CH. 22 - CONDENSATION CHEMISTRY
CONCEPT: CONDENSATION REACTIONS
A condensation reaction spontaneously combines two or more molecules with the loss of a smaller molecule.
● Instead of just reacting with electophiles, enolates are able to react with themselves to self-condensate
● Obviously, ___________________________ are required for this type of reaction to take place
Example Reactions:
ORGANIC - CLUTCH

CONCEPT: ALDOL CONDENSATION
Via enolates, ketones and aldehydes will react with ___________________ to condensate into ______________
● The final products are called “aldols” because they are part ________________ and part __________________
Mechanism:
1. Form the enolate
2. Nucleophilic attack the other carbonyl (which we will call the electrophile)
3. Protonate the tetrahedral intermediate:
β-hydroxy carbonyls are ______________ to dehydrate than typical alcohols due to __________________________
Many times, we will simply assume that the condensation product dehydrated on its own, without requiring an explanation.

CONCEPT: DIRECTED CONDENSATIONS
When we run condensation reactions with asymmetrical ketones, two enolates may be possible.
● We can use different bases to direct the direction of deprotonation
□ The thermodynamic enolate is the ___ substituted one. Favored by ___________ bases.
□ The kinetic enolate is the ___ substituted one. Favored by ___________ bases.
EXAMPLE: Predict the products of the following self-condensation.

CONCEPT: CROSSED ALDOL
When we run condensation reactions on two different ketones or aldehydes, mixed products are difficult to avoid.
In general, condensation reactions with two different carbonyls work best when one carbonyl is nonenolizable.

CONCEPT: CLAISEN-SCHMIDT REACTION
When a crossed aldol contains an enolizable aldehyde and a ketone, one product does predominate.
● Aldehydes are more susceptible toward nucleophilic addition than ketones, favoring a single enolate.

CONCEPT: CLAISEN CONDENSATION
Via enolates, esters will react with _________________ to condensate into ________________________
Mechanism:
1. Form the enolate
2. Nucleophilic attack the other carbonyl (which we will call the electrophile)
3. Kick out the good leaving group:

CONCEPT: INTRAMOLECULAR CONDENSATION
Dicarbonyl compounds have the ability to self-condensate through cyclization if it will generate a ___ or ___-membered ring.
● When a diketone or dialdehyde self-condensate, the resulting product is called a cyclic enone
● When a diester self-condensates, the resulting product is called a cyclic β-ketoester
□ This is known as a Dieckmann Condensation

CONCEPT: CONJUGATE ADDITION OF ENONES
Once an aldol condensation is completed, an electrophilic carbonyl still remains.
● Enones remain susceptible to nucleophilic attack, however they now have two electrophilic regions:
● Also known as 1,2 vs. 1,4 addition of enones, or nucleophilic addition vs. conjugate addition of carbonyls.

CONCEPT: ROBINSON ANNULATION
1,5-dicarbonyl compounds have the ability to undergo intramolecular self-condensation into 6-membered enones.
● When the 1,5-dicarbonyl is generated via Michael Reaction (enone + enolate), it is called a Robinson Annulation
