Concept explainers

Designing a Synthesis

Organic synthesis is a branch of chemical synthesis that involves the planned construction of organic compounds/molecules from smaller units that possess functional groups. Friedrich Wöhler was the first scientist who designed the synthesis of an organic compound, urea from inorganic starting materials silver cyanate with ammonium chloride via a simple, one-step synthesis.

Choose the best explanation for why these compounds are all less than fifteen carbons. A) Aldehydes with longer alkyl chains become increasingly nonpolar and the LDF are stronger than hydrogen bonding with ethanol. B) Ethanol molecules will hydrogen bond with the oxygen of the aldehydes. However, longer alkyl chains interrupt the ability of the aldehyde to hydrogen bond with ethanol which decreases the solubility. C) Ethanol molecules will form strong LDF interactions between the alkyl chains of the aldehydes and the alkyl groups of ethanol. The strong attractions cause the aldehydes to precipitate out of solution. D) When aldehydes chain length increases, the aldehydes have stronger intermolecular force with the small ethanol solvent molecules than the ethanol-ethanol intermolecular force.

Aldehydes and ketones react with one molecule of an alcohol to form compounds called hemiacetals, in which there is one hydroxyl group and one ether-like group. Reaction of a hemiacetal with a second molecule of alcohol gives an acetal and a molecule of water. We study this reaction in Chapter 16. Draw structural formulas for the hemiacetal and acetal formed from these reagents. The stoichiometry of each reaction is given in the problem.
