oxidation, aldehydes, primary, reflux, acidified K2Cr2O7

2
New cards

Forming carboxylic acids
2. H__ of n__ w/ d__ a__/alkali (-CN → -COOH)
> dilute acid:
>> nitrile + __ + __ → c__ a__ + N__

hydrolysis, nitrile, dilute acid, HCl, H2O, carboxylic acid, NH4Cl

3
New cards

Forming carboxylic acids
2. Hydrolysis of n__ w/ dilute acid/a__ (-CN → -COOH)
> dilute alkali:
>> nitrile + N__ + __ → s__ c__ (COO-__) + N__
>> further a__ → c__ a__

nitriles, alkali, NaOH, H2O, sodium carboxylate, Na+, NH3, acidification, carboxylic acid

New cards

Forming carboxylic acids
3. h__ of e__ w/ r__ + dilute a__/alkali
> dilute acid: ester + H__ ←(__(aq))→  c__ a__ + a__
> dilute alkali + a__: ester + N__ → s__ c__ + a__
>> further acidification → c__ a__

hydrolysis, ester, reflux, acid, h2o, H+, carboxylic acid, alcohol, acidification, NaOH, sodium carboxylate, alcohol, carboxylic acid

5
New cards

Reactions of carboxylic acids
1. r__ w/ reactive m__ → metal c__ + __(g)

6
New cards

Reactions of carboxylic acids
3. a__-b__ w/ c__ → metal c__ + __ + C__
4. esterification (c__) w/ r__ + conc. a__
