This.makes the acid more acidic by delocalizing the charge of the carboxylate ion Electron-withdrawing groups deactivate the benzene ring to electrophilic attack and make.benzoic acids more acidic The conjugate base of benzoic acid is destabilized by electron-donating groups (EDG).

It is more favourable for the electrons to be held close to the positively charged nucleus, and thus an sp-hybridized.anion is more stable than an sp2-hydridized anion 5 88 I ١٦ Resonance/delocalization Effect on Acidity.Delocalization of charge in the conjugate base anion through resonance is a stabilizing factor ١٧ ?Q. Which of the following is more acidic and why Ft www.w Acidity to r t to Benzoic acid (pKa 4.2) is a stronger acid than acetic acid (pKa 4.8), and it is also stronger than its saturated analogue cyclohexanecarboxylic acid (pKa 4.9). The phenyl group exerts an electron withdrawing effect because the hybridization of the ring carbons is sp2; consequently, electrons are held closer to the carbon atom than in an sp3-hybridized.orbital The pKa of phenylacetic acid (pKa 4.3), compared with acetic acid (pKa 4.8), demonstrates the inductive effect of a benzene ring. However, we might then expect benzoic acid to be a rather stronger acid than it actually is, since the phenyl group is closer to the carboxyl group than in.phenylacetic acid١٨ Carboxylic Acids and Their Derivatives The derivatives of carboxylic acids are compounds in which the -OH of carboxylic acid is replaced by nucleophile (-X for acid halide, -OR for ester, -NH2, -NHR, -NR2 for amides, -OOCR.for anhydride) Carboxylic acids derivatives can converted to carboxylic acids by simple acidic or basic.hydrolysis Acid Chloride Ester Amide Acid anhydride ١٩  5 it Nomenclature Of Acid Chlorides-1.Replace the -ic acid ending in the name of the parent acid by –yl chloride O O O H3C C Cl Cl Cl :IUPAC Propanoyl chloride Ethanoyl chloride Benzoylchloride Common : Acetyl chloride ٢٠ Nomenclature of Esters -2 The alkyl group (R’) is written first followed by the name of the parent acid with replacing of.the ending –ic acid by –ate Ethyl ethanoate Methyl benzoate (IUPAC) Ethyl acetate (common) O O HO O O Methyl propanoate Isopropyl-4-hydroxy-5-methyl-5- hexenoate (IUPAC) ٢١ Nomenclature of Amide -3 Replace the ending oic acid of the parent acid’s by the word amide Emmy.If there is R group on the nitrogen atom, it is listed first and designated with –N O CH3CH2 C NHCH3 N-Methylpropanamide Ethanamide Benzamide (IUPAC) Acetamide N-Methylpropionamide (Common) N,N-Dimethylmethanamide N-Ethyl-N-methylbenzamide (IUPAC) N,N-Dimethylformamide (Common) ٢٢ Nomenclature of Anhydride -4 iupac common An anhydride is named by replacing the word acid in the corresponding acid by the.word anhydride Butandioic anhydride Ethanoic anhydride Benzoic anhydride (IUPAC) Succinic anhydride Acetic anhydride (Common) O O Preparation OH heat O OH O O ٢٣ Nucleophilic Substitution Reactions O O + 3 + Nu L R L R Nu I ٢٤ Relative reactivity of the carboxylic acid derivatives towards a nucleophilic substitution.reaction EDG : Reduces the electrophilic nature of the carbonyl group by neutralizing the partial positive charge developed on the carbonyl carbon, and thus makes the derivative less reactive to.nucleophilic substitution EWG: Increases the electrophilic nature of carbonyl group by pulling the electron density of the carbonyl bond towards itself, making the carbonyl carbon more reactive to nucleophilic.substitution ٢٥ Derivative Substituent (X) Electronic effect of X Relative reactivity Acid chloride -Cl electron withdrawing 1 (most reactive) Acid anhydride -OC=OR electron withdrawing 2 (almost as reactive as 1) Thioester -SR weakly electron donating 3 alkoxy (-OR) group is weakly Ester -OR 4 electron donating Amide -NH2 very strongly donating 5 Carboxylate ions are not reactive because their negative Carboxylate ion -O- charge repels the approach of other nucleophiles Acid halide > acid anhydride > thioester > ester > amide ٢٦ Preparation of Acyl chlorides and reactions of Acyl chlorides O O O R'CO-Na R C O C R' -Na+Cl_ Anhydride O R'OH,base R C OR' HCl Ester SOCl2 O or O PCl5 NH3 O RCOH RCCl R C NH2 or NH4 Cl Carboxylic acid PCl6 Acyl chloride Amide O R'NH2 R C NH R' R'NH3 Cl N- Substituted Amide O R'R"NH R C NR' R" R'R"NH2 Cl N,N-Disubstituted Amide ٢٧ References :Textbooks T.W.
