carboxylic acid reactions Flashcards
(14 cards)
add grignard reagent to an ester?
ester is converted into a tertiary alcohol
add lithium aluminium hydride to an ester?
ester is reduced into a primary alcohol
add an alcohol to acid anhydride?
the acid anhydride is hydrolysed into a carboxylic acid and an ester
add an alcohol to an acyl chloride?
acyl chloride is converted into an ester/carboxylic acid
add a gilman reagent to an acyl chloride?
chloride group leaves and is substituted by the R group on the gilman reagent, forming an ester
add a primary amine to an acyl chloride?
the Cl group leave and is substituted by the NHR group, and the acyl chloride is converted into an amide
add lithium aluminium hydride to a amide?
the amide is reduced into a secondary amine
add H+ or OH- ions to an amide?
the amide is converted into a carboxylic acid
add SOCl2 or PCl5 to a carboyxlic acid?
the carboxylic acid is converted into an acyl chloride
add an alcohol with concentration sulfuric acid to a carboxylic acid?
the carboyxlic acid is converted into an ester, with the H ion replaced by the R group in the alcohol
add H+ or OH- ions to an ester?
ester is converted into a carboyxlic acid
add BH3 and Et2O to a carboxylic acid?
carboyxlic acid is reduced into a primary alcohol
add lithium aluminium hydride to an ester?
the ester is reduced into a primary alcohol
add DIBAL to an ester?
the ester is reduced into a ketone/aldehyde
