The reactivity ladder

Carboxylic acid derivatives react with nucleophiles in the order acid chloride > acid anhydride > ester ≈ carboxylic acid > amide > carboxylate. Two effects set the order. First, the group on the carbonyl carbon donates its lone pair into the C=O π system: chlorine barely donates, an ester oxygen donates moderately and an amide nitrogen donates strongly, so the amide carbonyl carbon is the least electrophilic. Second, the group must leave: the weaker its conjugate base, the better. Chloride (HCl, pKa about −7) and carboxylate (pKa about 5) leave easily, alkoxide (pKa about 16) less so, and an amide anion (NH₃, pKa about 38) hardly at all. Drawn left to right: acetyl chloride, acetic anhydride, methyl acetate and acetamide.

Addition, then elimination

Nucleophilic acyl substitution goes by addition, then elimination, not by a one-step SN2 at the carbonyl carbon. The nucleophile adds to the carbonyl carbon and the C=O π pair moves onto oxygen, giving a tetrahedral intermediate; the oxygen lone pair then re-forms C=O and the best leaving group departs. A derivative can therefore be turned directly into any derivative below it on the ladder, but not into one above it: an acid chloride gives an anhydride, ester or amide, while an amide does not give an ester or acid chloride by simple exchange. Reactions that release HCl need a base (a second equivalent of amine, triethylamine or aqueous NaOH, as in the Schotten–Baumann method) to stop the nucleophile being protonated. Amines out-compete alcohols for an acylating agent, and anions (phenoxide, alkoxide) out-compete the neutral O–H compounds. A nucleophilic catalyst such as DMAP is first acylated itself, giving an N-acylpyridinium ion that transfers the acyl group to an alcohol far faster than the anhydride could. Di-tert-butyl dicarbonate (Boc₂O) is an anhydride whose leaving group, tert-butyl carbonate, takes a proton and then falls apart into CO₂ and tert-butanol, which is why Boc protection of amines runs to completion.

Hydrolysis in acid and in base

In aqueous base, hydroxide adds to the ester, the alkoxide leaves, and the carboxylic acid formed is deprotonated at once. The carboxylate cannot be attacked again, so saponification goes to completion, consumes one hydroxide per ester plus one for every other acidic group present (a phenol released from an aryl ester, for example), and the free acid appears only when the solution is acidified. The oxygen from hydroxide ends in the carboxylate; the alkoxy oxygen leaves in the alcohol. In aqueous acid, hydronium protonates the carbonyl oxygen, water adds, proton transfers turn the OR group into a neutral alcohol leaving group, and loss of the alcohol and a proton gives the acid. Every step is reversible, so a large excess of water drives the hydrolysis; the same steps run backwards when a hydroxy acid closes to a five-membered lactone, which is favoured because the ring closure is intramolecular. Nitriles are hydrated in strong acid through a nitrilium ion and an imidic acid to the amide. Amides need hot concentrated acid or base; in acid the amine released is protonated to an ammonium ion, which pulls the reaction forward. Shown: methyl benzoate and the benzoate ion it gives in NaOH.

How basic is an amine?

Amine basicity is quoted as the pKa of the conjugate acid, pKaH: the higher the pKaH, the stronger the base, and pKb = 14.00 − pKaH in water. Alkylamines have pKaH about 10–11. Aniline (4.6) is far weaker because its lone pair is delocalised into the ring; pyridine (5.2) holds its lone pair in an sp² orbital with more s character; an amide (about −0.5) is protonated on oxygen, not nitrogen, because the nitrogen lone pair is part of the C=O π system. Pyrrole is not basic at nitrogen at all, since that lone pair is part of its aromatic sextet. Drawn: ethylamine, aniline, pyridine and acetamide. At a given pH, Henderson–Hasselbalch gives the ratio of protonated to free amine: [BH⁺]/[B] = 10^(pKaH − pH).

Making amines cleanly

Alkylating ammonia with an alkyl halide gives mixtures, because each amine formed is at least as nucleophilic as the one before. Three routes avoid this. In the Gabriel synthesis the phthalimide anion (phthalimide pKa about 8.3) is alkylated once by SN2 on a primary or unhindered secondary halide, and hydrazine then releases the primary amine as it closes the six-membered ring of phthalhydrazide. In reductive amination an aldehyde or ketone and an amine form an iminium ion at pH about 5–6, and NaBH₃CN reduces the iminium ion much faster than the carbonyl compound. Reducing an amide with LiAlH₄ turns its C=O into CH₂ and keeps every N-substituent. Quaternary ammonium hydroxides, made by exhaustive methylation, undergo Hofmann elimination by E2 to give mainly the less substituted alkene; with a cyclic amine the first elimination only opens the ring. In the Hinsberg test, benzenesulfonyl chloride converts a primary amine into a sulfonamide whose remaining N–H (pKa about 10–11) dissolves in aqueous NaOH, while a secondary amine gives an insoluble sulfonamide with no N–H. Drawn: phthalimide.

Arenediazonium ions

A primary arylamine with NaNO₂ and HCl at 0–5 °C gives an arenediazonium ion, ArN₂⁺. The nitrosonium ion (NO⁺) nitrosates the amine nitrogen, proton transfers give a diazohydroxide, and loss of water gives the N≡N group. N₂ is an outstanding leaving group, so the diazonium group can be replaced: CuCl, CuBr or CuCN (Sandmeyer) give ArCl, ArBr or ArCN; KI gives ArI; HBF₄ then heat gives ArF; warm aqueous acid gives a phenol; H₃PO₂ replaces it by H. As a weak electrophile the diazonium ion also couples with strongly activated rings to give azo dyes: phenoxides react para to O⁻ (2-naphthoxide at C1), and tertiary arylamines para to nitrogen. A primary arylamine such as aniline attacks through its nitrogen instead, giving a triazene, Ar–NH–N=N–Ar. Alkyl diazonium ions lose N₂ at once, so only aryl diazonium salts are useful intermediates. Drawn: the benzenediazonium ion.

What to carry forward

Read every acyl reaction as addition then elimination, and check it runs down the reactivity ladder. Use the real acid or base of the medium for each proton transfer. Judge amine basicity by where the lone pair is and how well the ammonium ion is stabilised. Make amines by routes that cannot over-alkylate, and treat ArN₂⁺ as an aryl group carrying a superb leaving group.
