The carbonyl group is polarized; there is substantial δ+ charge on OK…. Given the polarity of a carbonyl, how will it react
the carbon with a nucleophile??
O +
Nu-
Chapter 16 5 Chapter 16 6
Reactions of Carbonyl Compounds with Nucleophiles Let’s look at a typical nucleophile: Hydride
Carbonyl groups can undergo nucleophilic addition
The nucleophile adds to the δ+ carbon
The π electrons shift to the oxygen Sources of hydride (H-):
The carbon becomes sp3 hybridized and therefore tetrahedral
Hydride ions and carbanions are two examples of nucleophiles that react with the
carbonyl carbon
NaBH4 (sodium borohydride)
LiAlH4 (lithium aluminum hydride)
O OH
1, NaBH4, ether
The formation of a tetrahedral intermediate is the first step in H H
many of the mechanisms you’ll see in this chapter (and others 2. H3O+ H
too!)

Let’s try the hydride addition on an ester: H
O
1, NaBH4, ether nucleophilic acyl substitution
OCH3 no reaction
2. H3O+
The aldehyde generated goes on to be reduced further to the
primary alcohol while the alkoxide gets protonated in the
NaBH4 not a strong enough reducing agent for esters

You’ll see these two mechanism throughout the course with a

number variations on these themes. Important to remember:
many different reactions with essentially the same mechanism.

Reduction of an ester to an aldehyde can be accomplished at low Synthesis of Ketones (review - also see Ch. 8)
temperature using DIBAL-H
As the carbonyl re-forms, an alkoxide leaving group departs Ketones from Alkenes, Arenes, and 2o Alcohols
Ketones can be made from alkenes by ozonolysis

The equilibrum favors a ketone over its hydrate because the The Addition of Hydrogen Cyanide
tetrahedral ketone hydrate is sterically crowded
Aldehydes and ketone react with HCN to form a cyanohydrin
A catalytic amount of cyanide helps to speed the reaction
