Acyl Chlorides- Synthesis
Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Synthesis and Reactions 5
Acyl Chlorides - Reactions
•Acyl chlorides are the most reactive acyl compounds and can be used to make any of the other derivatives•Since acyl chlorides are easily made from carboxylic acids they provide a way to synthesize any acyl compound from a carboxylic acid•Acyl chlorides react readily with water, but this is not a synthetically useful reaction
Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Synthesis and Reactions 6
Anhydrides - Synthesis
1) Acid chlorides + carboxylic acids to form mixed or symmetrical anhydrides. It is necessary to use a base such as pyridine
3) Cyclic anhydrides with 5- and 6-membered rings can be synthesized by heating the appropriate diacid
2) Sodium carboxylates + acid chlorides to form anhydrides.

Esters - Synthesis
•Acid catalyzed reaction of alcohols and carboxylic acids to form esters is called Fischer esterification•Fischer esterification is an equilibrium process •Ester formation is favored by use of a large excess of either the alcohol or carboxylic acid and by removal of water.

Carboxylic Acid Derivatives Synthesis and Reactions 12
Esters - Reactions
Hydrolysis: Acids can be acid hydrolyzed to give acid and alcohol.
Transesterifcation: One ester can be converted to another in presence of an alcohol and a catalyst.
Write the mechanism on your own! (start with protonating the carbonyl of the ester; the OCH3 will be the leaving group.)
Saponification: Treatment of ester with strong base. Used mostly to prepare soaps.
