1 Carboxylic Acids By: Maggie Ward and Samantha Nason

2 Formula – R-COOH (R is hydrogen or alkyl group) Simplest series: alkanoic acids -oic ending Name counts total number of carbons in longest chain Polar Form hydrogen bonds with each other High melting and boiling points High solubility

3 Most acidic organic compound Weak acids Made from oxidation of alcohols and aldehydes Carboxylic acid + alcohol = ester React with bases to form carboxylate salts Sour taste; strong smell Fatty acids, amino acids, acrylic acids Ex) lemons, grapefruit, limes, sour candy, vinegar
