Nomenclature (Simple)anhydrides are simply named by replacing the -acid suffix of the parent carboxylic acids with the word anhydride. E.g. 09 09 HgC-C-O-C-CHs CHgCH2-C-O-C-CF3 ethanoic anhydride trifluoroethanoic propanoic anhydride Mixed anhydrides that consist of two different acid derived parts are named using the names of the two individual acids,with the highest priority acid being the first name. Nomenclature of Multifunctional Compounds We have now covered a wide variety of functional groups,and 'real'molecules contain many of these different functionalities. How do we go about correctly naming these molecules? In choosing the principal group for the root name,the following priorities are observed. Acid ester amide nitrile aldehyde ketone alcohol amine alkene alkyne alkane ethers>halides Ch21 Carboxylic acid Derivatives(landscape) Page 11

Interconversion of Acid Derivatives Acid derivatives undergo a variety of reactions under both acidic and basic conditions,and almost all involve nucleophilic acyl substitution. There are a lot of transformations,but only one general mechanism: + Y: R Nuc Nuc nucleophilic attack tetrahedral intermediate products leaving group The nucleophile adds to the carbonyl group generating a tetrahedral intermediate,which in turn expels the leaving group whilst reforming the carbonyl C=O double bond. The overall reaction is a substitution,not an addition. This is another example of an addition-elimination mechanism. By varying the nucleophile and leaving group,we can cover almost every reaction in this chapter. In general,more reactive acid derivatives are converted into less reactive acid derivatives So this requires an understanding of which derivatives are more reactive than others.

Reactivity of Acid Derivatives The carboxylic acid derivatives vary greatly in their reactivities with nucleophiles For example acid chlorides hydrolyze in moist air,whereas amides hydrolyze slowly even in boiling alkaline water. H20 0 R-C-CI R-C-OH QUICK R&oea NaOH,heat 0 R-C-OH The reactivity depends on both the structure of the derivative and also on the nature of the nucleophile.

This order also correlates to the basicity of the leaving group. (Strong bases make poor leaving groups).
