•The longest chain must contain the carboxyl group.
•The carboxyl group is at the terminal, therefore the carbon of the carboxyl group is not numbered.
One COOH – carboxyl group is at one end Two COOH – carboxyl groups are at both ends
•Name the compound as alkane, drop ‘e’ in alkane and add ‘oic acid’ (eg: methanoic acid)

Boiling Point
The boiling point of carboxylic acid is higher than an alcohol, a ketone or an aldehyde (with Mr that almost the same) because:
i. it exists as stable dimers that form hydrogen bond.
ii. molecules in dimers are arranged closely packed, therefore the hydrogen bonds are relatively strong.
iii. high energy is needed to overcome the intermolecular forces ,

Solubilitya) Solubility in water
• Carboxylic acids are soluble in water due to the formation of hydrogen bond between the water molecules and carboxylic acid molecules.

• Aromatic carboxylic acids are slightly soluble in water due to the huge aromatic ring.
• Dicarboxylic acids are relatively more soluble since more hydrogen bonds are formed.

Acidity of Carboxylic Acid
• The acidity of carboxylic acid is influenced by:
i. Resonance effect
ii.Inductive effect
![Page 24: Matriculation Chemistry ( Carboxylic Acid )](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042422/546a1828b4af9fb13b8b4583/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)

25
• Carboxylic acids are more acidic due to the resonance stabilisation of the carboxylate ion.
• The electrons in carboxylate ion are delocalised between two oxygen atoms, whereas in phenoxide ion, the electrons are delocalized in the benzene ring.
• The C=O group in carboxylic acid is a electron-withdrawing group which reduce the electron density of –OH, therefore the –OH bond becomes weaker.
• Thus H+ is easily donated and carboxylic acid is more acidic than phenol.
![Page 26: Matriculation Chemistry ( Carboxylic Acid )](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042422/546a1828b4af9fb13b8b4583/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)

28
Inductive Effect
An electron withdrawing group (deactivating group)
that attached to a carboxylate ion will
delocalise the negative charge, thereby stabilises the carboxylate ion and
increases acidity.
An electron donating group, (activating group)
will destabilise the carboxylate ion and decreases acidity.

29
i. The inductive effect electron-withdrawing group in the compound
• electron-withdrawing groups (e.g –NO2 ,-F,-Cl,-Br, -I ) reduce the electron density of –O H.
• Thus the O-H bond becomes weaker and H+ can be easily released.
• The compound is said to be more acidic Electron- withdrawing group increases the acidity.
![Page 30: Matriculation Chemistry ( Carboxylic Acid )](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042422/546a1828b4af9fb13b8b4583/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
30
• Example:
CH3CHCl-COOH and CH3CH2COOH
• Cl is an electron-withdrawing groups, therefore reduce the electron density of –OH.
• Thus the O-H bond becomes weaker and H+ can be easily released.
• Acidity :
– CH3CHCl-COOH > CH3CH2COOH
• Electron-withdrawing groups increase the acidity.
![Page 31: Matriculation Chemistry ( Carboxylic Acid )](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042422/546a1828b4af9fb13b8b4583/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
31
• Example:CH3CHF-COOH and CH3CHCl-COOH
• Both F and Cl are electron-attracting group.
• The electronegativity of F > Cl
• The electron density of –OH in CH3CHF-COOH is less, thus the –OH bond is weaker than in CH3CHCl-COOH. Therefore, H+ is easily donated.
• Acidity : CH3CHF-COOH > CH3CHCl-COOH
ii) The electronegativity of electron-withdrawing group in the compound
![Page 32: Matriculation Chemistry ( Carboxylic Acid )](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042422/546a1828b4af9fb13b8b4583/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
32
• Example:
CH3C(Cl)2-COOH and CH3CHCl-COOH
• CH3C(Cl)2-COOH contains 2 Cl atoms that make the bond of –OH weaker than CH3CHCl-COOH (with only one Cl atom). Thus, H+ is easily donated.
• Acidity : CH3C(Cl)2-COOH > CH3CHCl-COOH
iii) Number of electron-attracting group in the compound.
![Page 33: Matriculation Chemistry ( Carboxylic Acid )](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042422/546a1828b4af9fb13b8b4583/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
33
• Example:
CH3CH2CH(Cl)COOH and CH2(Cl)CH2CH2COOH
• The distance between Cl atom and carboxyl group in CH3CH2CHCl-COOH is nearer compare to in CH2ClCH2CH2-COOH.
• The –OH bond in CH3CH2CH(Cl)COOH is weaker than in CH2ClCH2CH2-COOH, so H+ is easily donated.
• Acidity :
CH3CH2CH(Cl)COOH > CH2(Cl)CH2CH2COOH
iv) The position of electron-attracting group
![Page 34: Matriculation Chemistry ( Carboxylic Acid )](https://reader034.vdocuments.mx/reader034/viewer/2022042422/546a1828b4af9fb13b8b4583/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
34
• Example:CH3COOH and CH3CH2COOH
• -R is an electron –releasing group.
• The size of –R group in CH3CH2COOH is larger than in CH3COOH, so CH3CH2- is a stronger releasing group than CH3-.
• The electron density of –OH in CH3CH2COOH increases and H+ is difficult to be donated.
Electron-releasing groups reduce the acidity of a carboxylic acid.
(v ) The inductive effect of electron- releasing (electron-donating) group in the compound

• The reactivity of a carboxylic acid derivative depends on the basicity of the substituent (leaving group) that
attached to the acyl group
• The less basic the substituent, the more reactive the carboxylic acid derivative.

ACYL CHLORIDE
• Acyl chloride is the most reactive because of its
electropositive carbonyl group is attach to the
electronegative Cl atom (which is a releasing group).

65
ANHYDRIDE ACID
• Anhydride acid is more reactive than ester and amide because the carboxyl group of anhydride is attached to the carbonyl carbon.
• This makes the carbonyl carbon becomes more electropositive and can be easily attack by nucleophile.

ESTER
• Ester is less reactive towards nucleophile because the delocalization of electron makes the positive charge of carbon can be shifted to oxygen.
• That makes the carbonyl carbon less electropositive.

67
AMIDE
• Amide is the least reactive because, NH2 group is an electron-donating group that makes the carbonyl less electropositive.
• The resonance structure of amide shows that the carbonyl carbon is not electropositive.
