Chapter 21 2
Hydrolysis of Acid Chlorides and Anhydrides
• Hydrolysis occurs quickly, even in moist air with no acid or base catalyst.
• Reagents must be protected from moisture.
=>
Chapter 21 3
Acid Hydrolysis of Esters
• Reverse of Fischer esterification.
• Reaches equilibrium.
• Use a large excess of water.

Saponification
• Base-catalyzed hydrolysis of ester.
• “Saponification” means “soap-making.”
• Soaps are made by heating NaOH with a fat (triester of glycerol) to produce the sodium salt of a fatty acid - a soap.
• One example of a soap is sodium stearate, Na+ -OOC(CH2)16CH3. =>
Chapter 21 6
Hydrolysis of Nitriles• Under mild conditions, nitriles hydrolyze
to an amide.
• Heating with aqueous acid or base will hydrolyze a nitrile to an acid.
=>
Chapter 21 7
Reduction to Alcohols
Lithium aluminum hydride reduces acids, acid chlorides, and esters to primary alcohols.
=>
Chapter 21 8
Reduction to Aldehydes
Acid chlorides will react with a weaker reducing agent to yield an aldehyde.
=>
Chapter 21 9
Reduction to Amines
• Lithium aluminum hydride reduces amides and nitriles to amines.
• Nitriles and 1 amides reduce to 1 amines.
• A 2 amide reduces to a 2 amine.
• A 3 amide reduces to a 3 amine.
=>
Chapter 21 10
Organometallic Reagents
Grignard reagents and organolithium reagents add twice to acid chlorides and esters to give alcohols after protonation.
=>
Chapter 21 11
Grignard Reagentsand Nitriles
A Grignard reagent or organolithium reagent attacks the cyano group to yield an imine which is hydrolyzed to a ketone.
=>
Chapter 21 12
Acid Chloride Synthesis
• Use thionyl chloride, SOCl2, or oxalyl chloride, (COCl)2.
• Other products are gases.

Industrial Synthesis of Acetic Anhydride
• Four billion pounds/year produced.
• Use high heat (750°C) and triethyl phosphate catalyst to produce ketene.

Anhydride vs. Acid Chloride• Acetic anhydride is cheaper, gives a
better yield than acetyl chloride.
• Use acetic formic anhydride to produce formate esters and formamides.
• Use cyclic anhydrides to produce a difunctional molecule.

Lactam Formation• Five- and six-membered rings can be
formed by heating - and -amino acids.
• Smaller or larger rings do not form readily. =>

• Highly reactive, 4-membered ring.
• Found in antibiotics isolated from fungi.

ThioestersMore reactive than esters because:
-S-R is a better leaving group than -O-RResonance overlap is not as effective.

Carbonic Acid Esters
• CO2 in water contains some H2CO3.
• Diesters are stable.
• Synthesized from phosgene.
