The weak p bond breaks as the

tetravalent ( 5 bonds).
 The alkyl group and the H atom bonded to the carbonyl are not
leaving groups. They are not displaced because hydride (H:-)
and alkanides (R:-) are extremely strong bases.
 pKb H:- = -21 and pKb :CH3- = -40! (:CH3- = methide).

Aldehydes and Ketones are Electrophiles
 Aldehydes and ketones are moderately reactive as electrophiles
(electron acceptors) among the carboxylic acid derivatives.

Acidity of Aldehydes and Ketones
 The a-carbon is the carbon bonded to the carbonyl, not the
carbonyl carbon itself.
 Hydrogens bonded to the carbonyl carbon, the a-carbon, the
b-carbon, etc. are not polar and thus are not acidic hydrogens.

The carbonyl H of an
aldehyde is not acidic.
It's pKa is ca. 50.
 The a-hydrogens can be removed by strong bases because the
carbanion that forms is stabilized by resonance with the
adjacent carbonyl oxygen forming an enolate.

Boiling Points and Solubility of Aldehydes and Ketones
 The carbonyl group is strongly polar but does not produce
hydrogen bonding (It has no polar hydrogens). As a result, the
boiling points of aldehydes and ketones are higher than the
nonpolar hydrocarbons and the alkyl halides but lower than
those of alcohols.
 Formaldehyde is a gas at room temperature (b.p. = -21 C) but
heavier aldehydes are liquids. Acetone, the simplest ketone, is
a liquid at room temperature (b.p. = 56 C).
 Lower molecular weight aldehydes and ketones are water
soluble. Acetone, formaldehyde and acetaldehyde are miscible
in water.

In non aqueous media, moderate to strong oxidants become mild,
oxidizing 1° alcohols only as far as the aldehyde.

Carboxylic acids can be reduced to 1° alcohols with LiAlH4, but no
reagent has been found that will stop the reduction at the aldehyde.


Carboxylic acids are difficult to reduce and any reducing agent strong
enough to reduce them, e.g., LiAlH4, will not stop at the aldehyde but
always produces the 1° alcohol.
Several ‘derivatives’ of carboxylic acids can be reduced to aldehydes
under carefully controlled conditions.
Acid chlorides, esters, and nitriles are reduced to aldehydes using
very cold conditions (-78°C) and only 1 equivalent of a mild reducing
agent, ‘diisobutylaluminum hydride’ = DIBAH (usually in toluene).

Acid Chlorides + Lithium Dialkyl Copper (Gilman Reagent):
produces ketones.
The reaction is unique to these two reagents and the mechanism is
uncertain. As with DIBAH for aldehyde reductions, a low temperature (78 C) solvent (ether) is used to prevent further alkyl addition to the
ketone to form an alcohol. (Acid chlorides are very good electrophiles).
Carboxylic acids, esters, anhydrides and amides are not reduced by
diorganocopper reagents. They are not as reactive as acid chlorides.
