Syntheses of the Aldehydes and Ketones(Recap?) From Alcohols (Ch 11) Secondary alcohols are readily oxidized to ketones by Chromic acid (or KmnO4). Na2Cr2O7 H2S04 borneol camphor Complicated ketones can be made by the oxidation of alcohols,which in turn can be made from reaction of a Grignard and an aldehyde OH Na2Cr207 0 R-MgBr R-C-H- R'-C-H 分 H2S04 R'-C-R Aldehydes are made from the oxidation of primary alcohols.This oxidation needs to be done carefully to avoid overoxidation to carboxylic acids.

Ozonolysis(Ch 8) Alkenes can be cleaved by ozone(followed by a mild reduction)to generate aldehydes and/or ketones. CH3 (1)03 (2)CH3SCH3 Phenyl Ketones and Aldehydes(Ch 17) Friedal Crafts acylation is an excellent method for the preparation of alkyl aryl ketones. 02N para-nitrobenzophenone The Gatterman-Koch reaction produces benzaldehyde systems.

Hydration of Alkynes(Ch 9) Hydration of alkynes can either be achieved with Markovnikov (acid and mercury(II)catalyzed reaction)or anti- Markovnikov (hydroboration-oxidation)regiochemistry.

Other Syntheses of Aldehydes and Ketones Use of 1,3-Dithiane Dithiane has relatively acidic hydrogens located between the two sulfur atoms,and these can be removed by a strong base. The anion is stabilized by the electron withdrawing effect of the highly polarizable sulfur atoms. CaHg-Li +C4H10 H The dithiane anion can react as a nucleophile with primary alkyl halides,and this alkylation generates a thioacetal H",HgCl 0 R一X H20 R H The hydrolysis of a thioacetal generates an aldehyde. Alternatively,the thioacetal can be further deprotonated and reacted with another(different)alkyl halide to generate a new thioacetal with two alkyl substituents.On hydrolysis,this thioacetal produces a ketone.

This is a good route for the construction of unsymmetrical ketones. Eg (1)BuLi (1)BuLi H*,HgCl2 (2)PhCH,Br (2)CHaBr H2O HaC CH2Ph H CH2Ph CH2Ph The dithiane can be thought of as a"masked"carbonyl group. Ketones from Carboxylic Acids Organolithium reagents are very reactive towards carbonyl compounds. So much so,that they even attack the lithium salts of carboxylate anions. These dianions can then be protonated,which generates hydrates,which then lose water and produce ketones E.g OH R-C-OH LiOH R-C-0-+Li R'-Li HO+ H20 -O-Li+ OH R-C-R carboxylic acid lithium carboxylate dianion hydrate ketone 92的rn6中enn Chl8 Ketones and Aldehydes (landscape) Page 10
