Create a study sheet for organic functional groups. Would be so grateful if someone could check what I have and add anything else that comes to mind:

Create a study sheet for organic functional groups. Would be so grateful if someone could check what I have and add anything else that comes to mind:

1. Alcohols: R-OH

Polar, hydrogen bond so are very soluble in water.

Protonate with acid. -OH becomes good leaving group by conjugate base

Deprotonate with Strong Base

2. Ether: R-O-R

Slightly polar, low reactivity

Acts as Lewis Base in Strong Acid

3. Amine: R-N-H2 (primary, secondary, tertiary)

Base.

Polar, hydrogen bond so are very soluble in water.

If 4th bond becomes a positively charged intermediate

4. Ester: RCOOR

CH4 is weakly acidic, deprotonate with Strong Base.

Weakly electrophilic Carbonyl Carbon, requires Strong Nucleophile to attack

5. Amide RCONH2

Can Hydrogen Bond, but are only water-soluble if small amides

6. Hemiacetal/hemiketal:

Polar, soluble in water. Not electrophilic.

7. Mesyl/Tosyl Groups:

Nonpolar

Basic

Good Nucleophiles

8. Hydrazine/hydrozone: N-N or R-N-N

Basic

Solvent ?

Good Nucleophiles.

Good Lewis Bases

9. Nitrile: CN-

Slightly polar

Strong Nucleophile

10. Epoxide:

Slightly polar

Basic

11. enamine/imine:

Slightly Polar

Basic

Good Nucleophile

12. Nitro: RNO2

Polar

Good Electrophile and Nucleophile

13. Nitroso: N-O

Polar

Strong Nucleophile and base

14. Oxime:

Very Polar, Hydrogen bonding, very soluble in water

Some uncharged organic compounds have so many polar functional groups that they are somewhat soluble in water. During an extraction such compounds reside partially in the water layer and partially in the water-immiscible organic layer. Why does the addition of a salt (like NaCl) to the aqueous phase often diminish the solubility of the polar organic (uncharged) compounds in the aqueous phase (the process is referred to as “salting out”)? Please explain.
