Spectral properties of Aldehydes and Ketones I Spectra of Aldehydes and Ketones Aldehydes and ketones have strong carbonyl stretching frequencies in the 1665-1780 cm -1 region Vibrations of the - bond in an aldehyde gives two weak but characteristic bands at 2700-2775 and 2820-2900 cm -1 onjugation shifts the I frequency about 40 cm -1 lower because the carbonyl has less double bond character Single bonds stretch more easily than double bonds 16

NM Spectra of Aldehydes and Ketones 13 NM Spectra Aldehyde and ketone carbonyl carbons give characteristic signals at δ 180-220 ppm 1 NM Spectra Aldehyde protons give sharp signals at δ 9-12 ppm Protons on the α carbon of aldehydes or ketones generally appear at δ 2.0-2.4 18

Preparation of Aldehydes Aldehydes by xidation of 1 o Alcohols Primary alcohols are oxidized to aldehydes by P 20

xidation with hromic xide and Pyridine r 3. N 2 l 2 aldehydes do not oxidize further 22

Preparation of Ketones Ketones from Alkenes, Alkynes,Arenes, and 2 o Alcohols 1) Ketones can be made from alkenes by ozonolysis 23

2) Aromatic ketones can be made by Friedel-rafts Acylation. 3) Ketones can be made from 2 o alcohols by oxidation 24

4) Ketones from Alkynes Markovnikov hydration of an alkyne initially yields a vinyl alcohol (enol) which then rearranges rapidly to a ketone (keto) 25

elative eactivity: Aldehydes versus Ketones Aldehydes are generally more reactive than ketones a ketone an aldehyde formaldehyde Due to Increasing reactivity 1)The tetrahedral carbon resulting from addition to an aldehyde is less sterically hindered than the tetrahedral carbon resulting from addition to a ketone 29

sp2 less hindered sp3, more hindered 3 2 + 2 3 2) Aldehyde carbonyl groups are more electron deficient because they have only one electron-donating group attached to the carbonyl carbon 30

eductive Amination Aldehydes and ketones react with ammonia, primary or secondary amines to yield imines or iminium ions The imines and iminium ions can then be reduced to new primary, secondary or tertiary amines, respectively 92

eductive amination is a good method for preparation of amines 95

Aldehydes form hydrates in water An aldehyde hydrate formation is the reason that aldehyde are easily oxidize to carboxylic acid. 97

β-dicarbonyl compounds exist primarily in the enol form The enol is more stable because it has a conjugated pi system and because of stabilization of the enol through hydrogen bonding 104
