4 Carbony| Compounds + Acetaldehycle and Acetone 4 Other Carbony! Compounds CARBONYL GROUP Introduction Aldehydes and ketones, both have the general formula, C,H,,0 and the common feature of both is carbonyl (C=O) group and, therefore, they ae called carbonyl compounds. Aldehydes and ketones are the first oxidation products of primary and secondary aleohols respectively. Aldehydes are obtained by replacing the two terminal hydrogen atoms of alkanes by the oxygen atom while Ketones are obtained by replacing the two non-terminal hydrogen atoms of alkanes by oxygen. Due to this, aldehyde group becomes chain terminating group and ketonic group occurs within the chain In aldehydes, CHO group may be attached to a hydrogen atom or alkyl group Carbonyl group oF aryl group. is anached with sno: cnc aiom in aldehyde Im ketones, C=O group may be attached to two alkyl groups, two aryl groups cor one alkyl anone aryl group. Ir both the groups are same, they’ are simple Ketones and if they are different, they are mixed ketones, AI Simpte ketones (or) symmetrical Ketones: R-CO-R tg # CHy-CO-CH,, “He, ote Mixed Ketones (or) unsymmet cs | RCO-R Carbonyl group is attached with ‘wo alkyl groups in ketone Aromatic ketones : Ar-CO-R Acetophenone Benzophenone Aldehydes and ketones are wide spread in animal and plant kingdom, Their role in biochemical process of life is very important. They add fragrance and flavour to nature. They are used in many food products and pharmaceuticals. Sor them are used as solvents and as adhesives, paints, resins, perfumes, plastics, fabrics, ete. Three of them are given below Ho (CH=CHCHO. m on OH Vanitlin Cinnamaldehyde —_p-Hydroxybenzaldehyde Nomenclature WYN Dimethyl ketone is called acetone Ae IUPAC name of saturated aldehyde is alkanal ~~ There are two systems of naming carbonyl compounds, ‘Common system Aldehydes and ketones are often called by their common names. Common names of the aldehydes are derived from the names of the corresponding carboxylic acids by replacing the suffix acid with aldehyde. The location of the substituent in the carbon chain is indicated by letters a, B, ,8, etc, The carbon being the one directly linked to the aldehyde group, B-carbon the next and so on. HCOOH (Formic acid) «LL HCHO (Formaldehyde) CH,COOH (Acetic acid) LLL CH,CHO (Acetaldehyde) The common names of ketones are derived by naming (wo alkyl or aryl groups bonded to the carbonyl group and adding the word ketone. In case of simple ketones, they are named as dialkyl ketones. However, mixed ketones are named by naming the two alkyl groups attached fo the Ketonic group as separate words in alphabetical corder and adding the word ketone. The locations of substituents are indicated by Greek letters, 0,01, B.B’ and so on. Alkyl phenyl ketones are usually named by adding the acyl group as prefix to phenone. CH,-Co-CH, Dimethyl Ketone (Historical name is acetone) CH,-CO-CH, Ethyl methyl ketone cH 4B’ Dichlorodiethyl ketone Methyl phenyl ketone (or) Acetophenone TUPAC system ‘The TUPAC names of open chain aliphatic aldehydes and ketones are derived from the names of the corresponding alkanes by replacing the ending -e with -al and -one respectively. In case of aldehydes, the longest carbon chain is numbered from the carbon of the aldehyde group while in case of ketones, the numbering begins from the end nearer to the carbonyl group. The substituents are prefixed in alphabetical order along with numerals indicating their positions in the carbon chain ‘The name of the simplest aromatic aldehyde carrying the aldehyde group on a benzene ring is benzene carbaldehyde.

It uses sp? hybrid orbitals to form three sigma bonds, one with oxygen atom and remaining two with two other atoms or groups (R or H). The bond angles are approximately 120° as expected of a trigonal coplanar structure ‘The unhybridised p-orbital of carbonyl carbon forms pi bond with oxygen atom by sideway overlapping with half filled p-orbital of oxygen atom. The carbon oxygen double bond is polarised due to higher electronegativity of oxygen relative to carbon. Consequently, oxygen attains a partial negative charge and carbon a partial positive charge making the bond polar. Hence. the carbonyl carbon is an electrophilic (Lewis acid), and carbonyl oxygen, a nucleophilic (Lewis base) centre ‘The high values of dipole moments of carbonyl compounds than the corresponding ethers and the high polarity of the carbonyl group is explained on the basis of resonance involving a neutral and a dipolar structures.

The secondary alcohol is oxidised to Ketone at the expense of the reduction of acetone to isopropyl alcohol (or cyclohexanone to cyclohexanol). This method is particularly useful for oxidising unsaturated secondary alcohols because it does not affect carbon-carbon double or triple bond.

