The Haloform Reaction

The Haloform Reaction. Under basic conditions, halogenation of a methyl ketone often leads to carbon-carbon bond cleavage. Such cleavage is called the haloform reaction because chloroform, bromoform, or iodoform is one of the products. Example. The Haloform Reaction.

  1. The Haloform Reaction • Under basic conditions, halogenation of a methyl ketone often leads to carbon-carbon bond cleavage. • Such cleavage is called the haloform reaction because chloroform, bromoform, or iodoform is one of the products.

  2. Example

  3. The Haloform Reaction • The haloform reaction is sometimes used as a method for preparing carboxylic acids, but works well only when a single enolate can form.

  4. The Haloform Reaction • The haloform reaction is sometimes used as a method for preparing carboxylic acids, but works well only when a single enolate can form.

  5. Mechanism • First stage of a haloform reaction is substitution of all available hydrogens by halogen atoms.

  6. Formation of the tri-a-halomethyl ketone is followed by its hydroxide-induced cleavage Mechanism

  15. 18.9The Aldol Condensation

  16. O O – •• •• RCH2CH RCHCH OH HOH •• •• •• Some thoughts... + + • A basic solution contains comparable amounts of the aldehyde and its enolate. • Aldehydes undergo nucleophilic addition. • Enolate ions are nucleophiles. • What about nucleophilic addition of enolate to aldehyde? •• – pKa = 16-20 pKa = 16

  17. Aldol Addition • This product is called an "aldol" because it is both an aldehyde and an alcohol

  22. C C O O H C C OH C C Dehydration of Aldol Addition Product • dehydration of -hydroxy aldehyde can becatalyzed by either acids or bases

  23. C C O O H – C C •• OH OH C C Dehydration of Aldol Addition Product • in base, the enolate is formed NaOH

  24. C C O O H – C C •• OH OH C C Dehydration of Aldol Addition Product • the enolate loses hydroxide to form the ,-unsaturated aldehyde NaOH

  25. Aldol reactions of ketones • the equilibrium constant for aldol addition reactions of ketones is usually unfavorable

  26. Intramolecular Aldol Condensation even ketones give good yields of aldol condensation products when the reaction is intramolecular
