  2. KNOCKHARDY PUBLISHING ORGANIC SYNTHESIS INTRODUCTION This Powerpoint show is one of several produced to help students understand selected topics at AS and A2 level Chemistry. It is based on the requirements of the AQA and OCR specifications but is suitable for other examination boards. Individual students may use the material at home for revision purposes or it may be used for classroom teaching with an interactive white board. Accompanying notes on this, and the full range of AS and A2 topics, are available from the KNOCKHARDY SCIENCE WEBSITE at... www.knockhardy.org.uk/sci.htm Navigation is achieved by... either clicking on the grey arrows at the foot of each page or using the left and right arrow keys on the keyboard

  3. ORGANIC SYNTHESIS • CONTENTS • Introduction • Functional groups • Chiral synthesis - introduction • Nucleophilic addition • Nucleophilic substitution • Synthetic methods

  4. ORGANIC SYNTHESIS Involves the preparation of new compounds from others.

  5. ORGANIC SYNTHESIS Involves the preparation of new compounds from others. Many industrial processes involve a multi stage process where functional groups are converted into other functional groups.

Many industrial processes involve a multi stage process where functional groups are converted into other functional groups. When planning a synthetic route, chemists must consider... • the reagents required to convert one functional group into another • the presence of other functional groups - in case also they react

  13. CHIRAL SYNTHESIS Rationale Pharmaceutical synthesis often requires the production of just one optical isomer. This is because... • one optical isomer usually works better than the other • the other optical isomer may cause dangerous side effects • laboratory reactions usually produce both optical isomers • naturally occurring reactions usually produce just one optical isomer

  14. CHIRAL SYNTHESIS Rationale Pharmaceutical synthesis often requires the production of just one optical isomer. This is because... • one optical isomer usually works better than the other • the other optical isomer may cause dangerous side effects • laboratory reactions usually produce both optical isomers • naturally occurring reactions usually produce just one optical isomer Example Aldehydes and ketones undergo nucleophilic addition with cyanide (nitrile) ions; CH3CHO + HCN ——> CH3CH(OH)CN ethanal 2-hydroxypropanenitrile

  16. CHIRAL SYNTHESIS Example Aldehydes and ketones undergo nucleophilic addition with cyanide ions CH3CHO + HCN ——> CH3CH(OH)CN ethanal 2-hydroxypropanenitrile Problem - the C=O bond is planar - the nucleophile can attack from above and below - there is an equal chance of each possibility - a mixture of optically active isomers is produced - only occurs if different groups are attached to the C=O

  26. NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION Problems There are two possible mechanisms SN2 This produces just one optical isomer with reversed optical activity Called SN2 because two species are involved in the rate determining step.

  27. NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION Problems There are two possible mechanisms SN1 This produces a racemic mixture of two optical isomers Called SN1 because one species is involved in the rate determining step.

  28. NUCLEOPHILIC SUBSTITUTION Problems There are two possible mechanisms SN2 This produces just one optical isomer with reversed optical activity Called SN2 because two species are involved in the rate determining step. SN1 This produces a racemic mixture of two optical isomers Called SN1 because one species is involved in the rate determining step.

  29. MODERN SYNTHETIC METHODS The following methods can be used to synthesise a single optical isomer Enzymes / bacteria Chiral chemicals Chiral catalysts Natural chiral molecules
