Hi! My professor said that an internal proton transfer between the alcohol and chromate can’t happen in this mechanism because the distance between them is too small-it’s done by the solvent instead. Just what he said when we all used your mechanism on our homework’s and marked us wrong.

Very very good video. I'm amazed with how much I've learned, thank you very much. I have a question. On the PCC reaction, when the alcohol electrons attack the Chromium atom, why do the Pi electrons go back to its Oxygen, instead of the Cl atom being released? At first i thought resonance might be the molecules first choice (because its weaker and it would rather move its electrons around than lose an atom (PS: i don't know if its weaker)) , but later on, those same electrons are able to push the Chloride atom out.

@Leah4sci6 жыл бұрын
2 things to keep in mind here. 1- the pi electrons are always resonating 2- the goal is to find the most sensible next step - ie what is natural and stable. a pi bond in resonance will be easily kicked off. It's when the pi bond forces itself to reform as the electrons come back out that we kick out something else. You'll see this a lot in carbonyl reactions. TCAI intermediate and then pi reforms to kick out a leaving group

The periodic table shows you valence electrons native to the atom. However, each atom will attempt to reach a complete octet via donation, accepting, or bonding

I believe any step is reversible, under the right conditions. And yes, manganic acid would be a by-product of this reaction.

What if you wanted to get just an aldehyde without it then becoming a carboxylic acid? Would you have to interrupt the reaction somehow? I'm a bit confused because we're doing retrosynthetic analysis in class, and we're being taught that we can use chromic acid to produce an aldehyde, and that that aldehyde can then be used with a grignard reagent to produce an alcohol. But how would you stop the aldehyde from becoming a carboxylic acid?
@miguelhernandezgonzalez93055 жыл бұрын
The only way to not further oxidize and stop at the aldehyde is to use PCC/Ch2Cl2. That's it purpose. The H2CrO4 will always further oxidize the primary alcohol into a carboxylic acid.
@Leah4sci9 ай бұрын
PCC is a milder oxidizing agent that will oxidize a primary alcohol to an aldehyde without going all the way to a carboxylic acid

@aminebelkacem96613 жыл бұрын
there is actually one remark , In PCC mechanism : why Cl- grabe the proton over attacking the carbon as a nucleophilic substitution while the (HCrO4)- would be a good leaving group as you said thank you for your efforts
@Leah4sci3 жыл бұрын
That’s a really great question! Having the chloride attack the carbon would cause the electrons in the carbon-oxygen bond to be newly deposited on the oxygen as a lone pair. This forms a negatively charged oxygen that is not likely to exist in the acidic medium of this reaction. Furthermore, chloride is a better base than nucleophile.

The chromic acid reagent is regenerated by the chromate ester when the Cr-O bond is cleaved. This happens at the same point in time that the alcohol is oxidized. See 3:30 in the video.

@Leah4sci3 жыл бұрын
Check out my explanation at 1:53. Because this reaction is happening in an acidic solution, we cannot collapse a pi bond onto an oxygen that is deprotonated. This would result in a negatively charged oxygen that cannot exist in an acidic medium.
