Heterocyclic Aromatics
 Heterocyclic
compound: A compound that
contains more than one kind of atom in a ring.
• In organic chemistry, the term refers to a ring with one
or more atoms that differ from carbon.
 Pyridine
and pyrimidine are heterocyclic analogs
of benzene; each is aromatic.

Pyridine
• The nitrogen atom of
pyridine is sp2
hybridized.
• The unshared pair of
electrons lies in an sp2
hybrid orbital and is not
a part of the six pi
electrons of the
aromatic system (the
aromatic sextet).
• Resonance energy of
pyridine is134 kJ (32
kcal)/mol.
21-3
Furan and Pyrrole
• The oxygen atom of furan is sp2 hybridized.
• one unshared pairs of electrons on oxygen lies in an
unhybridized 2p orbital and is a part of the aromatic
sextet.
• The other unshared pair lies in an sp2 hybrid orbital
and is not a part of the aromatic system.
• The resonance energy of furan is 67 kJ (16 kcal)/mol.

Aromatic Hydrocarbon Ions
 Any
neutral, monocyclic, unsaturated
hydrocarbon with an odd number of carbons
must have at least one CH2 group and, therefore,
cannot be aromatic.

Cycloh eptatriene
• Cyclopropene, for example, has the correct number of
pi electrons to be aromatic, 4(0) + 2 = 2, but does not
have a closed loop of 2p orbitals.
21-6
Cyclopropenyl Cation
• If, however, the CH2 group of cyclopropene is
transformed into a CH+ group in which carbon is sp2
hybridized and has a vacant 2p orbital, the overlap of
orbitals is continuous and the cation is aromatic.

• If planar cyclopentadienyl cation were to exist, it would
have 4 pi electrons and be antiaromatic.
• Note that we can draw five equivalent contributing
structures for the cyclopentadienyl cation. Yet this
cation is not aromatic because it has only 4 pi
electrons.
21-9
Cyclopentadienyl Anion, C5H5 To
convert cyclopentadiene to an aromatic ion, it
is necessary to convert the CH2 group to a CH
group in which carbon becomes sp2 hybridized
and has 2 electrons in its unhybridized 2p orbital.

from water-insoluble

Acidity of Phenols (Resonance)
• The greater acidity of phenols compared with alcohols
is due to the greater stability of the phenoxide ion
relative to an alkoxide ion.

Synthesis: Alkyl-Aryl Ethers
 Alkyl-aryl
ethers can be prepared by the
Williamson ether synthesis:
• but only using phenoxide salts and haloalkanes.
• haloarenes cannot be used because they are
unreactive to SN2 reactions.

Benzylic Oxidation
 Benzene
is unaffected by strong oxidizing agents
such as H2CrO4 and KMnO4
• Halogen and nitro substituents are also unaffected by
these reagents.
• An alkyl group with at least one hydrogen on its
benzylic carbon is oxidized to a carboxyl group.

Synthesis, Protecting Group: Benzyl Ethers
 The
value of benzyl ethers is as protecting
groups for the OH groups of alcohols and
phenols.
• To carry out hydroboration/oxidation of this alkene,
the phenolic -OH must first be protected; it is acidic
enough to react with BH3 and destroy the reagent.
