Except for strained cyclical derivatives, ethers are fairly unreactive and are often used as solvents in organic reactions.
Cyclic ethers are members of the class of cycloalkanes called heterocycles in which one or more carbon atoms have been replaced by a heteroatom.
Common ethers
AFB QO I 2007/08 12
Cyclic polyethers based on the 1,2-ethanediol unit are called crown ethers. The crown ether, 18-crown-6, contains 18 total atoms and 6 oxygen atoms:
Note that the inside of the ring is electron rich.

Solvent Properties
• Nonpolar solutes dissolve better in ether than in alcohol.
• Ether has large dipole moment, so polar solutes also dissolve.
• Ethers solvate cations.
• Ethers do not react with strong bases. =>

Crown ethers can render salts soluble in organic solvents by chelating the metal cations. This allows reagents such as KMnO4 to act as an oxidizing agent in the organic solvents.
The size of the central cavity can be tailored to selectively bind cations of differing ionic radii.

Three dimensional analogs of crown ethers are polyethers called cryptands. These are highly selective in alkali and other metal cation binding.

The parent alcohol of the alkoxide can be used as the solvent, however other polar solvents are often better, such as DMSO (dimethyl sulfoxide) or HMPA (hexamethylphosphoric triamide).
Williamson Ether Synthesis
AFB QO I 2007/08 26
The intramolecular reaction is usually much faster than the intermolecular reaction. If necessary, the intermolecular reaction can be suppressed by using a high dilution of the haloalcohol.

AFB QO I 2007/08 27
intramolecular Williamson synthesis
AFB QO I 2007/08 28
These rate differences can be explained based on the interplay between strain, entropy, and proximity.
Entropy reduction (due to ring closure) increases with increasing ring size. (Reaction rate decrease with increasing ring size).
Ring strain decreases with increasing ring size. (Reaction rateincrease with increasing ring size).
Transition state strain is reduced in the 2-haloalkoxides because the 2-haloalkoxide is already strained by the proximity of the halide and hydroxyl. (Reaction rate increase for the 2-haloalkoxides).
Ring size controls the speed
15
AFB QO I 2007/08 29
Since the Williamson synthesis is a SN2 substitution reaction, an inversion of configuration occurs at the carbon bearing the leaving group.
The leaving group must be on the opposite side of the molecule from the attacking nucleophile in order for the reaction to occur.
intramolecular Williamson synthesis is stereospecific

Strong nucleophilic acids (HBr, HI) yield haloalkanes when reacted with alcohols.
Strong non-nucleophilic acids yiels ethers when reacted with alcohols.
Synthesis of Ethers:Alcohols and Mineral Acid
AFB QO I 2007/08 34
At higher temperatures, an E2 elimination of water occurs with the subsequent production of alkenes.
Side reactions
18
AFB QO I 2007/08 35
Secondary and tertiary alcohols form ethers through an SN1 reaction with a second molecule of the alcohol trapping the carbocation. The E1 pathway becomes dominate at higher temperatures.
SN1
AFB QO I 2007/08 36
Mixed ethers containing one tertiary and one primary or secondary alcohol can be prepared in the presence of dilute acid. The tertiary carbocation is trapped by the less hindered alcohol.
Asymetric ethers
19
AFB QO I 2007/08 37
By simply disolving a tertiary or secondary haloalkane in an alcohol and waiting until the SN1 process is complete.
Ethers also form by alcoholysis
AFB QO I 2007/08 38
Ethers are usually inert, however the do react slowly with oxygen to form hydroperoxides and peroxides which can decompose explosively.

Oxonium ions from secondary ethers may transform by either SN2 or SN1 reactions, depending upon conditions.
Substitution
AFB QO I 2007/08 44
Esters containing tertiary alkyl groups react in dilute acid to give carbocations which are either trapped (SN1) by good nucleophiles or deprotonated in the absence of good nucleophiles.
Protecting groups
23
AFB QO I 2007/08 45
Because they are readily formed, and equally readily hydrolyzed,tertiary ethers are commonly used as protecting groups during chemical reactions which might otherwise interact with the unprotected alcohol.

Reactions of Oxacyclopropanes
9-9
Nucleophilic ring opening of oxacyclopropanes by SN2 is regioselective and stereospecific.
The driving force for this reaction is the release of ring strain.
Oxacyclopropane can be ring opened by anionic nucleophiles. Because the molecule is symmetric, nucleophilic attack can be at either carbon atom.
24
AFB QO I 2007/08 47
With unsymmetric systems attack will be at the less substituted carbon center. This selectivity is referred to as regioselectivity.
If the ring opens at a stereocenter, inversion is observed.
AFB QO I 2007/08 48
Hydride and organometallic reagents convert strained ethers into alcohols.
LiAlH4 can open the rings of oxacyclopropanes to yield alcohols. (Ordinary ethers do not react)
In unsymmetrical systems, the hydride attacks the less substituted side.
25
AFB QO I 2007/08 49
If the reacting carbon is a stereocenter, inversion is observed.
AFB QO I 2007/08 50
Oxacyclopropanes are sufficiently reactive electrophiles to be attacked by organometallic compounds.
26
AFB QO I 2007/08 51
This acid catalyzed ring opening is both regioselective and stereospecific.
Acid catalyzed oxacyclopropanering opening
AFB QO I 2007/08 52
The acid catalyzed methanolysis of 2,2-dimethyloxacyclopropane is ring opened at the more hindered carbon.
27
AFB QO I 2007/08 53
In the alkyloxonium ion, more positive charge is located on the tertiary carbon than on the primary carbon. This effect counteracts the effect of steric hindrance and the alcohol attacks the tertiary carbon.
Because inversion of configuration occurs during ring opening, free carbocations cannot be involved in the reaction mechanism.

Drugs such as the sulfonamides (sulfa drugs) contain sulfur in their molecular framework:
AFB QO I 2007/08 58
The sulfur analogs of alcohols and ethers are thiols and sulfides.
The IUPAC system calls the sulfur analogs of alcohols, R-SH, thiols. The –SH group in more complicated compounds is referred to as mercapto.

Thiols are less hydrogen bonded and more acidic than alcohols.
Compared to oxygen, sulfur has a large size, diffuse orbitals and a relatively nonpolarized S-H bond.
The boiling points of thiolsare similar to those of the analogous haloalkanes.
Bloiling points
AFB QO I 2007/08 64
Thiols are more acidic than water and can therefore be easily deprotonated by hydroxide and alkoxide ions:

AFB QO I 2007/08 65
The sulfur in thiols and sulfides is more nucleophilic than the oxygen in the analogous compounds.
Thiols and sulfides are readily made through nucleophilic attack by RS- or HS- on haloalkanes:
A large excess of HS- is used to prevent the reaction of the product with the starting halide.
synthesis of thiols
AFB QO I 2007/08 66
Sulfides are prepared by the alkylation of thiols in the presence of base, such as hydroxide.
The nucleophilicity of the generated thiolates is much greater than that of hydroxide which eliminates the competing SN2 substitution by hydroxide ion.

Sulfides can attack haloalkanes to form sulfonium ions.
Sulfonium ions are subject to nucleophilic attack, the leaving group being a sulfide.

Sulfur can expand its valence shell from 8 to 10 or 12 electrons using its available 3d orbitals, allowing oxidation states not available to its oxygen analogs.
Oxidation of thiols with strong oxidizing agents (H2O2, KMnO4) gives the corresponding sulfonicacids:
