Carboxylic acids do not give the.characteristic reactions of carbonyl group. Explain.

Acids do not give the characteristic reaction of (C=0) group because of

Assertion : Carboxylic acids contain a carbonyl group but do not give characteristic reaction of the carbonyl group. Reason : The electrophilicity of the carbonyl carbon is more in carbocylic acids than in aldehydes and ketones.

Carboxylic acid group does not give the usual addition and elimination reactions of aldehydes and ketones because

Aldehydes, Ketones and Carboxylic acids are Carbonyl compounds.Write the reactions of carboxylic acid with the following reagents. (Write the chemical equations). Chlorine in presence of small amount of red phosphorous.

Carboxylic acid group can be easily tested by using

Carboxylic acids, esters and amides do not give the properties of ketones. It is due to

Statement 1 : Carboxylic acids (R-overset(O)overset(||)C-OH) have a carbonyl group but it does not give the test of carbonyl group. Statement 2 : Due to resonance, the double bond character of group is greatly reduced

Why the aromatic carboxylic acids do not undergo Friedel-Crafts reaction?

Which of the following statements regarding carbonyl group is not correct? The carbon atom of the carbonyl group in aldehydes and ketones is sp^(2) hybridised, The carbon atom of the carbonyl group in the transition state formed during the addition reaction across it sp^(3) hybridised, An aryl group stabilizes an aldehyde more than the transition state, The aryl group in aromatic aldehydes speeds up the addition reaction across the carbonyl group

In the Cannizzaro reaction 2 Ph+CHO overset(overset(Θ)OH) rarr Ph-CH_2 OH+PhCOO the slowest step is : the attack of -OH at the carbonyl group, the transfer of hydride ion to the carboxylic acid, the abstraction of proton from the carboxylic acid, the deprotonation of the Ph CH_2 OH