Ketones upto eleven carbon atoms are also colourless volatile liquids. The higher members of both the series are solids. The lower members of aldehydes and ketones such as formaldehyde, acetaldehyde and acetone are miscible with water in all proportions, because they form hydrogen bond with water. ‘The solubility of these compounds in water decreases with the increase in the size of the alkyl group. It is due to the hydrophobic nature of the alkyl group. All aldehydes and ketones are fairly soluble in organic solvents like benzene, ether, chloroform, ete Dipole-dipole interactions are weaker than intermolecular Iydrogen bonding aU Cee Lower aldehydes have unpleasant sharp pungent odours. As the size of the molecule increases, the odour becomes less pungent and more fragrant. M naturally occurring carbonyl compounds are used in the blending of perfumes and flavouring agents, Aldehydes and ketones have relatively high boiling points as compared to hydrocarbons or ethers of comparable molecular masses. It is due to appreciable inter molecular (dipole-dipole) attraction as the aldehydes and ketones are polar molecules. These dipole-dipole interactions are however, weaker than intermolecular hydrogen bonding in alcohols. Consequently, boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are relatively lower than alcohols of comparable molecular masses. The following compounds have almost same molecular mass (58-60). Their boiling points order is: I-propanol (alcohol, 370 K) > propanone (ketone, 329 K) 2 propanal (aldehyde, K) > methoxyethane (ether, 281 K) 2 butane (alkane, 273 K). Arrange the following in the order of increasing boiling points H,CH,OH(B), CH,CH,OCH,CH,(C), CH,CH,CH,CH,CH, (). Molecular masses of compounds A, B, Cand D are almost same (72-74), Compound (B) is an alcohol, associated with extensive inter molecular hydrogen bonding. Hence its boiling point is highest. (A) isan aldehyde. (A) is more polar than (C), which is an ether. (D) isan alkane and possesses only weak van der Waals forces. Hence its boiling point is least Hence the order of boiling points is ;B > A> C>D. — 3.2.3 Chemical properties Sea Aha Carbon atom of carbonyl group is antacked by nucleophile LU eal NN Aldchydes and ketones are highly reactive compounds.

Explain Gattermann-Koch reaction for the formation of benzaldehyde. How benzaldehyde is formed from toluene? How acetophenone is formed by Friedel-Craft’s reaction? Discuss on the Cannizzaro’s reaction. Aldehydes and ketones which contain the common carbonyl functional group are some of the important classes of organic compounds. According to TUPAC nomenclature, aldehydes are called as alkanals and ketones as alkanones. Carbonyl compounds exhibit chain isomerism, functional isomerism, tautomerism and ketones having five or more carbons exhibit metamerism also. Primary alcohols on oxidation or on catalytic dehydrogenation give aldehydes and secondary alcohols on similar conditions yield ketones, Dry distillation of calcium salts of fatty acids along with calcium formate give aldehydes and symmetrical ketones may be obtained when calcium salts of fatty acids alone are heated. Vapours of fatty acids mixed with formic acid when passed over heated thoria or alumina or MaO give aldehydes. Vapours of a fatty acid alone give ketones. Alkenes can be oxidised to carbonyl compounds by Wacker process by using aqueous palladium chloride in presence of cupric chloride catalyst Depending upon the structure of alkene, different carbonyl compounds are obtained by the reductive ozonolysis. Carbonyls are obtained by the hyciration of alkynes or by alkaline hydrolysis of gem halides. Reduction of acid chloride with hydrogen in presence of Lindlar’s catalyst to give aldehydes is called Rosenmund reduction. Ketones cannot be prepared by this method. Reduction of alkyl cyanide with stannous chloride and HC! followed by hydrolysis to give aldehydes is called Stephen reaction. Ketones cannot be prepared by this method. Carbonyl compounds are highly polar and boil at high temperatures than the weakly polar ethers of comparable molar masses. Lower carbonyls are more soluble in water due to hydrogen bonding. Due to larger size of hydrophobic alkyl group, higher carbonyls are insoluble in water. ns of carbonyl compounds are nucleophilic addition reactions. Aldehydes are more reactive than ketones, Aliphatic aldehydes are more reactive than aromatic aldehydes, ‘Ammonia reacts with aldehydes and Ketones to form imines. Formaldehyde forms urotropine swith ammonia. Carbonyl compounds condense with derivatives of ammonia, hydroxylamine, hydrazine, phenyl-hydrazine, 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazine, semicarbazide to form the corresponding coximes, hydrazones, phenyl hydrazones, 2,4-dinitrophenyl hydrazones and semicarbazones. ‘Carbonyl compounds react with PCI, or thionyl chloride to give gem dihalides. Aldehydes are reduced to primary alcohols and ketones (0 secondary alcohols with LiATH. NaBH, or by catalytic hydrogenation ‘Carbonyl group is reduced to methylene group, by Clemmensen reduction or by Wolff - Kishner reduction, thereby, carbonyl compounds are reduced to alkanes, Aldehydes are easily oxidised to carboxylic acids by even mild oxidising agents like Tollen’s reagent, Fehling’s reagent and Benedict’s solution. These oxidation reactions are used to distinguish aldehydes from ketones. ‘The hydrogens in carbonyl compounds are acidic. Carbonyl compounds having at least ‘one ct-hydrogen, undergo Aldol condensation, Aldehydes with no a-hydrogen atom on reaction with concentrated alkali undergo Cannizzaro reaction in which aldehyde undergoes disproportionation to give alcohol and salt of carboxylic acid. ‘Compounds containing methyl keto group or which form these on treatment with halogens give haloform reaction, Aromatic carbonyl compounds undergo electrophilic substitution reactions also. Carbonyl ‘group present in aromatic ring is meta directing and deactivating ‘Acetaldehyde undergoes trimerisation or tetramerisation in presence of concentrated sulphuric acid to form paraldehyde and metaldehyde respectively, ‘Condensation polymer of formaldehyde and phenol is Bakelite, Condensation polymer of formaldehyde and urea is formaldehyde-urea, Condensation product of formaldehyde and ammonia is urotro Benzaldehyde can be obtained by the oxidation of toluene with chromyl chloride followed by hydrolysis. This is called Etard reaction Benzaldehyde is prepared from benzene by Gattermann—Koch reaction, ‘Cinnamic acid is obtained from benzaldehyde by Perkin reaction using anhydride of aliphatic acid. Acetophenone is the simplest aromatic ketone, ‘Acetophenone is prepared by the Friedel-Craft’s acetylation on benzene or by the oxidation of ethylbenzene in the presence of manganese acetate.
