Students have asked these similar questions
When an α-hydroxy amide is treated with Br2 in aqueous NaOH under Hofmann rearrangement conditions, loss of CO2 occurs and a chain-shortened aldehyde is formed. The mechanism involves the following steps:
Base abstracts an acidic amide proton, yielding amide anion 1;
The amide anion reacts with bromine in an α-substitution reaction to give N-bromoamide 2.
Abstraction of the remaining amide proton by base gives a resonance-stabilized bromoamide anion 3;
Rearrangement occurs to yield isocyanate 4;
Water adds to the isocyanate to yield carbamic acid 5;
Elimination of CO2 yields carbinolamine 6;
Following proton transfer, expulsion of ammonia yields the final product aldehyde.
Write out the mechanism
and then draw the structures of bromoamide anion 3 and amide anion 1.
The reagent diisobutylaluminum hydride (DIBALH) reduces esters to aldehydes. When nitriles are treated with DIBALH followed by mild acid hydrolysis, the product is also an aldehyde. Propose a mechanism for this reduction.
