Aromatic Compounds

Aromatic organic compound or aromatic system is an important class of hydrocarbons under the branch of organic chemistry. Aromatic compounds are also called arenas. The definition of aromatic organic compounds can be stated as a class of organic compounds with a planar cyclic ring of atoms bonded through alternated single and double bonds. Due to these alternating bonds, a peculiar feature termed as ‘resonance’, that is, delocalization of pi electrons or the electrons is shared within the atoms of the ring which are present in the aromatic compounds. The word ‘aromatic’ includes a Greek word ‘aroma’ which means smell, indicating that they were named as such due to the sweet odor they produce. Many well-known flavors such as vanilla, cinnamon, and few scents from flowers are extracted from aromatic compounds. Benzene with chemical formula C6H6 is a very common aromatic compound that contains six atoms of carbon held in the cyclic ring of alternate double bonds. It is also to be noted that not all aromatic compounds contain benzene ring. This can be explained by Huckel’s rule.

The base-promoted rearrangement of an a-haloketone to a carboxylic acid, known as the Favorskii rearrangement, is illustrated by the conversion of 2-chlorocyclohexanone to cyclopentanecarboxylic acid. Jo Han Sow La NaOH, THF O Nat H3O+ OH NaOH, THF The mechanism involves the following 5 steps: -ō cyclopropanone intermediate 1. Abstraction of a proton to form enolate anion 1; 2. Formation of a cyclopropanone intermediate 2 with expulsion of chloride ion; 3. Addition of hydroxide ion to form tetrahedral intermediate 3; 4. Collapse of the tetrahedral intermediate and breakage of the three-membered ring to form carbanion intermediate 4; 5. Proton transfer to form the rearranged carboxylic acid.

A step in a synthesis of PGE1 (prostaglandin E1, alprostadil) is the reaction of a trisubstituted cyclohexene with bromine to form a bromolactone. Propose a mechanism for formation of this bromolactone and account for the observed stereochemistry of each substituent on the cyclohexane ring. Alprostadil is used as a temporary therapy for infants born with congenital heart defects that restrict pulmonary blood flow. It brings about dilation of the ductus arteriosus, which in turn increases blood flow in the lungs and blood oxygenation.

The following bicyclic ketone has two -carbons and three -hydrogens. When this molecule is treated with D2O in the presence of an acid catalyst, only two of the three -hydrogens exchange with deuterium. The -hydrogen at the bridgehead does not exchange. How do you account for the fact that two -hydrogens do exchange but the third does not? You will find it helpful to build models of the enols by which exchange of -hydrogens occurs.
