzoate product will contained all the 18O label
that was originally present in the alcohol

Esterification may be driven to the right either by using an excess of one of the
reactants or by removing one of the products. For example, in forming ethyl
esters, excess ethanol is often used to drive the equilibrium as far as possible
toward the ester. Alternatively, water may be removed either by distilling it out
or by adding a dehydrating agent such as magnesium sulfate or molecular
sieves (dehydrated zeolite crystals that adsorb water).
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

- Ability of acids and alcohol in esterification reaction follows these orders

- Hydroxy acids, compounds that contain both a hydroxyl and a carboxylic acid
function, have the capacity to form cyclic esters called lactones. This
intramolecular esterification takes place spontaneously when the ring that is formed
is five- or six-membered. Lactones that contain a five-memberedcyclic ester are
referred to as γ-lactones; their six-membered analogs are known as δ-lactones.
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

Carboxylic acids are converted to their methyl esters very simply by adding an
ether solution of diazomethane. The only by-product is nitrogen gas, and any
excess diazomethane also evaporates. Purification of the ester usually involves
only evaporation of the solvent. Yields are nearly quantitative in most cases.

 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

2.1.4.4 Decarboxylation reaction

Decarboxylation is the loss of CO2 from the carboxyl group of a molecule.

Almost any carboxylic acid, heated to a very high temperature, undergoes
thermal decarboxylation. Most carboxylic acids, however, are quite resistant
to moderate heat and melt or even boil without decarboxylation. Exceptions
are carboxylic acids that have a carbonyl group β to the carboxyl group. This
type of carboxylic acid undergoes decarboxylation quite readily on mild
heating. For example, warming 3-oxobutanoic acid brings about its
decarboxylation to give acetone and carbon dioxide.
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

β-Dicarboxylic acids (1,3-dicarboxylic acids, also called malonic

acids) decarboxylate readily for reasons similar to β-keto acids

When ethyl benzoate, labeled with the mass-18 isotope of the carbonyl oxygen,
then subjected it to acid-catalyzed hydrolysis in ordinary (unlabeled) water. He
found that ethyl benzoate, recovered from the reaction before hydrolysis was
complete, had lost a portion of its isotopic label. This observation is consistent
only with the reversible formation of a tetrahedral intermediate under the reaction
conditions:

- Reaction between ester and alcohol, the transesterification reaction

Esters undergo transesterification, in which one alkoxy group substitutes
for another, under either acidic or basic conditions. When an ester of one
alcohol is treated with a different alcohol in the presence of acid or base,
the two alcohol groups can interchange. An equilibrium results, and the
equilibrium can be driven toward the desired ester by using a large excess
of the desired alcohol or by removing the other alcohol.

2.2.3.3 Reduction of carboxylic acid derivatives

- LiAlH4 can reduce these derivatives to primary alcohols

Acid chlorides are more reactive than other acid derivatives, and they are
reduced to aldehydes by mild reducing agents such as lithium tri-tert-
butoxyaluminum hydride. Diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBAL-H)
reduces esters to aldehydes at low temperatures, and it also reduces nitriles
to aldehydes.
 Chapter II: Carboxylic acid and its derivatives

Lithium aluminum hydride reduces amides and nitriles to amines, providing

some of the best synthetic routes to amines. Primary amides and
nitriles are reduced to primary amines. Secondary amides are reduced to
secondary amines, and tertiary amides are reduced to tertiary amines.
