As a general rule, nucleophilic addition reactions are characteristic only of aldehydes and ketones, not of carboxylic acid derivatives. The reason for the difference is structural. As discussed previously in A Preview of Carbonyl Compounds and shown in Figure 19.14, the tetrahedral intermediate produced by addition of a nucleophile to a carboxylic acid derivative can eliminate a leaving group, leading to a net nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction. The tetrahedral intermediate... [Pg.723]

The difference in behavior between aldehydes/ketones and carboxylic acic derivatives is a consequence of structure. Carboxylic acid derivatives have ai acyl carbon bonded to a group -Y that can leave as a stable anion. As soon a the tetrahedral intermediate is formed, the leaving group is expelled to general- a new carbonyl compound. Aldehydes and ketones have no such leaving grouj however, and therefore don t undergo substitution. [Pg.789]

Q An electron pair from oxygen displaces the leaving Y group, generating a new carbonyl compound as product. [Pg.790]

Nucleophilic acyl substitution reaction (Section 21.2) A reaction in which a nucleophile attacks a carbonyl compound and substitutes for a leaving group bonded to the carbonyl carbon. [Pg.1246]

This reaction illustrates the striking difference in behavior between carboxylic esters on the one hand and aldehydes and ketones on the other. When a carbanion such as an enolate ion is added to the carbonyl group of an aldehyde or ketone (16-41), the H or R is not lost, since these groups are much poorer leaving groups than OR. Instead the intermediate similar to 146 adds a proton at the oxygen to give a hydroxy compound. [Pg.571]

Whereas phosphonium ylides normally react with carbonyl compounds to give alkenes, dimethylsulfonium methylide and dimethylsulfoxonium methylide yield epoxides. Instead of a four-center elimination, the adducts from the sulfur ylides undergo intramolecular displacement of the sulfur substituent by oxygen. In this reaction, the sulfur substituent serves both to promote anion formation and as the leaving group. [Pg.177]

In the reduction of acids there is a tendency for the lithium salt, RCO20Li to separate from the ethereal solution, and thus bring reduction to a halt this can be avoided by first converting the acid to a simple, e.g. Me or Et, ester. In the reduction of the latter, the initial nucleophilic attack by AIH4 results in an addition/elimination reaction—OR is a good leaving group in (40)—followed by normal attack, as above, on the resultant carbonyl compound (41) to yield the primary alcohol (42) ... [Pg.215]

The activation of a carboxylate group with CDI proceeds to give an intermediate imide with imidazole as the active leaving group. In the presence of a primary amine-containing compound, the nucleophile attacks the electron-deficient carbonyl, displacing the imidazole and forming a... [Pg.946]

Carbonyl compounds are also suited to the investigation of the role of solvent reorganization in the dynamics of intramolecular dissociative electron transfer as observed in a series of phenacyl derivatives bearing various leaving groups.199... [Pg.150]

Dunitz (180) has collected X-ray crystallographic data for carbonyl compounds that possess nucleophilic atoms in proximity to C=0, and has postulated that such molecules can be used as models for the incipient transition state (reaction coordinate) for the nucleophilic addition to carbonyl compounds. Atrop-isomeric compounds have the potential, by providing a variety of such data, for understanding the incipient transition states. For example, the interaction found in the 1,4-dimethoxy-9-(2-acyloxyethyl)triptycenes (130) can be viewed as a model for SN2 type reactions where the acyloxy group is the leaving group and the methoxy is the nucleophile. In an extreme case of this sort, cyclization actually takes place. Such an example has been reported (181). [Pg.75]

Meyers and Ford (76JOCI735), and Hirai et al. (72CPB206) have used 2-(alkylthio)-2-oxazolines or thiazolines to prepare the corresponding thi-iranes upon treatment with bases and subsequently with carbonyl compounds. The reactions of 2-pyridyl sulfides are expected to proceed similarly as shown in Scheme 22, since the oxazoline ring is a good leaving group in the intramolecular substitution reaction. When optically active oxazolines are used, asymmetric induction takes place to afford the optically active thiiranes in 19-32% enantiomeric excess (ee). The process is shown in Scheme 23. [Pg.47]
