HI>HBr>HCl

- wherein

ROR'+HX\rightarrow ROH+R'X

 

 

Anhydride formation from carboxylic acid -

–  Except formic acid, lower monocarboxylic acid on heating with dehydrating agent forms anhydrides.

–  It involves cleavage of  C - OH bond.

RCOOH\overset{P_{2}O_{5}}\rightarrow (RCO)_{2}O

 

 ??????

 

Physical properties of carboxylic acids -

–  Boiling point increases with increasing molecular mass due to increase in Van Der Waals force.

–  Solubility decreases with increasing number of carbon atom due to increasing hydrophobic nature of the alkyl chain.

Acidic and basic hydrolysis of Esters -

Acidic hydrolysis gives carboxylic acid directly. Basic hydrolysis gives carboxylates which acidify to give the carboxylic acid.

- wherein
