Organic Chemistry Chapter 7 - Resonance
2
Electron Delocalization and Resonance Localized electrons = restricted to a particular region Delocalized electrons do not belong to a single atom or exclusively to a bond between 2 atoms
3
Benzene C 6 H 6 –Rapid Equilibrium between 2 structures –Proposed by Fredrich Kekule (1865 German chemist) Kekule Structure Rapid Equilibrium
4
* Kekule’s Dream
5
Kekule Structures of Benzene were accepted in the 1930’s when X-ray studies showed ALL SIX C-H bonds equal and ALL SIX C-C bonds equal! Benzene Structure
6
Each C is sp 2 hybridized Each C has an unhybridized p orbital perpendicular to the plane of the ring The 6 p orbitals overlap to form a cloud Bonding in Benzene
7
A compound with delocalized e - is said to have resonance –resonance contributor –resonance structure –contributing resonance structure Resonance Hybrid
8
Benzene –contributing resonance structures Resonance Hybrid
9
Drawing resonance hybrids 1)Only e - move (not atoms) 2)Only and non-bonding e - move 3)Total # e - stays same (as does unpaired e - ) Resonance Hybrids
10
e - can be moved only by… e - move toward + or toward bond Resonance Hybrids
11
e - can be moved only by… Nonbonding pair e - toward a bond Resonance Hybrids
12
e - can be moved only by… Nonbonding single e - toward a bond Resonance Hybrids

16
What makes a Resonance Structure Have Decreased Stability? –1) an atom with an incomplete octet –2) a negative charge that is not on the most electronegative atom –3) a positive charge not on the most electropositive atom –4) charge separation
17
Examples To Examine B is less stable than A Equal Stability
18
1) The greater the predicted stability of a resonance contributor, the more it contributes to the resonance hybrid. 2) The greater the number of relatively stable resonance contributors, the greater the resonance energy. 3) The more nearly equivalent the resonance contributors, the greater the resonance energy. Resonance Energy
19
The more nearly equivalent the resonance contributors, the greater the resonance energy
20
Stability of Dienes
21
Stability of butadiene
22
Butadiene – Example
23
Allylic cations have delocalized e - They are more stable due to resonance contributors: Allylic Cations
24
Benzylic cations have delocalized e - They are more stable due to resonance contributors: Benzylic Cations
25
* Stability of Cations
26
Because of the allyl and benzyl cations and radicals are more stable, some products can be formed easier. Consequences Mechanisms Mechanisms Mechanisms Look at how conjugation affects reactions
27
Carboxylic acids are stronger acids than alcohols due to resonance effects Effects on pK a
28
Why is this alcohol as acidic as it is? –-OH is on an sp 2 hybridized C –In phenol, some resonance contributors have a + charge on O –3 of phenol’s structures have separated charges Phenol
29
Molecular Orbital Theory can also help explain increased stability READ THROUGH THIS SECTION OF THE BOOK Molecular Orbital Theory

Thermodynamic vs. Kinetic Control If the kinetic product and thermodynamic product differ, the major product will depend on reaction conditions. If carried out at mild (low-temp) conditions, the reaction will be irreversible and the kinetic product will be favored. If carried out at sufficiently vigorous (hi-temp) conditions, the reaction will be reversible and the thermodynamic product will be favored.
31
Thermodynamic vs. Kinetic Control Kinetic product and thermodynamic product: Formed fastest Most stable
32
Thermodynamic vs. Kinetic Control Reaction conditions control products! Kinetic product – low temp Thermodynamic product – high temp
33
Diels-Alder Reaction This reaction makes new carbon carbon bonds Uses a conjugated diene and a dienophile Otto Diels Kiel University Kiel Kurt Alder Cologne University Cologne
34
Diels-Alder Reaction Electron withdrawing groups (O or N) increases the reactivity of the dienophile and increase the reactivity acts as an electrophile Otto Diels Kiel University Kiel Kurt Alder Cologne University Cologne
35
Diels-Alder Reaction 1,4 addition to a conjugated diene Otto Diels Kiel University Kiel Kurt Alder Cologne University Cologne
36
Diels-Alder Stereochemistry If a chiral center is created, equal amounts of R, S produced (racemic) Otto Diels Kiel University Kiel Kurt Alder Cologne University Cologne
37
Diels-Alder Stereochemistry Stereospecific: cis dienophile remains cis –trans dienophile remains trans Otto Diels Kiel University Kiel Kurt Alder Cologne University Cologne
38
Diels-Alder Examples Dienophiles can also be C triple bond C Otto Diels Kiel University Kiel Kurt Alder Cologne University Cologne
39
Bicycloalkanes Nomenclature –parent is the alkane of the same number of carbons as are in two rings –number from a bridgehead, along longest bridge back to the bridgehead, then along the next longest bridge, etc. –show the lengths of bridges in brackets, from longest to shortest 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
